A SCCIETY OLD TIMERS ; Where have the old stock phrases gone, The sood old phrase of yester-years? I read the papers off and on But not a s'ilgn of them appears. “Where’s “Tripped the liggt, fantas tic toe” 4 And.“Vgee sma’ hours,” where did it And q;‘o'l‘able groaned”— it’s been an a Since Tehave seen that on a page; ' Or good old “Bountiful repast” I don’t know when I saw that last, Where’s “A packed house” with that elect old audience “Large and select?” The papers used to lay the blame When fires occurred to “Lurid flame.” “Dull, sickening thud” deseribed man's fall; And, say, I miss that most of all. And when they laid him on a bier “His many friends were “Pained to hear.” | The girl with “Alabaster brow” | And “Swan-like throat,” where is she now? And what’s become of ‘“Wealth of ' flowers” That used to deck the “Nuptial bow ers?” I sort o’ miss the old stock phrase s They used in “Good old Haleyon days.” —Maude Wood Henry. - - - W. M. B. U.
