Show PAT'S CRITICISM. Thero's a story that's old, But good if twice told. Of a doctor of limited skill, "Who cured boast and man On tbe "cold water plan," Without tho small help of a pill. On hi? portal of pino Hung an ol'giinl siitn DepiclinK u buauliful rill, And a lake, where a sprite, With evident daligbt. Was sporling in swoet deshabill-. Pat McCarty one day, As he sauntered that way, Stood and gazed at tbat portal of pine, When the doctor with pri.le Slt'ppt'd up to liift side, Saying ' Pat, bow is that for a sign?" "Thero's wart thin?, "says Pat, " Yo'velift out o' that, Which, bo jberi, is quite a miitake, It's trim and it's nale, Bui to make It complate Ye shud havo a foine burd on the laka." "Ahl iodood! pray then tell, To make it look: well. What bird do you thiak it may lack?" Says Fat, "af the same I'to forgottea the namo, But the aong tbat he tings is 'quack 1 quackl' " |
