| Show ten things ababa can do it can beat any alarm clock over invented for waking a family up in the morning civo it a fair show and it can smash more dishes than the most industrious servant girl in the country it can fall down oftener and with less provocation than the most expert tumbler in the circus ring it can maks more genuine fuss over a simple brass pin than its mothr er would over a broken back it can keep a family in a constant turmoil from morning till night and night till morning without varying the tune it can be relied upon to sleep peacefully all day when its father is down town and cry persistently at when ho is particular sleepy it may be the naughtiest naught iest dirtiest ugliest most fretful baby in the world but you can never make its mother believe it and you had better not try it can bo a charming and model infant when no one is around but when visitors are present it can exhibit more bad temper than both parents together it can brighten up a house better than all tho furniture ever made make sweeter music than the finest orchestra organized fill a larger place in its parents breasts than they knew they had and when it goes away it can cause a greater vacancy and leave a greater blank than all the rest of the world put together |
