Show REFLECTIONS oF AN OLD GOAT. I've got as good a right to reflect as anj bodj has. A boy Is tho meanest thing that grows, and tho older ho grows tho meaner ho Is. I always consider It a compliment whon n girl with a wad of gum turns v.) her uoso at mo. I don't chow gum mj self. It's an Infamous slander nnd nn Insult In-sult to put mj portrait on a bock beer sign. What ought to bo thero Is tho picture of tomo dirty faced, red nosed old bum that drinks tho stuff. Thcro's nnother thing. I don't smell half as loud as a bear, jet pcoplo who hold their noses whon I'm in sight will ciowd around tho gtlzzly's cago In tho park ami cacklo with delight. I think mighty llttlo of a man that tries to ralso a beard llko tnlno. If naturo had wanted to mako a goat of him It wouldn't havo stood him up on his hind feet and mado him walk that way. If I run the streets everybody throws stones nt mo, and If I tako refuge In tho nllcjs they say I'm looking look-ing for a meal of tin cans. That's why I sometimes nssoclato with tho pollcoman on tho block. |
