He told this one about his good friend. Carney: Car-ney: "A visitor to the city was struck by the beautiful sunset reflected on lake Michigan, and. as long as he bought drinks, Carney listened to his ravings about the glories of nature. The stranger went on in words of color and elegant eloquence, but forgot to buy another. 'Ah you should have seen that sunset,' he said, half closing clos-ing his eyes and mooning. 'Go on,' said Carney. 'You can't tell me anything any-thing about that sunset. The sun sets only about a mile from vhere 1 live' " Chicago Herald. |
