RIDDLE POT Why was Robinson Crusoe fin acrobat?—-Becausc he sat on his chest. What is never felt? —A straw hat. If a clog had a motor car what would the number be? —I\9. When is a tea-pot like an artist? —When it draws well. What is it that walks many miles but has only one foot?—A stocking. Why is an eel like a poet?— Because he is a long fellow.
