THE CHEERFUL THINKER:
I'd iovo ta pay tho. iiidome tax, I'd pay it with delight; I'd pile the stuff in precious staeks—I'd sit up half the night-. I'd try to bo tho first to pay— I'd he it if I could; And then I'd m niy cheerful way— At least, I think I would. Of course, I'd want all inoonlo big* So I could pay tho mere; Tho deeper down I. had to dig The richer stream I'd pour. If I. had coupons piled in racks, With millions to the good, How joyously I'd pay the tax— At least, I think I irou'd. —"Cleveland Plain Dealer."
