THE TRAMP'S EPITAPH. 

 Beneath this stone, forever hid, 



There rests a lifelong prowler. 

 The only work he ever did 



Was when he worked the growler. 



"Ma, I wish I was a fish." 

 "Why, Freddie?" 



' 'Cause then I wouldn't have to be 

 washed when I get up in the morning." 



Have you any use for a boat? If so, 

 why not let me send you a King folding 

 canvas canoe as premium for a club of 

 35 yearly subscriptions to Recreation at 

 $i each. You can get such a club in a few 

 of these long winter evenings, and will 

 never miss the time. Then next summer, 

 with your boat under your arm, you can 

 make a trip that will be a joy to you all 

 your life.
