“That’s a jolly looking spider,” Said the Winktum’s little boy; “If only I can catch him, He will make a splendid toy. I think if I can reach so far, I’ll pop him in this little jar.”

The Twirly-fish came out on land To take a promenade, But meeting with the Bubble-boy Grew very much afraid. The Bubble-boy, who lives on land, Had thought to take a swim, But when he saw the Twirly-fish He shook at sight of him.

Picayune, Jan. 22, 1899.
