A POINTED ARGUMENT
Said the pencil to the rubber: " Your manner I deplore. The lines 1 drew were beautiful; I won't draw any more. 1 think it's most impertinent Such drawings to The members of the pencil box All think it a disgrace." Said the paper to the pencil: " 1 think the rubber's right. Your marks were very heavy when They should have been quite lin;ht. I. hope you'll beg his pardon, and Just draw them once again, For when you scratched my tender face He rubbed away the pain."
