A Borrower.
A wo nan who really makes me groan Is .the one who lires .next door; She'bor ows everything I own, And then she comes for more. She borrows first a baking tin, She next requires! a "plate,She then comes baik for a dressing sack Or a bar of chocolate. She borrows a car, or a pan, or a fan, Or a couple of Irish potatoes, A cookery book, or a button-hook, Or a tin of the beat tomatoes. She borrows atrap to catch la mouse, And she's likely to ask to borrow the house! •♦Nonsense!" - you seiy. Well, now why not? I told you before she had borrowed a 'lot." — Frank E.Walton.
