THE KIT-CAT LUNCHEON.

(SEE ILLUSTRATION.) Six little boys and six little girls And twice six cats, in bright array ; Cats black as coals, cats white as pearls, Yellow pussies and pussies in gray ; — All at the Kit-Cat Luncheon I Oh, what a scamper of small furry feet ! Oh, what a chatter of gay boys and girls ! What purrin", what blinking, what laughter sweet! What running, what chasing, what flntter of curls ! All at the Kit-Cat Luncheon ! A table laid as for queens and kings, With ice-cream owlets and lemonade wells ; A dozen saucers of that which blings Joy to Angoras and Tortoise-shells ;— All at the Kit-Cat Luncheon ! A silver collar with lock and key, For the prettiest cat in the long array, (As they lapped their cream, as still as could be); Oh, the Persian kitty who wore it away !— All at the Kit-Cat Luncheon ! « Emma C. Dowd.
