I allus ride outside with the cabman. I am of humble parentage,
but I have (if you will permit me to say so) the spirit of the
eagle, which chafes when shut up in a four-wheeler, and I feel
much eagler when I'm in the open air. So on the mornin on which
I went to the Mooseum I lit a pipe, and callin a cab, I told the
driver to take me there as quick as his Arabian charger could go.
The driver was under the inflooence of beer and narrerly escaped
runnin over a aged female in the match trade, whereupon I
remonstratid with him. I said, "That poor old woman may be the
only mother of a young man like you." Then throwing considerable
pathos into my voice, I said:

"That poor old woman may be the only mother of a young man like
you. Then throwing considerable pathos into my voice I said,
"You have a mother?"

He said, "You lie!" I got down and called another cab, but said
nothin to this driver about his parents.

The British Mooseum is a magnificent free show for the people.
It is kept open for the benefit of all.

The humble costymonger, who traverses the busy streets with a
cart containin all kinds of vegetables, such as carrots, turnips,
etc, and drawn by a spirited jackass--he can go to the Mooseum
and reap benefits therefrom as well as the lord of high degree.
