Text Appearing Before Image:
like Buddha as heordered more champagne. Old Wing Lee, skin-full o bubbles, sat acrost from Dr. Chun,And the two was swappin* maxims, stiff and solemn, one by one. Sayin* nothin, says the goldsmith, Is a womans rarest skill. Birds should sing, remarked the Doctor, but a woman should be still. He who slumbers, says the goldsmith, wit an adder in Is blouseIs more happy than a husband wit a wildcat in is house. Chun was thinkin up an answer, wen a coolie shuffled In,Came and stood beside the Doctors chair and pulled a yeller grin,Then, a-leanin confidential, closer to Is ear he said:** Jim Mok sent me fer the money. She has left the Chamber—dead.Dr. Chun Hing Gay politely raised his glass to old Wing Lee: Lo! the Wise Man loves is neighbors— and preserves tranquillity.8i Sff IQ 1906 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS 0 016 235 134 5 •
