DEDICATION

TO OLD FRIENDS WITH YOUNG HEARTS AND YOUNG HEARTS GROWING OLD.

Dear Friends of our youth, should you happen to look

At the curious things in this curious book,

And should you, with quizzical countenance, ask

The how and the why of our curious task—

We could truly reply

To the query of "why—"

To the smile on your lip, and your questioning eye,

That the work was begun

In a spirit of fun,

To amuse when the work of the daylight was done;
