—E. L. Sabin, in Lippincott’s Magazine

By E. L. Sabin

NEVER rains where Jim is,— People kickin’, whinin’,— He goes round insistin’, “Sun is almost shinin’!”

Never’s hot where Jim is; When the town is sweatin’, He jes’ sets and answers, “Well, I ain’t a-frettin’!”

Never’s cold where Jim is— None of us misdoubt it, Seein’ we’re nigh frozen! He “ain’t thought about it.”

Things that rile up others Never seem to strike him! “Trouble-proof,” I call it,— Wisht that I was like him!
