DON'T AND DO.

"I AM tired of 'don'ts,'" said Margaret B., "As tired of 'don'ts' as I can be, For it's, 'Don't do this,' and, 'Don't do that,' Don't hurt the dog, don't scare the cat. Don't be untidy, and don't be vain. Don't interfere, don't do it again. Don't bite your nails, don't gobble your food. Don't speak so loud—it's dreadfully rude. Don't mumble your words, don't say, 'I won't,' O! all the day long its nothing but don't. Some time or other I hope—don't you?- Some one or other will say, 'Please do.'" —Anon.
