A Bar’s Rest

A Bar’s Rest.
147.3

(A Paris restaurant advertises “dinners without music.”
The cuisine is retined, the wines excel- lent,
but It bases its claim to popularity on the absence of music.)

Oho! let us fly to the continong.
For we’ve heard a report from Paree-
They’ve forbidden the band in a restorong.
To kick up its charivari!

We suffered a deal when dining out,
In fact, we may say we grew stck
When forced our very small talk to shout
By makers of prandial musle.

We had to converse at last by signa.
With the dumbshow for “Pass the mustard!”
We mixed our ideas, we mixed our wines,
By the orchestra’s fury flustered!

The fourt of resmen and flow of sout
Are vantahed with Breitmann’s “barty”
When the Addies et horne na more contfal
Theif fortiestino extra hearty

So these that can open an easeful inn octis aknil in the winners;
And where there’s true at length to din,
We’ll banquet without the din neret
