THE POMPOUS MAN.

The pompous man iz generally a snob at home and abroad.

He fills himself up with an east wind and thinks he iz grate just

bekauze he happens tew feel big.

He talks loud and large, but deceives noboddy who will take the trubble

tew meazzure him.

He iz a man ov small _caliber_, but a good deal ov _bore_.

Hiz family looks upon him az the gratest man that the world haz had the

honor to produce lately, and tho he gits snubbed often amungst folks,

lie rekompenses himself bi going home and snubbing hiz family.
