In Holland, at the Hague, you know,
Well-regulated people go
To the Hotel Ozanimo.
(The spelling I've carnegified;
I often do this on the side).
Here all Creation lives in peace,
And therefore Wonders never Cease!

Prefatory Note
These cartoons were made one by one inmoments of leisure to please a smallboy. They are now reprinted in thehope of pleasing other small boys andgirls. They were originally in color, butfor the present purpose they have beenmade over in black and white by a Japaneseartist, who has given them lifeby occasional quaint touches of his own.

L'Envoi
I write and paint in doggerel
Though all the Muses shriek and yell!
I go serenely on my way
Not caring what such folks may say!
