For Sale is a Full Page removed from "The Sketch, July 3rd, 1895," the Following Illustrated Poem "Ko-Woon".

     In the land of Japan which is over the seas
     Where people build churches as high as the trees.
     There once lived a maiden, they called her Ko-Woon,
     Who wished she had wings and could fly to the Moon.

     She had beautiful dresses embroidered in blue,
     Long hairpins of silver and little red shoes
     But she she wasn't conteneted this silly Ko-Woon
     Because she'd no wings to fly to the Moon.

    When the storks wemt a-speeding their way to the sea.
    She would say to herself "O! how happy I'd be"
    I'd leave my dear dollies my fans and my swings
    "To fly to the Moon if i only had wings!"

   She had fans and umbrellas and all sorts of toys
   And numberless dollies, the half of them boys,
   Yet she'd stop in her play to look up at the sky
   And sadly remark "If I'd wings I would fly."
