H HOOPS.
BY A. cooRxR

A. cooRER.
Hoops on barrels, kegs and pals,
Hoops ON boxes tubs aud bales, tf,f
Are articles indispensable
4 But hoops as they puff out woman's dress,
Making the woman look so much less,
% Are things most indefensible.
Hoops when their sturdy clasp confines,
Tn brown old casks the richest wines,
Are effects Of admiration
But hoops as part Of wOman's baggage, ...-
Are like the whoops of painted savage,
"A vile abominanon.
Hoops make useful, pretty toys,
For active little girls and boys, -a--r.lr -..
But hoops on woman gentle,
Are things to sneer at and TO scof,
And like the whoop of whoeping cough,
Neither nseful nor ornamental.
d. For while dear woman bones her skirts,
And with skeleton haunts and flirls ..
She has so much TO carry,
Man finds il hard with her to talk,
And harder still To sit or walk,
'a But hardest OF all 10 marry.
For when a emptten wretch has seen
Among the lost in crnoline,
The one his heart holds dearer,
Oh! what n chill to ardent passion.
To feel that thro' this hollow fashion . 49,.
He neyercan be nearer!
That instead OF tmidly drawing near,
And pouring into the thrilling ear
The food of his souls devotion,
He must stand and below in thunder tones,
Across half an acre el skirts and bones,
AS If hailing ship on the ocean,
And IL by chance the maid of his choice,
Shall family hear her lovers voice,
And smile her cOndeseensiOn-
Why he captures u mass of hoops a nd rings,
Skeletons, bones. and other things,
Isr Too horrible 10 me ntion.
Thus lovely woman hoops to folly,
And drives poor man to melancholy,
- By her great frgd zones;
Then let her hear Il warning voice,
Between her hoops and hopes make choice,
And give the dogs her bones.
