LITTLE MINNIE'S WISH.

Iwish this war was ended,
And father was at home,
Then mother would not cry so much
oh! why don't father come
I'm sure my mother loves me,
But why, cannot tell,
She makes no more clothes for me,
But sews on clothes to sell.
asked her once about it,
But mother could not speak
She only pressed me to her breast,
While tears fell on my check.
I'm sure there's something very bad
Has happened for | know
Nv mother did not DO this way
About twelve months ago.
am too young to reason much,
But think it very STANCE,
That Just because dear fathers gone
That everything should change.
For since he went away, the man
That used to bring us bread,
Has ceased to come along this way
I'm thinking h6 Is dead.
see the milk,man still goes by,
But why, cannot tell,
He will not stop at our house,
Not even ring his bell
The buchcr, too, that used to be
So kind, polite and clean,
viii not bring ma one bit Of meet,
think he is right mean
told my ma to change them all,
Ard Try some other men;
She sighed, and then cane down her chick
BIZ, tears, like drops Of rain.
Ma used to have nice furniture
But why. cannot say.
She let man that had car,
Haul nearly all away.
wish this wal was ended,
And father was al homie
Then ma, I'm sure would smile again
On When Will father come
