The Girl with the Calico Dress.

A fig for your upper-ten girls,
With their velvets and satins and laces,
Their diamonds and rubies and pearls,
And their milliner figures and faces;
They may shine alta party or ball,
Emblazoned with half they possess;
But give me in place of them all,
Ny girl with the calico dress.
She is as plump as a partridge, and fair
As the rose in its earliest bloom;
Her teeth will with ivory compare,
And her breath with the clover perfume;
Her step is as free and as light
As the fawn's whom the hunters hard press
And her eye is as soft and as bright,
My girl with the calico dress.
She is cheerful, wsFm-hearted, and true,
And is kind to her father and mother,
She studies how much she can do r Ida
For her sweet little sister and brother;
II YOU want companion Tor lie,
To comfort, enltven and bless,
She is just the right sort of wife,
My girl with the calico dress.

May tsae heart to love and prayer.
Because all sounds of human fate
Within my heart an echo find;

The spirit saith good angels sing;
Because wherever sunshine les
The woods and waves with music ring.
Because amid earth's Babel noise,
All happy things that go or come
Give to their grateful hearts voice;
Then why should alone be dumb!
