THE NEW BONNET.

A foolish little maiden bought a foolish lit
Ito bonnet,
With a ribbon and feather and q bit of lac,
upon it;
And that the other maidcns of the littl,
town might know it,
Sho thought she'd go to meeting the mex
Sunday just to show it.
But though the little bonnet was scarce
larger than dime.
The getting oft settled proved to be work
of time;
So when't was fairly tied and all the bell.
had stopped their ringing,
And whcn she came to meeting, sure
enough, the folks were singing.
So this foolish little maiden stood and
waited at the door;
And she shook her rutllcs ont behind and
smoOtllcd them down before.
''lIallelujah! Hallclnjah" sang the choir
above her h ;sd.
Hardly knew yon! Hardly knew you I"
were the words she thought they said.
This made the littlc maiden feel " very.
very cross,
That she gave her little mouth twist.
her little head toss;
For she thought tho very hymn they sang
was all about her bonnet,
With tho ribbon and tho feather and the
bit II lace upon it.
And she would not wait to listen to the
sermon Or this prayer,
But pattcrcl down tho silent street and
hurried down the stair
Till she rca :he.l her little bureau, and in .
b:and-b0x on it
Had hidden safe from critics eye, her
foolish little bonnet.
Which proves my little maidsns that each
Of you will find,
In every Sabbath service but an echo Of
yonr mind;
And the silly little head, that's filed with
silly little airs,
Will never get u bl:ssing from sermon q
from prayers.
