The cutter is a sloop with an extra head
sail. This is set from the bow to the mast
head, cut like a iib and is called the stay

deep keel boats, which has led to belief
that a cutter is a deep. narrow keel yacht.

IDAHO
THE LOVE CHASE.

Though oft pass her on the street,
seldom seem to catch her eye;
She rarely let's our glances meet,
Although she knows I'm passing BY.
But though to me she does not speak,
Nor give look my heart to cheer,
The furtive blush upon her cheek
Tells me she knows that am near.
IT'S true she's full of girlish art,
trait that's common 10 her sex,
But shells no coQuette at heart,
Though oft her tricks my mind perplex.
/ know she's partial to the rose
I've -snt her some, both red and yellow
Yet out upon the street she goes
With yiolets from some other fellow.
And still this love chase I pursue,
'Twixt hope and fear continue wooing,
One day o'erjoycd, the next 80 blue
l scarcely know what am doing.
But one thought take comfort in,
And gloomy doubt gives place TO rapture
Tho harder she may be to win
The dearer yet will be the capture.
