OF "a Little Girl i.

Here is a little girl
So sweet, SO perfect sweet
From every golden, wind-tossed curl,
Down to her slippered feet!
And even the rustic of her dress
Is unto me sweet caress!
Here is a little girl
So perfect, sweet and pure,
That | do think the thought of her
Shall eVermore endure!
And even her lighteSt football seems
II pass like music through Ily dreams!
Here is a little girl
Who in the storm and strife
Still sweety whispers words of love
And tenderest words of life!
And even her lightest whisper falls
A melody in memory's halls!
Tbe Vote Is ON the Market.
This tariff legislation amt a single thing
to me.
They can tare it all to flinders, silent
let it be-
I am rolling now in clover-hard times all
forgot,
Fer the vote is on the market, an the race
is gittin' hot!
The price is rangin' higher, an the voters
in the swim,
Eff he's got the nerve to keep his vote an
make 'em look fer him,
Fer he's the lucky feller-they must have
the stuff he's got,
When the vote is on the market an the
race is gittin' hot!
I'm jest biln over, an feel like whoop
in loud,
When see 'em lookin fer me in the mid
die O the crowd;
I know they want my 'sstance, an air fix
in up a pot
When the vote is on the market an the race
is gittin' hot!
When Baby Goes to Sleep.
When Katie takes the baby, and the nod
ding little head
Gives token that it's weary and would like
to go to bed,
An air of death-like stiffness bout the house
begins to creep,
And everybody's silent when the baby goes
to sleep.
Sometimes get so frightened that almost
lose my BREATH
If chance to male bit of noise 1t Scares
me most to death,
When from meath tiny eyebrow / see
halfway peep
From big blue eyes, when baby has almost
gone to sleep
And when at last the twinkling Of tiny
smile appears
On lips that angel kisses softly touch as
dreaming nears,
1 give a sigh of gladness, that is full of
thanks, and deep,
That the world can once more move on, for
baby's gone to sleep

He plays, and plays always to win,
His face is sleek, his hands are soft

And there, and sweet to him is sin
If he can but it's profits share.
With naught of grief doth he condole-

And through his pale lips, set and thin,
Glides the keen cunning of his heart!
