A SUMMER BARGAIN.

I'm young and very handsome 1 have
heard a maiden say
She thought me quite q. wonder in my
own peculiar way.
I'm what a novelist would call a person
debOnair;
And when I'm in the dancing hall no
maiden seeks the stair
I've genius for Irritation; there are twin
kles in my eye
That you will find most fetching, even
though you're very shy;
And was told one evening, promenading
in the park,
My glanceS were SO swapping, you could
see them in the dark.
two-step Gust divinely"-you'n observe
l merely quote;
And when | sing q college song, or strike
a banjo note
My hearers grow ecstatic-these are facts
not Dragging vain
And ask if old Apollo is not back on earth
again.
In conversation, I must say, you'll rarely
find a man
To talk as errtertainingly as people say I
can;
And in match of badinage. or chatting
erudite,
The fiippant and the learned all agree I'm
out of sight.
But am poor-oh, very poor-as poor as
one can be;
Jobs turkey was CrOeSuS in comparison
with me;
And that is why I write these lines, now
summers coming on
To ask if you'll subscribe for me for pc
RODS anon.
For fifty dollars weekly and expenses 1
will go
And make a barren mountain house
mansion full of glow.

who crowd the sounding sea,
Can possibly make no mistake if they'll
subscribe for me-
I'll dance with you, I'll walk with you,
I'll sit upon the stair;
II'n dash off lovely verses to your dlmpleS
and your hair;
I'll fiirt with you: I'll bait your hooks
when you perchance would fish;
In fact, I'll be as fine beau as any one
could wish.
So hurry, summer maidens, haste to get
your offers in,
If you lovely cavalier for August next
would win;
For there are indications mongSt some
heireSses / know
To corner all the stock there is in this
especial beau.
