WHEN THE GIRLS WORE CALICO,

There was time. betwixt the days
OF linsey, woolsey, straight and prim,
And these when mode, with despot ways
Leads woman captive at its whim,
Yet not hundred years ago,
When girls wore simple calico.
Within the barn by lantern light,
Through many reel, with flying feet
The boys and maidens danced at night
To fddled measures, shrilly sweet,
And merry reyels were they, though
The girls were gowneu in calico.
Across the flooring rough and gray
The gold of scattered chat was spread,
And long festoons of clover hay
That struggled from the loft Ger head,
Swung scented fringes to and fro
0'er pretty girls in calico.
They used to go a-Maying then
The blossoms Of the spring to seek
In sunny glade and sheltered glen,
Unweighed by fashions latest freak,
And Robin fell in love- l know,
With Phyllis in her calico.

And beads of coral and of gold,
And rosy checks and merry eyes
Made lassies in that long ago
Look charming In their calico.

OF gracious air and gentle grace,
And finds her oftentimes arrayed
In shining silk and priceless lace
Would love her just as well, 1 know,

1t is rarely the case that it is advisable

Hope is general In the street that the

alton of the strong stock market OF yes
terday. The dealings yesterday were on
! a broader basis and prices were more gen.
| orally advanced than on any previous day

| strongly in favor of better bank state

street believes this and is following the

ming of the spring boom may not yet
have arrived and probably has not, but the
best opinion is that prices have seen their

be remembered that the general news from
this time on is likely 10 be more and more
encouraging Nobody fears for the wheat
crop and the reports seem reasonably Ger

nifcent The railroads from now on will
show larger earnings. III is 10 De e&-
pected that the spring advance in the stock
market will begin somewhat earlier TINS
year than usual owing TO the speculative
conditions prevailing.
The market yesterday was without spe-
cial incident. The course OF prices was
generally upward and there were few
breaks in the advance. Il Will probably
be considered bull argument also ina,
