Praise of Homefy Women.

Pirate not of pretty girls to mo,
or ruby lips and dreamy eyes,
That beauty cannot cease to be
An ever fresh and sweet surprise:
I care not tho her face be fair,
And framed as in wreath of curls-
For pretty maids l do not care;
l sing the praise OF homely girls.
sing OF her whose nose is pug,
Though even to the side tits tipped
Whose figures like old Omar's Jug
Which riourned the Potter's hand had
slipped;
And say you that she squints a bit?
What odds? And in her speaking halts /?
Nay. girls who squint possess the wit
To sQufnt mans most glazing faults.
A dainty. slender foot no doubt,
Is pleasing. when airs said and done
But husbands later find ii out
That larger feet are best to run
Their little errands. fetch their shoes
When home they come at days demise,
For dainty feet possess no wings
Big-footed girls are for the wise.
The pearly, peach-b1ow cheek has fears
Lest cooking spoil its lovely tint
Cerulean eyes dare shed no tears,
or show of sympathy a hint;
The hand OF Venus smooths no brow.
Unless 1t be a Dukes or Earfs-
And so when you would choose frau
Do not neglect the homey girls.

Central America that held a sugges-
ton of pathos. Its sender was a
United States consul and he took the
mail order department of the big store
into his confidence. He and his wife
were homesick, and they had decided
to give an "At home" on the Fourth
of July that would show the native
aristocracy and other foreign consuls
just how such things are done in the
States.
Among other things ordered we're
paper napkins with United States,
flags on them, paper cases in red,
white aud blue for holding bonbons,
ETC., plenty of fire crackers, candles
galore. boxes of fancy crackers. The
order ended with this injunction:

her cure as follows:
II was an invalid for most five
years caused by Infiammatory Rheu-
matism, helpless two-thirds Of the
time. The first year could not do
as much as baby could do; then
rallied little bit and then relapse.
Then year ago the govt set in my
hands and feet. I suffered untold
agony and in August, 1908, when my
husband died l could not ride to the
grave.
