OF COURSE HE WOULD.
"I've bought it bonnet, papa, dear ;
My beau declares 'cis trimmed with
skill,
I have no funds, and I've come here
To see if you will foot the bill."
"Your beau, and what maybe his name 9"
The father roughly questioned her ;
She hung her head, with cheeps aflame,
She softly answered, "William, sir."
His eyes 8110130 bright with dangerous
light -
"11'm, so he says 'bis trimmed with skill,
Well, bring him to the house to -night,
And I will gladly foot your Bill."
JUST DO YOUR BEST.
The sign is bad when folks commence
A' flndiu' fault with Provideooe,
And balkiu' cause the earth don't shake
At ev'ry pranoing step they take.
No man is great till he can see
How lege than little be would be
If stripped to self and stark and bare
He hung his sign out anywhere.
My doctern is to lay aside
Contentions and be satieflod ;
Jest do your best, and praise or blame
That fullers that counts jest the same.
I've alias noticed great success
Is mixed with troubles, more or less,
And We the man who does the best
That Bits more kicks than all the rest.
SOME ENGLISH PLURALS.
We'll begin with a box, and the plural i0
boxes,
But the plural of ox should be oxen, not
ores ;
Then one fowl is it goose, bot two are
called geese,
Yet the plural of 030000 should never be
geese
You may find a Ione mouse or a whole
neat of mice,
But the plural of house ie houses, not
hiss ;
If the plural of man footways called men,
Why ahouldu't the plural of pan be palled
pen ?
The cow in the plural may be cow0 or
kine,
Bub a bow if rfpettted is never called bine,
And the plural of VOW is vows, never vine,
If I speak of a foot and you show tae your
feet,
And I give you a boot, would a pair bo
called beet ?
If one is a, tooth, and tt whole set are
teeth,
Why shouldn't the plural of booth be
(Jailed booth
If the eingular's this and the plural is
these,
Should the petal of kiss ever 110 niok.
named 0.r lea ase ?
Then uu0 may be that ttnd three may be
those,
Yot hat in tho plural would never bo hoe°,
And the plural of Oat ie Date, not 0000.
We speak of a brother, and also of breth-
ren,
Bat though we say mother, we never say
tnetllren ;
Then the masculine pronouns are he, his
and him,
But imagine the foluinine she, ahi0 and
shim.
So the English, I think, yea all will agree,
fe the qu00re01 language you ever did see.
