PRAT1)RS I DO NOT I,IK,E.
I do not ]ileo to hear hlln pray,
On bonded knee about an hour,
&or grace to send arilg,ht the day,
Who knows his ueig1lbar has no flour.
1'd rather see him go to mill,
And buy the indicates brother bread,
And see Ins children eat their fill,
And laugh beneath their humble shed,
1 do not like to hoar him pray,
"Let blessings on the widow be,"
Who never seeks her home, to say,
"If want o'ertako you, eoote to me,
1 hate the prayer, au loud and long,
That's offered for the orphan's weal,
IJy him who sees him oruelted by wrong,
And only with the lips doth feel,
I do not like to hoar ber ,pray,
With jewelled ear and silken dress,
Whose washerwoman toils all day,
And then is asked to work for less.
Such pious shavers I despise ;
With folded hands and face demure,
They lift to Heaven their "angst eyes,"
And steal the earnings of the poor.
•
I do not like suolh 801111oan prayers ;
If wrong, I hope to.be forgiven.
!tits angel's wing them upward bears ;
They're logit a million miles, from /leaven.

WAY.
Face intellectual-
Color and tone -
Ml the accompaniments
Rea1y home-grown.
Eyes -here I hestitate-
Rather like blue;
Black not an obstacle ;
Hazel would do,
Nose of the Grecian type ;
Not to seem proud,
Soma little latitude
Herein allowed.
Figure that's squeezable -
Plump, but not fat --
Steer clear of scragginess,
Could not stand that.
Qniet and lady -like,
Dresses with taste,
Ankle displayable,
Neat little waist.
Round of home unties, her
Element quite ;
Pie crust eepeoially,
Warranted light,
Common accomplishments ;
Bet in a word,
Those of the useful kind
Greatly preferred.
Little bit musical,
Able to sing,
C1aribe1, Gabriel,-
TIM sort of thing.
Chatty and sociable,
Likes a cigar ;
Pleasant old people,pa-
Pa and mamma.
Pions, devotional,
Gentle, and kind ;
Teach in; the Sunday.aohool ter
If she's a mind.
Lady of such a stamp,
Wanting a bean,
Strictly in confidence,
Moors whereto go,- Brussels.
