Don't you wear no shimmy skirt? Don't you weur no "petto" skirt? i Just your corset and your hose ; Are those all your underrlolhes? Little girl, you look so slight, When I son you In the light. Willi your skirt cut rulher high, Won't you catch cold and die? ! Aren't you afraid to show your calf? It must make the fellows laugh! Utile girl, what Is the cause? Why your clothes all mude of gauze? Don't you wear no uudervest 1 When you go out fully dressed? Do you like those pock-a-boos. i 'Hi end of normal underclothes? i Little girl, your 'spenders show I When the sunshine plays just so, I ran see your tinted flesb ; Through your thlnest gown of mesh; ' Is it modest, do you s'pose, l Not to wear no underclothes? j I tun see right past your throat To a region most remote; !

I Little girl, your socks have shoals Of those .tiny little holes; Why you want to show your limb I do not know, Is It a whim? Do you want to catch the eye Of each fellow passing by? Little girl, where Is the charm In your long, uncovered arm? And the "V" behind your neck Is It for the birds to peck? Little girl, I tell you those Are not as nice as underclothes. Little girl, now listen here: You would be Just twice as dear If you'd cover up your charms Neck, back, legs and both your arms. I would tuke you to some shows If you'd wear some underclothes; But no lover goodness knows Wants a girl "sans" underclothes. Little girl, your mystery, Loving charms and modesty Are what makes us fellows keen To possess a little queen. S'pose I wore some harem nants, Or no shirt like all my aunts. Or a ringlet through my noBe They'd arrest me, don't you s'pose? I must wear a coat of mall, . Clothed from heud to big toe nail; I must cover up my form, F.ven when the weather's warm.

The paper from your old home town Has bridged the long and weary ' miles And with it you can settle down , Among familiar tears and smiles. It speaks for every friend you know, It tells of scenes you yearn to see; get it fcr lets COLUMN It brings back Joys of long ago And tells of Joys that are to be. And as you run its columns o'er Your yesterdays come trooping back You fancy you're at home once more. And golden seems the letters black. Its speach is one you understand, " . It tells of griefs that you can share. It brings you, in that foreign land, Glad messages to banish care. There,, among scenes and faces ' strange ' ,, The old home paper seems to be The faithful friend that does not change, A friend that you are glad to see. I know not Just what heaven Is Ilka, Nor Just what Joys beyond life's tide Await for me when death shall strike And I shall reach the other aid. But this I know when I have gone , To dwell In realms divinely fair, My soul will yearn to look upon . The old-home paper over there. '
