HER SWEETHEART.
: The man I love? Well, rather small (But stature doesn't count at all); He's a dear! Hair as golden as the sun; Fair as you e'er looked upon; i Byes of blue, and full of fun, And good cheer. He's the only man I know Who can touch my heartstrings so Tenderly; When he's with me all is bright, Every shadow turns to light; If he's absent life's a blight Then, to me. | Strange to say I love him best When in overalls he's dressed, For his play; I am just as proud of him - If his purse is rather slim, For he s sweet, and neat, and trim . Every day. He's the idol of my heart (And my secret I'll impart Just for fun!) , In my love he holds high rank, Without him earth would be a blank; He's two years old, his name is Frank; He's my son. —From Colorado Spring* •Gazette.*
