PRECEPTS.

IN POETRY AND PROSE.

Three little maida from school are we, Proper and good as we ought to be ; The reason why you will shortly see : Three little maids from school. Three little maids, delighted very, Laughing always so bright and merry ; Every one with a " Waterbury : " Three little maids from schcrol. Time ie money.
