O, th« red, the flaunting petticoat, That court* the eye of day, That lores to flare and be admired, Afld blinks from far away ; It may delight the roving sight, And charm the fancy fVee, But if it’s wearer’s half as bold, I’ll pass and let her be; With her red flaunting petticoat, She’s not the girl for mo. But the white, the modest petticoat, As pure as drifted snow, That shuns the gate in crowded ways , Where follies oome and go ; It stirs the primrose on the path, Or daisy on the lea ; And if the wearer's like the garb, How beautiful it she, With her white, her modest petticoat, 0, she’s the girl for me !

Roofing. LOOK TO YOUR ROOFS. HAVING SECURED THE STATE RIGHT OF THE PATENT MICA ROOFING, We are now prepared to supply it in any quantity, or to apply it to Roofs. The MICA ROOFING is adapted to build ings of every description, and can be ap plied to Steep or Flat Roofs, or over old Shingle Roofs, without removing the shin gles. We recommend its use on Factories, Foundries, Store Houses, Cotton Sheds, Railroad Depots and upon all buildings where steam is used, and a Fire Proof re quired. It costs about one-half the price of Tin. It is cheap, durable, and is easily and qniekly applied. The upper surface of the Roofing is protected from the action of the weather, by its covering of Ground Mica, which is pressed into the water proof com position, making a bard surface of stone, nuautitui in appearance, and a sure protec tion against firo. We shall also keep constantly on hand a supply of india-rubber roofing paint, which is the best coating that can be used for Tin Roofing. Leaky Tin Roofs can be readily repaired, so as to last many years, at a trifling cost, which would in many cases save the expense of anew Roof. * Full directions for applying, and prices, sent on application.
