LARGEST CIfTj;iRCHLATION.
WEDNESDAY MORNING...JuIy 14 18a6
Gaiter Boots.
BY MEISTEB KARL.
A little glove stirs up the hoart,
As tides stir up the oocan ;
Ami snow white muslin, when it fits,
Wakes many a curious notion.
All sorts of lady fixius thrill
My feelings as they’d ortqr—
But little female gaiter boots
Are death and nothing shorter;
And just to put you on your guard,
I’ll give you short and brief,
A small hotel experience,
Which filled my heart with grief;
Last summer, at the “Oliver,”
I stopped a week or more,
And marked two bootees every morn
Before uiy neighbor’s door.
Two boots with patent leather tips,
. Two boots which seemed to say,
“An angel trots around in us”—
They stole my heart away ;
And often in my nightly dreams,
They swept before my face
A lady growing out of them,
As flowers from out a vase,
But oh! one morn I saw a sight
Which struck me like a stone—
Some other naiuo was on the book—
Thoso boots were not alone !
A great tali pair of other boots
Were standing by their side ;
And off they walked that afternoon
And with them walked a bride.

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.
Tho MICA ROOFING is adapted tobuild
ings of every description, and can be ap
plied to Steep or Flat Roofs, or over old
Shingle Roofs, without removing tho 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.
Jfss3~ It costs about one-half the price of
Tin.
It is cheap, durable, and is easily and
quickly 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 hard surface of stone,
beautiful in appearance, and a sure protec
tion against fire.
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 tho expense of anew Roof.
Full directions for applying, and prices,
sent on application.
