The American Ideal!
THE AMERICAN IDEAL !
BY W . M . CLEMENS . Ah ! too rare exotic!—SHAKESPEARE OR PINERO .
A COMMON-PLACE young girl ; A decidedly rare young girl ; Stay home at night , Do what is right , -Help-her-old-mother young girl . A hard to-find young girl ;
A reader-of-fact young girl ; An extra-poetical , Anti-aistheical , Care-nothing-for-novels young girl . A minus-her-pnffs young girl ;
A show-all-her-brains young girl ; With an unpowdered face , One that don't lace , A dress-for-her-health young girl . An up-in-the-momzng young girl ;
A help-with-the-wash young girl ; One that can rub , Not afraid of the tub , A roll-up-her-sleeves young girl .
A quiet-and-modest young girl ; A sweet-and pure young girl ; Au upright , ambitious , Lovely , delicious , A pride-of-the-home young girl . A sensible young girl ;
A sometimes-silent young girl ; "Who'll sew on a button , And dine off cold mutton , A love-you-for-yourself young girl . A remarkably-scarce young girl ;
A very-much-wanted young girl ; No longer ideal , But quite utterly real , The kind-that-I-like young girl .
