Hare's to the maiden of blushing fifteen, Here's to the housewife that's thrifty, Here's to the flaunting extravagant queen And here's to the widow of fifty.

May the sunshine of comfort dispel the cloucj.s of despair.

Success to our army, success to our fleet, May our foes be compelled to bow dovm at our feet

The Frenchman loves his nati\ e wine; The German loves his beer; The Englishman loves his 'alf and 'alf, Because it brings good cheer. The Irishman loves his "whisky straight," \ Because it gives him dizziness. The American has no choice at all, So he drinks the whole d-- business. Here's to the girl I love, And here's to the girl who loves me, And here's to all that love her whom I love, And all those that love her who loves me. Here's to the girl that's strictly in it, Who doesn't lose her head, even for a ininute. Plays well. the game and knows the limit– And still gets all the fun there's in it.
