What you’re looking at

This page features a romantic allegory poem by Sam Walter Foss depicting Canada as a "maiden sweet" with "frost-kissed cheek of rose," while "Uncle Sam has turned his eyes / Toward those blushing northern skies." The poem suggests American romantic/political interest in Canada, with Sam as a patient suitor awaiting the moment when Canada becomes "a willing bride"—likely referencing American expansionist ambitions or discussions of Canadian-American union or annexation during this period. The poem reassures Canada that she need not weep; Sam will wait until she willingly consents. The text frames this as inevitable romantic destiny rather than coercion, though the underlying message concerns geopolitical territorial interest. The rest of the page consists primarily of period advertisements (pianos, medicines, tobacco) with scattered brief humorous anecdotes unrelated to the main allegory.

CANADA AND UNCLE SAM. Fair Canada, a maiden sweet As those with roses at their feet, Stands half reluctant—cold but {ai ‘The gleaming snow-flakes in her hair. Behind her stream in frosty nights Her ribbons of the northern lights ;. Her cape the winds blow free and far Is fastened with the polar star. ‘The Pleiades are diamonds fair With which she pins her streaming hair, And thus with frost-kissed cheek of rose Stands the fair maiden of the snows. And Uncle Sam has turned his eyes Toward those blushing northern skies, And the coy shivering beauty there Seems very sweet and very fair. But he is patient and will bide Until she comes a willing bride And the old mother o'er the sea Shall give her daughter willingly. She need not through the coming years Stand sobbing, weeping frozen tears ; But though she pouts and turns away He'll wait for her to name the day. ‘Sam Walter Foss in the Yankee Blade, Mrs, WinsLow’s Sootiine Syrup for Chil- dren Teething ; soothes the child, softens the gums, allays ail pain, cures wind colic and diar- thoea, 25 cents a bottle.
