the chemical laboratory at Santa Clara Col

the boy useful, but at the same time he wanted

boy had no conception of the restraints of civil

the chase he would sit down with the boy before.

A lady had one sad regret
That she tried vainiy to forget
In youth she had a perfect row
OF teeth that rivaled Alpine snow.
But knowing not their value rare,
She failed to give them proper care,

She found those gems had flown away.

And should warning be to you,
To save your teeth from sure decay,
