BARAGA.



Composed by Baraga MANI
suppose my boys you're all acquaint
With poor old Joe, the Baraga Saint;
He and Gallagher ran race,
But as usual, ''sainty" got second place.
Chorus-Ta-ra-ra-boo m-de-aye.
It's a wonder he don't quit his capers
OF trying to vote without showing his papers
Ger defeat he feels sad and Lone
But he'll feel worse IL he has to break stone.
Chorus-Tara-ra-bo om-de-aye.
This day at the polls has been blessing
It has taught some others lasting lesson,
Not to minge with such trash,
For they're always sure to hear something
crash.
Chorus-Ta-ra'ra-boo m.de-aye
hope that we will offend none,
We're merely singing this for fun;
But as a worker he's q RATHER,
But he has no show with L. J. Gallagher

Living Pictures,

From the w. C. T. L. Bulletin.
Very much has been said in the secular
press lately of the condemnation of 'liv-
ing pictures by the w. c. T. U. The
daflies of last week contained a letter of
thanks from number of girls in New
York, who pose in such exhibitions, to
Mrs e. B Grannis, president of the Chris
tian League for the Promotion of Social
Purity, for her defense of them and their
means of support. Reference was made in
this letter to the crusade of Lady Henry
Somerset and others against living pic
lures as unkind and uncalled for These
statements call for explanation. The
w G. T. U. is not opposed to living pic
lures" in toto, but only to the impure ele-
nlent in them. Many of them are repre-
sentatives of pictures and statuary in no
sense Objectionable but beautiful pure and
ennobling and against such the w. G. i.
L. has no fight.
