THE OLD AND THE NEW WAY.


In olden days the candidate would roam
about the land,
And kiss the chubby little kids and shake
the fathers hand,
And praise the cooking of the wife clear up
unto the skies,
And tell the daughters that the gods would
envy them their eyes.
But in these more progressive days he has a
better plan,
He closely stays at home and let's the office
seek the man,
But fearing that said office might unknow-
ing pass him by,
He signs his name to hefty checks TO catch
Its search ing eye.

In our bow to the public we only wish to say
that we intend to carry as fine stock of
goods in our line as there is in Colorado, and
are willing to compete with Denver prices.
