A Popular Choice,


We've got party leader up to Pohck on
the crick:
He saw an opportunity, an grabbed it
purity quick.
We have some smarter men than him; on
that we're all agreed,
But they're kind O. holler-chested an
they're not the sort we need
When we're f1ingin' out the banners on a
public holiday,
An mnglin oratory with the general dis
play.
We want "a han'some feller, who can mag
netiZe the crowd
An specially some one who has the art of
talkin' loud.
When people is assembled to a speech from
far an near
They don't keer much bout arguments, so
long they kin hear
The jokes an funny stories. Them's what
ketches the applause.
We're all tired. but a-thinkin' bout econ
omy an laws.
So Uncle Jims the feller that we've picked,
He looks the best
OF all. when he is posin' an a-throwin' out
his chest
We have full confidence in him. We know
he'll do us proud,
Fur he's uncommon gifted in the art of
talkin' loud.

BAD BLOOD,
BAD COMPLEXION.

The skin is the seat of an almost end
less variety of diseases. They are known
by various names, but are all due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
: To have a smooth, soft skin, free from
all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations of
arsenic and potash and the large number
of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover up
for short time, but cannot remove per-
manently the ugly blotches and the red,
dishguring pimples.
