Lies Soliloquy.
Two little girls SO happily played,
On the beach in the clean white sand
Till the setting sun babe each Good Night, Q
AS he dropped to the other land,
And they hear the voice of their mothers dear
And homeward they walk hand in hand
But the years roll on, and fate smiled down
On one in her home so grand
While the playmate she loved in childhood S
On the beach in the clean white said,
With child in her arms, must beg for her
Must beg for her bread through the land sss
But the death knell came to the door one
To the door of the lady grand
And there in his arms with the paupers wife
He fed to the heavenly land.
For his eyes were blind to the millionaires
wealth
Or the beach with the clean white sand.
Now two angles sing to the selfsame God,
Away in that better land,
And no one could tell the pauper's wife
From the millionaire lady grand
For with robes alike, once more they play
On the beach in the clean white sand.

SATURDAY ELECTION DAY. Polls will be Open from 9 a. m. to 5 p. m. at the
 Natatorium Hall.
THE LAST CHANGE.

This is the last edition of the News before that momentous event in the history of the town of Douglas, the first city election. And it is also our last chance to urge our readers to vote, one and all of them, for the incorpora- tion of the town.
 Next Saturday morning when you kiss your wife and children before go- ing to work, tell them that you are go- ing to vote for better schools and bet ter, cleaner and healthier town. Tell them that you are going to cast your vote for provision that will help fight back that grim monster of disease and death that has so often threatened and even invaded our homes. Tell them that you will do it now, before it is ev- erlastingly too late and the loved one, the idol of your home, is snatched from your arms, because of your careless ness.
 Of the candidates we have nothing to say. The people of Douglas are fully competent to decide in whose hands shall be placed the affairs of the city. But we again urge every man to do his duty to his home and friends and fam fly by voting for Incorporation.
