He Did All He Could.

He did all he could to be hearty and
strong;
The trouble he took was surprising,
But nothing he tried seemed TO help him
along;
His weakness was past all Disgusting.
He took iron tablets and essence of steel
And tonics whose taste was as bad as
their smell.
And pepsin before. also after each meal,
Yet he seldom felt well.
He never fed rashly; his diet he'd choose
BY formulse quite scientific;
A steak or a chop he would sternly re-
fuse,
But the way he ate oats was terrific.
He gorged on chopped feed and on millet
and bran
And such stuffs sanitariums sell:
But. in spite of it all. it's a fact that the
man
Hardly ever felt well.
He slept in draft on a pillowless bed
That was hard as Gehenna's gate hinges;
He bathed in ice water, thing that he
said
Ought to help his rheumatical twinges:
Also Indian clubs and dumbbells would he
swing
Until with exhaustion he fell;
So 1t seems-does it not?-a remarkable
thing
That he seldom felt well.

There were 43 more deaths than
births in the city of Davenport last
year. The official statement has been
completed and the figures are to be
sent on to the state board of health
The number of births in the city for
the preceding year was sos and the
deaths that were recorded in the
same year was 54S. This would in
dictate that the population was de
creasing. and if it was not reinforced
by outside forces it would only take
about 1000 years before the city
would be entirely depopulated.
