Big bargains in linens and domesties-those very
things you need.

There's red paint in the catsup.

There's coal tar in vanilla,

There's dope in ev'ry brew,
Tie flour carries arsenic
There's poison in the beoze.
Trichina lies an hidins

Disease with evsry breath:
With ev'ry step poor mortals
Walk hand in hand with Death.

For life is but a gamble
Uncertainty at best.

SHE WAS A BIRD.

Mrs. Elizabeth Buzzard started out early in life to feather her nest we'll, and has always had her eye on the main chance. She began as Elithabeth Bird of Harrison county, near Paris, Ky. Her first venture outside the home nest was when she married Bud Martin. When Mir. Martin died she mar ried Edward Crow, a farmer. when the time came to change nests she allied herself with William Robin and lived happily until the matri- monial season for Mrs. Robin again rolled around. Then David Buzzard, a widower, more attrac- tive personally and socially than his name would indicate, appeared and Mrs. Robin become Mrs. Rnz- gard. Into the Buzzard roost Mrs Robin carried one little Martin. two little Crows, and one little Robin. One little Buzzard was already there to welcome the other birds.
