TELLS BY
THEIR SLEEP

Il can tell by my little
ones sleep when a cold is
coming on" said a mother
when speaking of the advance
symptoms of colds in children.
They toss about, are rest
less, their breathing is heavy
and there are symptoms of
night sweats. The next morn
ing | start with SCOTS Emul-
sion. The chances are that
IN a day or two they are all
over it. Their rest is again
peaceful and the breathing
normal"
Here's a suggestion for
all mothers. SCOTS Emul-
sion always has been almost
magical in its action when
used as the ounce of preven-
ton. Nothing seems to over
come child weakness quite so
effectively and quickly as
SCOTS Emulsion.

We're carried up to their room in style,
Above the street, about mile.
Reporters called to get the news H.. l.
About their trip and to print their views
On Chicago's length and breadth and height,
And what they thought of the town at night.
Two tailors came with cloth and tape - -
To fit them out in handsome shape . 49,.
With suits on order and ready made
And vests and ties Of every shade. 49,.
A barber came to dress their hair; -
And a 'manicure, a lady fair, :. ....~

They hired the biggest hall in town; ~
TEDDY-G said he would act the clown
II TEDD1-B would run the show y i
And explain. the tricks and make things GO.
They borrowed: helpers from the,Zoo,
An elephant and a kangaroo, 81.
And sly prairie dogs and monkeys two.
They invited every boy between /.
Six years. old and seventeen;

And girls as many and of equal size, .-
And for every one handsome prize. - h.
The performing troupe was hard to beat,
And the crowd which came filled every seat.
A speech was made by TEDDY-B,
Who told the boys and girls that he ~
Believed in fun and honest strife, 100
And manly sport and strenuous life ss.,,~-. ....s
And things wnioA MAIDS SeS stronger will
And helped weak boys to eiinS bill.
The wo1ld,'' he said, Hwas' made fer play;
And boys and girls should be always gay.''
The fun that day by TEDDY clown = +.
Was thesb best that was ever seen in town. 8,
And the juggling tricks by TEDDY-B
Were the smartest that boys did ever see.
He put monkey in a hat
And shot pistol and took out a cat. "a
He rolled two dogs up in ball
Until there wasn't anything there at ALL
I He lifted up the kangaroo
On the very top Of billiard cue
Which he held >on his nose while he walked around
And tossed ten balls to music sound.
A tub, Of water was brought to him;
: He put in the. dogs and made them swim;
He dipped the water out in pals
Till there was nothing left but pigeons tails.
4 The tails he put,where the dogs had been
And in half a minute they dogs again.
!. He made the elephant eat meal
Perched on the rim Of a wagon wheel
While the monkeys turned the wheel about
And the kangaroo hoped i'll and out st@.'e-
Between the spokes for an hour or more
Making children laugh till their sides were sore.
But the biggest fun that was made that day
Was by >TEDDY-G with his cownish play
He cracked good jokes and cowboy whip
And made. things dance at every clip.
He rode the elephant around the ring
And played for monkeys and made them sing
4 And held hoop while, both jumped thru
And turned handsprings over the kangaroo,
And sang "a song with encores nine q
And danced jig for every line .. y.1ss* 3.
When the show was 'er the crowd went wild !: 't
There were prizes given to every child; s'4josa
They clapped their hands and danced with joy -
And cheered the .bears, each girl and boy. @
They called aloud for 5gTEDDY-G
I. When he stepped out and thus said he:
'SYou'd scarce expect one of my age
