The Sterilized Christmas.

We've sterilized the choo-choo,
And we've steriliZed the drum,
We've sterilized the Teddy Bear,
But still more had to come;
The germ must be excluded
From the day that takes our pelf
So we've ended up by treating
The Christmas tree itself.
The dolls are fumigated,
Ere we hang 'em on the tree;
Each horn of tin is labeled
With a doctors guaranty;
We thought We had things beaten,
But now science lifts its head
And says the Christmas treelet
Forever should be banned.
So hasten and prepare, then,
An artificial tree,
With germless branches on it;
Make Santa see that he
Has sterilized his whiskers
Before he makes his call;
Make your early shopping germless
When you do the same this fall,
Denver Republican.

Good Reading for Sunday
The Feller on the Fence.

me Fellef on n Fence.
| like a man of courage and eonvie-
ton good and strong,
Though his judgment may be hasty
and his theories may be
wrong;
A nan who'll come out boldly and
defend with main and might
A thing in controversy If he thinks
the thing is right.
| like t measure words with one
who'll parry guard and
thrust,
Defending what he thinks is fair, and
fighting what's unjust.
He may hold views t which my mind
most stubbornly dissents,
But I'm bound to like him better
than the Teller ION the fence
The wishy-washy Teller who, when
politics or art
Are subjects of discussion, never
cares t take a part;
The man whoy when he's talking
with his dearest boosm friend
Will not state his opinion lest the
statements may offend,
Offends me more by silence an by
sittin' calm, inert,
Than he would be fightin' back a bit,
my views to e~ontrovert;
An 1t doesn't stand t. reason that a
man with common sense
feel much admiration for the
Teller ''on the fence"

The Mistletoe Bough.

(Thomas Haynes Bayly.l
The mistletoe hung in the castle
hall,
The holly branch shone on the old
oak wall;
And the baron's retainers were blithe
and gay,
And keeping their Christmas holiday.
The baron beheld with a fathers
pride,
His beautiful child, young Lovell's
bride;
While she with her bright eyes SEEM
ed to be
The star of the goodly company,
o. the mistletoe Dough,
o. the mistletoe bough!
I'm weary of dancing now" she
cried;
Here tarry a moment, I'll hide, I'll
hidel
And Lowell, be sure thou'rt the first
to trace
The clue to my secret lurking place"
Away she ran and her friends began
Each tower to search and each nook
to scan;
And young Lowell cried. 20, where
doest thou hide?
I'm lonesome without thee, my own
dear bride"
o, the mistletoe boug.!
o. the mistletoe Dough.
They sought her that night! and they
sought her next day!
And they sought her in vain when a
week passed away
In the highest, the lowest, the lone
Hest spot
Young Lowell sought wildly but
found her not.
And years flew by, and their grief at
last
Was told as a sorrowful tale long
past,
And when Lowell appeared the child
rem cried,
See, the old man weeps for his
fairy BRIDE"
o. the mistletoe bought
o, the mistletoe bough,
At length an oak chest that had long
laid hid
Was found in the castle-they rais'd
the lid.
And a skeleton form lay molding
there
In the bridal wreath of the lady fair,
o. sad was her fate; in sportive jest
She hid from her lord in the old oak
chest.
1t closed with a spring! and her
bridal bloom
Lay whitening there in a living tomb.
o. the mistletoe bough!

AMERICANS SLAIN

Two Yankees Believed to

(National News Association

DOUGLAS, Ariz., Aug. s.-That two
Americans have been added to the list
of foreigners supposedly murdered in
Mexico, was the belief here today of
friends of Gordia and K. Boyd. Friends
of the brothers reached here today
from the Carretas ranch. twenty-six
miles east of Colonia. Oaxaca. They
reported that the brothers who had
been living ON the ranch with their
father, J. J. Boyd, had not been seen
since July 80. Their house later was
found wide open and deserted. Lying
about it and inside were nearly four
hundred empty cartridges, showing
marks of recent use.
The matter was reported to General
Senjines who sent one Of his officers
to investigate. The officer later, to
his general, confirmed the report re-
ceived here of the brothers, their faith
er and their Chinese cook being miss
ing, but gave no other details, it was
said.
