Yes, bury him deep, the lone Bull Moose.
Both his horns and his hOofs and his hide.
Lay him away in a calm, quiet spot,
With the big stick close by his side
Make not sound to disturb his repose
Or refer to his last sad foray;
Plant his rough rider hat with his other old clothes
And leave him alone in his glory.
We will not refer to the New York campaign
Or the later affair at Chicago.
From the Panama matter we'll kindly refrain,
On Mrs. Storey we'll place an embargo.
OF the Sugar and Steel trust no mention we'll make,
Nor refer to the Hartman letter:
But in silence and sorrow our leave we will take
Of'such things the less said the better
Well silently watch them lay him away
Without prejudice, envy or bias,
Well think whole lot, though nothing We'll say,
We brothers of old Ananias.
No reveng sounds will mark our retreat.
Nor tears for the hopes that were blighted
But we'll kick up the dust with our stunning feet
And away will hurry deelghted.

1T IS CRIMINAL TO NEGLECT
THE SKIN AND HAIR

Think Of the suffering entailed by
neglected skin troubles-mental be-
cause of designation, physical be-
cause of pain. Think OF the pleasure
Of a clear skin, soft, white hands, and
good hair. These blessings, SO essen
tial to happiness and even success in
life, are often only matter OF little
thoughtful care in the selection OF
effective remedial agents. Cuticura
Soap and Ointment do 80 much for
poor compilations, red, rough hands,

SO little, that it is almost criminal not
to use them. Although Cuticura Soap
