ATTORNEY SURELY A WONDER
But old DarIy's Admiration Must Have Been Embarrassing Under
 the Circumstances.

In Alabama they tell of a prOsecut- ing attorney who was so uniformly successful with his cases that he be- came both the terror of evil-doers in the vicinity and the admiration of all, especially the dusky portion of the population.
 Upon his withdrawal from office he was at once sought out by those charged with crime. Much to his dis gust, the first two cases that he de- tended resulted in the conviction of his clients. An aged darky, named Joe Clinton, who had watched his prOsecu- tions with wonder and who looked on with equal amazement now he con- ducted the defense, met the attorney just after his second defeat.
 'Mistah Cal" said the old chap, in awed tones, "yo' shore is a wonder. No matter which side you is on, they goes to the pen just the same. Mil waukee Sentinel.

arresting truths about how clean
illness and beauty are related.
Let us start with the face.
Areally healthy skin is always a clean
skin and usually beautiful skin.
Physicians who have studied the
care Of the skin say that simple
cleanliness is the one most impor-
tant aid to the health and beauty
of your complexion.
And they dwell upon the impor-
lance Of using pure, gentle soap,
which is nothing but soap-that
is, without extraneous or mysterious
additions.

Magic?-No,
Intelligence holds Beautys Seer

One would say that was simple
enough-to clean safely.
Yet before Ivory Soap, only few
people could enjoy the luxury Of
pure, milo, safe-deaning soap. Now,
of course, everyone can have it.
Sa6e-deansing is the duty, the priv
1ege and the destiny Of Ivory Soap.
In fory-thrcc years no other claim
has been made for it.
Ivory is always the same-always
that white, mild, gentle soap which
has protected hands and faces and
refreshed bodies for nearly two gen
erations. 1t contains no mysteries"
it Offers no magic"
When you buy Ivory, you are asked
to buy only ta,r taat. Ivory helps
to bcautify, because it cleans safely:

hay
No need for the cow or the hen.
He never would milk another COW,
He hated the sight Of a grunting SOW,
And raising chickens was work for
the frau,
Goodbye to the cow and the hen.
They gave no heed to his jeer OF
frown;
The COW and the pig and the hen,
Whatever goes up, said they, comes
down,
The wise old COW and the hen.
The hen laid eggs the winter through,
The cow gave milk and the piggy grew,
But hay dropped down from thirty to
two
Oh, the cow, the pig and the heni
Now he sits and signs, as he counts
his cost,
For the cow and the pig and the hen.
He almost cries for the milk he's
lost,
The COW and the pig and the hen.
He'd tend them gladly In mud and
And lessen his acres Of hay and grain,
rain,
If he only could ny them back again,
The cow and the pig and the hen.
