Wake me early,niother darling, When the east is growing gray, For I'm to be queen of the May, mother, i'm to be queen of the May. Put the alarm clock close beside you To announce the break of dawn, For I must rustle out, mother, And get my glad rags on. Wake me early, mother darling, For I've business to be at, For I'm to be queen of the May, mother, 1 have the biggest hat. The pass-word for the month will be, "What's the score?" Book install ments will be paid on the 1st. Gas meters will run slower, aid presidential candi dates -will ruii faster. Pride, which has beei going before a. fall, will go behind a go-cart. Strawberry measure will be: Trwelve quarts make a crate, One pint makes a quart, Top berries make a sale, Nobody make a kick. Mr. Taft will appear at Chic ago, and eigage quarters in the garage for oin 40 liorse power elephant, ap1d on 1 .0 hlorse pow er Tedd13(1ar. r. Bryan will st.rf for DenI't*r In a 1-mule power ruiabot. Congress will adjourn about the l 104h, and the nmbr111l s will go home and ex 5)la in. The watchful tabbycat will get Te helpless little flicker, Anid the pr'ohibitionists will set A few iimore trapls for liquor. The1su will rise at 6 o'clock and .go to bed at 7; and the sweet .J une bride will contemplate the .nlear approach of heaven. The breath of May wvill bring the fern, the rose and butterc up, anrd the farmer's wife will milk and shurni before the amen get Up. *'he boys will skin the slippery elm with Jiummie's barlow-knifes and the ice man will be out to. skin the innocent housewife... The frog will sound a richer bass fron1 ivers aud ravines, and man will tone his system up with sassafras and greens.

AND $1.00, upon The fat buff-cochin fries, And the horse will whirl his tail-piece at The all-tarnation flies. The Saxons called the month Tri-Milki, because at this season the dairyman makes his milk of three parts-one part milk, one part water, and one part fdrm aldehyde. May is from the Latin Maius, just as June takes its name from Juniores, Juniors. That is, this is a month when old heads are at thier best, and young men like Bill Ta.ft and Ted Rosevelt will have to look out for old tops like Uncle John Rockefeller. About the 25th, nobody much will care to bet that Uncle Joe will not be nom inated for president, or that Un cle John will pay that thirty million dollars fine. May is a bad month to wed in, Because, we are told, it is said in Such cases the stork, as a cus tom, begins The young husband's troubles, 0 horrors, with twins. After the 23d, May will be under the influence of Gemini, the sign of the arms. Boys born in Gemini will want to bear arms. They will be sold iers, and work for the govern ment at $13 a month. Gemini people are restles. They move all the time, and you always hai c to ask them where they are living now. They have brilliant imagina tions, and think Tryan will have a walk over. They are foolish, and think Taft won't g 3t the co'ored vote. They are brutally honest, and generally tell the young mother that her baby i* ugly.. The Jrine anInouncemedast will be mnade. and Madam Go~UM will don her fighting cap andI say that she wilT m~arry Prince Sa ganl; whe~reatr heLr Boni, iv1or she had to fieirny detatch,. wii challenge- Belie to come out and fight a spftting- match, 'Dhe' Prince wiEfi luy sane navy plug,, and Boni: buy thre same,' and both will hurry to the fiel. of; sudden death or fai'ne; and while the doctonhurry up, lest s(aie bold fighter dies, ~Iwh dudes willt spit tobaceo juice in one a!1 other's eyes. The~ seconds milli cheer on the fight,, the band wiill! play a tune, and Boni will Rit ,Helle with a silver-ribbed spit toon; receiving which the doughk ty Prince will down him in Ithe mud, anid wash his hated fha tures with wvet tob~acc cud.. And- then John D. will get in line, With sundry growls and hol lers, And pay his June installment on That thirty million dollers. THE ANTI-SPITTING CRUSADE. Eveybody should help stop the public spitting habit, by sending a two-cent stamp today for our attractive, unique hanger card which warns against spitting nuisances. People will take no tice of thIs card and once soon, never forgotten. Address Domr NOCARDS Co., 1807 Chouteau, St. Louis, Mo.* ADDITIONAL LOCALS.
