...Hi, uu., ui wHiumouj, uaio.
A Uunch of Valentines. .
JOHN HAY: We'vo heard repeated
oftoii that you were a nrst-class
diplomat. Porhapa you know what
you're about, but all the country is
in doubt. Its "Little Breeches," it
will own were quite a long time since
outgrown. While soft speech from
your two lips rolls all Europe goes
to blowing holes in that great doc
trine wo love so, the one proclaimed
by James Monroe. Dear John, put
this with other facts we don't love
Anglo-Maniacs. So wake up, John,
and quickly steer those allies from
this hemisphere.
"GAS" ADDICKS: "Tho Senator
from Delaware" is title that you'd
11 ko to wear, but spite of all the
schemes you've wrought tho title
yet remains unbought Tho Blue
Hen's chicks are onto you and real
izo that you won't do. Their state
Is very small in size, hut her good
namo they highly prize. And so,
despite tho gold you spend to Wash
ington not you they'll send. Each
honest voter loud declares he'd
rather see two vacant chairs until
the end of time is done than see a
man like you hold one.
PHILANDER KNOX: Philander, long
tho trusts have known they hold
you for their very own. Your paper
bullets do Hot kill tho giant trusts,
and never will. Your very smooth
injunction shocks don't fool the peo
ple, Mr. Knox. If you think they
dofc't know the caso, then, Mr.
Knox, you're off your base.
They road and know tho cotfntry'B
laws and understand the crim'nal
clause is not enforced because you
are tho trusts' attorney at the bar.
You'll play horse with tho neonle
till they throw you o'er tho tran
som, PhiL
WILLIAM E. MASON:. You tried to
stand for human good, for equal
rights and "brbtherhootL -Alas for
ou, you did not soo'this did not suit
tho g. o. p. You sliduld havo known
your fato too well for others from
that reason fell. At all injustice you
should wink and never, never, dare
to think. Had you for justice been
less firm you might have had a sec
ond term. But when you dared de
fend tho Boer your party thirsted
for your gore. Within your party
there remains no room for men of
heart and brains.
LESLIE M. SHAW: You started out
with wealth of brag that after Wall
street you'd not drag. But now
you're blowing cold and hot as bad
as any in the lot You loan on
whetstones, chips and things the
country's gold to Wall street kings.
At Denison tho man who got a loan
from you paid quite a lot of Inter
est upon his note and gave a mort
gage called "cut throat" But Wall
street kings need but to say, "We'd
like to havo some gold today," and
you send them a golden store ' and
humbly ask, "Do you want more?"
TOM JOHNSON: Tom, wo admiro
your vig'rous stylo that keeps you
busy all tho while. Tho world ad
mires the man who fights for jus
tice and for human rights; who
knows the common people's need to
be released from selfish greed that
grinds them down into tho dust to
fatten up some brutal trust and
knowing it will lead the fray no
matter what the trust kings say
The people need more men like you
who know tho right and dare to Ho.
Here's to you, Tom; you'll win out
yet the gang is on the run, you bet.
JOHN PIERPONT MORGAN: You've
merged and watered till you hold
great chunks of bonds and stocks
and gold. You are the king of our
finance and rule the markets with
a glance. You stand and make a
little spiel and, lo, you have a trust
in steel. You wink, and railroads
all combine; you nod and all the
coal is thine. You frown and puck
er up your lips, and then you have
a trust in ships. You've cornered
ev'rything at hand and are the big
man of the land. But, Pierpont, we
poor folk agree in giving thanks
salvation's free.
JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER: Dear
John, your oil trust is a "cinch;"
with it the people you can pinch.
You raise the price and instantlee
Chicago universitee prepares to give
a gleeful yell and sing your praises
for a spell. When of a gift you start
to think wo know it by the coal oil's
stink. 'Twas Robin Rood. who bold
ly stole, and then to ease his guilty
soul, gave from his booty's golden
store to clothe and feed the sick and
poor. You're not like Robin Hood
because he didn't work through pur
chased laws.

Miss Mayme Grayce Clancey,. an
aesthetic young iniss, '.','
Who read Jaura Lean Jibbey's most;
wonderful books', t , '
Exclaimed to herself, "Well, Fin quite5
sure of this,
The man whom I wed must be one
of good looks;
His mustache be curly, his long, wav
ing hair
As black as the wing of. the raven
must be;
And the air of a baronet, lord or
,duke wear, . ''
If ever he makes an impression on
me.
"His hands must be dainty, unsul
lied by work,
His eyes must be dreamy, but full
of true light
Wherein the true poet's own dear soul
must lurk,
And like a Sir Knight for his lady
must fight.
A man great and noble'tis such I
will claim
As king of my heart and my own
lover true,
And he must "be own,er of some pret
ty name
Do Lancey, FitzPercey or Harrolde
will do."
Miss Mayme Grayce Clancey thus
dreamed her dreams sweet
While poring o'er Jaura Lean Jib
bey's dear books,
Until 'round her optics there gathered
crowsfeet
And a fat doublechin rather marred
her good looks.
'Twas then she awoke from her Jib
beyesque trance
And with a great joy in her shrill
piercing tones
She gave a quick "Yes" with a fond
happy glance, '

for . a month and, if i succeeds, ;the
cost is only $5.60. If it fails,-1 -will

I have no sam: -es, because any med
icine that can affec' Rheumatism
quickly must be drugged to the vergo
of danger. I use no such drugs, and
it is folly to take .them. You must
get the disease out of the blood.
My remedy does that, even in the
most difficult obstinate cases. No
matter how impossible this seems to
you, I know it and take the, risk.. I
have cured tens of thousands of cases
in this way, and my records show that
39 out of 40 who get six bottles pay,
gladly, r have learned that people. in
general are honest with a physician
who cures them. That is .all I ask.
If I fail" I don't expsct a penny from
you.
Simply writo me a postal card or a
letter. I will send you my book about
Rheumatism, and an order for tho
medicine. Take it .for a 'moii'thi' as' it
won't harm you anyway. If it fails,
I' is free, and I 'leave tL6 ""decision
