THUMBS UNDER PASS
Have a stubborn inert thumb
That makes scales rough and slow?
If it persists in being “dumb”.
You'll always play Large.
Just make a tunnel of youT hand,
And, as your second plays,
Yofur thumb if under right com
mand,
Will never caude delays.
So, if with scales you would suc
ceed
Yopr thumb must help, you know;
Good underpass you'll surely need,
In gaining real ppesto.

VN EARLY MAY (DAY FESTIVAL
»
All nature i« quite glad today,
It i* the first otf May,
The merry month of outdoor joy
For every girl and boy.
From far and near on the green
The children can be seen;
They dance, they run, they skip
and roll
Around the huge May pole.
\
In garlands neat upon each bough
The flowers formed are now,
And clothed in brightness all around
The happy folks are found.
The mufte floats upon the breeze
And through the new leaved trees,
The children, clad in bright array,
Never were seen more gay.
This May Day fear» will long be
kept,
Its joys we'll e’er accept,
And we will wait patiently
For April next to flee.
-o
SPRING
The Alder by tirte river
Shakes out her powdery curia;
The willow buds in silver
For little boys and girled
<
\
Hie little birds fly over—
And oh, how sweet they sing—
To tell the happy children
That once again ’tia spring.
The gay green grass comes
creeping
The buttercups are coming
And scarlet columbine,
And in the sunny meadows
The dandelions shine.
And just as many daisies
As their soft hands can hold
The little ones may gather,
All fair in white and gold.
Here blooms the warm red clover
There peeps the violet blue;
Oh happy little children,
God made them all for you.

POUNDS OF FAT
Feel full of pep and possess the
slender form you crave—you can’t
if you listen to gossipers.
To take off excess fat go light on
fatty meats, butter, cream and sug
ary sweets — eat more fruit and
vegetables and take a half teaspoon
ful of Kruschen Salts In a glass of
hot water every morning to elimi
nate excess waste.
Mrs. Fima Verffle of Harr. d.
