That Adam was a lonely man I'm ready to believe, Although his many days were blest With nature's fairest Eve; By maiden aunts and cousins fair The man was never kissed, And thus I often think about The fun that Adam missed. It seems to me his life was like An oft-repeated dream; He never treated girls and paid Three dollars for ice cream; He never, when a little boy, By grown-up girls was kissed; And when he died he never knew What fun that he had missed. He never went security And had the note to pay; He never saw his bank's cashier Steal gracefully away: In all his life he never by A mother-in-law was kissed; But why- go on and 'numerate The fun that Adam missed ? Perhaps, if he were living now— But then why speculate?— He'd be too old and not inclined To play with tickle fate. For centuries the wanton winds His unknown grave have blessed) Perhaps he sleeps the better for The fun that he has missed. —Philadelphia Item. >viTH YOUR HANDS TIED ©by some chronic “ female complaint ' or weakness, wn.it can you expect r There's nothing you can * r " w K accomplish—nothing vou ‘ 11,1 Alb: no good reason !< r it. l r i i.-L e's Favorite Prescription will - vou : * nfr, y nil '* <>ei afcSr??'. t-iiiily, if you’ll give it ~’EST * -nd util use.
