Thin men and women—that big, hearty, filling dinner you ate last night What became of all the fat producing nourishment it' contained? 0u Cut out the foolish foods and funny SOAP, THE OPPRESSOR.' The folks at my bouse half the time are thinkin about dirt It "prt of gives 'em horrors, an'Jtfaey ifeact as if It hurt. §,' Th'e "fight of just a little makes 'em daffy as can be— They're always washin' sumthin', an' \jhalf the time It's me. It ain't because I wet my feet that gives me colds an' such 'Taln't runnln' round that keeps me thin—It's 'cause I'm washed so much. It does no good to teil 'em, they're so stubburn. But I hope That some day they'll discover what deceitful stuff is soap. I tell you, very often when my hands was clean and white I've gone along to waBh 'em, 'cause it did no good to fight When I've stuck 'em in the basin it was plain enough to see The soap would make the water as dirty as could be. If fplks would give me half a chance, K' with soap that didn't cheat, I guess they'd be surprised to find I'm nachurally neat. I'd take on flesh and leave off havin' cords an' such, I know— An' no one could complain about the parts of me that show. —Burges Johnson. woman's Alliance Meeting.
