THE FILCANTHROPIC COW
Said a cow, “It has long been my dream, A sort of utopian scheme, To leave, when I die, Enough milk to supply A home for poor kittens—with cream.”
TACT
Quoth a cat to me once: “Pray relieve My suspense. What does eight from nine leave?” Poor puss looked so cold And so thin and so old, I replied, “Quite a few, I believe.”

THIS delicious tropical fruit is grown, sliced and packed by Libby, Mc̣Neill & Libby on their Hawaiian Plantations, the home of the world’s best pineapple.
Libby’s is the kind of Pineapple that has the sun-ripened natural flavor, and is good for everybody.
The sanitary can is full of tender, generous slices with a syrup of pure granulated sugar and luscious pineapple juice.
