Pacific Coast Borax Co.

“ They scattered Borax everywhere
To disinfect the camp.
“A mule broke out with chicken-pox—broke out his tent, you see.”
A FUNNY INCIDENT
And so these mules from place to place,
Did wander in and out,
Adventures meeting everywhere,
With laughter and with shout;
Suppressing filth and doing good
To all they chanced to meet,
Except of course the grimy Imps,
Who always met defeat. ”

“ And so this story we will end,
With three good hearty cheers
For Borax and the twenty mules,
And forty waving ears!
“The mules declared he looked just like a great big wooly sheep.”
THE END.
A WORD ABOUT BORAX
BORAX A HOUSEHOLD NECESSITY Everyone who values cleanliness and sweetness should use Borax. ”

“ The mules all cheered and waved their ears,
And with a hearty will.
“But Borax poultice well applied at once relieved his pain—”
ACCIDENT ON THE WAY TO NURSERY
“My noble men,” the Captain said,
“We’ll take a change of air,
And look into the nursery,
And rout the Imps in there.
The children’s health must be preserved—
No duty is more plain—
So we will purify their room,
And thus their favor gain.” ”
