The Story of Joe, of Idaho. 



By the Bee Crank. 



When Joe and Ida settled down 



In Idaho forlorn, 

 Joe won renown — he beat the town 



At pool from night to morn, 

 And, sad to say, he slept by day 



Wciile Idahoed the corn. 



One day she read a Pouder ad., 

 And then she found her tongue; 



Said she to Joe. " No w you can go ; 



No longer will your Idaho; [ey,- 



I need the money, it's me for hon- 

 And Joe— well, Joe was stung. 



The fact of the mat- 

 ter is, Ida was a better 

 business man than Joe. 

 She sent here for an equipment 

 of Danzenbaker hives, founda- 

 tion, sections, a veil, and a lot 

 of other material of Root qual- 

 ity. With this cue from Ida, 



Joe has improved his 

 habits and is doing 

 much better. 



My catalog tells all 

 about these goods, and 

 it is free. If more con- 

 venient, make up your 

 order from Root's cat- 

 alog, as prices are ex- 

 actly the same, and I 

 ship these goods from 

 Indianapolis at factory 

 prices. I shall consider it a 

 favor if you will send yourbees- 

 wax here, as I pay highest 

 market price, cash or in ex- 

 change for supplies.
