The pain that sometimes strikesa man

at the most inopportune moment is due to indigestion. It may come in the midst of a dinner and make the feast a mockery. It is a reminder that he may not eat what he chooses, nor when he chooses. He is a slave tothe weakness of hisstomach. A man’s health and strength depend upon what he gets out of his food. This de- pends on his digestion. Remove the ob- | struction by taking Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant | Pellets. They are a positive cure for | constipation and ite attendant ills—bead-~ aches, sour stomach, flatulence, dizzine+s biliousness and heartburn. The “Pllets” are very gentle in their acuon. They simply assist nature. They give no vio- lent wrench to the system. They canse nO pain, oor griping.

W ben all around was still, Something which had such wondrous power, Her inmost soui to thrill. Its |i tle f et £0 smooth and white, lhis earth bad never trod, The mother bails it with delight, Iv iss gift fram God.

*Twas sevt to her to cheer and guide, To comfor:, and to blese, :

TO nesile ciorely by her side With loving tond caress,

You ek what is this precious gift, The mother hails with joy ? Well, since I must the curtaia |ift.

Itis her first born boy.

Any shoe polish that shines without brushing is a varnish—and varnishy or waxy dressing must burn leather, seal up its pores and crac« it.
