This grocer's story surprises local
people: "I had bad stomach trouble.
All food see:ned' 10 sour and form gas.
Was always constipated, Nothing helped
until I tried buckthorn bark, glycerine,
etc., as mixed in Adler-i•ka. ONE
SPOONFUL astonished me with its 1N.
STANT action.” Because Adler -i -lea
flushes the ENTIRE alimentary tract it
relieves ANY CASE constipation, sour
stomach or gas and prevents appendicitis.
It has QUICKEST action of any hing we

With Dickens
At -Christmas
He Made Yuletide Real
Again
BEFORE the Christmas
hearth .1 muse alone,
And visions of the past,
both grave and gay,
Rise from the ruddy coals;
outside the moan
Of homeless winds is chid-
den by the lay
Sweet sung by children who
keep holiday,
Making the season's mood
their very own.
And slowly, while 1 gaze and
dream and grow
Less lonesome, do the sights
and sounds of earth
Fade, and my fancy wanders
to and fro
With a great master of la-
ment and mirth,
Who waved his hand to gild
the long ago.
A Wondrous company! Micaw-
ber smiles
In spite of poverty, and Lit-
tle Nell,
Too frail a flower, travels her
weary miles,
Then falls on sleep, and Da-
vid tries to tell
The trials of the young; now
Pickwick's spell
Makes laughter easy; on a
pinnacle
Of sacrifice sits Carton midst
war's wiles.
4 Drolls, villains, gentlefolk of
all degrees
Make populous the air, a
Ihundred strong.
Last comes, as fits the season,
Scrooge, kis knees
'" A. -tremble, till he harks the
Christmas song
Of love and knows that spite
and greed are wrong
And how that charity is more
than these.
1 Master of human hearts! ATo
Christmastide
Whose chants are not the
sweeter and whose
cheer
Is not more blest since Dick-
ens lived and died!
The savor bf his teachings
makes each year
Richer in homely virtues,
i • doth endear
Man unto ratan; hence shall
he long abide.
