HEIRE'S A MERCHANT WHO
KNEW HOW'
Th.ere was an old geezer
And he had a lot of sense,
He started up a,business
On a, dollar eighty .cents.
The dollar for stock,
And the eighty for an ad.
Brought him three lovely dollars
• In a day, by dad
Well, he bought more goorls,
And a little more space,
And he played thatsystem
With a smile on his face.
;The customers flocked
To his two-by-four
Aad soon he had to hustle
For a regular store.
*Up on the. square
Where the people, pass ,
He gobbled up a corner
That was all plate glass.
He fixed up the windows
With the best that he had,
And told them all about it
In a half page ad.
He soon had 'exn coming
And he never, never quit,
And he wouldn't cut down
On his ads. one jit,
And he's kept things humping
In the town ever since,
And everybody calls him
The Merchant Prince,
Some say it's luCk
But that's all bunk—
Why, he was doing business
When times were punk.
People have to purchase

Thousands of people owe Um- -
splendid Fruit Medicine—Fruit-a-
tives"--a lasting debt of' gratitude,
which they gladly pay by testifying
to its merits.
Mrs, Laura Alford of 28 Florence
St., Ottawa, says: For years, I was aa
martyr to Constipation and Dyspep-
sia. I have tried cathartics, salts and:
so-called -vegetable laxatives but alli
were unpleasant and gave no per:-
• manent relief. Finally, I decided to
try "Fruit-a-tives'2. I have beene
using "Fruit -a -fives" now for ,sven,
years; never have Constipation or-
Sfonaaeh Trouble; and have beenino
the best of health ever since. My -
husband and children use "Fruit-
a-tives" regularly".

-a-tives contain intensified..

and 50e a box-- at dealers.,

• Don't forget that a Cainp Fire Ex-
tinguished is Duty Well Done. You:.
-ina.y be forgiven for an unintention-
al breach of the above rules but you,.
will never forgive yourself if, through.
your carelessness a forest is destroy-
ed—a single snatch not. extinguished.
when thrown aside may cost a tre-
mendous property loss and lives.
A single tree -will make a million
matches—a match may destroy a
million trees. ,
The forests of Canada are owned
by the people to the extent of 85 -per
cent., while in the --United States' 75,
per cent. of the forest area is private-
ly owned.
In • prixtecting Canada's forest
wealth we are protecting our own
property—let's co-operate.
