DEFENSIVE MEDICATION,

Investigation Is as necessary for the protection
of the human body against disease when unheal-
thy influences are abroad, as iron armor and
granite easements are for the protection of ships
and fortresses when a.sailed by shot and shell.
Hence, it is desirable when those potent enemies
breathe, to put the system in the best possible
condition to encounter them. The stomach is
the organ by which every other organ is nourish-
ed and sustained, and therefore upon its vigorous
and regular action depends, in great measure,
the capacity of the system to resist the assaults
of the invisible enemies of health and life, by
which, at this Indictment season, it is surrounded.
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, an admirable tonic
and regulating medicine for all seasons, is never
more needed than in winter, when the torpyfying
influences of chilly atmosphere affects all the
vital functions, and renders the body extremely
susceptible. By toning the digestive organs and
the liver. and the bowels with this uneaualed
vegetable specific, physical condition is attain
ed which seems to be proof against all varieties
OF temperature and that is inimical in the air of
winter. Defensive medication is a precaution
which should never be neglected when danger is
present, and therefore ourse of the Bitters at
this season is particularly desirable, especially
fos the feeble and sickly. As a remedy for bill
iousness, dyspepsia, nervousness, and bowel COM
plants, there is nothing comparable to this
wholesome restorative

Sabbath school Postwar at Danby
Corners.

Merry Christmas, with fts usual routine
OF roast turkey, it's happy meetings and
family gatherings, its Sabbath School
Festivals and other time honored GUS
toms, with all their hallowed associations,
was duly observed by the people of this
town. The season has been an eventful
one, having brought with it some very
delightful events, for the entertainment
of all classes. 1t is seldom we have so
many events, and of so important nature
to record, in the short space of one week.
Perhaps it would not be saying too much
at this time to add, that the people of
Dandy are a wideawake people, and be-
lieve that the world moves, and the old
saying "that whatever they undertake to
do, is we'll and thoroughly done," is as
true now as it ever was.
We said Christmas was duly observed
here by all classes, bnt it is more particu-
larly of the Sabbath School Festivals of
which we with to speak, there having
been three, the report of two of which has
been published in the HERALD. The
Festival held under the auspices of the
M. E. Church. at the Corners, came off on
Monday evening, Dec. 26, and as was an
ticipted was complete success. The
Sabbath School held an exhibition in con-
nection with the Christmas Tree, and al
though but little time was expended on
the exercises, the arrangements were all
successfully carried carried out.
A platform with curtains was erected,
on either side of which two large Christ
mas Trees were arranged, and loaded with
presents of every description, and al
though the trees were we'll filled, SO
numerous were the articles presented,
that room for many Of them was not
found upon the trees, and they were piled
upon tables and upon the platform. The
evergreen trees, upon which the many
costly articles, consisting of silverware,
gold and silver watches, silk dresses, furs,
etc., etc, as well as toys of all kinds for
the delight of the children, we're taste
fully arranged, and presented pleasing
and charming appearance, and was high.
ly creditable to those who performed the
work.
The exercises were opened with sing

CHANCES FOR BUSINESS MIN
In WALLINGFORD.

The Girl of the Period an 0ld-Fash

In 1917, the "Simple Cobbler of
Agawam" wrote in Massachusetts as
follows OF the ladies' dresses Of that
period: II can make myself sick at
the time with comparing the dazzling
splendor wherewith our gentlewo-
men are embellished in some former
habits with the goose-down where
with they are now surcingled and de-
bauched. We have about FIVE or six
of them in our colony. If | meet
any OF them accidentally, | cannot
cleanse my phansie Of them for a
moneth after. 1t is enow to break
the heart for to see our goodly wo-
men imprisoned III French cages,
peering out Of their hood-holes big
bonnets) for some men of mercy to
help them with little wit, and no
body to relieve them. 1t is no mar
vel they wear drailes on the hinder
part of their heads, leaving nothing
as, it seems, in the fore part but a
few squirrels brains to help them
frisk from one ill-iavored fashion to
another. 1t is no little labor to be
continually putting up English wo.
men into outlandish casks, who, if
they be not shifted anew once IN a
few months, grew too sour for their
husbands. When l hear gentle
dame INQUIRE what IS the newest fash

all haste, whatever it be. l low at
her as the very gizzard of a tritle,the
product of the quarter Of a cipher

The Song of the Waves.

We are born of the Infinite, measure less
sea,
Children Of laughter and tears:
Our chant rolls on eternally.
With its burden of hopes and fears;
We laugh as of old with our countless smile
And ihc heart Of man 10 glad ths while.
We are oceans offspring: the sea gods win
We DO at his bidding slwsy,
We sport in the sun, and our O. ests are still;
And the children as they play
By the cleaning marge Of our mighty sire
Have never thought of the sea- gods ire.
We laughingly carry on laughing breast
The delcate shallop above
BY our glttering spray the keel caressed
Can only tell Of our love;
And the careless crew on their seward,
Little know they Of the sea- god $ wrath!
But stranger and sadder sights know We
And sadder sounds do We hear:
The note Of the strong mans agony
Our waters the dead mans bier:
When oceans heart is with wrath possessed,
Speed we our fathers stern behest.
And sadder song than tongue may tell
Could we sing Of mortal woes;
OF our wrathful revel-the waters he'll
What lime the death-wind blows.
When the spirit of death is upon the sea,
Deaths fit instruments then are we.
By tempest maddened, or lulled in play,
The sea-gods bidding We do Away.
