FIREWORKS THAT WENT
OFF WELL.

There were just two Yates
boys and no more, but they con-
tanned a lot of boy to the inch.
They liked green apples. They
liked to go in swimming, and
several times had barely escaped
drowning. They played End
ians and Whites" on the wood
shed roof with pine-shingIe
bowie knives and tomahawks.
They were also very patriotic, and
that is why this account, the
only official one goes on rec
ord.
For many years the Yates boys
had celebrated the Fourth Of
July by getting up shortly after
midnight and firing OF cannon
and some other things under
their neighbors' windows. But
at last there came a time when
it seemed absolutely necessary
that they do something new.
Finally, after great deal Of
discussion, it was agreed that in
stead Of getting up early and
making people miserable before
daylight, they would keep their
prtriotism and noise tightly bot
tied till evening and then sur
prise the neighborhoOd with q
grand display of fireworks. And
to this end they toiled for weeks,
doing anything and everything
to earn penny. They sold
scrap iron for almost at nothing
a pound. They peddlod hand
bills, a job not quite in keeping
with the Yates family pride.
They even took out the tacks
from the parlor carpet at a re-
markable nigh yet reasonable
figure, and give it such a faithful
beating that the family council
decided to let the boys have what
there was left of it for their room
and get new one for the parlor.
In short, it would be hard to tell
what those two youngsters didn't
do to earn a little money.
Now, on tho day before the
Fourth, all the people round
about received invitations to at
tend gorgeous display of fire.
works on the following evening,
out back of the Yates barn,
These invitations were printed
by Johnny, who could print bet
ter than Ernest, Johnny didn't
spell pyrotechnics as it is some
times spelled, but several bright
people said that they liked the
new way much better for {
change.
Each invitation contained or
official program, arranged witt
great care and leading up to
grand climax. First was to come
a tiny pinpots, mines, sky rock
cts and what not--a big lot Of
things all snugly packed away
in a box by the clerk at The
store, who had helped them make
their selection and arrange the
program. The exhibition was
to conclude with the explosion
Of three cannon iiro-crackorc
whose tails had been twisted
firmly together,
The night came round at last
and it WASH raining for n Won

Not only did tho noighbor9 como,

If you eat what you like, and digest it,
you will surely be strong and healthy.
But if you don't digest il, you might
almost as well not eat, for what good
can your food do you if it doesn't t nourish
you?
If you find that you can't digest it,
there is a simple help for your stomach.
1t is Shaker Digestive Cordial, made
by the Shakers of Mount Lebanon. 1t
has never failed to cure the worst case
of Indigestion.
Strength and health comes from the
food you eat, after it has been digested
and has gone into the blood.
The best tonic is digested food. The
best aid to digestion Shaker Digestive
Cordial.
When you have acid eructations, nau-
sea, headache, wind, dizziness, offensive
breath, or any other symptoms of dys-
pepsia, Shaker Digestive Cordial will
cure you.
