According to a celebrated anatomist
there are upwards of 100000 little
glands In the human stomach. These
glands pour out the digestive juices,
which dissolve or digest the food. In
digestion is want of juice, weakness of
glands, need OF help to restore the
health Of these organs. The best and
most natural help 1s That given by
Shaser Digestive Cordial. Natural,
because it supplies the material>nesded
by the glands to prepare the digestive
Juices Because it strengthens and in
vIgorates the glands and the stomach
until they are able to do their work
alone. Sh 'ker Digestive Cordial cures
indig stion certainly AMI permanently.

THE FARMERS LOT,

The farmer is a happy manor shou't
be, don't you know,
He doesn't have thing to do but pillow
and reap and SOW;
He sleeps till fear o'clock each morn,
then goes sbeus his tasks,
Gets three square meals each working
day, and that is all he asks.
He hires q man to d, his Wsrk, when
| he can raise the price,
Feeds him On pork and johnnycaks,
| potatoes, .nush and rice;
When Autumn gilds the towering hills,
he comes to town and votos.
and settles up his winters bills By
issuing bis notes.
He always has one suit Of clothes, and
alb, often be has two;
For footwear he prsf0rs boat, and
never wears q shoe;
And when the summer comes he sheds
his duds to 'scape the heat,
And doesn't have to don his coat when
he siis down to eat.
He keeps a wagon and span with
which to drive to town;
His wife was never known to be with
cut bingham gown;
His children, too, are fit and sto 1T
t5ey're not brought up on cake,
And never cry all night beca use their
little stomachs ache.
He needs no money in his pur Sc, his
credits always good;
He takes the weekly paper and he pays
for it in wood;
The N erchsnts furnish him dry goods,
and groceries as well,
Because they know some day he'll have
some pork or wheat to sell.
Ah, happy is the man who dwells upon |
the farm, apart
from the noisy cities, crowded towns
and commences busy mart.
'erene he lives, nor gives one thought
to boarding piles of pelf.
Iy dearest hope is that some day I'll
have farm myself.
