The Woes OF a Party Line.

The following is one of the best
poems Of its kind ever published.
II there were more party lines on
the prairie, the poem would
perhaps be better appreciated.
However, it is too good to pass up
and those who have Rad expert
ence with party telephone lines
will find many pleasant memories
in its lines:
Neighborhood not far from here
Put in a telephone last year;
Farmers built a rural line
Instruments all talked up fine.
All you had to do was ring,
Every bell went ting-a-ling.
One for Swansons, two for Boggs,
Long and short for Old Man Scrogg
Every neighbor had his call,
Twist the crank and that was all.
Mighty nice when work was thru
TO gossip for an hour or two
With your neighbors, one by one,
Mighty nice, but lots more fun
To Overhear some other two,
Telling what was not for you.
Every time the signal rang
To the phone each farmer sprang
Shyly grinned and softly took
The receiver from the hook.
Other peoples secrets dear
Poured into his large red ear;
Slapped his leg and said, 81 swan"
Telephones is lots of fun"
Some how in a week or two,
Troubles dark began to brew.
Farmer Jones got fighting hot,
Heard Scroggs calling him sot.
Farmer Brown seemed angry too,
Heard Smith telling what he knew.
Smith heard Johnson telling lies,
Paid him off with two black eyes.
johnson heard young Ezra Boggs
Underbid him on some hogs.
Ezra overheard sneaking churl
Making love to his best girl.
Women, too, were in muss,
Raised most outrageous fuss.
Every one from Scroggs to Jones
In glass houses thro wing stones.
Now the line has silent grown
Wires rusted; poles o'erthrown.
Twenty friends are deadly foes,
Each one full of grief and woes.
Each too mad to speak word,
Cause Of things they've overheard.

The best treatment for indiges.
ton and troubles of the stomach
is to rest the stomach. 1t can be
rested by starvation or by the use
of a good digestant which will d.
gest the food eaten, thus taking the
work off the stomach. At the pro-
per temperture teaspoonful Of
kodol will wholly digest 5000
grains of food. 1t relieves the pre-
sent annoyance, puts the stomach
in shape to perform it's functions.
Good for indigestion, sour stomach,
flatulence, and dyspepsia. Kodol is
made in strict formity with the
National Pure Food and Drug law
Sold by The Right Drug Store.

GOOD SIGHT
