The Legend of St. Stephen, First Of
the Noble Army of Martyrs.
Ever since that first Christmas eve
the cock has crowed all night long on
the anniversary to keep away evil
spirits, for the cock Is a holy bird and

his dear Lords.

roast cock ON the platter shall crow be-

Hardly were the words out Of his
mouth when the cock stretched his
neck and crowed Justify, "Christus ma

examination of medical experts, for it
contains no alcohol, so injurious to deli

when long continued. Neither does it
contain any narcotics, or other harmful,

enters into it that is not highly recon-
mended by the most advanced and
