YOU Won't Mind T aking COB LIVER
 OIL
 This Way

c. 0. D. TABLETS present cod liver oil to you in the form of dry, easily swallowed tablet which leaves no unpleasant or sickening taste in your mouth. ALL the good qualities of the best Norwegian Cod Liver Oil are contained in these tablets and ALL the objectionable qualities of the oil are absent. These tablets excel the plain oil in many ways, few of the most important of which we list be- low.
 c. 0. D. TABLETS are easy to take inasmuch as they have no repul- sive taste or odor. The plain oil is very hard to take because of its dis agreeable odor and taste.
 c. 0. D. TABLETS never cause that rising in the throat of a sickening "fishy" taste or gas such as very oft en follows the taking of the plain cod liver oil.
 C. 0. D. TABLETS never upset the stomach or disturb digestion. The con- tinued use of plain cod liver oil is cer- tain to nauseate the stomach and seri- ously retard the processes of digestion.
 c. o. D. TABLET not only possess all the valuable principles of cod liver oil but they also contain the Hypophos- phites of Lime and Soda and a sufi- cient quantity of that gentle laxative, Licorice. to carry off any excess of oil should you take more of the TAB LETS than your system can assimilate.
 c. o. D. TABLETS are guaranteed to be better in every way than pure cod liver oil for the treatment of La Grippe, Weak Lungs, Consumption. Pulmonary Complaints, Wasting Dis eases, Loss of Weight, General Debil- +ity, Nervous Weakness, Malnutrition and all other Ailments caused by an impoverished condition of the blood.

THE SOLDIER AND FARMER

l am a soldier; but who art thou
YEARLY plodding after the plow?
What praise have you who toll and
till?
Glory and fame are for those who kill.
What is it to garner grain from the
earth?
The toiler is only Of humble birth,
He dies and his name is soon forgot,
No mausOleum marks his resting spot.
He has only Furnished fruit and bread
To the living; he can boast no dead.
The plowman was shocked at this
rude salute,
And stood, a moment, asto1ished and
mute.
He gazed at the soldier in belt and
sword,
Then carefully answered each boast-
full word.
Thou art a soldier, death is thy trade,
For murder alone thy weapons are
made.
You slaughter in battle, you murder
by stealth,
1Ou u0FSI CISdIC . uOIId4 VI wealth.
You only consume, you only destroy
All commerce, all business, all peace
you annoy.
Around you, before you, you spread
CONSERVATION,
Behind you, is death and sac desola-
ton,
Fond fathers and mothers weep over
sons slain,
And tears Of the widow are poured
out like rain
You're the curse of the world, the
blight of the earth,
Groans, anguish and fear make the
sum Of your worth.
-OaVid B. Page, in Humanity.

A HUNDRED YEARS FROM NOW.

There's picture in the window
OF little shop know,
With boys and girls dressed as they
were
A hundred years ago.
And since I saw it l have thought
An keep on thinking how
The children, may be, will be dressed
A hundred years from now.
Will girls wear caps or farthinggales,
Or hoops in grand array?
Will they wear bows like butterflies,
Just as they do today?
Will boys wear jackets short. Or tie
Their hair in queues? Just how
They'll really look, II like to know
A hundred years from now.
What do you think the girls and boys
VIII eat in those far days?
Will they be fed on breakfast foods
In many sorts Of ways?
Will ali the good and tasty things
{ Be worse for them than rice?
VIII ice cream soda make them sick
And everything that's nice?
VIII childrens books have pictures
then,
Or just all reading be?
Perhaps they'll be band-painted and
Most beautiful to see.
But when I think of those I have
l truly don't see how
They can be any prettier
A hundred years from now.
