A Great Truth.

There was 4 man in our town,
And he was lobster wise;
He thought he'd run his business right
And never advertise.
He filed the store with lots of goods
Good goods they were. and low
In price; but not word said he
To let the people know.
They had the money in their clothes.
They had the wish to buy,
And this wise man, who knew they had
or printers ink was shy.
The quality and price, he thought
Were quite enough to win.
And so he waited day by day
To see the trade rush in.
But did 1t rush? Oh. yes, il rushed
And he was sore surprised
To see 1t rush across the street
70 where they advertised.
The lobster-wise stuck II out;
'rhe quality and price
OF what he had he knew would win,
And they would quite suffice.
At last the sheriff came around

And then the lobster-wise one got

fairly considered an indication Of the

fact that the Messenger has more than

When requested for such a prescrip-

must make the kidneys do their work

must be made to strain out of the
blood the waste matter and acids that
cause rheumatism; the urine must be
neutpalized so it will no longer be a
source of irritation to the bladder. and
most of all. you must keep these acids
from forming in the stomach. This
is the cause of stomach trouble and
