THE CHRISTMAS GIFTS FROM
HOME
BY A HOLLYlTE

BY A HOLLYlTE
When the house is decked with cedar
And the holly berries klesm,
And the anxious Christmas shoppers
Seem to pour in endless stream.
"Oh its Christmas; yes, its Christmas, :"
All the children ksily shout.
There's Old Santa in the window,
And all his presents out.
And the children in their glory,
Leave their marks on window psnes,
OF the decorated windows.
Where Old Santa Claus now reikns.
And the cooking in the kitchen,
Leads your thoughts far away,
To that patient, sweet faced mother,
And the package on the way.
And the postman he will find you
No matter where you roam,
With that welcome Christmas package
Filled with Christmas gifts from home.
There's noise out on the pavement
And a step upon the stair,
Here comes the laden postman
Looking cross as any bear.
His brow with sweat is dripping
And his checks are tinsed with red,
My pack is overladen,
1t has the weight Of Lead
Then you look the addresses over
And you find its here At last,
With half a dozen labels
And q strink to keep it fast.
1t brisks thought Of country
To the busy throbbink town.
With its wresths of holly berries
And autumn leaves 30 brown.
The gifts SO nicely labeled,
Oh! how your thoughts will roam,
10 the loved ones who have sent you
Those Christmas gifts from home.

STOMACH CENTER
OF HUMAN LIFE
ALL ELSE SECONDARY

The immense success which has fol.
lowed l.. T. Cooper during the past
year with his new preparation has ex.
ceeded anything Of the kind ever be.
fore witnessed in most of the leading
cities where the young man has intro.
duced the medicine. Cooper has a
novel theory. He believes that the
human stomach is directly responsible
for most disease. To quote his own
words from an interview upon his ar.
rival in an eastern city: THE average
man or woman cannot be sick If the
stomach is working properly. To be
sure, there are diseases of a virulent
nature, such as cancer, tuberculosis,
diabetes, ETC., which are organic, and
are not traceable to the stomach, but
even fevers can, in nine cases out of
ten, be traced to something taken into
the stomach. All of this half.sick,
nervous exhaustion that Is now SO
common, is caused by stomachic con-
ditions, and 1t is because my rem
edy will and does regulate the stom-
ach that I am meeting with such sue
cess.
ITO sum the matter up--a sound di.
gestive apparatus that Is doing its
full duty, getting every particle of vi
tally out Of the food by transferring
1t to the bowels in a perfectly digest
ed state-this above all else brings
health"
Mr.. A. c. Brock, chef Of the Brock
Restaurant, Market District, Boston,
Mass, who Is a staunch believer in
Mr.. Cooper's theory and medicine, has
this to say: Il had chronic indiges-
ton for over three years. l suffered
terribly, and lost about thirty pounds.
l was a physical wreck when | started
this Cooper medicine, a month or so
ago. To-day / am as well as | ever
was in my life. l am no longer nerv-
Gus. my food does not distress me
in the least, and l have a splendid ap.
petite. / am gaining flesh very rap
idly-in fact, at the rate of a pound
a day. | would not believe n medi.
cine on earth could have done for me
what this has done. It is a remark

A travelling mar called on the man

travelling man that the manager
wouldn't see him.

In a few minutes the boy returned
from his second trip. Say" remarked
the boy, the boss told me TO tell you
