The Best Proof

Stafford Springs Citizens Cannot
Doubt It
Doan's Kidney Pills we're used
They brought benefit.
The story was told to Stafford
Springs residents.
Time has strengthened the evidence
Has proven the result lasting.
The testimony is from this locality
The proof convincing.
Jacob Stengel, 1874 Prospect St.
Rockville, Conn.,, says: "My kid
neys were disordered for three years,
causing much pain in the small of my
back and dull, nagging ache across
my loins. Kidney weakness set in
and became particularly annoying al
night Whenever I took cold, it set
tied in my kidneys, and at such times
suffered more severely than ever.
Two boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills
not only relieved the pain in my back
but corrected the kidney weakness. "
DOAN'S MADE A CURE.
After a lapse of OVER FIVE
YEARS Mr.. Stengle said: II still
think highly of Doan's Kidney Pills.
Since they cured me some years ago,
I have not been bothered by kidney
trouble, and can safely say that the
cure is permanent.

~HE forest in a whisper spoke,
"A Vine to flower and pine to oak,
From holy hilled Jerusalem
~ To where, upon it's leafy hem,
The humble village chung
Calm Bethlehem, dark, yet like gem,
Enwrapped with light, as jewels are,
BY trembling radiance of the star.
The trees coming wonder told
While yet the birds, their songs unsung,
Dreamed of the coming of their young.
But though of splendor bright
The forest breathed, it's boughS We're huns
With sable shade; no taper's beam
Cast through that dusk it's happy CLEAN
The angels sung; the shepherds came;
In the lone manager shone flame
That burned with supernatural light.
The pine trees whispered through the
night,
And though the Saviour's birth
Changed not their shadowy gloom tc
white,
They in a patient darkness still
Bowed. signing. and obeyed his will.
Vanished is that old forest now
And wthered wholly, root and bough.
Yet in all Christian realms of earth
Springs new forest, full of mirth
That lights with radiant cheer
the evergreens enduring worth,
and to that whispering prophet brings
A glory of the King of kings.
For all our merry Christmas trees
Glow fair with flame and revelries
That cluster round them year by year,
And fir and pine, or far or near,
Live upright, gladly die,
Knowing that they to God are dear,
And bring to man, illuminate,
torch that leads to heavens gate.
Even so the measure slow of time,
Like a rhythm closed with rhine,
Raises the patient soul on high,
erlngs joy to life, even from sigh,
And in conclusion sweet
Dark grief with gladness can ally.
So shines the forest when we meet
With light and song, Christ's birth ia
greet.
