Cure for Dysentery

while 1 was in Ashland, Kansas, a
gentleman, overheard me speaking of
Chamberlain Collie Diarrhoea Rem
edy," writes William Whitelaw, of
Des Moines, Iowa. He told me in
detail of what it had done for his fam
lily, but more especially his daughter
who was lying at the point of death
with violent attack of dysentery,
and had been given up by the family
physician. Some of his neighbors ad-
vised him to give Chamberlain's Collie
and Diarrhoea Remedy, which he did,
and fully believes that by doing so
saved the life of his child He stated
that he had also used this remedy
himself with equally gratifying re-
suits"

THE VOICE OF A CIGARETTE
By F.. ID. KOontz

The cigarette says it cannot do much
To these who fall for its magic touch,
Nervous troubles / can add to youth,
In mound Of lies / can bury truth;
| subtract from the work of hand and
brain,
While | multiply each ache and pain
] can divide your mental power,
Add misery to each feeting hour.
Your interest / can take from work
Transform you into worthless shirk
With crime can III fertile brain
And mark your life with a saffron
stain.
l can make your heart, the heart of
thief,
l can brand your home with an I'M
named grief
! can add grey hairs to a youthful
brow,
Meath a weight of years I can make
you bow,
! can make you into shackled slave
And send your soul to an early grave.
If that's not enough for one to do.
To all these ills I can add few.
