THE GARDEN

What wond'rous life Is this / lead
Ripe apples drop about my head;
The luscious clusters OF the vine
Upon my mouth do crush their wine
The nectarine. and curious peach.
Into my hands themselves do reach:
Stumbling on melons. as I pass.
Insnared with flowers. fall on grass
Meanwhile the mind. from pleasure less.
Withdraws into It's happinsss
The mind. that ocean where each kind
Does straight It's own resemblance find;
Yet II creates, transcending these.
Far other worlds. and other seas,
Annihilating all that's made.
To green thought IN green shade.
Here at the fountains sliding foot.
or az some fruit trees messy root.
Casting the bodys vest aside
NV soul into the boughs does glide.
There, like a bird, IL sits and sings.
Then whets and claps its silver wings.
And TIL prepared for longer flight.
Waves In its plumes the various light.
Such was the happy garden state.
While man there walked without a mate
After place 80 pure and sweet.
What other help could yet be meet7
But twas beyond a mortal's share
To wander solitary there
Two paradises are In one,
To live in Paradise alone.
How well the skllful gardener drew

Where. from above the milder sun
Does through n fragrant zodiac run.
And. as IL works. the industrious bee

The Ghost Shin

Among the war stories that British
naval men feel free to tell now is one
about a ghost ship" whose mystery
has never been solved.
In 1917 convoy Of II ships left a
British port. At dawn on the day after
sailing the escort commander discover
ed thirteen ships under his charge.
While the identity of the extra ship
was being discussed the convoy was
suddenly attacked by German light
cruisers and most of the escort and
nine Of the merchantmen We're sunk.
The Germans then made off.
Survivors positively assert that
there were thirteen ships and that the
mysterious vessel disappeared as
strangely as she had appeared. They
are certain that the ship was not sunk.
Official inquiries failed to throw any
light on the nature of the craft. II
was ascertained that she could not
have been a disguised German raid
or, and her presence was logged" by
the escort commander.

AHEAD OF THE SILLY SEASON
Discussion Started as to Why Cow In
VariabIy Arises With Her Hind
Quarters Foremost.

lnquiring minds in Connecticut are
graphing the Old-age question why
COW, which is to say the genus hos,
rises from redundancy by elevating her
anterior quarters first, whereas horse
reverses the process and pig appears
to have no predictions but to be sole
ly concerned, when there is a prospect
of something TO eat in sight, to get
in motion toward it all at once.
Generally speaking, it can of course
be said that COW takes the method
physiolOgically the easiest for ner in
Rochester Post Express. The head
end-up procedure probably produces
muscular stresses and interior dscom-
forts which she understands better
than she can explain. 1t is open to
question also if she ever in all her
nominations reflected on the matter /;
nor is II clear that it is worth our
while to do so, since it is only an in
consequential fact with an immaterial
reason behind it. Vt is an interesting
bit Of information, and it might be
profitable in Imaginable emergencies

and which is the danger end Of her 10
be avoided. But the obscure cause Of
ii is of no apparent practical import
ance, for it is just one of those things
that are SO and might as well be so
as something else.
II seems fair from all that is known
Of the COW, TO acquit her Of any dispo-
sltion to do things hind end foremost
out Of CantankerousneSs. or to cling
to a notion or method through per
verSity or pride because it happens to
be hers. There is no evidence Of that
domineering spirit in her or of a will
ful insistence in having her own way.
She does the things that are TO be done
sequentially, in order. settles her press
ing problems first and leaves 10 the fu-
ture others that may arise. Imperiled
by enemies. her way would be to fight

be limited, but there is reason to be
lieve that as far as she does see she
sees clearly, never out Of focus: that
her intuitionS are sure, and that. while
she may sometimes seem 10. She never
really does things wrong end first or
clings to q course when conclusive
reasons for abandoning it appear. On
the whole, therefore, it seems profit

Make This Test For
Acid Stomach

There are millions Of people who
suffer almost daily FROM the horrors
of an MISUNDERSTANDING sour,
gassS, stomach; distressing heartburn :;
sickening fOod-repeating painful
blOat and that miserable, pulled up.
iumpy feeling after eating. Many of
these people have tried treatment after
treatment; medicine after medicine !;
Others have gone to doctors and stom-
Rch specialists and some to hospitals,
but In spite of all of their efforts they
have obtained no lasting relief or a
permanent cure.
These symptoms simply mean acid
stomach. If allowed to run on, they
are very likely to cause a lot of Seri-
Dus trouble. Dyspepsia, rheumatism,
govt, lumbagO, sclatica, splitting head
ache, dizzy spells, nervousness, sleep
lessness, mental depression, melan-
cholia, a feeling of listlessness and
n-goneness-these are just a few of
the disorders which can be traced to
acid-stomach. As matter Of fact,
acid-stOmach is often the direct cause
of those almost incurable conditions
known as catarrh OF the stomach, in
festival ulcer. and cancer Of the stom-
ach. The lives of those who suffer
from these serious troubles are moth
ing short Of daily agony. Surely,
then, you must see how important it
Is to go at once to the seat Of the
trouble - acid-Stomach. You know

ach!
Even If you are not suffering any
immediate stomach pains, but are not
feeling just as FL ami fine as you
should, you should by all means make
this test: Go to your drug store at
once and get a big box OF EATONIC.
1t is in the form Of pleasant-tasting
tablets-ycu eat them like a bit OF
candy. EATONIC is prepared for just
one purpose-cOrrecting acid-stomach
by driving out the excess acid.
EATONIC literally absOrbs the excess
acid. II brings instant relief from
the pains of indigestion, heartburn,
belching, sour gaSsy stomach bloat,
etc. It makes the stomach pure, sweet,
cool and comfortable, puts it in a nor
NAL, healthy condition, so that your
food is properly digested. You need
every bit of strength you can possibly
get out Of the food you eat-and
EATONIC helps you get It.
Don't put this test Off If you value
your future good health and happi-
ness. You run no chance at all be
cause EATONIC is absolutely guar.
anteed to give you relief or your drug
gist will refund your money. The
cost is a mere trifie.
