REMEMBER
THE TIME
BY Jack Casey.

W Err used to get a wooden
box and q piece OF window
- glass. The box yer'd iii
with cotton. Then yer'd catch
butterflies, chloroform them and
mount EN- in the cotton with
wings spread out. And then yer'd
put the glass on top an yer had
a butterfly cabinet.
An yer'd chase butterflies with
q homemade butterfly net an
land on the poor things just as
they got settled on q fragrant
bloom. An yer had all kinds and
all colorse an once q year, every
spring, the teacher would have
all the boys bring their collec-
lions to school an hold an exhi.
bition. An everybody would study
what the different specimens was
an forget It five minutes later.
Yer used to play games on
rainy days when there wasn't no
school an yer'd have guessing
contests an the game where yer
blindfolded someone an they tried
to pin the tail on the cat on the
wall, after they'd first been spun
around three times.
An the first time yer ever
played the game where everybody
was given q cup an saucer. Id
the cup was little water The
teacher" stood faein' yer. Yer
had to do what she did. She put
a forefinger in the water IN her
cup. then rubbed her face. You
did. the same. She rubbed her
nose, cheeks. forehead, and chin.
So did you. You had to keep yer
eyes upon her. You did. There
was nothin' on her face what
ever. But. led to q mirror, you
found yourself lookin' like Topsy
or savage. For on the bottom
of your saucer was shoe blaclirf'.
Little rubber balls came out for
the first time with elastic strings
attached to 'em, with q ring to go
on your finger. Yer threw down
the bali an it snapped right back
to yer. Yer could throw II ct a
guys head an back 1t would
come.
A guy who wore button shoes

Mr.. James H. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him help
less and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of
ceaselesa study. that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the
accumulated impurities, commonly
called uric acid deposits, were dis
solved in the joints and muscles
and expelled from the body.
With this idea In mind he con-
suited physicians. made experiments
and finally compounded a prescrip-
ton that quickly and completely
banished every sign, and symptom.
He freely gave his discovery.
which he called ALLENRHU, to
others who took 1t, with what might
be called marvellous success. After
years Of urging he decided to let
sufferers everywhere know about
his discovery through the news
