If some good fairy should appear,
and offer to grant your hearts de-
sire, what would you choose?
Wealth? It's a transient thing
that brings its own cares.
Happiness? It's an elusive thing
which we keep by giving away.
Health? That's the best gift.
Health is riches that gold cannot
buy and surely health is cause
enough for happiness.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound may be the good fairy
who offers you better health.

my tongue and throat too. Never a
regret, never a protest, no matter how
hard hit it up, morning to midnight.
You may think you're all set on the
matter of smokes. I want to say right
here and now that unless you have signed
on with Prince Albert, you've been miss

yourself a tidy red tin of this wonderful
tobacco and see. That's tip!
