SIESTA.

Reside me now, he sleeps while curl:
of foam
Creep nearer, up the brown width OF
the shore.
The sea sweeps in great surges, blue
to green
Advancing in high swells that curve
and roll
Ard thunder back again. No noise OF
surf
Or screaming gull disturbs him as
he rests;
No troubled thought, no problem OF
the day.
He lies in his blue bathing-suit. as
brown
And tawny as the sand that is his
bed,
One arm beneath his head, the other
stretched
Toward me. His long dark lashes and
his brow
A artists draw them for a perfect
face.
His brown hair damp and curly from
the sea
Are darker for the burn of sun and
wind
The glowing copper color of his skin.
He lies contented while he sleeps re-
freshed,
Invigorated by the tonic sea.
The salt wind blows, the tide spills
on the beach,
Gus cry and distant buoys made
their moan
While this boy sleeps and dreams
and is alone. ...

Another Question
About CARDUI
MOTHERS RECOMMEND 1T


"Why do so many MOTHERS rec
ommend Cardui to their daughters?'
Isn't it but natural that any good
mother should tell her daughters
about Cardui if the mother herself
felt that she had been benefited by
this medicine?
1t is impressive that so many wo-
men report having taken Cardui on
the advice of their mothers.
Cardui has been found to benefit
women when weakened by malnutri-
ton (poor nourishmenD and il
helps to relieve much discomfort at
monthly periods.

does not help you, consult a physi-
