III tell you why Jerry's pocket
book was so important TO him
the morning he lost and recov-
cred II on the train.
The reason goes back a few
days. Jerry is a lad of gusty
and unpredictable enthusiaSms
and is TO be relied upon TO go to
extremes. For example, he
makes it practice not TO en-
gage in crap games except the
nickel and dime variety.
He said that once in his re-
cruit days he lost his whole pay
in a single day for three months
running, and had to write one
for haircut and tobacco money.
So he swore off the big games
and he almost always sticks to
his resolve. Almost-but not
always.
Jerry is rather fond of his
beer-without doubt he drinks
more than the rest of our party
put together. Not that he is

BrucelloSis is caused by three

three strains are called the

The most frequent way the
disease is contracted is by drink

which have come from cows in

Some patients contract the dis
ease by direct contact with in

Poor Digestion? 11.
 Headachy? 0u Sour or Upset? 00 Tired-LiSuess? %

Do you feel headachy and upset due to poorly digested food? To feel cheerful and happy again your food must be digested properly.
 Each day, Nature must produce about two pints of a vital digestive juice to help digest your food. If Nature fails. your food may remain undigested-' leaving you headachy and irritable.
 Therefore, you must increase the flow of this digestive juice. Carter's Little Liver Pills increase this flow quickly = often in as little as 30 minutes. And, you're on the road to feeling better.
 Don't depend on artificial aids to counteract indigestion-when Carter's Little Liver Pills aid digestion after Ma ture's own order. Take Carter's Little Liver Pills as directed. Get them at any drug store. Only 10t and 25f.
