age Is its guarantee. For more than thirty years it has
been in constant use for the relief of Constipation, Flatulency,
Wind Colic and Diarrhoea; allaying Feverishness nrisii;;

A PLAIN M AN.
Dey hain't no complaint in dis sysiem o' mine
Fer things what am useless an' rare;
1 hook up de mule an' 1 swing ler de line,
1 breathe de fresh air an' 1 drink de sunshine
An' whistle fer keeping off care.
De white fo'ks may have all de silver an' gold
De saphire, de ruby, de pearl,
De furro' de bear fer keeping off cold
But give me de fields whar de flowers unfold
Away f'om yer life wid a whirl.
De sweat o' my brow, when nil shines in de sun,
Am alio' yer jems I desire;
Hit's wuth all de crowns since de kingin begun,
Likewise all de laurels o' victories won
By biggots, wid cannons an' fire.
De birds furnish music, de sun gives me light
De moon an' de stars g'ard my rest,
An' 1 wake wid de pep for renewin' de fight
An' bless de good Lawd for a keen appetite,
Likewise fer de sleep o' de iesi.
1 say hit ag'in, in dis system o' mine
Dey hain'i no complaint fer de rare,
F.gyptun flesh-pots wid de sparklin wine;
De big striped milyun, fresh off o' de vine
You can't duplicate 'im no where.
So give me de fruits o' de plain, honist toil,
A life o' de plain simple bliss;
De breathe o' de rose, an' de fresh broken soil,
Away f'om de din where dey's nuthin' ter spoil
De flavor o' love's simple kiss.
