JUST A PACK OF LIES?
I heard a tale the other day That made me ope' my eves; But said, when I had henrd it through,. 'Twas just' a pack of lies! To tell me that a person could ' Get rid of all their ills, Their headache and their backache, Too, by taking little mils. -Determined to find out myself, A bottle I did buy, _ 'Twas parcelled up quite daintily; I took one just to try. And, lo! when I awoke next morn, I really felt quite gay; The change was most remarkable, So I took one every (lay. One word of warning I must tell. Before my tale is throughBo sure they're Doctor Horse's Pills. No other ones will do. So if you tajce my advice, You'll quickly lose .Hint pain, Thoio magic pills wili cure ills, And make you well again.—Advl. Tho shades of night were falling fast, 'fhe sky with clouds was overcast, As I homeward urged my -way, j. made a brief but wise delay: I turned into a chemist's Btore. For what I'd often bought beforeFor coughd and colds the best, bo sure. A bottle of Woods' Great Peppermint Cure. —Advt.
