PLEASURE'S END
Fortunes quest and doting love
Are but shadows flying,
Worldly pleasures, feats and balls
Are but fountains drying.
):\ll our fruit and mad pursuits;
~ Idle thoughts deceiving!
Can not bring a singe thing -
In this life’s bereaving.
Days of pleasure are like leaves
Through the autumn fading
They've run their race and come
a pace
Through their season’s waiting.
They leave behind an empty treas
ure
With their labors burning,
The moments fly, they pass us by,
Time is never turning,
Pleasure yields to life and truth
Humble service giving
To human needs with kindly deeds,
This is pleasure living. §

Used Black-Draught
30 Years,
Cameron, Okla—“Tl have used
Thedford’s Black-Draught for about
thirty years, and certainly ocught to!
know by this time what a good medi- |
cine it is,” cays Mr. T, L. Bostier, a
well-known farmer of this place. Mr.
Bostier has passed his three-score-and
tenth year, but declares his health
atill is good, “and I can say Black-
Draught did its part”
“Where there is a lot of malaria, '
liver medicine Is a necessity, and I |
have never found one better than |
Black-Draught,” continues the Ckla-
Loman., “It is cne that I know to be
reliabla., I sure use it for the liver, |
gtomach, constipation, indigostion, and |
it has done me a world of geod. We
use it for the femily, and it gives
satisfaction,
“Most trouble, or sickness, comes
from the liver, and if taken in time |
can be avoided. That is why I use
Black-Draught as I do. I am much'
pleased with resulis oblained.” i
Thedford’s Black-Draught is purely |
vegetable. It acis on the bowels, gent- |
ly stimulating the liver, and helps in- |
creasa the nermal flow of bile into tha |
intestinea. It assists in the dlgestion!
of food, and relieves constipation in &
prompt and natural way. 1
