They are overlooking OTHERS, In their frantic search for pelf; Seldom thinking of their BROTH ERS— All their thoughts intent on SELF; They are out to GET a living— Some may starve, but THEY must eat; Let the “rich ones” do the giving— While with others THEY “com pete.” But, somehow’, they fail to “make it”— One by one, their plans explode; Wealth is here—they try to take it, And shift off their pauper’s load; In their efforts they’re unceasing, And they battle day and night, But their burdens are increasing— All their cherished dreams take flight! i It is time that we were waking To the fact that we must GIVE; Those intent on always TAKING, Only see the “I” in LIVE; If we’ll wisely work with others, We will win, as sure as fate; Are you READY? Fall in, broth ers! Here’s the word-“CO-OPER'ATE”! o One-third of New Y’ork City’s pop ulation is foreign-born. WOMAN AFRAID TO EAT ANYTHING “I was afraid to eat because I al ways had stomach trouble after wards. Since taking Adlerika I can eat and feel fine.” (signed) Mrs. A. Howard. ONE spoonful Adlerika removes GAS and often brings sur prising relief to the stomach. Stops that full, bloated feeling.
