C. \ \ \ M. - \ Flea For Factory People. Yon may think we factory people Are an unimportant lot; And the reason why God made us Was He kinder just forgot; And after He'd created us He thought He'd let us stay And scramble 'round on earth awhile To pass the time away. Well, I know we are unimportant In one sense of the word, T7rk?? fi-k flio t.rnmrkQ nf partblv fame We are happy and contented, And have bnt little time to grieve. While the rattle of the spindle", The slabber or the loom Pats sorrow, care or pain to flight Or dispels a elond of gloom. We all forget oar troubles And oar trials here below, As we listen to our shuttles, While they rattle to and fro; Yes, we watch the busy shuttle, As back and forth it speeds, And nrif'h nlpnjsnrp. rcnf/Vh thfi r.nt marks A-coming through the reeds. Oh! if I was a millionaire Or financially so stout I could down the whole of Lexington And the country 'round about, I couldn't then be satisfied Unless I had to go And set my looms a-running When I heard the whistle blow. Say you don't like factory people? Well, that's sinful, I declare; If by chance you get to heaven, There'll be factory people there; When there you meet with us you, Please don't elevate your nose; We'll not have black oil on our hands Nor cotton on our clothes.

In sickness, if a certain hidden nerve goes wrong, theu the organ that this nerve controls will also surely fail. It maybe a stomach nerve, or it may have given strength and support to the ho.arr or kidneys. It was Dr. Shoop that first pointed to this vital truth. Dr. Shoop's Restorative was not made to dose the stomach nor to temporarily stimulate the heart or kidneys. That old-fashioned method is ail wrong. Dr. Shoop's Restorative goes directly to these~?ailinrrirmirtenprvrs. The remarkable iic cess of this prescription demonstrates the wisdom of treating the actual cause of these failing organs.
