they figure the other kid is going
to jump off and let them fall, and
maybe bruise some part of him up.

Christmas program and would en-
joy a large crowd, especially all of

maybe have a child who will fur-
nish a part of the exercises, and

nounce the date later.

IS WONDERFUL
“All my neighbors are talking
about the wonderful change Sargon
Everything I ate seemed to dis-
agree with me, I had a lot of trou-
ble with my kidneys, and my back
hurt nearly all the time. I was
constantly taking medicine for in-
active liver and constipation, and
would sometimes get so dizzy I’d
have to hold to something to keep
from falling. My blood seemed
thin, I suffered terrible headaches
and was so nervous I could hardly
sleep.
“Sargon is the first and only
medicine I found that gave me last-
ing relief. My appetite is splendid
and everything agrees with me.
Sargon Pills rid me of biliousness
and constipation entirely. I’m no
longer nervous, sleep fine, and my
color is clear and healthy. I have-
n’t one of my old troubles left and
feel like a new woman. I can n
understand why so many prang
