MY LITTLE GEORGIA ROSE.
my
In a Georgia town, 1 met,
On a day I'll ne'er forget,
The sweet Southern lass whom fate de
emed I'd wed.
When she gently whispered, ''Yes,"
Nothing could my joy express,
For that was the sweetest word that
e'er was said.
Her old father said, ''My boy,
May your lives be fill'd with joy,
Tho' t'will break my heart, this plan
that you propose;
Ali the sunshine in my life
Will depart when she's your wife,
When you carry North my little Geor
gia Rose.
When I took his Rose away,
For a while he wrote each day,
Then the letters seldom came, his love
to tell;
And we grieved to learn at last,
That his health was failing fast,
Bo we journeyed South for one long,
last farewell.
•'Life seems empty now," ho said,
Since my darling child is wed,
Tho' her happiness I never would op
pose.
From the day her mother died,
She was always by my side
'Till you took away my little Georgia
Rose.

' Papa, I'm so sad and lonely,"
Tearfully sobbed a little child;
" Since dear Mama's gone to Heaven,
Papa, darling, you've not smiled.
1 will speak to her and tell her,
That we want her to come home;
Just you listen and I'll call her
Through the telephone."
chorus:
Hello, Central! Give me Heaven,
For my Mama's there.
You will find her with the angels
On the golden stairs;
She'll be glad it's me who's speaking,
Call her, won't you please?
For I surely want to tell her
We are so lonely here."
When the girl received the message,
Coming o'er the telephone,
How her heart thrilled in that moment,
How the wires seemed to moan!
" I will answer just to please her:
Yes, dear heart, I'll soon come home."
" Kiss me, Mama, kiss your darling,
Through the telephone."
Repeat Chorus:
" Hello, Central! Give me Heaven, etc.'

rubbed some of the liniment on the can

relief, I decided to continue to use the

Millionaires' Poor Stomach.
The worn-out stomach of the over-fed
millionaire is often paraded in the pub
lic prints as a horrible example of the
evils attendant on the possession of
great wealth. But millionaires are not
the only ones who arc ifflicted with bad
stomachs. The propo lion is far great
er among the toilers. Dyspepsia and
indigestion are ramp; it among these
people, and they suffer far worse tor
tures than the millionaire unless they
avail themsnlvas of a standard medicine
like Green's August Flower, which has
been a favorite household remedy for all
stomach troubles for over thirty-five
years. August Flower rouses the torpid
liver, thus creating appetite and insur
ing perfect digestion. It tones and
vitalizes the entire system and makes
life worth living, no matter what your
station. Trial bottles 25c.; regular size
