A FUNNY GAME.

A few friends met the other night in a Newtown store to spend a jovial evening, but as they were all teetotallers and none of them drank anything stronger than Clements Tonic, drunkenness was out of the question. Mac proposed a game at euchre, and Jones said they had better play for something just to give the game an interest and make it lively, hut times were hard, so they did n )t care to plav for money. Smith, however, spied a box of Fletcher’s bilious and liver pills, and proposed that each time a man was beaten he should take a pill, and this made the game lively and the fun was fast and furious. .Simpson swallowed five, Jones got away with four and Smith and Hopkins two each and Mae got off scot free. The game terminated by a general exodus at 3 a.m., for Dr Fletcher’s pills never lubar in vain. They are the best and mildest pills made and are sold by all chemists and druggists everywhere ; being a positive, safe, and reliable cure for constipation, liver complaint, headache, eta They always give aa'isfaction. The proprietors give away £SO (in seven prizes) at Xmas for the seven first I nearest guesses sent in, as to how many of there pills a large Clements Tonic b it'le ! (now full) holds. A guess form is around I evey box, and all such forms are e’igible for ; this competition thit uomo from around a : b.ix.
