A Funny Game.

A few friends met the other night in a Newtown store to spend a joval 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 live'y, but times were hard, so' they [did not care to play for money. Smith, however, spied a box of Fletcher's billious 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 fast and furious. Simpson Bwallowed five, Jones got away with four and Smith and Hopkins two each and Mac got off scot free. The game terminated by a general exodus at 3 p.m. for Dr Fletcher's pills never labour in vain. They are the b ?st au.l mildest pills made and are sold by all chemists and druggist every where : being a positive, safe, and reliable cure for constipation, liver complaint, headache &o. They always give satisfaction. The proprietors give away £50 (in seven prizes) at Xroas for the seven first nearest guesses sent in, as to how many of these pills a Clements Tonic bottle (now full) holds. A guess form is around every box, and all s ich forms are eligible for this competition that come from around a box. One box of Fletcher's Pills proves their virtues .and they can be obtained everywhere at Is or post free 13 penny stamps, from F. M, Clements, Newtown, N.S.W.
