Several years ago George Ade
was visiting London and, feeling
lonesome, suddenly spotted a man
he thought he knew back home.
He rushed up eagerly and gave
the fellow a resounding whack on
the back, causing his glasses to
fly off, his hat to sail into the air
and his armload of bundles to fall
into the street.
Then he discovered his mistake
and apologized profusely to the
stranger,
explaining
that
he
thought the man to be an old
friend.
“ Oh, that's quite all right, old
chap,” said the Englishman, "but
—er—tell me, does your friend
care for this sort of thing?”

Here’s a way to overcome con
stipation without harsh laxatives.
Drink juice of 1 Sunkist Lemon in
a glass of w ater fir s t thing on
arising.
Most people find this all they
need— stimulates normal bowel ac
tion day after day!
Lemon and w a te r is good fo r
you. Lemons are among the rich
est sources of vitamin C, which
combats fatigue, helps resist colda
and infections. They supply valu
able amounts of vitamins B, and
P. They pep up appetite. They
a lk a ltn ize, aid digestion. Lemon
and water has a fresh tang too—
clears the mouth, wakes yoa up,
starts you going.
T ry this grand wake-up drink
10 mornings. See i f it doesn’t help
ou! Use C a lifo r n ia S u n k is t

The secretary, quite calm, re
plied: “ Hold on for a bit. You’ll
get a better offer.”
