<p>When too much holiday cheer brings on holiday headache, bring out the Alka-Seltzer! Unlike pain pills, Alka-Seltzer is already a liquid when you take it. Ready to go to work instantly.Alka-Seltzer provides the effective pain-reliever, sodium acetylsalicylate, in a completely dissolved solution. In the first ten minutes-when you really need it-the system quickly absorbs more of this Alka-Seltzer pain-reliever.</p>
<p>When you want a moder effective pain-reliever (and a soothing stomach alkalizer) take two Alka-Seltzer tablets.</p>
<p>RELIEF IS JUST A SWALLOW AWAY</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><center><img alt="santa and the pirates" src="http://www.friskywife.com/wp-content/images/2006/09/santa-and-the-pirates.jpg" /></center>By Lucrece Hudgins Beale</p>
<p>SYNOPSIS: Pirate Captain Longhair takes away the Prince&#8217;s dagger, locks him in a cabin, and sails away. Desperate, the Prince climbs into the sleeping captain&#8217;s cabin, snatches up a package he thinks is his dagger, and lowers himself over the side of of the ship.</p>
<p>CHAPTER V<br />
The Invention Dwarfs</p>
<p>The Prince landed with a loud splash in the water below the moving pirate ship. The man on watch rushed to the side and peered over.</p>
<p>&#8220;What&#8217;s doing there?&#8221; he called out.</p>
<p>Prince Johnathon slipped quietly below the surface of the water. When he raised his head for air the pirate ship had vanished in the darkness. The Prince waited. When he was sure the ship was out of sound&#8217;s reach he swam towards land.</p>
<p>There was a wharf along the shore. The Prince climbed on it. He found himself in a strange village with amazing lamps. The lamps were lighted by thousands of fireflys.</p>
<p>There was only one street and it was in a perfect circle. Along the circle were dozens of little houses. The Prince ran from door to door. But no where could he get an answer to his knocks.</p>
<p>Finally he lay down in the street and went to sleep.</p>
<p>He awoke to find it was day and he was surrounded by dwarfs whose clothes were made entirely of flower petals.</p>
<p>The Prince sat up and rubbed his eyes. &#8220;I cannot believe what I am seeing!&#8221; he exclaimed. &#8220;Who are you?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;We are the Invention Dwarfs,&#8221; said a dwarf clothed in daffodil petals. &#8220;We invent things.&#8221;</p>
<div><!--adsense--></div>
<p>&#8220;What kind of things?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Why, anything. Our clothes, for instance. We invented a way to keep flowers fresh forever. Then we wear them instead of clothes like yours which scratch and shrink and aren&#8217;t very pretty to begin with.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;We also invent things for people,&#8221; put in an eager little daisy robed dwarf. &#8220;We invent excuses for children to use when they haven&#8217;t done something they ought to have done. Or have done something they ought not to have done.&#8221;</p>
<p>Prince Jonathan was growing more and more excited. He said,<br />
&#8220;Do you invent things &#8211; I mean things that will do something.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Sure,&#8221; cried a dwarf. &#8220;We invent moving sidewalks and crayons that won&#8217;t break and alarm clocks that won&#8217;t wake anybody up.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Could you invent me something?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Most certainly. We can invent anything.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Then,&#8221; said the Prince, &#8220;invent me a way to get to Santa Land just as quickly as I can!&#8221;</p>
<p>The dwarfs were delighted to have something to invent. They drew plans, consulted books, hammered and sawed, whispered endlessly. At last it appeared that they had made a rocking chair.</p>
<p>&#8220;Sit in it,&#8221; the dwarfs ordered Johnathon, &#8220;It will rock you to Santa Land.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Prince was amazed and delighted. He sat in the chair and rocked gently. Nothing happened.</p>
<p>&#8220;Rock harder!&#8221; ordered the dwarfs.</p>
<p>The Prince rocked harder and harder until he felt his head would rock off. But he never got one inch closer to Santa Land.</p>
<p>&#8220;Guess it&#8217;s a failure,&#8221; said the dwarfs cheerfully. &#8220;Lots of our inventions are failures. We&#8217;ll try again.&#8221;</p>
<p>So again they set to work drawin , and consulting and whispering and hammering. By and by they presented the Prince with a pogo stick which is a stick with a spring in it that will jump you up and down.</p>
<p>&#8220;Jump with it,&#8221; said the dwarfs. &#8220;It will jump you to Santa Land.&#8221;</p>
<p>Jonathan was a little discouraged but he did as he was told. He climbed on the stick and jumped and jumped. But he never jumped higher than a few inches and never got closer to Santa Land.</p>
<p>&#8220;Never mind. We will try again,&#8221; said the dwarfs. &#8220;You mustn&#8217;t get discouraged if you are an inventor.&#8221;</p>
<p>But the Prince was very discouraged.</p>
<p>&#8220;I must get to Santa Land now &#8211; at once!&#8221; he cried. &#8220;Or it isn&#8217;t any use in going at all.&#8221;</p>
