Wrong Icon for Applications Folder in Dock

The applications folder on my dock is gone. When I go to Finder and drag the Application folder to the dock, it displays the Address Book icon. It's the application folder but wrong icon. Anyone know how to correct this? Thanks.

Right-click it in the Dock, change it to display as a Folder rather than a Stack. Stacks show the icons of what they contain, Address Book is usually the first application in the folder.
