Every druggist sells cod liver
oil, but few sell good oil. If
you need cod liver Oil you
want the best. We buy it
in original tanks direct from
the fisheries, and it is abso-
lutely pure. We sell a bot

day; that is why it is fresh.
The average druggist buys
a gallon of uncertain quality
from the wholesale druggist
and it lasts him a month.
There's a lesson in this.
We sell all kinds of drugs,

two hundred and seventy-hve miles
south of Deming. Here they halted at
a spring. Blanchard tethered the
horses, while flanagan prepared the
meal. AS they expected to make dry
camp that night, Hanigan suggested
that the water cask be refilled. To do
so, Blanchard thought the handiest
way would be to get the burro close to
the spring and fill the cask without re-
moving it from the burro's back. The
burro demurred and threw Blanchard

root and sprouted.

Lemons in Southern Italy.

The damp, soft air of Sorrento is per-
feet for the cultivation of the orange,
but brense, which Is dry and
more sheltered, is given up to the pro-
duct of lemons, which yield an enor-
nous percentage to the fortunate pos
SCISSORS of land that can be used for
that purpose. Orange trees are here
and sthere mingled with the lemons.
just as lemon trees will be seen In the
midst of the orange-groves of Sorrento,
though in neither case they are the
chief produce Of the place. Massa-Lu-
brense is largely indebted for its salu-
brious air to its lemon planta-
tions. Three years must pass
before newly-planted lemon
tree begins to bear fruit; and
in order to bring it to perfection, 1t
must be freely watered. A hollow Is
dug around the base of the tree to re-
ceive the water as in a basin, so that it
may slowly penetrate to the roots.
Poles are planted ut intervals in the
ground, somewhat higher than the
trees. and smaller poles or canes are
placed crossways above them. which
are covered with mating when the
winter approaches. It is not removed
till the spring Is well advanced, for
lemon trees must be most carefully
sheltered from wind or frost The
fruit is gathered chiefly during the
summer months, especially in May,
july and September, though there are
lemons on the trees all the year round.

English Tramps and Their Babies.

On arriving at York. we went at
once to Warmgate, the kid-house dis
trict. and picked out the filthiest one
we could find. The inmates were
principally in pairs; each moocher had
his Judy (wife), and each little kid had
his little Moll (sister). These children
are the very offspring of the road. and
they remind me very much of monkeys.
Yet one has to feel sorry for them.

are compelled to see its meanest and

they are, their fathers have to plav

An Englishwoman has solved the

ing a genuine "stille roome," where
she leads quiet existence in distill-

and sweet perfumes from the old
fashioned garden flowers and herbs,
whose virtues were so we'll known and
appreciated by our ancestors. There
she watches the red, red rose distillins
its sweet essence like ruby wine in
the huge fantastic glass receptacle,
while she makes the elder-fower wa
ter invaluable for the complexion and
concocts countless exquisite toilet
preparations from ancient recipes. The
business has proved profitable as we'll
as pleasant Now that there is a rage
for scents the smart woman wishes a
perfume peculiarly her own, so she
takes kindly to the old world scents
beloved by our great-grandmother
