FATHER OF FORTY CHILDREN
All Arc Alive, Being the Offspring Of Four
different Mothers


At the Union depot in Cincinnati the
other day could be seen ten or twelve
little children, seemingly about the
same size, playing around the waiting
room. The boys all wore tweed suits,
while the girls had on checked ging-
ham dresses. Supposng that they be-
longed to an orphan asylum or some
public institution, an Enquirer re-
porter asked where they were from
and IL they were having a holiday. To
his establishment he learned that they
belonged to the same family and were
moving from Weston, w. Va, to Kan
sas, where they have colony Of rela
tives in Clark county. The reporter
hunted up the parents Of this remark
able brood OF children and found the
father a hale and hearty man about
70 years Of age, while the mother was
perhaps thirty years younger
The old mans life has been a wonder
full one. His name Is James Watkins,
and he was raised in Clark county,
Virginia, near Berryville. the county
| seat. He married at the age Of 20 years,
his first wife living ten years and bear

| widowerhood he again married, and re-
moved with his family to Wise county
There he lived for fifteen years and

IS IT THE END ?
A Time of Great Mortality.

Especially Noticeable in Children. - win
Man Cease to Exist - Can the
"Omega" be Averted?
Why is 1t, with our improved sanitary
appliances, our care to obtain fresh air,
pure food, and plenty of exercise, the OBJ
servance, in fact, of every hygienic law,
that In spite of every care each succeed
ing generation seems to become weaker
and shorter lived? Is it that we are now
suffering for indiscretions of our ances-
tors, or Is that terrible, unknown end of
man at hand?
Whatever the cause, the existing con-
ditiOn of things is too apparent. Especi-
ally Is this noticeable with the babies.
Instead of the mothers life-glving milk,
they are compelled to begin a struggle for
existence with the bottle. The result In
many cases is disastrous. The little one,
falling to obtain necessary nourlshment,
grows weaker daily, until death ends the
struggle. The end in these cases is
Simply Starvation.
With this termination SO often the case,
the best physicians of the day have re-
sorted to the use of Bovinine, that great
ana original raw Iood product, as means
TO save the babies.
In this connection DR.. A. B. Robinson,
Oh Dudley St., Boston, after commencing
Bovinine most highly for various compli-
cations where the waste of disease must
be checked, and new blood, flesh, and
strength created to effect cure, saws
concerning this life-creating preparation,
"With feeble, bottle-fed babies. q small
amount added to the milk has in my
practice saved many children"
Bovinine is not a medicine, but a
DEMONSTRATING, flesh, bone, and blood
making preparation that contains the
greatest amount of nourishment in the
least possible bulk.
Give 1t to the little ones while there is
still hope. Your physician, If you ask
him, will recommend 1t, and you will
bless the results obtained forever.
