not accurate. We shall endeavor to keep a

blame 1t upon the premium that is exchanged

the paper should become too much heated
himself, a little of Hering's Compound will

1t is announced that in France the wheat
area for 1897 will be over a million acres less
than the area for 1896, and that the crop will
show a falling off of nearly fifty millions of
bushels. If these figures prove to be correct,
France will be compelled to look TO other
lands for her grain supply, and this country
will be called upon to furnish the bulk of it.
The United States will stand ready to do this,
as from the present outlook this country is
to have wheat crop of enormous size. The
French demand, together with the other de-
mand from foreign lands, promises to help
American farmers to secure a fair price for
all the grain they can raise this year.

Do you know what an
" emulsion isi" 1t is when
each drop of the oil is broken
up into minute drops, so small
you can hardly see them with
the microscope: so minute
that they pass at once through
the tissues into the circula-
ton. Scott's Emulsion does
not disturb digestion, is not
unpleasant to take, and does
not fail to do its work be-
cause digestion can deal with
it at once. You may be able
to disguise the taste of raw
oil and get it past the palate.
