Does Baby
] hrive?

If your baby is delicate
and sickly and its food does
not nourish it, put fifteen
or twenty drops of SCOTS
Emulsion in its bottle three
or four times a day and you
will see a marked change.
We have had abundant
proof that they will thrive
on this emulsion when other
food fails to nourish them.
1t is the same with larger
children that are delicate.
SCOTS Emulsion seems to be
the element lacking in their
food. Do not fail to try it if
your children do not thrive.
1t is as useful for them in
summer as in winter.
Ask y0u, dcct0r II tbs IS net true.

It's the best thing for the
hair under all circumstances.
Just as no man by taking
thought can add an inch to
his stature, 30 no preparation
can make hair. The utmost
that can be done is to pro-
mote conditions favorable to
growth. This is done by
Ayers Hair Vigor. 1t re-
moves dandruf, cleanses the
scalp, nourishes the soil In
which the hair grows, and,
lust as g desert will blossom
under rain, so bald heads grow
hair, when the roots are nour-
ished. But the roots must oa
there. If you wish your hair
to retain Its normal color, or
If you wish to restore the lost
tnt of gray or faded hair use

If it he true that there exist any
serious disagreement in the cabi-
net over the policy Of taking TO
ourselves definitely the PAilip
pines, Abraham Llncoln's manner
of dealing with adcbated question
supplies the model for procedure
now.
According to the late Ben llOl
liday, he, Holiday, was invited
by the President to be presen t
while tn cabinet considered GER
tain important measure. The dis
cussion was long, thorough, and
very earnest, and at its CONCLUSION
it was plain that the Cabinet was
a unit. At the proper time the
President said: "Gentlemen, we
will vote. Those in favor say Aye
"Ave!" said the President.
"Those opposed say No." con-
tinued Lincoln, and every mem
Der of the Cabinet voted No.
1.-THE Ayes have it," said Lin
coin; and he lived to felicitate
himself upon the frmness of his
judgement.
Ifupon the question of keepin g
of the Philippines the entire Ca5i-
net Of the present day should vote
No, it would be the duty of Presi-
dent Mckinley to have his "Aye''
prevail.-N Y Sun.

The pay Of the American pri-
vate soldier is not enough to luake
him look down with disdain on his
poor relations, but it is bonanza
compared with the pay OF the
private in the Russian army, who
gets 1925 year. But in addition
to this he has the privilege of get
ting shot when the emergencies
present themselVes-a privilege
that a fellow who dosen't handle
more than 1925 a year ought to
use.-Columbia Register.

A man who Is in position to
know the political sentiment
among the soldiers at Chickamau-
ga tells some facts which will be
ofinterest to the politicians. He
says the bulk of the men were
"antis," but that Senator Tillm am s
active and efficient work for the
regiment has changed the feeling
and that some Of his strongest OPP
ponents have become his friends.
On the other hand, the men are
practically unanimous in dislike
for Governor Ellerbe whom they
blame for the discomtorts, hard
ships and humiliation they under
went before they cot into decent
shape. There are about 600 votes
in the regiment and from the pres
ent outlook Uncle George Tillman
will get eight-lenths and Elerbe
none OF fthem.-Greenville News:

sabbath worship is usually conduct
ed at the public church, where visitors
from the world are free to attend, y
writes Madeline S. Bridges of the
Shakers of Mount Lebanon, N. Y, in
The Ladies' Home Journal. -Four sis
ters and four brethren stand in the cen
ter of the room aud form double quar-
tet. The Shaker dance, SO miscalled,
is i'll reality more or less stately march,
in which all the members join-thc
brethren i'll u procession, two by two,
followed by the sisterhood in like order.
They move i'll step to the hymns they
are singing, either slowly or quickly as
the measure of the time demands. The
ritual is of the mplest-testimony OF
faith fervently uttered by those who
feel impelled to speak, few earnest
words of exhortation from the elders,
the march and the singing of hymns.
Something curious i'll regard to these
Shaker hymns is the fact that they are
claimed to be largely inspirational-tne
music and words come together as
gifts, and frequently to those who are
not musical. For instance, very often a
tap will sound on the door of musical
sister and an unnlusical sister will en-
ter with the announcement, Sister, a
song has jest come to me. Can you take
the words and note it for me?' ="
