Doctors now agree that
consumption is curable.
Three things, if taken to-
gcther, will cure nearly every
case in the first stages; the
majority of cases more ad-
vanced; and a few of those
far advanced.
The first is, fresh air; the Sc
cond, proper food; the third,
Scott'S Emulsion of cod-liver
oil with hyPophosphites.
To be cured, you must not
lose in weight, and, if thin,
you must gain. Nothing
equals SCOTS Emulsion to
keep you in good flesh.

ST. PAUL, Feb. 1.-THE commission
appointed some months ago to investi-
gate the charges that some of the con.
victs Of the state prison ut Saltwater
had been subjected to cruelty by Dep.
uty Warden Lemon has fled it's report
with Governor Clough. The substance
Of the report is as follows:
"We find that none of the charges
against any of the officers of the prison
of cruelty to convicts, or of any other
character, have been sustained, and we
exonerate them all from any suspicion
Of improper treatment of the convicts
under their charge; and we find that
the prison is in excellent condition,
both as place for the confinement Of
criminals and as to its general conduct
and management, and so thoroughly
were we convinced on all these points
that we congratulate the state upon its
possessing such an unexceptional penal
institution as the state prison at Still
Water.'

reasons put forward for this:
First, that the operatives do not see
