Robbery of Life as Well as Money
One OF the Worst Of Modern Swindles-
Stones for Sufferers Who
Want Bread.

Want Bread
If a doctor should prescribe candy
and other sweets for each young girl
who came under his professional care,
he would probably be called, by these
patients at least, AN elegant doctor.
| If your child was desperately ill, and
you knew that only some nauseous
mixture would effect a cure, you GER
tainly would not hesitate to give it,
simply because Of it's taste. Suppose
the druggist would think only of pleas
ing your child and should give you
some mixture of honey, only labelling
it with the name of the disagreeable
remedy! What would you think OF
such a man? You would say he was
willing to risk the life of the child
simply for the sake of pleasing.
We all know what wonderful power
:od-liver oil has over a number of dis
eases. 1t is also well known that no
human skill can completely remove all
It's peculiar taste. Yet there are
few INSCRIPTIONS manufacturers who
are so anxious to have a perfectly
"tasteless mixture, that they will
leave out the cod-liver oil. They label
their bottles as some "tasteless cod
liver OIL" and yet there is not
particle of oil present. That is why it
is tasteless. They believe you have
confidence in their statements, and so
are perfectly willing to deceive you if
only they can sell their goods. Is such
a course anything but a criminal one?
A perfectly tasteless preparation of
cod-liver oil cannot be made. We have
been making emulsions for twenty
years, and we can speak with author
ity. The nearest approach to it is
found in SCOTS Emulsion of Cod-liver
Oil with Hypophosphites. This prepa-
ration contains the very best cod-liver
oil with nearly all the fishy taste re.
moved. Only trace of it remains:
enough to be detected, but not enough
to make the mixture disagreeable even
to the most sensitive stomach. This is
why sick people Ind no trouble in
taking SCOTS Emulsion, and it also
explains why so many persons recover
their health under it's use.
Nearly twenty-five years ago the
proprietors of SCOTS Emulsion discov.

to remove from it almost entirely its
obnoxious fshy taste and smell, and at
the same time increasing its food and
remedial properties. They found also
that by combining the Hypophosphites
with It that they added still further to

TERRIBLE JUDICIAL ERROR.
How Lying Servants Caused the Exc
ecution of I'm Innocent Man
In Russia.

A terrible judicial error is reported
from Bychawa, in Russian Poland. In
February, 1892. a merchant arrived at
an inn there and took room for the
night. In the morning he was found
dead in bed and had every appearance
of having died a natural death. The
'boots," Ivan Pschatka. and a servant
however. both swore that they had
seen the innkeeper Cazek, strange
the merchant, take money from his
pockets and bury it near a certain tree
in the garden. Their evidence was con-
frmed by the discovery of 80 rubles
buried at the spot mentioned by them.
The judge held that Cazek's guilt was
now conclusively proved and sentenced
him to death Cazek was shortly after
ward hanged in spite of his protesta-
tions of innocence.
Ivan Pschatka married the servant
and Cazek was almost forgotten. when
Pschatlla and his wife recently quar-
relied and made accusations against
each other. which led to Investigations
being made. 1t hasno w transpred that
Cazek was in the habit of hiding his
own savings near the tree in the gar
den. Pschatka and the servant dis
covered the hiding place and stole all
the money except so rubles.
They were, however, terribly afraid
of being detected, and when the mer-
chant happened to die in the inn Just
at the opportune moment for them
they concocted the story of murder and
caused the innocent Cazek to be found
guilty of murder and hanged The two
inscriptions periurers are now await
ing trial for their awful crime.

Rosa Bonheur earned her first money
in copying the paintings of old mas
tiers, working early and late. helping to
support her family. Her first animal
picture was goat. which pleased her
so much that she gave up copying and
took up animal painting. Models being
too expensive for the slender purse OF
the young artist she would tramp miles

her pocket, to sketch an animal. When
only 10 years old she sent her first pic

AMERICAN GENERALS.
Two Vh0 Arc Splendid Types of the
Courageous American
Soldier.

We had not seen the fight of the cav
airy brigade. says Frederic Remington
in Harper's Monthly, because we were
not at the front. We would not let it
happen again. We slung our packs and
most industriousiy plodded up the Via
del Rey until we got to within hailir9
distance of the picket posts. and he
said: Now, Frederic. we will stay
here They will pull off no more fights
of which we are not party of the first
part" And stay we did. If Gen. Law
ron moved ahead. we went up ard Guilt
waited Lawton; but if Gen. ChaiIee got
ahead. we were his friends. and gath
cred at his mess fire. To be popular
with us it was necessary to have com
mand of the advance.
But what satisfying soldiers Lawton
and Claifse are! Both seasoned, pro-
fessional military types. Lawton. big
and long, forceful ard with iron deter
minatioL. Chatfee. who never dis
mounts but for little sleep during the
darkest hours of the night and whose
head might have been presented to him
by one of Williams Norman barons.
Such head! We used to sit around and
studya hat head. 1t does not belong to
the period; il is remote. when the race
was young and strong; and it has war

seem trivial tc you, but | must have
people look their part" That so many
do not in this age is probably because
men are so complicated; but war is a
primitive art" and that is the one objec-
ton had to Won Moltke, with his sim
pf; student face. He might have been
any thing. Chaifee is a soldier.

SOME GREAT LOVERS.

Thomas Moore was always in love.
L one looks through his poems one may
find the names Of some IS different
ladies to whom he swore eternal fidel-
ity
Byron was foolishly jealous of every
woman he ever loved. His loves ran
well into two figures. and he managed
sooner or later TO make every one mis-
cradle.
Heinrich Heine, the poet, was ter
ribly jealous. One day he poisoned n
parrot belonging 10 his lady love for
fear it should claim too much of her
attention.
THE Rivals" is true story Of Sher-
idan's courtship. the character Of Ly-
dia Languish in the life play being
taken by Miss Lindley, who afterwards
became the authors wife.
1t is said that when Goethe was first
in love he carved upon a tree in the
eigbboring forest a couple OF hearts
united by a scroll and a little later re-
ceived a sound thrashing from the for
ester for thus damaging the bark.

The naturalist's wife had gone out
for few minutes and left the baby in
charge of her absent minded husband
When she returned she was not a little
disturbed to discover the baby crying
dismally, and its father, with collec-
ton OF his largest bottles of alcohol be-
fore him, evidently at his wits end.
why, David, David" cried the good
woman, snatching up the child, what
is the matter?" well, my dear" re-
sponded the great naturalist, simply,
gazing at the baby, "it's very strange,
but can't find bottle large enough to
hold him anywhere"

A MISF!T ASSIGNMENT.
An Ensitree whose EnGinc-Room
Doors We're of Much Too
Limited Capacity.

A well-knoWn chief engineer of the
navy who doesn't have to take any dust
from Gen. Shaftcr in the matter OF av-
cirdupois-tippiHg the scales, as he
does, at triile more than 300 pounds
was recently ordered to take charge of
the mechanical department of one of
the smaller gunboats on the Pacific sta
ton. The engineer. says the Washing
ton Post, didn't particularly like the
assignment but it didn't worry him to
the point of suicide. He simply sat
down and made sketch of the exceed
ing,y narrow doors that lead into the
engine rooms Of The gunboat to which
he was ordered marking the dimen-
sions of the DOORS in figures on the
sketch. Below mis- drawing of one of
the engine-room doors this Jolly chief
engineer made a neat sketch of him
self, full figure, not eXa2gerating his
Falstatlian paunch a tritle. He at
tached his own dimensions to feet and
inches, circumferentially, to this sketch
Of himself Then he put the sketches
in an envelope and respectfully sub
mtted" them to the bureau of naviga-
ticn. II was a sort of document that
occasionally makes hit, The infer
ence to be drawn from the sketches
was so ohvious-the imposibility of the
chief engineers passage through the
engine-room doors of the ship to which
he was ordered was so apparent-that
the assignment was recalled, and the
lacouic chief engineer is liable to get a
flagship when the next batch of steam
/ engineering assignments is made.
