Remember a fifty cent bottle
of SCOTS Emulsion given in
proper quantities will last a
baby fifty days; child six or
thirty days; and a child
of ten or twelve, twenty days.
It's a very economical medi-
cine.
If the child is sickly, without
appetite, it will nourish and
bridge it over until it can take
its usual food.
For delicate children without
any real disease, it can be used
with splendid results.
Wen send you little to try, Il you ike.

THROWING THE BOONE FRANC.
Flight OF the Australian Weapon Ana
lyLed by a.Scienti-t.

The wonderful flights OF the boom
erang, described by travellers, are sell
dom seen today, and, though there are
many natives OF Australia who can
make boomerang go TO a distance Of
2i0 feet before it returns TO them
there seems to be only one trustworthy
account Of n much more sensational
throw. According TO this account a
boomerang described five circles in
the air. travelled to distance Of about
go feet from the thrower and rose to
height Of l35 feet.
There are two principal types Of
this weapon, as described by n recent
eXperimenter. The first, shown in
figure No. /. is bent almost to a right
angle, and has the cross section shown
In No. =. The cross section diminishes
slightly toward the ends, and the
weight is abo. go grams. The arms
are twisted from the plane, like the
sails of windr- II, being rotated in
the direction Of n righthanded screw.
\ boomerang Of the second type Is
shown III figure No. 3. 1t has cross
section similar to that of n boomerang
Of the first type. Its arms, however.
are twisted in the opposite direction,
aad thus involve lcfthanded rotation.
Cn both types one side is more round
ell than the other.
4 boomerang of the frst type is held
with the moro rounded side TO the
left and the concaye edge forward,
and Is thrown in horizontal direc-
ton. AS much rotation as possible
is given TO IL. but instead OF remaining
parallel To it's original direction, the
plane of rotation has an angular veloc-
ity, first about the direction of trans
lation, and second about line i'm its
plane perpendicular to this. The eff
rrct of the latter is that the path
curls to the left, while owing TO the
former the plane of rotation inclines
over to the right, /. g.. rotatcs In the
direction OF the hands of n clock fac
ing the thrower."
After ID has described nearly n com
pletc circle the boomerang goes more
slowly, and finally falls near the feet
of the throwcr. In figures Nos. and
3 its flight is illustrated 10y means Of
projections on horizontal and on n
vertical plane. Until the velocity he

A Seal. Intelligence.

A few years ago some fishermen
were following their vocation off a
harbor on the Maine coast, when they
observed a cOmmotion on the surface
and soon made out a seal leaping
from the water as If followed by some
enemy.
1t came near the boat, swimming
round ii several times, and then
making a leap, the men saw that II
was being chased by a large fish.
One Of the fishermen droped his line,
and, stepping into the bow, leaned
over and held out his hands To his
amaZement the seal Immediately
dashed toward him, and. with his
help, scrambled out OF the water into
the boat, just in time TO escape the
sharp weapon OF a swordfish that
darted by, its big eyes staring prob.
ably in wonder at the method of es-
cape to its fshy intelligence being
evidently a case Of out of the frying
pan into the fire.
But the little seal apparently knew
better, and It need not be said that
its confidence was not misplaced, as
the men were so pleased with its ac-
ton in coming 10 them they kept il
as a pet, and the seal became n
familiar object about the shore 49, Our

The contrariness of Woman.

II Is rather odd that women In the far
East should wish to copy our modes,
just as the Western women are com
ing 10 the conclusion that the Japan
ese have solved the problem Of truly
artistic and comfortable female habili-
ments. II Is a pity for the almond
eyed beauties of the Flowery King
com to vulgarize themselves by wear
ing Partisan clothes. Can no one stop
the sacrilege, for sacrilege II really
seems TO be, by convincing the court
women Of Japan that they would make
the mistake of their lives If they
should allow their beautiful and pic
turesque national costume TO go out
OF exlstince? Perhaps II we had con
tinued to insist that our mode of dress
was the best one the ladies of the
chrysanthcmum country would never
have wished to change it.
