HENRICO NEWS.
Squire Thomas Experience at the Academy.
Board of Supervisors.


Squire George w Thomas, of HenrIco
county, who is much interested IN as
tronomy. went to the Academy of Music
Monday night to hear the lecture by Gar
rett P. Serviss, on How Worlds are
Made" But at the door he was told
that every seat had been taken, and that
no more tickets were for sale.
Pleading was vain, also the offer OF
twice or three times-th regular adnis-
sion. Finally the Squire started out.
when Just as he was going into the
street, a much-disappointed man. he ran
up against a gentleman coming in. AS a
last hope he grabbed at him and asked
if he could not, by hook or crook get
him into the house. The gentleman said
he would do what he could. and the re-
suit was that the Squire gotEin and sot
a good seat.
To make a long story short, the man
through whose influence Squire Thomas
got; into the Academy was Garrett. 2.
Serviss himself, though the Squire dldni t
know it until the curtain rose.

BLOOD HISTORY

Born in bone marrow-dies
in the liver. This is the be
ginning and the end Of the rich,
red blood that keeps US all
alive. Blood history makes a
fascinating story.
SCOTS Emulsion often plays
a most important part in blood
history. At the very beginning
that is where its influence
is greatest.
SCOTS Emulsion is a blood
food-a rich material for max
