BABY'S BUSINESS

A healthy baby is comfort able; and that is enough for a baby. His business in life is to grow.
 Aside from acute diseases, his food is the cause of most of his troubles. But Scott's emulsion of cod-liver oil deliv- CTS him from it.
 He isn't sick; only a little hitch, somewhere, in his ma chine for turning food into growth.
 It is a great thing to do, for a baby, to help him over a hitch with mere food-the emulsion is food that has the tact to get there.
 The tact to get there is med. icine.

RumOrs About w. M,

There was an unlimited amount OF specu.
lation In municipal and financial circles to-
day as to what was the object of the secret
meeting of the city directors ofthe Western
Maryland Railroad 10 the Mayors Office
yesterday afternoon, but nobody seemed to
have any accurate idea rs to what had been
under discussion. There were plenty of ru-
mors, but those who talked were not positive
that they had gotten the news straight and
those who knew refused to talk.
In one usually well,informed quarter 1t
was said that the object of the meeting was
to prepare for reorganization of the road,
including the absorption by The parent line
of the numerous branches no W operated I'M
der leases. Such change, it was said, would
save considerable amount in operating
expenses aud would In general prove bene-
fetal to the system.
Another reason advanced for the meeting
of the directors is that the Reading Railroad
has made an offer for the Western Maryland.
The Reading road is now said to be anxious
to secure a terminal at Baltimore in view Of
the control of the Baltimore and Ohio pass
ing into the hands Of the Pennsylvania,
which will cut off the Reading from the use
of the B. & o. tracks.
The Reading now has connection with
the Western Marylan at Bowmansdale, Pa.
and all that would be necessary should the
Reading acquire W. M. would be to build Il
braach from that point to Thomasyillc, Pa,
to meet the main line to Baltimore of the
Western Maryland.
1t is also rumoaed that Mr.. J. Pierpont
Morgan is engineering the deal, which, If,
carried through, will also give the Jersey
Central an entrance into Baltimore. 1t is
also said that the deal contemplates the
building of road from Gettysburg to Wash
ington, which will furnish the Reading and
Jersey Central a terminal by way of Carlisle

Gold Dollars Disappearing.

"You may not know it," said visiting
New York broker, "but gold dollars are so
scarce in my town that they are worth
dollar and half apiece, and hard to get at
that. Well, being right sprightly myself for
an elderly man, l thought the other day that
would gather IN few at par and dispose
of them as souvenirs at market prices just
to show the boys what could do when i
tried something that was really difficult.

for So in gold, calmly proceeded to the

thing, I thought, and one entirely originsl
with myself, and l didn'. see any way to
meet my demand except with three gold
dollars. But, 10 and behold failed to con.
meet. The paying teller was willing enough
to give me what I asked for, he SAID, but
there weren't any gold dollars on tap, and
he didn't know where there were any. /
insisted that the government had promised
to pay the interest in gold and 1t couldn't 60
hack on its promise; but he insisted that he
hadn't the gold dollars, and he couldn't pay
them out If he didn't have them, and what
was l going to do about it' He offered me
a IS piece IN gold and said I could give him
two dollars in change, but had come with
out a cent just to thwart any subterfuge like
that and still demanded my pound of flesh.
OF course, might have sued somebody
and torn hole in the Constitution or ripped
the rawlings out Of the bylaws, but it
would cost more than So. so I had to take
my interest in plain paper money or silver
that was worth good deal less than dollar

From the New York Press.
A woman that talks politics is about as
attractive as man who knows the names OF
all the different crochet stitches.
A man Can always get on with the woman
If he can make Is voice tremble whenever
he wants to.
A woman who loves too much sometimes
loses, but a woman who loves too little never
gains anything worth losing.
A man judges woman's heart by her face;
a woman judges mans face by his heart.
The microbes had mothers meeting the
other day and voted that the short walking
skirt was immoral.
II a lizard were secret, by the time three
women had passed 1t along 1t would be an

A woman's idea of being nice to another
woman Is to kiss her and say "Oh how love.
" that new hat is r when she knows she has
had 1t a year.
There are only two things which make life
worth living to man or to woman. To
man, great loye or great hate; to woman
a great love or a great sorrow.
