SCOTS EMULSION

SCOTT'S EMULSION
of cod-liver oil is the means of
life, and enjoyment of life to
thousands: men women and
children.
When appetite fails, it re-
stores it. When food is a
burden, it lifts the burden.
When you lose flesh, it brings
the plumpness of health.
When work is hard and
duty is heavy, it makes life
bright.
1t is the thin edge of the
wedge; the thick end is food.
But what is the use of food,
when you hate it, and can't di-
gest it?
SCOTS Emulsion of cod
liver oil is thefood that makes
you forget your stomach.
If you have not tried it, send for free sample,
Is agreeable taste will surprise you.

STEALING A GREAT PICTURE.
From The London Morning Post

A ROMANTIC FANCY CONCERNING A COLLECTOR.
From The London Morning Post
The announcement that another important
reflections If you lose by theft a gold chronom-
eter that cost hundred guineaS you may
least console yourself with the reflection that
the actual thief gets very few pounds for his
booty. Yet a watch quickly be turned into
a lump OF salabe bullion. The man who steals
a great picture has by him thing that cannot
be reduced to it's elements in this way and that
is known to everybody who is likely to regard it
as possessing any value at all 1t cannot be
denied that the mere lust of possession is one
OF the motives that most strongly actuate the
ardent collector. He may be thoroughly alive
to the artistic merit, and may-though this is
unusual-poSSeSS nothing that is merely rare.
Yet he gets pleasure from the knowledge that
he is owner, until the time of his DEATH of
say that the European who collected and was
content never to show his treasures, or to let
it be known that he had them would be a very
rare bird indeed. Yet expert thieves with banks
and jewellers shops on every hand, do and
again steal pictures. valuable in the open
to the biggest OF fences" For, be it noted the
stolen pictures rarely come back as the result
OF the owners paying blacimail.
1t is a romantic thought that there NAV exist

other collectors that perhaps he is even the
rel reSentative of generations who have held
similar views, Suppose, in short, there should
suddenly be discovered in some quite ordinary
mansion or castle a collection of the worlds
unaccountably lost masterpieces For surely it
is moderately certain that expert thieves only
covet what is not theirs when they know some
one who desires to make il his, and is willing
to pay those who will enable him to do so,

In vain they appealed to him for Song or
sentiment" The great Bismarck said he gave
the same advice under conditions all similar
and what was good enough for Berlin must
suffice for Bergen
Three years later. on visiting the town for the
second tima. the master novelist found II desert

way station, banners waved. addresses
were read by porty burgomasters. In vain

And Bergen remembered
