The most beautiful thing in
the world is the baby, all
dimpleS and Joy. The most
pitiful thing is that same baby
thin and in pain. And the
mother does not know that a
little fat makes all the differ,
ence.
Dimp es and JOY have gone,
and left hollows and fear the
fat, that was comfort and
color and curve-all but pity
and love--is gone.
The little one gets no fat
from her food. There is some
thing wrongitis either her food
or food-mill. She has had no
fat for weeks; is living on what
she had stored in that plump
little body Of hers; and that is
gone. She is starving for fat;
it is death, be quick
SCOTS Emulsion of Cod
Liver Oil is the fat she can
take; it will save her.

OTHER NOTES FROM ssITHLAso.

smithland, KY, Dec. 2S.-The peo-
Pile Of Livingston county are very
mach elated over the prospects OF the
early completion Of another raiiroad
within its borders. and II IL to be sin
cerely hoped that they will not be dis
appointed. Tho proposed route is
across the Ohio river at Csrrsville
via Salem and MP the north side Of the
Cumberland river, running directly
through Dyersburg, on through Lyon
county to Kuttaws
The second survey was completed
to KuttAwa Saturday. Mr. Nowcom-
er, who has charge Of the proposed
road, stated that he and his party
would at once return home TO spend
the holidays. but would return in
about two weeks and go 10 work on
the hnsl survey over the route. This
survey will be made 10 estimate the
cost Of grading and otner preliminary
WORK necessary IN tho buildins Of .
railroad.
Tho citizens Of the various towns
along the lines Of the proposed route
feel ocnfdent that the railroad will be
built
There Ia still some hope Of the road
crossing the Cumberland river at
Smithlsnd. running between the
rivers and crossing the ]. @. at Grand
Rivers and then on via Dover to
Nashville or some point in Alabama.
This route would then b. through the
richest fuor spar, hydraulic cement,
stone. Gre clay and iron regions in the
world.
There is much speculation about
what line Of railroad. n any, will con
troll the now road n II is built The

WASHINGTON AS BUSINESS MAN
Probably the Largest LAM Owner in
the Unite States.

Probably the Largest LAM Owner in
the Unite / States.
AS a man of business Washington was
extremely methodical. Everything was
figured down to the penny. and there
was no gucsswork about the returns from
any of his properties. He was emincntly
successful, and his property outside OF
Mount Vernon. and not including ms
wife's estate, amounted to S:,3O,OOO lie
was probably the largest owner OF land
in America. his holdings exceeding 10000
acrcs. The Mount Vernon estate came
into the possession of the Washington
family in 1874. 1t originally consisted
of 5000 acres hut when it was inherited
by Washington from his brother Law
renee the property was just hall mat
size Washington was in the market FOR
nll the available land adjoining. ana at
the time of his death he owned 5000
acres in the immediate vicinity OF his
residence. He made wise selections OF
lands which were rendered to officers OF
the French and Indian war, and by buy
ing out the patents of other officers II"
secured ownership of more than 10000
acres of land in the western part of the
colony. lie made large sales from this
domain. but what was left was valued at
over S:,OO,OOO in the inventory of his
property.
just after the Revolutionary War
Washington and Gov. Clinton of New
York obtained 5000 acres in the Mo-
hawk valley Two-thir,ls of it was sold
at ii biz profit and the remainder he held
at his death.
In the location of the new capital on
the Potomac Washington invested heav-
fly in the vicinity of the present city of
Washington and built many houses. He
also built houses in Alexandria.
AS a farmer Washington early drifted
from the exclusive cultivation of tobacco
to other crops. and later introduced a
system of rotation by which the soil did
not become exhausted. In time Mount
Vernon became the manufacturing cen
ter for the population of 300 people who
lived on the plantation. Everything that
could he made on the plantation was
produced, aud the necessity of buying
from the outside was reduced to the low
est limit. He had looms, blacksmith
shops, wagon shops. -four mills-in short,
every variety of industry where slave
labor could be utilized to advantage. He
became devoted to improving the breed
of sheep and of stock generally. He was
interested in a couple Of banks which
paid good dividends and put money into
several canal companies. All in all, he
was business man on large scale,
and while he suffered heavy losses from
the depreciation of currency during the
revolutionary struggle, they were more
than rccoupcd by his successful ventures
in land speculation. Had Washington
been born 100 years later he would have
been undoubtedly one of the Captains OF
industry" of the present era.

One Doubtful Point.

In France the question Of employing
swallows instead Of pigeons to carry
dispatches Is being seriously consid-
cred. The aptitude Of the swallow for
the work Is by many held to be even
greater than that of the pigeon. They
fly to greater height, and are there
fore less exposed to being shot, and
they travel faster, making good nearly
eighty miles an hour where pigeon
would only get over fifty. 1t is also
claimed for them that they are more
faithful, intelligent and have not on
long journeys to stop to feed, us the
pigeon has. 1t is also asserted that the
swallow can be more easily and quickly
trained. The only doubtful point seems
to be whether. on regalning their lib.
erty, they would not yield to their mi.
gratory instincts and their desire to
seek warmer climes.
