Children.

Give them oil-cod-liver oil.
It's curious to see the result.
Give it to the peevish, fret
full child, and he laughs. Give
it to the pale, anamic child,
and his face becomes rosy and
full of health. Take a flat
chested child, or a child that
has stopped growing, give him
the oil, and he will grow big
and strong like the rest.
This is not a new scheme.
1t has been done for years.
OF course you must use the
right oil. SCOTS Emulsion

THE recent meeting of the reform
ers in Louisville, KY. attracted con-
siderable attention, but the comments
have been largely sarcssticsl. The
old political parties are too firmly
fixed in the history and the affections
Of the people to be easily alarmed at
the suggestion of supplanting them by
something new under the banner of
reform. Nevertheless reform is COM
ing and it is coming with much
strength. 1t will doubtless be effect
ed through the medium of the parties
We have, but the press is the great re-
form center and its influence is being
felt in marked way. There is de-
mand for honest and efficient man
agement of public affairs and for such
legislation as will give the public at
large the best service. Glass legisla-
ton and all unjust discrimination in
methods of taxation and expenditures
will have to stop as soon as the people
are fully aroused and we have by no
means lost faith in the American peo-
pie. There may be backward steps at
times but the speeding years will
doubtless see many important reforms
and they are coming now. Organiza-
tons Of neither of men mol capital can
prevent wholesome legislation in the
end. though they may delay it for a
time and foist upon us many delusive
expedients designed to make their grip
stronger. Let the people read and
think for themselves and then let ev-
cry man be his own reform party,
standing resolutely for what is right
and favoring just and wholesome laws
which will help to make all the peo-
pie happy.

A Washington girl who "goes OUT a
great deal and who cannot afford many
handsome gowns happened last sum-
mer on a trunkful of dresses her moth
er wore twenty years ago. Among them
was "darned net" net worked with
a pattern in white thread. The girl i'm
mediately found her idea. She darn
ed her black net gown in stripes with
a key pattern In gold thread, and with
an outlay of almost nothing at all she
has a gown you might ransack all
Paris to surpass.
Among her last years belongings was
white silk gown which was hopeless
ly spotted. Old fashioned fancy work
gave her an idea of renovating that
She bought bottle of red paint-water
color-a fine tooth comb and nail
brush. Then she ripped up the white
gown, tackled the pieces to drawing
board, pinned pressed fern eaves to
them and went to work to sHltter the
pattern on. The skirt has border and
panel of white fern leaves on back
ground of spattered red, and the bodice
is decorated in similar fashion. The
gown is really an inspiration, and the
girl is so proud of it she can't help tell
ing how she did it.-Washington Star.

Odd Legislation.

Every one knows that the Arkansas
legislature enacted some years ago
that the proper pronunciation of the
name of the state was "Arkansaw.'
1t is not so well known that there is n
unique law on the statute book of Ne
vada the object of which was to clear
from the stain the name of an Indian
chief who, although q strong temper
ance advocate and an abstainer took
"pick me up" one day in a local sa-
loon. In his extremity he appealed to
his white friends, with the result that
the state legislature was persuaded to
declare itself thus: Resolved, by the
legislature Of the state of Nevada, the
governor concurring, that the drink OF
whisky taken by Johnson Sides in the
Magnolia saloon July II, 1887, be and
Is hereby annulled."

DIR. Van Watts is now permanently
located in his old office, which has
just been remodeled and refitted in
neat and elegant style. He is here to
stay, and to practice dentistry aud
nothing else. He don't talk politics
or religion; he don't care anything
about the war in the Philippine Is
lands; he don't know whether it was
Turks or Bulgarians that kidnapped
Miss Stone, and he don't care if Teddy
Roosevelt dined with Booker Wash
ington, he can be found in his office at
all times prepared to do any style of
work known to the dental profession.
He guarantees, by new method, to ex-
tract or fill the most sensitive teeth
without pain, harm or danger to the
patient. He uses nothing but best
material and guarantees the work for
life. Nothing cheap about his work
except his charges. 1t will cost moth
ing to have him examine 1our teeth
and tell you what it will cost.

An EIectiOneerin Trick.

During the recent Hungarian cleo
lions Legrady, chief editor of well
known paper, was defeated by peas
ant named Natal, who appeared upon
the hustings in leather breeches and
thick worsted stockings. Legrady is
intrusted by the government with the
printing of the tax notice books, and
his name consequently appears in small
letters upon the cover. Natal was put
forward by Hungarian count who
had lost the previous election through
Legrady. Mattai's electioneering agents
said to the peasants: You will never be
so foolish as to elect a man who i'm
poses fresh taxes upon you. Here is
his name upon the cover" By this trick
Legrady lost his seat.
