A New Years Cyclone.

Is that a cyclone ragin'?
Is the roof a-tumbiin' down?
Is that earthquake shakin'
All the winders in town?
Is that the river roarin'
Above it's banks of green?
Has Gabriel blowed his trumpet
To make the dead serene?
They stood and heard in terror
While loud the noise arose,
Like the warwhOops of the Indians,
The shouts of foreign foes,
But voice brought better comfort
Net not the sainted scoff):
''Thar amt a bit of trouble;
That's daddy swearin' off,

Feed pale girls on SCOTS
Emulsion.
We do not need to give all
the reasons why SCOTS
Emulsion restores the strength
and flesh and color of good
health to those who suffer
from sick blood.
The fact that it is the best
preparation Of Cod Liver Oil,
rich in nutrition, full of healthy
stimulation is a suggestion as
to why it does what it does.
SCOTS Emulsion presents
Cod Liver Oil at it's best,
fullest in strength, least in
taste.
Young women in their

Of the peculiar disease of the

Curve Strengthened

curve SIra1gnJe0eu.
The engineering department of the
Fair Haven and Westville road has
just completed plans for important inn
provements on the West Shore road,
between Cox's surf house and Wood
mont
The officials of the Fair Haven road
recognizing the impossibility of giving
the public first class service between
those points owing to to the single
track and numerous curves, have de-
cided to double track that stretch of
the road and straighten the line.
The work will not be taken up until
next spring, but representatives of the
road are now buying the property in
Orange and Milford that will be need
ed in order to make the Improvements
possible. The company will have to
purchase a good deal of land They
have already secured options on most
of the property that is needed.
The double tracking will cover dis
lance Of about four miles, and when
completed will prove great conven-
fence to the public. The running time
between New Haven and WoSdmont
will be considerably shortened and the
road will necessarily be made safer.
The present sharp curves will be elimi-
mated and there will be no danger of
accidents.
