Traders Lioenses.

Delegate Brashears OF Anne Arundel
has introduced a bill in the House TO
amend the law relating to the issuing of
traders licenses by Clerks Of Circuit
Courts. The Act OF 1898, prohibited the
clerks from ahtedating any license, and
the result was that if neglected to apply
for his license during the month of May,
and applied, say in July he would get a
license for only ten months and the State
would lose the revenue for two months
and the trader would be liable to be pre-
sented by he grand jury tor selling with
out license during the months of May
and June. and since the enactment of the
law several Of our best citiz.ns, without
any intent to defraud the State OF its re-
venue, have been indicted. Mr.. Bra
shears law will obviate this difficulty.

The Spirit OfWinter.

The Spirit OF Winter IS with us. maxi
ing its presence known in many different
ways-sometimes by CHEEKY sunshine
and glistening SHOWS, and sometimes by
driving winds aud binding storms To
many people it seems TO take delight
in making bad things worse. for rheuma-
tism twists harder, twinges sharper, ca
tarrah becomes more annoying, and the
many SYMPTOMS OF scroiula are developed
and aggravated. There is not much poe
try in this. but there is truth. and it is a
wonder that more people don't get rid of
these ailments. The medicine that cures
them Hoods Sarsaparila-is easily OBJ
tanned and there is abundan; proof that
its cures are radical and permanent.

CHILD'S MEDICINE
WHY?

Because SCOTS Emulsion re-
hevcs such an extraordinary
variety of children's diseases
all the way from slight colds to
the serious hip disease.
Because SCOTS Emulsion is
as harmless as milk. Well borne
even by the delicate stomachs
of babies.
Because children respond SO
quickly to its action. A medi-
cine peculiarly suited to their
sensitive nature. 1t is wonder
ful how rapidly delicate chill
dren improve in every way
while taking SCOTS Emulsion.
Because children like the
taste. Most of them like SCOTS
Emulsion at once. The rest
soon learn to like it. Little
daily doses bring the results.

Mr. Wilkins dreamed that his cash book
was million dollars short by his own fig
ures. The first Of the month had come and
gone and he couldn't find the mistake. His
boss was getting impatient. Strange, fur
tive-looking men were lowering about the
office. Finally, as his head was bent over
a particularly long column of figures, a
strong hand seized him by the shoulder and
a coarse voice roared into his ear:
Come along here, you're under arrest"
He stared blankly up into the face of a
red-headed policeman, and then it dawned
upon him that he was in bed. The room
was ablaze with light. Three female figures,
all strangers, lowered behind the portieres
glaring at him with scared curiosity. Be
hind the policeman stood Mr.. Piper.

You're in my bed, that's where you are,
growled Piper, lingering a big pistol, which
he held in a menacing position.
Come along, an be quick about il"
grinned the policeman, lifting Wilkins up by
the arm. "Pll put you to bed all right"
There was a scurrying of white-clad fig.
ures as the poor bookkeeper stood up en-
deshabille, but second later he heard the
first note of hope.

heard a voice say. Then there was litter
in the hallway. Mr.. Piper left the room,
and Wilkins, great light breaking Upon his
consciousness, began to pull on his trousers.
'I'll go this way" he explained to the
policeman. And with his shoes in one hand
and his other garments thrown across his
arm he hurried out into the hall. The door
closed after him, and he stood facing the
bluecoat.
"I'll give you a new hat if you don't men
ton this" he began. '1'm Wilkins, George
Silas Wilkins, and-I live in the fiat above. "
"We'll see," blurted the copper, leading
his victim up the final fight.
Mrs. Wilkins answered the bell.
"Open the door," commanded the police
man. When it was open and the scared wife
beheld her woebegone spouse, the officer
roughly demanded: docs he belong here?'
She glared at Wilkins for a moment in
mingled establishment and disgust as she
answered:
tits the first time ever saw him in that
condition. eyes, he belongs here, I'm sorry
to say"
The policeman went whistling merrily
down the stairs, but Wilkins is still drawing
diagrams for his wife.-Chicago Record

Dogs and cats have been employ ed
to draw baby carriages, but using a
rooster for such purpose is new
idea. Q. J. Plomesen OF LUverne, Ia,
has a flock OF cochin china fowls,
among them a rooster that is a giant
in the feathered kingdom. On ac-
count of his size and breed he is pet
in the family and has become very
tame.
Mr. Plomesen conceived the plan OF
training him to draw the baby car
rage in which his daughter takes hsr
exercise IN the air. He made light
harness. fastened it TO the bird. and
after a few weeks taught him to pull
the vehicle along the dooryard path
without difficulty.

drive. but her sister sometimes gets

Field of BAnno ckbarn.
Most of the historic spots in Great

1t is for its entire absence of trap
