of pure wantonness which kicks in sea-
son and out of season, at everything or
at nothing as the case may be. The
term kicker scarcely needs definition.
We know exactly what it means, as
we'll as we know the chronic fault-fnder
it designates.
THE RISE OF THE KICKER.
ANY one who cares to trace the rise of
the kicker will find that he keeps pace
with the prevalent American disease,
dyspepsia. All kickers may not be
kickers. They are everlasting fault
finders. Nothing goes right for them
in the family or in business. There is
always a dead fly in their ointment. 1t
is a miserable condition for the dyspep-
tic and his friends. He really can't help
himself. His nerves are strained to the
limit of endurance. His ears are like
megaphones magnifying every little
sound to the shock of thunder. His
eyes lose sense of perspective and he
sees mole-hills as mountains. He Is
suspicious, jealous, unreasonable and
obstinate; and all these things are only
symptoms of the disease which is starv-
ing and weakening the entire nervous
system and reaching out toward heart,
liver, lungs, kidneys and other organs.
WHAT CAN BE DONE FOR HIM?
What can be done for the victim of
dyspepsia?
He can be cured. He can be given a
new start in life. He can be made the
arniable, companionable man he was of
old. He can once more eat with ap-
petite and enjoyment, work with energy,
and sleep the night through in sound,
dreamleSs slumber.
This is not a mere empty claim I'M
supported by facts. The statement that
the dyspeptic can be cured is made on
the authority of thousands of men and
women, who have been entirely cured

SCROFULA.

To cure SCrofula take
5cott's Emulsion.
Scrofula may be described as
=" scattered consumption"
1t is consumption of the
small glands under the skin,
md these break out into the
;ores. SCOTS Emulsion heals
these sores.
But there's more to the
story. The loss of flesh and
great weakness that comes
With Scrofula is a regular part
IF the disease-the same as in
consumption of the lungs.
For this as for the sores,
SCOTS Emulsion is just the
remedy.
Flesh and strength are
gained by the use of SCOTS
Emulsion quicker than in any
other way.
Scrofulous children improve

THE KICKER.
A Theory of His Rise and
Progress.

The word "kicker" is no more slang.
but an honorable term admitted by the
photographer to the round table of
English speech. This acceptance of the
word proves that there was a real need
for it that certain class of people had
no word in the English language to
ftly designate them. AS a class these
kicklers must be as modern as the word
which describes them. They are in eff
feet a new product of our latest civiliza-
ton. The word which describes the
kicker is picturesque. 1t suggests the
mule whose kicking is usually done out
