Does your horse "feel his
oats? What a difference be-
tween the granted and the
grass-fed horse! The first
strong and full Of ginger, the
second fabby, weak and tired
out before he begins. The
feeding makes the difference.
Children are not alike either.
One is rosy, bright-eyed, full
of life and laughter, another is
pale, weak and dull. Thefeed-
ing again is responsible
Sickly children need special
feeding. They don't feeltheir
OATS. SCOTS Emulsion adds
just the right richness to their
diet. It's like grain to the
horse. The child gets new
appetite and strong digestion.
SCOTS Emulsion is more
than food. 1t is a strong
medicine. 1t rouses up dull
children, puts new flesh on thin
ones and rcd blood into pale

Mr.. Clay and Mrs. Black each
gave an appeal bond in the sum
of $500, with Judge j. M. Marsh
and A. R. Cawthron of Triplett
as securities. The testimony
offered at the trial last Saturday
was decidedly sensational
character, and was made more
SO by the fact that Clay's two
daughters were willing witness
es against their father. One OF
the daughters said, on cross-ex-
animation by Capt. Wallace, that
she had told of the tmean things
her parental ancestor had done,
not because she disliked him,
but because she disapproved OF
his conduct. The state was rep
resented at the trial Saturday by
