SEPARATE TRAFFIC MANAGERS.
For Road Supposed to Be Controlled
BY Northern Securities Company

FOR Road Supposed to Be Controlled
BY Northern Securities Company
Chicago, Jan. 6.-The impression
that Darius Miller was to have charge
of the traffic of the Northern Pacific
as well as of the Burlington, seems to
be wrong. Mr.. Miller said today that
he would have no authority over the
traffic of the Northern Pacific or the
Great Northern and that his efforts
would be confined to the traffic of the
Burlington. This assertion is borne
out by a circular issued over James
J. Hills signature, to the effect that
Vice President Blabon will have
charge of the traffic of the Great
Northern and will be assigned to the
duties of Darius Miller, formerly sec
ond vice president of the Great North
ern, who resigned to accept service
with the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
Railroad company.

day. A courier onc performed a jour
ney Of go miles in four days. When
five dogs are used, two and two are
driven abreast, with the leader in
front. They r tractable unless the
whip is too freely used. when they
will fall to worrying each other. The
dogs are trained to hunt seals and the
polar bear, and they fight to the death
even among themselves. They swim
well too. When they sleep, they make
a bed for themselves by e%xcavating
the snow with their paws and nose, aft
er which they bury themselves in the
hole, leaving nothing but the nose ex-
posed.

atrocities are daily being committed by
the English soldiers. Naturally their
Indignation is aroused, not disinterest-
eddy or ~ingenuously.
"This is true of the people generally,
but not of the government itself. The
opinion in Great Britain is that Ger
many as a nation has played very fair
~. The ~unfavorable sentiment is by
no means the creation Of Emperor VIII
liam. But all this storm of protest
will die out, as such agitations do. 1t
is not to Germany's interest to quarrel
with England"
In closing the interview Mr.. Parker
spoke of the reconciliation of the
Beers, their future and the future of
Africa, growing out of the confedera-
ton Of the South African colonies,
which. he said. would take place with
in the next decade.
"Two-thirds of the Beers are English
speaking" he said. ''and SO are more
homogeneous and will more readily as
simulate English customs and princi-
pies and be mere readily reconciled
than in French Canada. where the Ian
guage and religion were different.
There is no real difference between-the
Dutch religion ana ours. So after the
termination of the unfortunate strug-
gle the conditions will be nor favor
able than is usually the case In such
conflict for a prosperous and benehcent

ON for the
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, anemic child,
and his face becomes rosy and
full of health. Take q 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
is the one.
SCOTS Emulsion neither
looks nor tastes like oil because
we are so careful in making it
pleasant to take.
