ADD UP THE GAINS.

The virtue of one dose is so
small you can't see any change.
But add together all the little
virtues from all the little doses
and the effect is very marked.
In consumption, as in other
cases, the results secured from
continued treatment with
SCOTS Emulsion come from
the accumulation of many
small gains. A little gain in
strength each day-a little
gain in weight each day-if
continued for weeks, amounts
to something.
The fact that SCOTS Emul-
sion can be taken for so long
a time without the slightest
inconvenience is greatly in Its
favor as a medicine for con-
sumptives. Such a medicine
gives itself time to do good.
1t makes new flesh and

Councilman Fowler suggested whe n
the $500 for parks was read that the
city release Yeiser park, or the court
house yard, and bet the county pro-
vide for its maintenance. The city
took the place of the county's hands
several years ago in order to convert it
into park, which it never did, and
the county has ever since refused to
take it back. Mayor Yeiser approved
the suggestion, however, and efforts
will be made to have the county take
care of the park.
An argument resulted when the or
dinanoe was brought up for vote and
City Attorney Worten stated that the
way the ordinance was drawn any
taxpayer could refuse to pay the
tax on the ground that the ordin-
ance does not state the per cent OF
the rate that is to go to each fund,
which is required in the new charter.
Mayor Yeiser was inclined to diner
with him by quoting a law providing
that the council may amend, alter or
make changes in, any ordinance they
see fl, but it was decided that the
document is not an ordinance yet
never having been given passage and
the law cannot apply. The ordinance
was then referred back for recon
struction and the board adjourned.

the chances are many that he would be
rated high by his widow IL he should meet
with a fatal accident and the response
bility for the accident be fixed. Even as 1t
is. it does not appear that Mrs. Tolton re-
CARDS her husband as especially objection
able. and it is noted that she greeted her
neighbors on her return with a show OF in
difference and went to her home as If glad
to get there. Although Tolton shipped her
to Chicago with only s. in her pocket. it is
just pOssible-women being such unaccount-
able creatures-that she cherishes toward
him sufficient wifely feeling to give excuse
for indifference to neighbors who were
about to hang him during her absence.
Several interesting lessons might be
drawn from this episode by the persons
most concerned. The best citizens" Of
Westville should note the danger that lies
in minding other peoples business too
closely; Mr.. Tolton should invite his neigh
bors to accompany him to the station when
he sends his wife on another excursion, and
Mrs. Tolton should read the newspapers
when she goes away from home. Come TO
think of it, though, is it certain but that
she did read the papers, and, just TO get

Under the caption, "A Southern Man for
President" the Memphis Appeal says that
the Democrats of the South are never
thought of when it comes to the selection
of a candidate for President. The Demo-
Gratis of the South can furnish two-thirds
Of the Democratic members of Congress.
but when it comes to selecting a candidate
for President the leaders act upon the as
sumption that a Southern man cannot be
thought of. 1t says that 1.-The ex-Confed-
crate has been intrusted with the federal
sword and uniform and given the command
of armies. and he proved his loyalty" True
but who intrusted ex-Confederates with the
command of armies? Not the Democrats.
but a Republican President who had abso-
lutte faith in the loyalty and ability of such
men a. General Fitzhugh Lee, General
Wheeler and General Butler, of South
Carolina. When a Republican President
put these ex-Confederates in places Of hon
or and responsibility his party heartily
approved. The Appeal asks: IF Fitz-
hugh Lee and General Wheeler are intrust-
ed to command armies in time of war, can
they not be trusted TO preside in the White
House?" If the Democrats believe they
can be trusted why do they not nominate
General Lee for President? He would
doubtless fail TO receive the approval OF
Mr.. Bryan. because General Lee was not
believer in IS to 1. but he cannot control
the Democratic party always. The Appeal
mentions General Wright, acting chairman
of the Philippine Commission and now dis
charging the duties OF Governor General
with unquestioned ability. The Appeal
asks, and the Journal joins ii in asking,
why the Democratic party does not NOM
mate General Wright. an ex-Confederate
Democrat. II he or General Lee were the
! Democratic candidate for President no Re-
publican of prominence would oppose him
because he was Confederate soldier thirty
six years ago. Unfortunately. such men

The differences of opinion expressed by
those in the Catholic Church regarding the
retirement of the friars from the Philip
pines are largely those of men quite promi-
nent in the church. but, far as eX-
pressed the preponderance of opinion is in
favor Of withdrawal sooner or later. The
Pontiff and the Vatican are in favor Of
withdrawal as soon as it can be done with
out embarrassment. The Pope, who is
beyond the partisan influence which may
affect many Catholics in this country, has
expressed confidence that the President will
treat his church with consideration.

twenty or thirty passengers on an Atlantic
steamship to refrain from eating meat dur
ing a recent voyage across, promising that
such abstinence would result in immunity
from seasickness. Not one of the members
suffered a moments illness, and it might
be thought, therefore, that vegetarianism
scored a point; but, unfortunately. as 1t
happened, none of the other passengers

was begun. 1t leaves the case to be de-
termined by the courts upon an interpre-
tation of the law rather than upon the
facts. AS it would have been sure TO be-
come a question OF law in any event, the
criticism OF Mr. Bryan and others that a
should have been brought in the first in
stance has no force. The Interpretation OF
the law would have been involved in any
case. and the progress toward a decision
would not have been fastened. Nor is
there any warrant for the hasty conclusion
of a few papers that the final decision will
be in favor Of the packers.
