Consumption
Dolly

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive SO and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the eonsumptive needs
most.
observation-disclosures
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats. especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way. which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypoPhos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has special
action on the diseased lungs.

The home of MT. A. C. Danner on Government Street was thrown open last evening to his friends and acquaintanCes the occasion being the presentation to society of his daughter Miss Venetia Danner.
 The delft touch of the young dehutante, assisted by her friends, had turned the house into a flower garden. the parlors being filled with bamboo. palms and white and yellow chrysanthemums. The hallway followed the same scheme of decoration, the ballustrade trimmed with bamboo with white chrysanthemums caught at close intervals The tea room was the same with the addition of shaded candles to enhance the effect.
 At the door of the parlor stood Captain Danner with his daughter to welcome their guests. Miss Danner is a beautiful blonde whose beauty was never seen to greater advantage than on this occasion. She was all in white and wore white flowers in her blonde hair. Next to her stood her friend and guest, Miss Dora Northington of PrattNiiie Ala, a stun ming brunette. charmingly gowned in yellow with vivid red flowers on corsage and festo,usd in her dark hair. Mrs. McMillan came next in line and then there were a bevy of lovely debutantes, Miss Kathleen Williamson in blue silk, Miss May Prince in pink, Miss Kitty Allen in white and blue Miss Kate Crawford in pink, Miss Llith Foxey in yellow, Miss Julia Lake in white Miss Gould in white
 Miss Mary Pillans presided over the punch bowl which proved most at
