The only kind of consump-
ton to fear is NEGLECTED
consumption"
People are learning that con-
sumption is a durable disease.
1t is neglected consumption
that is so often incurable.
At the faintest suspicion of
consumption get a bottle of
SCOTS Emulsion and begin
regular doses.
The use of SCOTS Emulsion
at once, has, in thousands of
cases, turned the balance in
favor of health.
Neglected consumption does
not exist where SCOTS Emul-
sion is.
Prompt use of SCOTS Emul-
sion checks the disease while it
can be checked.

GAVE UP HIS WIFE.
Candidate for Political Honors In Polk
County Has Romance.

Des Moines, March 12.-The romance
in the life Of A. l.. Steele, who was a
republican candidate for county attor-
rey, has just been revealed. Steele is
living in cosy little cottage with his
charming young wife, who secured a
divorce from her former husband,
Frank G. Lockwood. to marry Steele.
Steele was struggling young attor-
ney when Lockwood. a wealthy bust
ness man, employed him as counsel and
started him on the road to success.
They became fast friends and q warm
attachment sprang up between the
young attorney and the young wife OF
the attorneys client. They We're both
Mortified when they discovered into
what a maelstrom of passion they had
crifted. After weeks OF hesitation they
decided to confess to Lockwood
Lockwoods anguish of mind was
great, but he betrayed no anger toward
the wife and friend. He thanked them
for their honesty of purpose and re-
tired to his room to think out alone the
tragic problem presented to him.
When he emerged days after he
called Steele to his home and In the
presence of Mrs. Lockwood told Steele
he would resign his wife, and permit
her to secure a divorce, in order that
she might marry Steele and be happy,
but on one condition. That condition
was that he Nockwood) should be al
lowed to live under the same roof with
his then wife as long as he might de-
sire. The agreement was made and has
been faithfully kept.

ARE LOOKING FOR CHRIST.
Latter Day Saints at Lamont Await His
His COMING.

Lamont, Ia, March 12.-The church
of the Latter Day Saints, which has it's
eastern headquarters in this village, Is
making preparations for the second
corning of Christ. No date for the event
has been assigned, but the president of
the church, Joseph Smith, Jr., son of
the finder of the Book of Mormon. has
predicted 1t, and the faithful refuse to
believe otherwise.
Il shall live. as did the seer of old,
he said in a recent burst of phrophecy
ito see the Christ. When have seen
Him l can die happy. l shall have lived
my life and can die and go above, where
shall always be with Him and His
Father"
This prophecy, uttered by the descen-
dent of the man whom they honor as
the founder of their faith, has wrought
the people of Lamont to a fervor of en-
thusiasm such as that which brought
converts to the leader of the saints
when they started west from Palmyra,
N. Y, where the father of the Lamont
seer had given to him by the angels the
metal plates on which were craven the
Book Of Mormon.
Faithful disciples of the church at
Lamont peer eargerly into the faces OF
strangers who enter the town, in search
of the Christ They do no know the
manner of His coming. and it is COM
mon belief among them that He Will not
make His presence known until He has
been with them some time.
AS the people of Bolga prayed, so
pray the people of Lamont Here is the
seat of Mormonism of all that portion
of the church removed from the follow
ers of Brigham Young. A printing Of
flee, secular newspaper. college, a
home for the aged and other instltu-
tons are located at Lamont and sup
ported by the faithful. For miles
around around are scattered only the
converts and the disciples of the Book
of Mormon as revealed by the prophet
Joseph Smith and thru his son who
bears his name.
Smith is now sixty-nine years of age.
He dresses plainly. and might easily be
mistaken for retired farmer or bust
ness man of the country place instead
of a seer whose words have reused
thousands to scan the faces of a chance
visitor, In search for the Christ. He
was twelve years old when the mob at
Carthage, Ill.,, killed his father for
preaching the doctrine of Mormon.
