Like the running brook, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs of red blood are
found in the soft core of the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full Of fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
marrow and the spleen with
the richest of all fats, the pure
cod liver oil.
For pale school girls and
invalids and for all whose
blood is thin and pale, SCOTS
Emulsion is a pleasant and rich
blood food. It not only feeds
the blood-making organs but
gives them strength to dc
their proper work.

KERNEL CORN HuMBLEp.

Mr. Thomas W Russell, the Irish nationalist mem,
Der of parliament who made argument against
maize being taxed In common with other grains under
what is known as the duties BILL uttered what
would be considered capital Irish bu-from an
American view point
Maize is used in Ireland not only for animals
food but as human food by the poorest of the poor
Maize Indian corn, does not grow in England or
Ireland any and is classed animal food for
that reason. If it product of the soil of the
ould dart it would be popular the table of Irish

He might chance to present Mr., Russell with a bot,

However, If the Chicago bulls have their way or the

America the price of the cereal will reach point
