Proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn,'' is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.

placed the weapon under is pillow.
Shortly after eight o'clock this morn
ing Mrs. Tilden, who was in the dining
room on the first floor .called to her
husband, who was asleepin his room,
to come to breakfast. A few minutes
