"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.

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.

The Letter an. IN Mother

1t has been pointed out as a curious
fact that the letter IN" in almost all
known languages English, French,
Latin, Spanish, Greek. Hebrew, Chi
nese and the others-is to be found in
the word which stands for mother or
nurse. Perhaps this is owing to its
representing sound which exists In
every spoken speech and has the same
pronunciation in them I'LL. 1t is also
exceedingly easy to utter and is one OF
the first sounds that children make,
and 1t therefore naturally enters into
tie appellntion given to the nursing
parent III the first cries of recognition
and affection There is no doubt ut al
that INA" and the other baby names
for mother originated directly from tbs
child

has been a rickety affair, in fact,
never was what it ought to have
BEEN The county has paid enough
in repairs to have put in good iron
bridge, one long enough SO that the

time we have a heavy shower. The
