Last FIidav's Game.

The game Yesterday was not mnch
better than the one the day before, but
fortunately the visitors were the ones
who were up in the air and Columbia
had an easy time of it. King Bailey
was in the box for Columbia and though
he was found for fifteen hits, they were
fairly we'll scattered Bailey, however,
did not exert himself at any stage of the
game.
The game was very tame exhibition
and featureless except the brilliant run

Young P |antS

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
md seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
of food, but because the food
does not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion reallyfeeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsion seems TO find
it and set the matter right.

Clyne's scheme might work If the dis

is the case. Chester l. Long carried the
