Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the conSulnptive needs
most.
Scott'S SEmulsionisthem
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypoPhos-
phites in Scott'S Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

Biliousness and liver disorders at
this season may be prevented by
cleansing the system with DeWitt's
Little Early Risers. These famous
little pills do not grippe. They move
the bowels gently, but copiously, and
by reason of the tonic properties,
give tone and strength to the glands.

THE WISE MERCHANT.
Docs Not Sell You an Article That You
E- Do Not Want.

"When I was young fellow, maks
ing my first essay as retail sales
man, said successful Broadway
business man, to a New York Herald
reporter, "the proprietor Of the store
used to give me good deal Of good
advice, and some that wasn't so good.
But it was all kindly meant, and |
took it, using my own judgment as
TO how much of some Of it I could DO
better without. One Of his standbys
was: ANY kind Of clerk can sell
goods to customer when he wants
them; it is only skilled clerk who
can sell customer what he doesn't
want Now that looks all right in
theory and a good many business
men still hold that it is sound, and in
struct their clerks to follow it.
+. 'But I do not, nor do think it is
good business. Of course, if clerk
can sell customer something for
two dollars, say, when the customer
wanted something in the same line
for dollar and half, that shoWsthe
clerk to have the proper qualities
tions, provided the customer finds the
two dollar grade SO much better than
the cheaper that he is more than sat
isfeld, as he will be in the majorityof
instances. H..
'But taks it the other way. A GUS.
toner wants a hat or piece Of goods
or a certain kind Of shoes, Or some
thing else in which his personal taste
and feeling are paramount. The
clerk can't show just what is wanted,
though he may know that it can be
had somewhere, and he proceeds to
prove to the customer that the goods
the clerk can show are the latest in
style and are popular and all that, and
finally persuades the customer to buy
what he didn't want. He has made
his sale all right and has shown his
skill thus far, but what Of the Gus
toner? When he gets the article
home and puts it on he doesn't like
it any more than he did when he had
his mind set on what he did like, and,
in addition, he doesn't like the clerk
for persuading him to get something
he didn't want, and be doesn't like
the house that employs such clerk,
and the result is that possibly very
good and permanent customer is lost
for the sake Of single sale Of two or
three or five dollars. $50
'No, stree, I don't have it in my
place. I instruct my clerks first of
all, to please customer. If he can't
be pleased any other way than by
sending him off to some other con-
Germ that does have what he wants,
he is sent there, and he is told where
he can have the best chance to find
what he wants. If he is satisfied
there, he doesn't forget the courtesy
my clerk extended to him when he
was in need, and all the chances Az
that will get a lot more Of his future
trade than the man does to whom my
clerk sent him.
81 never try to instruct my GUS
toners in what they want unless they
show plainly that they do not know,
or are so undecided that my knovl-
edge is of value to them and they APP
preciate the advice I may be able to
give"

School Enrolment.

County superintendent Geo. w.
Colgate is greatly pleased with the en-
couraging character OF the reports sent
in by the teachers in relation TO she
schools OF the county, most OF which
opened last week. Although h- ha-
not heard from all of the schools. he
feels justified in making the statement
that the total enrolment is consider
ably in excess Of the registration at the
same time last year, and that the out
look was never brighter for scucessful
terms work than 1t is at present.
AT the close OF last week there was
enrolled in the Canon City schools ss2
pupils, 500 OF which were in grades b :
low the high school. In South Canon
there we're 45o in grades below the
high school, which contained "A pupils.
In Florence there were 756 in the
grades below the high school and 81 in
that department. Chandler had 40
and Williamsburg 30 pupils.

The image measures full twenty -nye

FATE FOLLOWS APARTMENTS
Tragedies Commence Even Before the
Structure is Com
pleted.

Copyright. 1903. by Press Publishing Coz
PARIS, April 1S.-(New York World Ca
blegram-Special Telegram. )-There is an
apartment house in Paris that has been
marked from the day of its completion by
fatality. While It still bore the green
branch, which here indicates the unhn-
ished building, an unidentified tramp
hanged himself in a little shop on the
ground floor.
This was soon followed by the death
Of an old woman, who suffocated herself
in the garret. Then a young couple
killed one another in an apartment, and a
young woman poisoned herself in another
Next a girl of is threw herself from a
window.
The people in the quarter began to point
at the house, shake their heads and whis-
per mysteriously. But the house still has
inmates, for the most part students who
mock at superstitious fears.
Jules Bots, a psychological expert, was
consulted about the suicide house, and ad-
vanced two theories. One is that OF the
spiritualists and occultists. who believe
that evil spirits frequent certain places and
pursue people who enter with evil thoughts
until they commit some crime against
themselves or others.
The second and more interesting theory
is that Of psychic contagion. He asserts
that the vital fluid force which every in
dlvidual possesses does not expire when
the suicide dies, but may linger at the
place of his death to carry the subtle
suggestion of self-destruction TO another
occultists are considering the advisable
! ity OF making a scientific study Of the sui
| eide house.
