Blood

Feed pale girls on SCOTS
Emulsion.
We do not need to give all
the reasons why SCOTS
Emulsion restores the strength
and flesh and color of good
health to those who suffer
from sick blood.
The fact that it is the best
preparation of Cod Liver Oil,
rich in nutrition, full Of healthy
stimulation is a suggestion as
to why it does what it docs.

TRAPPERS AFTER

INDUSTRY WORTH THOUSANDS

The marshes along the Blackbird

for muslSrats. Although excessively
high tides have done much damage to
marshes I'm the past summer. old trap
pers assert that prospects are favorable
for a good catch, and good prices are
anticipated for fur The trapper, in
rubber boots, is wading the muddy
marsh in search of leads" in which to
set his traps. His work must be ac-
complished on low water i'm order to
find the subaqueous passages to and
from the rat houses, known as leads"
which are difficult to find by any one
but those wise in muskrat lore.
Trapping is an art that can only be
acquired by long experience. Steel
traps and "snooges" ere the chief Inn

contrivances, by which the rat is made
to hang itself. Taylor's Bridge is one
