Consumption.

The only kind Of consump-
ton 10 fear is . neglected
consumption
People arclearningtha con-
sumption is a durable disease.
1t is neglected consumption
| that is so often incurable.
At the faintest suspicion Of
consumption get a bottle of
SCOTS Emulsion and begin
regular doses.
The use of SCOTS Emulsion
at once, has, in thousands Of
cases, turned the balance in
favor Of health.
Neglected does
not exist where Scots Emul-
sion is.
Prompt use Of SCOTS Emul-
sion checks the disease while it
can be checked.

THEY MUST PROVE UP
Minneapolis Teachers Anxious to
Leave for Western Claims.

superintendent c. NJ Jordan will de-
termine the fate of eighteen or twenty
school teachers w no have taken stone and
timber claims in Washington and who are
required to "prove up" at once. The
members Of the school board discussed
the matter at some length last evening and
even went into executive session over the
matter, but, finally decided to give DR..
Jordan authority to act. The number Of
substitute teachers is more than large
enough to fill all the places. 1t has been
estimated that the teachers can make
their trip to Washington to prove up
and return within five days. thus losing
only three school days. 1t is understood
that the necessary leaves Of absence will
be granted.
The school directors decided to ask the
board Of tax levy to allow a levy of SIS
mills for school purposes, this being an
increase Of 1 mill and in addition to the
state levy of 1 mill. It is estimated that
s1.025,0 900 will be required next year, the
principal item being $685. 900 for salaries.
At the request of J. T. Elwell permis-
sion was given to advertise the Banda
Rosa concerts at the. International audi
toriunl in the public schools. Teachers
and pupils will be admitted for 10 cents
at the matinee concert tomorrow.
The board has forbidden contests be-
tween schools for valuable prizes on &C
count Of the ill-feeHng engendered. A
committee consisting of DIR. Jordan and
Directors Hawley and Bintliff was au-
thorized to confer with the Minneapolis
Society of Fine Arts regarding some other
method of securing works OF art for the
schools.

A Safe Laxative
Don't Ruin Your System with Dangerous
Drugs, Purgatlves and cathartics
When a Better, Simpler Remedy
Is to Be Had from Any

Don't confuse q gentle, upbuilding tonic
laxative, such as Iron-OX Tablets, with
the violent, destructive cathartics and pur-
gatives so widely advertised and common
ly used.
Iron OK Tablets relieve constipation by
stimulating the stomach and bowels to
natural action. They tone up the entire
digestive system, causing perfect diges-
tion, perfect assimilation and natural
flow of fluids, SO that purgatives and ca
thartics are unnecessary.
and causing normal action Of the liver and
kidneys, Iron-Ox Tablets purge the blood
Of impurities which cause distiguring
skin eruptions and disease.
Besides this, they contain in convenient
form the active principle of nerve and
brain food, so that they are unequaled
system builders.
Any remedy which shocks the system
into activity Is dangerous. Do not expect
immediate perceptible effects from IRON
OK Tablets. They produce natural. reg
ular building up Of all the bodily func-
tions. This takes little time. but a
successful result is absolutely certain.
DO not confound Iron-Ox Tablets with
LIQUID preparations which are simply
drugged alcohol and which create a habit
which is nothing moro nor less than alco-
holisr1. Iron-Ox Tablets build UP the
system slowly-they cannot create a
"habit."

aluminium case, 20 cents at druggists, or
sent, postpaid. on receipt Of price, by The

Fits.
Baby Had Two to Six
Every Day.
Suffered Terribly
Doctors Failed.
DR.. Miles Nervine Cured
Him.

Weak, nervous, fretful, puny children re-
quire treatment such as only DR.. Miles,
Ncrvine affords. When neglected these
symptoms lead to epileptic fits or spasms.
Every mother should strengthen her own and
babies nerves with DR.. Miles Nervine, a true
specific in all nervous disorders. Read the
following: .
"When my little boy was Is months old
he had cramps in his feet and hands. They
would be drawn out of shape for two or three
days. At first liniment seemed to help but
in about two weeks nothing did any good
the doctor gave him. We called another
doctor but his medicine did no good SO we
changed to another who called it spinal dis
ease. By this time the child's body was
drawn out of shape; his backbone was curved
to one side and his hands and feet out of
shape. His sufferings were terrible, and he
was having from two to six hts day. I was
taking DR.. Miles Restorative Nervine for
nervous trouble and saw it was recommended
for fits, so thought would see if it would
help him. All three doctors had given him
up. One-halt bottle stopped the fits and his
limbs Strengthened, and another bottle cured
him. He is now strong, healthy boy going
to school. l have waited to see if the old
trouble returned, before writing you, but it
never has. cannot praise DR.. Miles Nerv-
Inc enough, as know it saved my boys
life."-MRs URIAH NELSON, Lansing, Iowa.

QUESTION ANSWERED.

We want to ask you, Brother Har-
ris, Of the Ocala Banner, one question,
and We want you TO answer straight,
/. e., We want you to tell Us the truth.
OF course if We should ask you what
the population of OcaIa is, or what
the Banners circulation is, We
shouldn't expect the truth, so We will
not ask about those things, but to
what we are now about to ask you,
We hope you will true answer make,
even if you have to strain point
and make al exception. Here's the
question: Do you really believe that
the letter you published "a Mrs
Brakes account Of the death, etc, Of
her son, the letter you speak OF a.
1.-The heartbrOken mothers story OF
the death of her child" was writteL
by Mrs. Brake, or do you believe-as
others do-that the letter was the
work Of some attorney who probably
got Mrs. Brake to sign it, for the pur-
pose OF creating sentiment against
CallisOn? Now, Brother Harris,
answer straight.-Gainesville Star.
We might believe that some paid
attorney inspired and perhaps have
written Brother GOdwin's feelingless
editorials about this sad affair.
but We cannot believe paid
attorney could have poured out
the love and sorrow of a mothers
broken heart as Mrs. Brakes letter
did.
1t was entirely without the ring OF
cold metal and was, permeated
with the warmth of a mothers loss
and love.
1t seems TO Us it should have pierced
reformer GOdwin's heart through
and through.

NO ORANGES LIKE FLoRIDas.

years since the crop here in Florida
has beeen short. We are glad To- be
able to answer the question whether

risky or not with "no" and to he

will see good many Of those "old

The following is the article referred
to from the y. Y. Press:
LET US call halt on the orange
growers. Are they breeding and
