Young Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
Others. Soil may be the same
and 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
II 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 20 find
Il and set the matter right.

1t is said that the immediate cause
of the attack was a message sent yes

night at the columbia hotel Lieutenant
Governor Tillman said to a group OF
friends:
Gonzal has sent me word that when
we meet again we shall settle our diff
