Proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn,' is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat

"A GOLDEN JUDGMENT.

A man was arrested not long ago in
Missouri for burglary. 1t seems he had
forced an entrance into large whole
gale store in the business district and
carried off a lot of valuable mercnan-
disc. The entrance was made through
q back window, during the noon hour.
The clerk who was left in charge of
the safe had gone to one of the offices
in another part of the building. The
safe, containing thousands in gold.
was carelessly left wide open and
access to this fortune was easy. The
thief locked the safe without taking a
cent, but it was discovered later that
every DOUGLAS PATENT CLOSET
had been stolen from the warerooms.
1t is readily seen by this that the
Douglas is more valuable than gold to
