HOW TO GAIN FLESH

The life of food is the fat
within 1.-THE more fat the
more real benefit from the
food; that is why cod liver
oil is a powerful builder of
flesh.
SCOTS Emulsion of pure
cod liver oil solves the prob
lem of how to take cod liver
oil. That is one reason why
doctors have been prescrib-
ing SCOTS Emulsion for all
wasting diseases, coughs, colds
and bronchitis for almost
thirty years.
One of the inducements
offered in order to substitute
something else for SCOTS
Emulsion is the matter of
cost. You save a few cents
at the expense of your health.
SCOTS Emulsion costs more
because it does more and does
it better than the substitutes.

Paper Stockings.

Paper gloves and stockings are now
being manufactured in Europe, AS to
the manner in which the former are
made little is known, but the stockings
have been carefully examined by cX-
perts, and they are loud in their praise
of them. Let no one assume, they say
that these stockings, because they are
made OF paper, will only last few
days, for they will last almost as long
as ordinary stockings. The reason.
they point out, is because the. paper OF
which they are made was during the
process of manufacture rendered into
a substance closely resembling wool,
and was then woven and otherwise
treated as ordinary wool.

Dreaming that she was putting UP
her hair and having difficulty in dis
entangling it from ner fingers, Mrs,
Ida Whalen of Logansport, Ind, woke
up to find a snake coiled around her
fingers.
She hastily flung the reptile to the
floor, and succeeded in killing it. In
the struggle the snake bit her several
times inflicting painful wounds. The
snake measured twelve inches and is
of the water snake variety, which are
not considered very poisonous.
The presence Of the snake is &C
counted for from tbs fact that the

brought this in the night and carried
it into the bedroom, springing upon
