Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old.
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive SO and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
Scots sEmulsionis the mod
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feening him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
Scott Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in Scott's Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

 The residence of G. S Kendricls, on Thirteenth avenue and Nineteenth street, North, was slightly damaged by fire yes terday about noon. spark on the roof was the cause.

From the Chicago Tribune.
 The value of a young womans esteem and affection was placed at $5 yesterday by Justice Sabath. The price was fixed in a suit by David Fieldman against Charles Liebman, a tailor, at 161 West Madison street. Fieldman had suit of clothes made by Liebman, to be ready before a certain Sunday. On calling for the clothes he was told they were not finished.
 q lost a good friend by not having the clothes that day." F'eldman said. T had an engagement with a young woman, but. of course, could not keep it without the new clothes. As a result I lost favor with her and am no longer her friend"
 The suit was brought for $20O, but Jus tice Sabath held that Fieldman had been damaged precisely to the extent of S5. A judgment against the plaintiff for the price of the clothing less the $5, was rendered, and the tailor was instructed to see to 1t that he gave perfect fit

SOME RATHER LENGTHY WORDS
EtymoIogIsts at Luncheon Give Some
 Rare and Startling Specimens.

Some etymologists, at their luncheop of sandwiches and sarsaparilla were laughing over the question of long words. The first one said that the long est one in his experience was to be found in Eliot's Indian Bible. He pronounced the word and 1t was as though he were delivering an oration in an unknown tongue. Then he wrote 1t down, says the Record It was:
 Wutteppessittukgu ussunoowehtunkquoh
 The man exclaimed that this word meant the act of kneeling before the Lord in prayer"
 second etymologist, smiling, said: "There was a book printed in the seven teenth century that was full of long words. scientific work 1t was, and it's very title was unwieldy." He wrote the title as follows:
 Panzoologicomineral
 The third etymologist then recalled that there was seventeenth century tragedy of the name of "Crononhotonth- ologos," the opening words of which were
 "Crononhotonthologos, where left you Acknowledgements 2"
