WEEDS

Consumption is a human
weed fourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes i'm
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
TO take SCOttS Emulsion. 1t
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.

GREEKS SEEK EMPLOYMENT
Fruit Trade overcrowded and New
Lines Must Be Opened.

There has been established uptown,
probably the pioneer of other like agen-
cies, an employment bureau for Greeks,
who have become an important element
in the population of New York. At the
door are the flags of Greece and the
United States, and the announced pur-
pose of the agency is to find work for
male Greeks. There are practically no
female Greeks in New York.
The influx of Greeks into the United
States, which has been going on ac-
lively for many years, and which is
practically limited to New York and vi
entity few of the Greek immigrants go
ing either south or west, continues I'M
abated and the disparity between the
sexes in Greek immigration does not
decrease. During the first three months
of 1903 of LAPS Greeks who landed at
Ellis Island, 1880 were men and boys
and only forty-five were women or
girls. The Greek mems special adapta-
bility is al gardening or silk weaving.
Greece being one of the countries in
which the manufacture of silk and cul-
tivation of cocoons is important.
The Greeks who come to New York
are usually robust. They are much
taller than other immigrants from the
Mediterranean and they take to the
hard work required of all newcomers
without hesitancy or Sinking. Recently
they have overcrowded the retail and
wholesale fruit trade, for which they
have special fitness, and it has, there
fore, been found necessary by many of
them to seek other lines of employment,
particularly those lines in which the
competition with other workers is less
than in the fruit business The Greeks
of the city are generally industrious and
temperate.-New York Sun.

BROOKE MAY SUE.
Thinks County Commissioners
Have Been Negligent.

A. L. Brooke, who owns extensive
nurseries north of Soldier creek, has
threatened to bring suit against the
county commissioners unless bridges
across the creek are put in service at
once.
Mr. Brooke thinks that the commits
Sioners have caused unnecessary delay
in building the bridges washed away by
the flood and he thinks that the flooded
districts have not received proper al
tention.
There has been some delay which the
commissioners think was justifiable as
an examination of the wrecked bridges
was necessary and an effort was made
to recover them. After experimenting
the commissioners found that the best
way to get the bridges in service was
not to try to recover them but to let
contracts for the erection of bridges al
towing the bidders to use as much of the
material in the old bridges as is SER
viceable.
The commissioners have called for
bids, to be opened August 23, on the re-
building of the bridges across Soldier
creek on the Granville road.

AIS PER CENT ADVANCE.
Wages to Be Raised in Proportion to
Cost of Living.

Chicago, Aug. 1S-After receiving a
report from a corps of experts con-
corning the price of commodities in dis
tricts where the organized workingmen
of the city live, the Employers associa-
ton has discovered that the cost of liv-
ing has increased 10 per cent. during
the last five years, and has decided
that wages should be increased In like
ratio. IN many cases the increase al
ready has been granted; in future cases
this win be the basis of wage raises
For more than decade the employ
ers throughout the country have been
trying to find an equitable standard by
which wages may be adjusted, and the
Chicago association intends to test the
solution it has found. Whether or not
the labor organizations will accept It,
the employers intend to put 1t into
effect at once.

POLICE JOTTINCS.
Case of Charles Ford Cries for
Attention.
Neglected Wife and Her Newly
Born Infant.
THE CHILD is DEAD.
But Nothing Can BE Done to Mr..
Ford.
N GnI1A-r
THE CHILD is DEAD.
Two Cloth Sellers Arrested as
Suspicious Characters.

II is a shame that something can not be
done to Charles Ford, the man who was
arrested last evening at Eighteenth and
Harrison streets. Ford was arrested at
the request Of his wife. who says that his
neglect and drunkenness were responsible
for the death Of their eight-day-old infant.
When the child was born she says that he
failed to get a physician and Immediately
got on a bowling drunk. When the Off
GERS went after him yesterday they found
him lying in a drunken stupor in one room
while his child lay dead in another. The
poor woman who is hitched to him by the
''Holy bonds of matrimony'' is a fit can
didate for pity Ford was arrested and
held in fail over night, but now IL seems
can not even be fined for being drunk, be-
cause he was in his own house when ar
rested, and not drunk in a public
place" The charge of neglect would be
turned loose. Coroner Hogeboom says that
Ford is a degenerate of the worst type and
possibly Indirectly responsible for the
death OF the child, but it would be impos-
eible to stick him, as it has been ascer-
tanned that he started after a physician at
the birth Of the child, but was recalled by
his wife, who feared to stay alone. The
Infant is better Off than If it had lived.
The police are satisfied that they have
two exceedingly bad citizens OF Italy. The
two gentlemen In question were pinched
while peddling certain bolts of some kind
OF cloth resembling bleeched muslin. Their
operations we're confined to the southwest
part of the city. Before their grabulence
they had disposed of a number of bolts of
the goods and were not doing a retail
trade. They sold by the bolt only but were
rot particular about the price. Any old
