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
ment.

DR.. HILTON POINTS OUT DANGERS

Cold Neglected Brings Catarrhal Weak.

81 want every strong, healthy young
woman to know" said DIR. G. W. Hilton,
the famous specialist, "that the chasm
which separates her from her weak,
haggard and suffering sisters can be easily
spanned by an ordinary cold.
"a cold is form of catarrh. A cold
neglected, all too often means the deyel-
opment of catarrhal conditions which take
all the life out of a woman and doom her
to years of martyrdom.
Frequently the danger of neglecting
a cold is far more Notwithstanding,
pneumonia and consumption.
Therefore take my advice. Treat a
cold as the pitiless foe it is and get it out
of your system as quickly as you CAM

pleasant cure for colds, grip and throat
troubles and a positire a,recentatice for

fond of the ''little sugar pills " and take
them without objection.

flood came Maggie Tulliver was in st.
Oggs, at Bob Jakin's house on the
river; and when she was turned adrift
in her boat she was carried down with
the wreckage of the wharves below the
town to the Ripple, where she rescued
her brother from Doricote, and then
persisted with him opposite "Tofton."
The ripple was a few miles below St.
Oggs, on the opposite bank OF the
Floss, and the Tullivers, when they
rode from the mill into town, would
cross the river by the great stone
bridge. and occasionally meet the Lace
ham or Laneham stage.
Mr.. Tulliver's apprehensions respect
ing the devastating march of modern
Improvement have been justified. The
mills on the Floss are now factories,
coated with smudge from high smoke
stacks.
Yet so vital figure is George Eli
OTIS heroine that she imparts romantic
interest to one of the dullest among
English factory towns and one Of the
barest and most somber river reaches.
Without the memory of Maggie Tul-
liver, Gainsborough would be prosaic
factory town Of oil refineries and agri-
cultural machinery, with a few quaint
gabled houses to break the dull lines of
the operatives dwellings. Without a
glimpse Of that resolute woman's face,
with eyes intent upon recognizing in
the flooded fields the tips of the gray
willows, the yellow chestnuts and the
Scotch frs as she was swept by the
food toward Dolcote MILL the Trent
would be devoid of human interest.
The Ripple may have shrunk into a
drainage ditch, and there may be too
many factories with foul chimneys on
the Floss, but there is bit of dream
land remaining from the Red Deeps.-

A MINER RESCUED.
How Help Came in a Time OF
Emergency.
A Dubuque Man Was in a Situation OF
Great Pain and Peril and Was Al
most Hopeless.

'Tn the lead mines I was at work on
my knees with my elbows pressed
against rock walls, in dampness and
extremes OF cold" said Mr.. j. G.
Meukel, of 1916 Jackson avenue,
Dubuque, Iowa, in describing his ex-
perience to reporter, land it is not
surprising that I contracted rheu-
matism. For three years I had attacks
affecting the joints of my ankles, knees
and elbows. My ankles and knees be-
came so swollen could scarcely walk
on uneven ground and little pressure
from stone under my feet would cause
so much pain that I would nearly sink
down. I was often obliged to lie in bed
for several days at a time. My friends
who were similarly troubled were
getting no relief from doctors and did
not feel encouraged to throw money
away for nothing. BY chance | read
the story of Robert Yates of the Klauer
Manufacturing Co., of Dubuque, who
had a very bad case of rheumatism. I
decided to try DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People, the remedy he had
used. In three or four weeks after be-
ginning to use the pills, was much
DStlCl diiu III eiiISe IIlOlllllo was "Cii'
The swelling of the joints and the
tenderness disappeared, 1 could work
steadily and for eight years / have had
no return of the trouble. My whole
family believe in DR.. Williams Pink
Pills. Both my sons use them. We
consider them household remedy that
we are sure about"
This is convincing testimony, easily
verified, from plain, earnest man who
knows that he has escaped the clutches
of 4. terrible disease and who is pro-
foundry grateful and anxious to help
others.
Mr.. Meukel is thrifty miner, and
well-knoWn citizen of Dubuque. NO
one could imagine that he had reached
his SEVENTEEN year as he is seen going
to his daily work with vigorous step
and erect bearing. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills did more for him than simply give
relief. They eradicated the disease by
getting at the seat of the difficulty in
the blood. These pills are equally
efficacious in the treatment OF other
obstinate troubles such as locomotor
ataxia, partial paralysis, st. Vitus'
dnce, sciatica, neurlgia, nervous head
ache, after-effects of the grip, anaemia
and all forms of weakness either IN
male or female. They are sold by all
druggists, or may be obtained directly
from the DIR. Williams Medicine Co.,

or six boxes for two dollars and half.

It is "The Mill on the Floss" that
lures the sentimental traveller to the
lower reaches of the Trent. Tradition
whispers of the love making of the he
role Saxon king who founu his queen
among the Lincoln fens and wolds;
and scores of romances can be staged
for the old baronial manor house in
Gainsborough; but Maggie Tulliver is
the ghostly figure that haunts forever
the grassy hollows and swollen cur
rents of this tranquil English plain.
For the Floss is surely the Trent hur-
rying on between green banks to the
sea; and the loving tide, rushing to
meet it, checks it's passage with an i'm
petuous embrace"
The Trent is the Floss and Gains
borough is st. Oggs. The town lies
between the river and the low hill
where Roman legions were encamped
and the Danes came up from the
mouth of the Humber to pillage and
devastate. 1t still shows it's aged flut-
ed red roofs and the broad gables of
it's wharves on the brink of the river;
and if the brick tenement houses in the

or house. where Maggie Tulliver had
her social triumph in the charity bazaar,
remains quaint and picturesque with
its half timbered body, its oak rooted
hall. it's stone oriel and it's Gothic fac
ade. The church with an ancient bel
fry can readily be found; the coal and
lumber barges are still passing up and
down the river; and the sacks of oil
bearing seed from Russia are heaped
upon the worm eaten wharves. 1t is
still fine old red Oggs;" but where is
the ripple with Dolcote mill sheltered
by elms and chestnuts?
The sentimental rambler who at
tempts to find local color for George
Eliot's pathetic story will not go up
stream from Gainsborough toward

stone mill on the Floss. When the

Isn't too little attention paid by you
young readers to the order in which
you read books? 1t is not difficult to
obtain lists of books SO arranged that
each helps in the understanding and
appreciation of the following one. In
the reading of Scott, for example,
wouldn't it be wise to take them-or
those you prefer-in the order of their
time? First comes Count Robert of
Paris" then 1.-The Betrothed," next
THE Talisman' and 'Ivanhoe," then
castle Dangerous" 1.-THE Fair Maid of
Perth" Quentin Durward" and "Anne
of Geierstein"-all of which are of
times before the discovery of America
by Columbus. Reading them in this
order one has better idea of the early
times and appreciates each the more
because of those before. If you are
just beginning to read Scott try taking
the books chronologically in this way.
