Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old.
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive SO and Ioc
years ago.
Salt pork is good if man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the conSumptiye needs
most.
Scott EmulSioniSth emod-
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.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
Of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phircs in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

A LIBERAL EDUCATION.
Come Comments on the Query Docs .
College Education PayT


Young people often ask us, "Will
it pay to 60 to college if one is going
to be merchant, druggist, .
farmer, etc. 2"
Whether or not a liberal educa-
ton pays depends upon the ambi-
ton of the inquirer. Do you want
to be just as much of man as pos
sible, or do you want merely to get
as much money as you can?
If your ambition is simply to see
how many goods you can sell and
how much money you can rake to-
gether; if you have no desire to
reach out into the broad fields, to
be known as a man who amounts to
something in the world, who carries
weight in his community; if you
have no ambition to be man OF
broad, liberal, progressive ideals; ii
you do not wish to know anything
about your goods before they reach
your store, where they are made or
the conditions of the people who
manufacture them and have no de-
sire to better their conditions; il
YOU have no ambition to make the
world little better than you found
it, then a college education will
probably not do you much good. If
It is simply going to increase your
capacity to grasp, seize and hold
material things, to get little more
away from others by your long
headed methods; if it is only going
to increase your shrewdness, your
ability to scheme ways and means
of piiing up more dollars, then I do
not advise you to go. But if you
want to be Of real help to your gen.
Grafton; if your ambition is to be
just as much of a man as possible,
to be larger and truer and nobleri
if YOU wish to make the most OF the
material the Creator has given you.
then get all the knowledge you can
transmute into real power.
l notice that it has been the
broadly educated men that have en-.
larged and improved the spheres
into which they have entered. Al
rule, it has been the boys who
have been to college and gained q
liberal education who have mixed
brains with the soil, who have de
veloped marvellous possibilities Of
agriculture by their knowledge OF G,
chemistry and botany, by their abil
ity to study the effects OF climatic
conditions upon crops, who have
brought fruits and vegetables anc
cereals to greater perfection by theil
superior knowledge.-Success.

Liquor and Seasiekness.

Regarding seasickness a traveller
says: "Before sailing it is just as
we'll for man not to take too many
farewell dinners and not to start
out with a head on him. One OF
the worst cases of seasickness | ever
saw was accumulated by man who
had never been seasick before and
had sailed all over the world. But he
was sailing from Honolulu and the
day before had been to a farewell
luau,' where he had eaten poi and
raw fish mixed with great deal OF
trapped champagne. His friends
came down to see him off and hung
many floral leis about his neck.
They also poured more champagne
into his neck. AS a result the acute
case of seasickness which he devel-
oped alarmed even the ships sur
pcOn."

One Of the most remarkable
cases on record of the imperfec-

brought prominently before the
public by the final release from
custody in England of Mrs. Flor
ence Elizabeth Maybrick, once SEN
fenced tc death for the murder OF
her husband, James Maybrick OF
Liverpool, England, who died OF
arsenical poisoning in the spring
of 1889. That this case does in
volve imperfection of justice is en-
tirsly obvious. If Mrs. Maybrick
was not guilty Of the crime, her
fourteen years of incarceration was
a tragic outrage. If she was guilty,
she should never have been set
