1|HE above picture of the
man and fish is the trade
mark ofScott's Emulsion,


and is the synonym fol
strength and purity. 1t is sold
in almost all the civilized coun.
tries of the globe.
If the cod fish became extinct
it would be q worldwide calam-
ity, because the oil that comes
from its liver surpasses all other
fats in nourishing and life-giving
properties. Thirty years ago
the proprietors of Scott's Emul-
sion found a way of preparing
cod liver oil so that everyone can
take it and get the full value of
the oil without the Objectionable
taste. Scott's Emulsion is the
best thing in the world for weak,
backward children, thin, delicate
people, and all conditions of
wasting and lost strength.

Baby Hippo's Narrow Escape.

The Popular Science Monthly tells
a story of hippopotamus mother love
that Is almost human. A baby hippo
potamus was born in an English ZOO"
He was about the size of a young
pig, pinkish in color and very play
full. One day when he was very
young, the baby diVed to the bottom
of the tank. He tried time after time
to climb up the sides, but 500 sank
back exhausted.
The keepers were gathered about
the tank in great anxiety, but unable
to help. The mother, however, hur'
ried to her baby with her clumsy
haste. She dived, put her broad nose
under him, and shovelled him up and
held him above the surface until he
had recovered his breath and was
rested.
1t was nearly half an hour before
the little fellow was able to make
another attempt. Then he made 6
huge effort. Mamma Hippopotamu'
gave a big shove with her head, ano
Baby Hippopotamus clambered trium
phantly up the side Of the tank.

Love on the Phone.

The manager of the big department
store stood stock-still outside the lit
tie box-lika chamber which held the
telephone of the establishment, for he
was q very startled manager indeed.
Within the chamber he coud hear
Miss Jones, the typewriter, speaking,
and this is a scrap of the conversa-
ton the scandalized man overheaad:
"I love you dear, and only you! I'm
weeping my heart away! Yes, my
darling, speak to me once more!
love you, dear-I love you SOL"
The young woman rang Off, and
stepped out of the cabinet to confront
the angry manager.
miss JONES' he said that tele'
phone has been fixed where it is for
the purpose of convenience in con
Quoting business, not for love-making
in Office hours. l am surprised al
YOU, Don't let it occur again!
The young woman froze him with
q glance. 81 was ordering some new

And then the manager felt thai TIL

Ways of the Orient.

There. is nothing very remarkable
In the report from Japan that a move
ment is on foot, supported by maRy
eminent men, to found a church pro
Christian in character, but i~ndepend-
ent In it's lines. When Buddhism was
disestablished and disendowed in the
early '70s of last century, owing to
the momentary ascendency OF shiuto,
which is merely vague ancestor and
nature worship, it was ~prophesled by
acute foreign observers tina. Japan
would either adopt Christianity or be.
come frankly materialistic. It will
not be owing to any lack Of energy on
the part of European and American
missionaries if the former course is
discarded. Here is one forecast pub
lished fourteen years ago: ITO make
all, Japan Christian by edict some
fine morning is not on the program OF
the japanese statesman Of the hour
But that something of the kind should
happen within the next twenty years
is not nearly SO unlikely as many
things that have actually happened In
this land of realized improbabilities.'

The Way Luck Comes

Philip Verrill Mighels, whose novel
"Bruver Jims Baby" has brought him
into prominence, tells of an amusing
experience of his earlier days.
He had been having an uphill strug-
gle In San Francisco as a sketch art
list. and was seriously in need of work.
He informed everyone he knew OF his
situation, and asked them to let him
know IL they heard Of q "job." He
waited and waited, but nothing turned
up.
Finally, when his situation had be-
come serious, and the next meal was a
nroblem, one OF his friends told. him OF
a newspaper that needed a reporter.
He applied for the position and got it.
He had no sooner settled to work
than two other friends informed him
that they had found work for him
one as a clerk to a lawyer. the other
as assistant to a scene painter. Per
hans Mr.. Mighels was thinking OF
this incident when he put the remark
into the mouth of Bruver Jim: Bad
luck has to associate with a little
good luck nee in a while to appear
sort of halfway respectable.

her condition for that OF the old-fash
Toned marriage relation. It is the
same way with the men. There is
nothing in human effort that can
bring complete happiness to either
man or woman, in single or double
life. Getting through the world is a
rather heavy responsibility at the
best.
The old plan, though. of the man
going out into the world and taking
the hard knocks and winning the
bread, and the woman presiding over
the house and doing her graceful part
to the rising generation. is the natur.
al and ideal condition.
A great many of the ONE Of our
time have not been raised or edu.
Gated for the pride and beauty of do
mesticity. They have been brought
up for clerks in the United States
Treasury Department, and stano,
graphers in counting rooms, and "sich
like" and the current talk about the
happy life Of "the bachelor girl" is
rank heresy. The phrase bachelor
girl" ought to be expunged. 1t is an
afront to womanhood.
And all the upset condition of
things is not the fault of the women
who work in occupations formerly
monopolized by men. They are
bravely doing the best there is for
them to do, and a lot of the men are
loafing about doing nothing. They
have not the touch of refinement to
do women's work. There has been
no trade Of employment between the
sexes. A considerable number of the
young men of the country have been
simply 'side-tracked."- - Cincinnati

Gen. Nelson A. Miles, though the hui
NOR Is always grim.
I'm one Of my most perilous Indian
campaigns I overheard a group Of pri-
Yates saying goodnight to one another
on the eve of an engagement. These
youths were in different regiments.

able enough that they would lever see

The Mystery Of a srieand's Head.

From Sicily comes a CHASTITY story
reminiscent of the Middle Ages. A
rams head in an advanced state OF
accommodation was found impaled on
a most outside the walls OF Palermo.
Attached to the post was a card bear
ing the words: "This is the head OF
the infamous brigand Varsalona.
This curious discovery was made cn
the property of a certain Paron AMI
ello who took a prominent part In
the trial of the notorious Varsalona
for murder, and offered a large re-
ward for his capture.
when the daughters OF the brigand
were confronted with the head one
declared it vas that Of hcr father,
hut the other denied it. The brigands
sweetheart, however, recognized the
head by the filling In a front tooth.
Great excitement prevailed "a
SICILY az the result of this strange
occurrence. The inhabitants in the
