MOTHER AND CHILD

Scott's Emulsion IS cod liver oil made almost as palatable as milk. It is easy and soothing to the weak stomach; it checks the ten dencies of children toward thinness.
 Scott's Emulsion gives strength to weak mothers be- cause it creates healthy flesh and new blood.
 Nursing mothers will find a special value in Scott's Emulsion because it insures a flow of rich. nourishing milk for the baby. More and better than a medicine Scott's Emulsion is a food.

ed chairman, Clyde Miller secretary.
A stormy conference of thu candidates
on the state ticket was held in the

vote should count only as one in the
selection of chairman. He held out
against the naming of Joel R. Bur
rows, who had the votes of ten candi-

total of fifteen. Hoch would not
stand for it, and so Burrow had to get
out of the way.

Queer Customs in Japan.

Japanese ladies have been known
to do without stockings to maintain
the harmony between beautiful French
slippers and magnificent French even
ing dresses. I have been served by
a Japanese hosier who did without ev-
erything he didn't supply himself-he
had a shirt, a collar and a tie and
scarf pin and studs, but no trousers.
And the effect of their absence was
heightened by his wearing braces be
cause he sold them.
The Japanese do not kiss. If a
Japanese girl knows how to kiss it
shows the work of a foreign instructor;
she does it as an accomplishment not
as as an enjoyment, The Japanese
have no pens and ink, but they make
a very good shift with a painting
brush. The Japanese houses have
no chimneys and you are never warm
enough unless the house catches fire.
The Japanese have beef and no NUT
ton. Japanese bells, like Chinese
bellies, have nc tongues. Japanese
snakes have no poison; Japanese mu-
sic has no harmony. The Japanese
alphabet is not an alphabet but a Sc
lection of seventy useful kilograms to
dispense with the 10000 in ordinary
use blythe Chinese.

GRIM DEATHS HARVEST.
Daughter of Postmaster Griffith Pass
es Away Last Night.

Sadie Griffith Wacaser died at mid
night last night at the home of her
parents in this city, from9a form of
tuberculosis of the bowels. Mrs.
Wacaser was the third daughter of
our townsman, Hon. Theo. Griffith,
and grew to womanhood in our midst.
She was born July 3rd, 1875, in
Saline County Missouri, aud came to
Barton county with her parents in
1878. She was always a very robust
young woman, and was the picture
of health when she left here in Sep
tember 1902, to go to Las Animas,
Colo, for stay with an aunt. While
there she met H. NJ. Wacaser and
March 1, 1908 they were married,
and continued to reside in Colorado
until about three weeks ago, when
owing to her failing health they came
here in the hope of bettering her con-
dition. She has been sick since just
before Christmas. Her husband,
father, mother, two brothers, and five
sisters survive her. The funeral ser
vices will be held tomorrow at .2:30
at the Methodist church.
Mrs. Wacaser is the first of a fam
lily of eight children born to Mr.. and
Mrs. Griffith to pass away and while
the bereavement of the father, and
mother and brothers and sisters may
seem hard for them to bear, it must
be more SO for the young husband,
who SO early in life's journey is
robbed of his companion. Only one
short year of happy life, when the
messenger of death steps in and
separates the kind and. dutiful husband
from loving and confding helpmate.
Then also, the death of this young
wife comes as a shock to her many
friends in this city, to the boys and
girls who had been her companions
from childhood on, and to the older
people who had seen her grow from
mere child to blooming maidenhood,
and then into lovely womanhood.
But in her death we must recognize
the fact that what is our loss is the
gain of the hereafter, and that while
we may weep, and mourn her depart
ure, we must also remember that He
who rules the universe, doeth all
things for the best, and by placing
our confidence in Him, we shall in
the end be made to realize and under
stand His ways.

Spelling School.
city,.

The spelling school conducted by
the ladies of the Presbyterian church
at the Moses hall last evening, was
pretty we'll attended, and was some
thing out of the ordinary. Ora Daw-
son and Charlie Allison were desig-
mated as captains to choose sides,
and after they got all lined up that
they could, they retired, thus showing
that they were afraid to try their
hands. We have been told that
democrats can't read, and we think
now that that is so, for Nina Stoke
ran out of ms IN spelling word, and
got the BOBBY prize, while the junior
editor did not have ms enough, and
went down right after, on failing to
spell ammonia. That usually makes
fellow stand up, but not us. Robt.
Q. Albin, postal clerk who has been
here for short time, stood up to the
scratch the longest, and received the
first prize, a copy of Samantha and
Josiah at the Worlds Fair. The fl
nancial returns were good.
