Salt pork is a famous old.
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 1oc
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
SCOTS Emulsionisthemod
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, bur
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophoe-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new. life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs

 'Riease be serious" interrupted Miss Kent.
 ''Then kindly remember that the age of Ann is that of discretion. Can't have bit of a secret all my own? All I ask of you is to wear these tomorrow" and she handed a bunch of white violets to Salome, who grew pale as she took them. but controlled herself enough to say: "
 They are very sweet; and it was lovely in you to think of my favorite flowers. but we need so many thIngs-the rent and coal,"' she sighed putting the violets In a little vase on the table.
 Their perfume seemed like a gentle presence that took her by the hand and led her back to the happy, beautiful past. If only she had not trihed with that which might have made her life supremeIy blest!
 In the morning Ann brought the violets to her as she was dressing for church.

 As Miss Kent worked. she fell into a brown
 study, and there was hot rush of blood to
 her checks. She had not thought that there
 was a possibility of Gurnsey's-who was either abroad or in distant city--seeing tho cards. Now perhaps his cousin would send him one; and perhaps she would ask at Nor gan's who painted them and tell him, and he would glory In her humiliation especially if perverse fate should lead Mrs. Carson to se- lect the very one of all others she would not wish him to zee.

 There are people who can give cozy, home-like look to the most barren apartment. Ann Kent was one of them.
