Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty Of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive SO and 100
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.
Scott's sEmulsionisthemod
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork istoc
rough for sensitive stonachs.
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 oiland hypophos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special

A FAKE RrFoRMpp's HOBBY HORSE.


Everybody is aware Of tho stren-
uosity and reverberating vocifer-
business Of the President as civil
service reformer. 1t has been his
hobby which he has ridden for years
with all the delight which he evin-
ces whea busting a broncho. He
protests in season and out of sea-
son that he will allow no infringe
lnent of the law governing the
civil service, and will hold every
man to strict observance of the
same. Let us see il all these pro-
tests and vociferation are sincere,
or only a bluff to fool the people.
Not long ago the President sent
Civil Service Commissioner Alfred
w. Cooley over to Philadelphia to
investigate as to the doings OF
Postmaster McMichasl Of that city,
who had been reported rs using
his Office and his power as Post
master for purely political and
partisan purposes, and in other
ways violating the civil service
law. Mr.. Cooley went and made
out bis report to the President, and
in that report he declared that the
Philadelphia postmaster was guilty
of all the offenses charged against
him, and recommended his dis
missal for a good sufficient cause.
AS soon, however, as Mat Quay tho
Pennsylvania republican boss, got
wind of the matter, he went to the
White House and read the riot act
to the. President to the effect that
he did not intend to have one Of
his chief henchmen and tom tom
bsaters in Pennsylvania disturbed
in his fat office. He had placed
him, he intimated, in the position
he occupied for the very purpose
of having him do the things he is
charged with having done 10 fla-
grant violation Of the civil service
laws Of the country, and hs init
mated, also, that the President
would better be careful how he
disturbed his pets. What was the
RESULT
The President hastened to send
for Civil Service Commissioner
Cooley, and practically taking him
by the throat, demanded Of him
that he straightway write another
report of the findings against the
Philadelphia postmaster, in which
he would find nothing to his detri-
ment, and in which there would be
no recommendation of dismissal.
The second report has been writ
ten and the Philadelphia post
master, who has been guilty of the
NEST fragrant violation Of the civil
service law, will not be disturbed
10 his fat job. And this, at the
behest of the Chief Executive of
the nation, who has sworn to exe-
cute the laws; this, at the hauds
of the chief fugleman Of civil SER
vice reform in all the country.
Disregard Of bis oath of Office, hy-
pocrisy and fawning is all born of
fear. The man who has caused il
carries in the hollow OF his hand
the republican delegation to the
next republican, national conven-
ton, and Roosevelt wants that del
egation. How do the people like
