Ell Petr6leO no es un substitute del
Aceite de Higado de Bacalao

Durante Ia presente escasez de
aceite de h1gado de bacalao, algunos
industria1es han hecho grandes es-
fuerzos para popularizar en- provecho
propio el uso de petr6leo 6 parafna
como subtancia a1imenticia.
Bastante rfdiculo es en- verdad, por
no califcarlo de otro modo, Ell asegu-
rar que el petroleo puede substituir al
aceite de h1gado de bacalao.
La gran reputation de que goza Ell
aceite de hfgado de bacalao es debido
a sus grandes propiedades nutritivas 6
alimenticias. En- verdad, el aceite de
hfgado de bacalao no solamente cs
I'm a1imento, Sino que es Ell mejor me
dicamento que Sc conoce en- Medicina
y atm no Sc ha podido encontrar en- La
naturaleza otro alimento igual, y
anunciar e1 petroleo como TIN substi-
tuto del aceite de hfgado de baca1ao,
es atribuir al petroleo 6 parafna pro-
piedades que no tiene. Ell petroleo
carece de Ia propiedad esencial de to-
do alinento, es decir, la de ser asimi-
liable. El petroleo 6 parafna no sola-
mente no eS una substantial asimilable,
sino que cuando Sc toma interiormente
es expe1ido en- su totalidad por las
evacuacioneS intestinales, causando in
digestion, irritacion del estomago y
de los intestinos, intermediates del
higado y del pancreas y con frecuen-
cia diarrea y disenterfa.
La presente escasez de aceitc h1gado
de bacalao es un case exceptional que
no durara mucho tempo, pero ha des-
mostrado va la gran demanda que
constantemente hay en- Ell mundo por
este producto alimenticio. Miles de
personas, j6venes y ancianos. usan
continaamente este aceite y su salud y
su vida depende de el.
Afortunadamente la mayor parte
del acejte de bacalao que Sc consume
en- e1 :nundo es adminiStrado bajo Ia
forma de Emulsion de Scott" prepa-
rada por los Sres. Scott & Bovine,
Qufmicos de Nueva York quienes
debido q sus muchos afios lie expe-
riencia en- la materia, vieron venir Ia
escasez con muchos meses de anticipa
cion & hicieron grandes acopios del
aceite, aunque para clio tuvieron que
pagar precios enormeS. ESQ no obs
tante, Ell precio corriente al detalle de
la Emulsion de Scott no ha sido alte-
RADIO y puede obtenerse en- las boticas
y droguerias al mismo precio de STEM
pre-.
El Petr6leo 6 Parafna puede ser
bueno para lubricar maquinas Il otros
usos industriales, pero la Emulsion de
lie SCOTT es la 1nica buena para e'

the shoulders, says London Men and
Women, the deceased premier cared lit
tie, but he never went the length Of Mr..
Gladstone, whose clothes were often 20
shabby that only an eminent, person
would wear them. Lord Ealisbury's
hats were enormous affairs, quite equal
ing Mr.. Gladstone's in size, and much
more respectable. Indeed. Mr.. Glad
stones headgear was generally In the
shocking bad hat" category. While in
attendance in the commons Mr.. Glad
stone dressed fairly well, but outside
the house he paid little attention to his
garments The successors In once Of
the great departed are, on the other
hand. careful dressers, especially Lord
Rosebery, who designed q collar for
himself with the turnover peaks round

seemingly does not endeavor to attain

TRAVELS OF A HALF DOLLAR.
In the Course Of Nineteen Years q

In August, 1884, George Sizer, one Of
the most popular young men eveI
raised in this community. was run over
by the chemical engine and received
injuries that proved fatal, says the
Harrodsburg (Ky.) Herald. Ten years
after his death letter addressed to
him at this place was turned over to
his mother, Mrs. Mary Sizer. II was
written by q gentleman In New York,
who stated that he had come in pos
session of half q dollar with the name
George Sizer. Harrodsburg, KY"
stamped on 1t, and II It was Of any
value to him to send so. cents and he
would return the coin with the name
on II.
Mrs. Sizer was quite Ill at the time
and the letter was never answered.
The coin IL still in circulation. for q
few days ago another letter came here
addressed to George sizer. II was dated
Nd, November ~, 1908.
and was written by Miss Irene Yorlts.
She stated that her company was filling
m engagement at theater in that city
and two nights before some admirers
Of her histrionic accomplishments had
tossed several coins on the stage, and
among them was q 5O-cent piece with
bis (Sizer's) name on It; that II he de-
tired she would send the coin.
This letter was also given to Mrs.
