Feed pale girls on SCOTS
Emulsion.
We do not need to give all
the reasons why SCOTS
Emulsion restores the strength
and flesh and color of good
health to those who suffer
from sick blood.
The fact that it is the best
preparation of Cod Liver Oil,
rich in nutrition, full Of healthy
stimulation is a suggestion as
to why it does what it does.
SCOTS Emulsion presents
Cod Liver Oil at its best,
fullest in strength, least in

Young women in their

The Texas Stock Journal says that
an Iowa farmer had a COW killed by
train on a railroad. He presented
his claims to the company in note
in which he said, "Thirty dollars
will be considered sufficient, as the
animal killed was but common COW
and by no means the best OF my
herd" The claim agent Of the
road answered the letter promptly
and enclosed a check for s1oo. He
wrete the farmer, 'It is the first in
stance since my connection with the
road that any other than a full
blooded animal Of great value has
been killed by our trains, and I en-
close 500 as damages and reward
for your honesty, and / would hum
bly, ask for your photograph to be
framed and placed in my Office"

CONGRATULATIONS.

MIR John II. Cullom, editor OF the
Garland. Texas, News, has written a
letter of congratulations to the manu-
facturers of Chamberlain's Cough Rem.
edy AS follows: Sixteen years ago
when our first child was baby he
was subject TO croupy spells and we
would be very uneasy about him. We
began using Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy in 1887. and finding 1t such a
reliable remedy for colds and Group
we have never been without it in the
house since that time. We have five
children and have given 1t 10 all oil
them with good results. One good
feature of this remedy is that 1t is not
disagreeable to take and our babies
really like IL. Another is that IL is
not dangerous. | congratulate you
upon the success of your remedy"
