A CASE OF PRONOUNS

TOMMY MULLIGAN of the Seventh
Grade was absent from the classroom
for one entire day. 1t would appear that he
had played truant, for unknown to Tommy
his teacher had spied him trudging home
ward with pockets bullying suspiciously
when she too homeward bound that
afternoon.
But Tommy brought note of excuse the
next morning, which of course would prove
that he had been detained at home legit-
mately The writing was hardly that of
feminine hand, and the note appeared to have
been written laboriously and with much
blotting furthermore, the penmanship
seemed strangely familiar to his teacher.
The note read as follows:
Dear teacher-Please excus Tony for
not comeing to shool yestiddy. he cudnot
come. tore my pants. Mrs MULLIGAN."

CAMPAIGNING IN THE SOUTH

CENATOR T!LLMAN says that the live
- hest campaign he ever knew was that
for the governorship Of North Carolina when
the late Senator Vance was pitted against
jude Settle.
The candidates stumped the State in Joint
debate MI the white Democrats turned out
to hear Vance and all the colored Republicans
were on hand TO listen to Settle.
1t appears that on one occasion Vance was
advised that certain young women of the
State desired to testify their devotion TO the
Democratic party by kissing its candidate
for the governorship Not unwilllngly. Vance
descended from the platform and kissed
dozen or 50 of the young beauties; then,
pausing in his pleasant occupation, he turned
to his competitor and exclaimed
Settle I'm kissing my girls; now you
kiss yours" 81
Howell: "Rowell is a queer fellow"
Powell: YES he thinks that if he wears

When the butter won't

proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-

1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphltes
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally

EVIL OF SUBSCRIBERS.
London Physician Traces Connection
Between Tall Buildings and
Physical Degeneracy.

Do tall buildings cause small heads.
and do small heads mean short lives?
Dr. Warner. who has examined 100 900
London children. traces the connection
between physical degeneracy and high
buildings.
"One OF the signs OF physical de.
terioration." said DR.. Warner, SIS
that heads are growing smaller. es-
pecially In the case of females. This
form Of degeneracy is nearly connected
with the erection of high buildings.
When we come to look at the condition
OF children in districts where resi-
dences are of great height and size we
find larger proportion of small heads.
Il do not offer any explanation Of
the facts" added Dr. Warner, "but II
we find that as fact these great dwell
lngs which are being erected every
where are the cause of physical deteri-
Grafton, what millions of money will
have to be spent in years to come in
pulling them down again!
Want of air and light may perhaps
be the connection between high build
ings and the corresponding deteriora-
ton. Small headed children are not
confined to the poorer classes On the
contrary, it is quite as marked among
children of wealthy people. They are
all bound to die sooner than they nor
mally should" he added. They are
not necessarily unintelligent, but they
have not the necessary strength for
long life"

DOG NURSING PROFITABLE.
English Women Find That Caring for
Ailing CANNES Pays Better
Than Typewriting.

The Dogs Protective league, of Lon
don, has opened new field for English
women. The professions they have
overstocked. Now the members of the
gentler sex who are compelled to TAX,
employment may be provided for in the
hospital of the league as nurses for
sick CANNES. Dog nursing, 1t is said
is growing popular. It pays better
than typewritihg.
A visitor to the kennels of the league
describes the scenes there as closely re-
sembling those in any of the large hos
pitfalls for human beings. Fair femt-
nine nurses attend to the every want of
the ailing dogs. which are encased IA
swaddling clothes on couches. When
convalescent the dogs have the run Of
their ward.
Thousands Of dogs have been re-
ceiyed Into tho hospital since 1t was
opened. Two veterinary surgeons su.
perintend the institution. which has a
staff of trained nurses. A woman ap-
plying as dog nurse is taken on pro.
baton. and ultimately graduates. Then
she goes out to attend dogs at their
own homes. She is taught how to pre-
scribe for sick dog. how to physic,
diet and clothe 1t.
