That the democrats intend to make
an effort to carry the Sixth district
this year, as we'll as the Second, is
shown by the first congressional state
ment and estimate issued by the New
York Herald. In 1.-two Iowa districts
are put in the doubtful column, the
Second and the Sixth. The summary

cause there are twenty districts which
are republican by less than 1000 ma.

When the butter wont

churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems T.
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-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is son ething
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
