Woman Burned to Death.

Miss Mary P. Dodge, aged 43, was
burned to death at an early hour the
morning of Dec. 18th, in fire that con-
sumed the home of Mrs. Joel Dodge, her
mother, with whom she had lived for
many years.
1t was small house up Worcester
branch, about four miles from Mont
pelier At about two o'clock the mother
who is so years old was awakened by a
bright light in her room, which was di.
rectly under that occupied by her
daughter. At the same time she dis
covered that the ceiling of her own bed
room was on fire. Throwing scant
clothing over her she ran to the home
of Charles Andrews, several rods away
with the temperature below zero. By
the time help arrived the whole house
was mass of flames and it was impos

The matter of feed is Of
tremendous Importance to the
farmer. Wrong feeding is
loss. Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-date farmer knows
what to feed his COWS to get
the most milk, his pigs to get
the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children !?
Are they fed according to
science, a bone food if bones
are soft and undeveloped, a
flesh and muscle food if they
are thin and weak and a blood
food if there is anemia?
SCOTS Emulsion is a mixed
food; the Cod Liver Oil in it
makes flesh, blood and muscle,
the Lime and Soda make bone
and brain. 1t is the standard
scientific food for delicate
children.
