That's whata prominent
druggist said of SCOTS
Emulsion a short time
ago. AS a rule we don't
use or refer to testimonials
in addressing the public,
but the above remark and
similar expressions are
made so often in connec-
ton with SCOTS En- ulsion
that they are worthy of
occasional note. From
infancy to old age SCOTS
Emulsion offers a reliable
means of remedying inn
proper and weuk develop
ment, restoring lost flesh
and vitality, and repairing
waste. The act i on of
SCOTS Emulsion is no
more. of a secret than the
composition of the Emul-
sion itself. What it does
it does through nourish-
ment-the kind of nourish-
ment that cannot be OBJ
tanned in ordinary food.
No system is too weak or
delicate to retain SCOTS
Emulsion and gather good
from it.

it is believed, advised Japan that it

SURPRISED r OUTCOME.

Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. 30.-The
long and bloody war between Japan
and Russia is ended. The terms of
peace were settled by NJ. Witte and
Earon Komura at the session of the
conference yesterday, and in the after
noon preliminary arrangements for
an arnlistice were concluded and the
actual work of framing the treaty
CT Portsmouth" was, by mutual agree
ment, turned over to Mr.. De Martens,
Russias great international lawyer,
and Mr.. Dennison, who. for 25 years,
has acted as legal adviser of the Jap
anese foreign Office.
The treaty is expected to be COM
pleted by the end of the week. This
happy conclusion of the conference,
which week ago would have been
shipwrecked had it not been for the
heroic efforts of President Roosevelt,
was sudden and dramatic. For the
sake of peace Japan, with the mag
nanimity of victor. at the last mo-
ment yielded everything still in issue.
Russia refused to bulge from the ul-
timatum Emperor Nicholas had given
to- President Roosevelt through Am
bassador Meyer No indemnity under
any guise. but an agreement to divide
Sakhalin and reimburse Japan for the
maintenance of the Russian prisoners
were his last words They had been
repeatedly reiterated in NJ. Wittes
instructions and in the form of writ
ten reply to the Japanese compromise
proposal of last Wednesday they were
delivered to Baron Komura yesterday
morning.
NJ Witte went to the conference de-
Claring he was powerless to change
the dot of an 'i.' or the crossing OF

Emperor Nicholas word had been
given, not only to him, but to Presi-
dent Roosevelt the head of foreign
state.
When Baron Komura, therefore,
first offered the new basis of compro-
mise outlined in the Associated Press
dispatches Monday night (the complete
renunciation of indemnity, coupled
with proposition for the redemption
of Sakhalin at price to be fixed by
mixed tribunal consisting of represen-
tatives of the neutral powers, in fact.

already. and as the state is tighten

necessity whatever for so strict quar-

quarantine is strict enough to afford
ample protection, and there can be no

city up and practically killing every
business interest in the city for an in

Nasty Nests of Infection.

The most important Development of
the yellow fever situation was the
report of DIR. G. Milo Brady. who had
been sent by the state board of health
on a tour of inspection of the bayous
and lakes in Jefferson parish, where
there are many settlements of fisher
men in constant communication with
New Orleans. DIR. Brady made the
trip with Dr. Stanley Of North Dako-
to in a launch owned by the latter
Without completing their investiga-
ton they turned up 35 cases of yellow
fever, learned that many deaths had
occurred and found much suffering.
The patients suffering with the dis
ease are principally Portuguese and
Spaniards, but there are many Ital-
ians, Cinnamon and Filipinos living in
the section to which the fever may
spread, if it has not taken hold of them
already. The doctors found that in
every instance the disease was trace
able to the French market section of
New Orleans. The sick were without
medical attendance, without nurses,
and in most cases without medicines,
the appearance of the fever forcing
many of them to abandon their trips

SOFT CHEESES.
Dairy Experts Tell of n Growing
Market For Them.

Dairy Experts Tell of Growing
Market For Them.
An Indication of the growing popu,
larity of soft cheeses is the large de
mand for the varieties sold under vari-
Gus brands as Neufchatel and cream
cheese. The basis for most of these
is the common cottage" or Dutch
cheese, and many of them are merely
sweet or sour curd put in an attractive
and appetizing form. The manufacture
of these varieties is comparatively sim
pie, with practically no danger of loss.
They are sold and eaten when fresh.
Further, they will yield a larger
amount of salable cheese from the
same quantity of milk than other vari-
cites, and they bring prices almost as
high as the best imported cheese.
Very naturally these cheeses form
the basis of profitable industry. But
here, too, we find that the common
American product is different from the
cheese in Europe going under the same
name. The Neufchatel cheese of Eu-
rope is ripened cheese, but the cheese
going by this name in the United
States is usually unripened curd with
an attractive wrapping Some of these
American products, however are high
ly favored and compete favorably with
certain ripened types that are import
ed. All Of them command a far higher
price than the ordinary hard cheese
High Profit In Soft Cheese.
1t is certain, therefore, that there is
an established and rapidly growing
market for the best types Of soft
cheese. The profit in the manufacture
Of the hard types Of cheese is exceed
ingly small both to the factory and to
the producer Of milk, but the prices of
the highest class Of soft cheese (4O
cents or more per pound) are so much
higher than the prices of the hard
cheeses that the introduction of their
manufacture should be a great benefit
to the dairymen.
The fact that soft cheese will not
keep very long gives an especial adj
vantage to the domestic over the for
eign producers if the products can be
made OF equal merit. For such perish
able products there is a great advan-
tage in an intimate relation between
the maker and the consumer.
Factories near enough to a large city
to supply the demand with cheese al
ways ripened to exactly the prime con-
dition should easily be able to control
their home market If they can once
control their product. 1t seems posi-
bic that there will be an advantage
nearer the small cities, at least, in their
production by individual dairymen
who could dispose of their own product
in a reSfr'ot@' }s'}rket.

Capture Live Bear.

Medford Star 81 News: Report
comes from railway camp about II
miles south of Ladysmith that a big
black bear has been captured by the
men at one of the camps there
This bear had been coming to the
camps pretty regularly IN the night
for a long time. Later he decided
to come in the day time when he
would carry away anything that
might be in sight. The men con-
ceived the idea of an attempt at
capture and built a crib with self
closing door. This scheme worked
like charm and the bear was made
a prisoner. Mr.. Bruin however
didn't like the idea and proceeded to
gnaw his way out, which he was
not long in doing. But when he had
made his way through the hole his
teeth had made, the bear was sur
prised to find himself still imprison-
ed in cell Of logs that in the mean
time had been built around the first
structure. The building was TOO
much for the bear and the game was
up.
The captors sent to Milwaukee for
an iron cage and men to come after
the animal to be given to a museum
there,f 1t is reported that the cap.
tured bear is one of the largest ever
seen in northern Wisconsin, weigh
ing over 400 pounds.
