A PERFECT FOOD.

That SCOTS Emulsion
should act so quickly and
satisfactorily in all cases
of lost flesh and continued
wasting is not surprising
when its food value is I'M
derstood. With pure Nor
wegian cod liver oil, hypo-
phosphites of lime and
soda and glycerine, there
is combined in SCOTS
Emulsion the best ele-
ments of nOurishment and
strength building known
to medical science. Any
physician will tell you this.
The use Of these ingredi-
ents in the proper proper
tons; the employment Of
only the purest grade of
each, and to combine them
perfectly is the secret of
the success of SCOTS
Emulsion. You will not
ind a more certain way to
stop waste, build flesh and
strength and supply nour-
lshment than through
SCOTS Emulsion.

NeMsnaner. in the Schools

The ovement to make the reading
of newspapers part of the regualr
studies in the public schools of Gin
cinnati is strongly indorsed by Super
intendent Dyer of that city. In
speaking on the subject he said, how
ever. that wise selection would have
to be made, and in this as well as in
his general advocacy of the scheme
he Is right. There are newspapers
and and newspapers, and i'll the best
of the new papers there are subjects
which it may not be desirable to in
troduce in the schools.
DIR. Dyer Goes not share in the
wholesale criticism that is INDUCED
in by some persons becuse newspapers
print accounts of murders, prize
fights. divorce cases and such things.
He recognizes that newspaper is a
commercial enterprise and as such,
to large extent, must furnish its
customers with what they want. But
he thinks it might be possible to write
up the account of prize fight in such
a fashion that while retaining an en-
tertain style, it would be free of seh-
sationalsm. This would probably be
more difficult matter than he anti
cipates. The descriptive style which
those most interested in boxing con-
tests want to see would scarcely be
ppropriate for public school lesson,
though there is nothing really offen-
sive in its wording.
But these features constitute very
small part of the daily newspaper, and
the really important news will materi-
ally help in promoting the general ed
ucation, of the pupils. There is no
better modern history than the daily
paper. Spokesman Repview.

already vacated it and bought 20
acres and built house in West Crap
per. where he now lives. Some one

Even some of the experts are admit
ting that 80 can grow finer apple
on the foot hills than they can on the
lower levels, not excepting the East

ley, as some do, for the whole valley
grows good apples.
Tne school board met last evening
and decided to hire an assistant
teacher for the vi ter and say we will
have to build another room to the
school house next summer How does
this look to thet contracted Hood
River land agent who is advising
strangers not to buy in this locality,
that he hates to see any one throw
his money away that We can't raise
apples here Nill say for his benefit
that | will act as free land agent for
strangers wishing to zee this part OF
the yalley, will serve them we'll with
out fees or graft, and can show them
as good fruit land as there is in the
vtliey. j. j. JORDAN.
