For Thin
Babies

Fat is of great account
to a baby: that IS why
babies are fat If your
baby is scrawny. SCOTS
Emulsion is what he
wants. The healthy baby
stores as fat what it does
not need Immediately for
bone and m uscle. Fat
babies are happy they do
not CRY; they are rich /;
their fat IS laid up for
time of need, They are
happy because they are
comfortable. The fat sur
rounds their little nerves
and cushions them. When
they are scrawny those
nerves are hurt at every
ungentle touch, They
delight in SCOTS Emul-
sion. II is as sweet as
wholesome TO them,

No steaming soup, nor heavy roast,

Then when the day at last was spent
Her mind Las filled with sweet con

She donned a dainty gown of white
With rosy ribbons all bedight,
And looked as fair as any rose.

POETRY
BOHEMIA.


Bohemia, Bohemia, your realm is far
away,
But still your faithful vassels are turn
ing night to day.
All, for the old year revels when oft
drained a stein
And listened to your choruses, sweet
motherland of mine!
Bohemia, Bohemia, your children oft
will stray
In paths more circumspect than yours
to sorrow and dismay;
But let them wander far and oft and
taste Lies joys at will
When every cup is drained at last
their hearts are with you stin.
l wandered as the rest have donc--the
many gone before
And cast my hearts allegiance before
a maidens door;
And in the years agone and dead, M
sole regret is this
l bartered you, Bohemia, for a pulse
less maiden's kiss
Henry Kendrick Schofeld.
