TELLS BY
 THEIR SLEEP

q can tell by my little ones sleep when a cold is coming on" said a mother when speaking of the advance symptoms of colds in children. They toss about, are rest less, their breathing is heavy and there are symptoms of night sweats. The next morn ing l start with Seott's Emul- sion. The chances are that in a day or two they are all over it. Their rest is again peaceful and the breathing normal.'
 Here's a suggestion for all mothers. Scott's Emul- sion always has been almost magical in its action when used as the ounce of preven- tion. Nothing seems. to over- come child weakness quite so effectively and quickly as Scott's Emulsion.

The railroad scene Is especially good and a flower garden in the last act is a pleas ing stage picture. The company is an average melodrama organization. with a star who plays the leading role effective ly. The usual performance will be given tonight.
