4 DIFFERENCE
IN LUNGS.

In the Edinburgh Uni
versity three human lungs lie
side by side. One is of an
Eskimo and is snow white.
In life, this would be ruddy
with rich blood. Another is
that of a coal-miner and is
black. The other is of a town
dweller and is a dirty slate
gray, as are the lungs of most
city residents. That's why
consumption thrives in cities.
One reason why SCOTS
Emulsion does so much to
keep down consumption is
because it helps to keep the
lungs clean and supplies
them with rich, red blood. 1t
makes the lungs germ-re-
sisting. If the body is run
down and health is at a low
sebb SCOTS Emulsion will
build it up quickly and per-
lmanently.

The Pennsylvania railroad, it is
well understood, has on all occasions,
obeyed the law. The Pennsylvania
has always refused to join the an
thracite coal organizations and in the
last years of that organization refus-
ed to be represented at meetings.
Finally all the coal roads adopted the
Pennsylvania IS course and there has
been no tangible anthracite coal COM
bination for ten years. 1t was the

willingly the interstate commerce
bill and Mr.. Cassatt, it is we'll known
admitted very early in the last stage
Of corporate agitation that some reg
ulated provisions by the government
over railroads were necessary and
that railroads should assist in the re-
form, and for a long time it stood
alone. The Pennsylvania was never
thoroughly identified with the old
trunk line pool and it abandoned all
its pooling connections at once when
the law forbade. Now it has boldly
taken the reform step of abolishing
railway passes which seems to have
brought upon it the legislative and
anti-corporation fire Of the national
and state capitols, but it moves on
seemingly unchecked in its determi-
nation to test the law as it now
stands.-Ft. Wayne News.
