Ask your doctor if when
he orders a patient to drink
lots of pure milk he advises
the addition of large
quantity of whiskey. He'll
tell you mo" very emphati-
cally. Yet there are people
who, when ordered TO get
SCOTS Emulsion, will accept
some wine, cordial or extract
JlOf cod liver oil and think it is
he same thing or better. If
you want and need cod liver
oil in its best, purest and
most easily digeSted form, get
SCOTS Emulsion. If you
want whiskey, that's another
matter, but don't look for the
same results.

Washington, May 3.-China is asserting

of this falls upon the United States. Part

Tricks of the Types.

A friend met Whitelaw Reid, the
veteran editor of the New York Trib-

There was now much tension, and

a accordion protested and the fiddle
wept. The cornet uttered faint note
of woe. Yet once more there was a
i use in this time OF joy.
Again the door was pushed open. not
tinidly, but flung boldly back. There
stood two figures at the head of the
hall and in the place of greatest light.
OF these, one was tall and very thin,
but upright as a shaft of pine. He
was clad in dark garments; thus much
might be said. His waistcoat sat high
and close AT wrist and neck there
showed a touch of white. and bit of
white appeared protruding at the
bosom of his coat. His tread was
sup~se and easy as that of boy of

of the compliment. Dressed in the full

Planting Crops on prv so;ls

When a man tries to work a dry
soil and one that will remain drv
throughout the season he must modify
his operations to suit the case. 1t is
not best for him to use upon such soil
crop that has to be sown broadcast
for the reason that it would be then
impossible for any cultivation IN he
done to preserve moisture. He must
drill his crops, placing the drills at
sufficient distance apart to permit him
to cultivate between the rows during
the dryest part of summer. and TINS
prevent the loss of all moisture ex.
cept through the leaves of the plants
Dry soil farming is therefore a science
by itself. Its methods can never be
nose applicable to the humid states.
The success Of farmer on a drv soil
depends on his ability to study his
own questions and to analyze his own
situations.
