A 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 low
ebb SCOTS Emulsion will
build it up quickly and per-
manertly.

A NEEDED LAW.

Along with pure food laws belongs
legislation against the freezer" where
poultry, game and fish is dumped with
out cleaning and held for months at
a time. Massachusetts and New York
will make an effort this winter to
legislate against cold storage of food
animals of all kinds that have not been
dressed. There is in those states a
tary system than prevails at present.
Cold storage has it's immense advan-
tages 1t has also its disadvantages.
The practice of piling undressed poul-
try, game and fish into freezer"
to be held for higher prices is charged
with responsibility for much sickness
and ptomainic poisoning. AT any
rate it is sufficiently foul and disgust
ing to demand laws to prevent it, But
cold does not entirely | arrest the
changes in the body of a dead animal.

Let the law that provides against
adulteration of food provide also the
period wherein fowls and fish intended
for the market may be kept in cold
storage. 1t should also require that
none of these be placed i'll the freezer
before they are properly cleaned and
the offal removed. And while making
law for '.freezers' il would be a long
step toward the preservation and pro-
lection of our game birds if the game

ABOLISH THE C. 0. D. BooTLEGGeRs.

Representative Bailey of Rnggold
county, will present to the legislature
a bill drawn by A. L. Smith. Mr.. Hep
burns rival in the Eighth congress
sional district, providing for taxation
of the c. o. ID. whisky peddlers that
overrun the state, taking orders for
their noNious mixtures. The object of
the bill is, not to afford protection for
this class of solicitors. but to tax them
out of business, and it is made obliga-
tory that any clerk. employee or owner

eating liquors except from those now

of each county where he does business

law shall be fined not less than $500
nor more than $500 or be imprisoned
in the county Jail not less than three
months nor more than one year. Each
order shall constitute separate Of
fence and the offender is subject to
both fine and Imprisonment.
This bill, if made into law. should do
the business. Iowa has long been
scandalized and offended by the horde
of irresponsible whiskey peddlers let
loose to vend their poisonous concoc-
tons under the wing of the interstate
commerce law. The decent sentiment
in the state frets under the imposition.
The protected whisky peddler has long
been an abomination in Iowa. He
searches every lane and crossroad.
Everything is fish that comes to his
net. He is without responsibility. He
is generally disreputable to a greater
or lesser degree. Decent men and
women whatever their sentiments and
belief on the liquor question may be,
will welcome any law to rid the state
of him and his lk. The c. o. d. sys-
TEN of whiskey peddling is simply per-
mission by the national government to
go bootlegging in Iowa.

The legal position of Queen AleNan-
dra is very surious. SO far as her pri-
vate business is concerned she is not
regarded by the laws and customs of
England as married woman. The
idea of the law is that affairs of state
consume all the time of the king and
therefore no responsibility for the
queens private business rests upon
him. If the queen contracted debts in
her husbands name he would not be
for them, as any other hus-
band would. The king can not be sued
for debt, but the queen can be.
