Animals and Rain.

''The popular belief that storms are
more frequent about the time OF the
equinox. or when the sun crosses the
line in March and September, re-
ceives some slight degree of support
from the Investigations OF European
scientists" states an expert of the
weather bureau. "In southwestern
Europe March is the stormiest month
while in the British islands and Nor
way January takes the lead In that
respect; but considering Europe as a
whole, it appears that storms prepon.

"When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
