SCOTS
Emulsion

When you go to drug store
and ask for SCOTS Emulsion
you know what you want; the
man knows you ought to have
it. Don't be surprised, though,
if you are offered something
else. Wines, cordiaIs, extracts,
etc., Of cod liver oil are pIenti-
full but don't imagine you are
getting cod liver oil when you
take them. Every year for thirty
years we've been increasing
the sales of SCOTS Emulsion.
Why? Because 1t has always
been better than any substitute
for it.

nobing ideal of political parties of each
country, and expressed his desire for
promotion of justice, not only among
individuals but also among nations.
'In the presence of the Emperor, the
mayor and members of the Tokyo city,
he gave lessons that the officers of the
city must be responsible, temperate and
faithful to the practice of justice.
"He didn't take any drink but water
when he met with Admiral Togo, even
when he proposed toast to His Majesty
How respectful that he is man of
principle"
One cannot help contrasting this
story with some others that have been
told us regarding other distinguished
Americans in their contact with the
Japanese. 1t is perfectly plain that
these alleged pagans notice such things.
Mr.. Bryan's total abstinence principles
have been published all over Japan.
AS typical American his example has
been wholly in favor of rigid stand
on morality. We are prepared, then,
to find this japanese editor taking up
the third point, namely, that Mr.. Bryan
is a "devout Christian" This he does
as follows:
"3. That he is Christian who does
not take it shame to be a Christian,
or to preach the gospel
His faith in Christ is the founda-
ton of everything. Opinion of bust
ness and education comes from this
spring. He failed in the candidacy for
presidency, but this is not failure of his
faith and character, but only the re-
suit of difference of his noble and pro-
found political opinion. Some minister
said that he has no moral defect in
public or private life.
"His quiet conduct, his daily life at
Lincoln, his home place, and his severe
social activity, are good examples.
These are lessons he learned from
Christ
Thank Heaven that we have at least
some Americans who can go abroad
without thinking it necessary to .Swill
beer or drench themselves with wine
and whisky before the natives of the

proach upon Western civilization

We wish to say beforehand that we
make the following quotation in no
spirit of political praise The Issue
editor is a Republican. Politically, we
have never had but very little in COM
mon with Mr.. Bryan, but for a long
time we have admired the moral tone
of his paper, The Commoner, and the
religious and upright character of the
man so far as we could judge of it.
1t is in this spirit alone that we quote
from the Japanese paper.
Impression Made by Mr.. Bryan
The following editorial appeared in
"Shinjin,' Toxic newspaper, and was
translated into English by Mr. j. In
gaki, official interpreter to Governor
Ohomori of Kyoto:
1--WE have recently been busy receiv-
ing distinguished foreign guests who
have visited our country.
"Mr. Taft, United States secretary of
war, Miss Alice Roosevelt, and men,
bers of the United States Senate and
Congress visited us first. Then DR..
Bovine, professor of Boston Univer-
sity, was interested in our educational
and religious lines. Mr. Hartman,
American millionaire and proprietor of
a steamship company, was one of our
distinguished guests. The next, Ad-
miral Noel, commander-in-chief of the
British China squadron, commanding
some battleships, anchored off Tokyo
bay These distinguished guests were
received properly by us. At the same
time they no doubt left some good in
fluences upon our social and spiritual
life.
but no one equals Mr. Bryan, who
left more instructive lessons during his
one weeks stay in the capital. He is
a great man, whom we have revered
for long time as leader of the Dem
ocratic party of the United States, as
a great orator and candidate for the
presidency of the country. Having an
interview with him, and having OBJ
served his conduct and listened to his
speeches, our reverence toward him in
creased more and more"
This Japanese editorial goes on to
speak in the first place about Mr..
Bryan's style of public address After
having discussed this matter quite con-
siderably, it says:
20. He is a man of principle. He
insisted upon the Importance of an en-
