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 a low
ebb SCOTS Emulsion will
build it up quickly and per-
manently.

Hurry

Worry

Hurry, like a cyclone, whirls
you along at a rate that
quickly exhausts your energy,
and leaves you a nerveless,
wretched, broken-down phys
ical wreck.
Worry accomplishes the
same results in another way.
1t drags you through the dark,
gloomy tunnel of forbodings,
wrecks your nerves and breaks
down the constitution.
Then don't hurry; don't
worry. But you will; and
your nerveless, exhausted con-
dition brings headaches, neu-

and kidney troubles. The thing

Boston, Feb. 2s.--A case similar to
that OF Susanna Geary, the suit case VIC
tim, has come to light in the death at
the city hospital relief station Of Annie
Russell, a pretty young Charlestown
stenoerapher. Death resulted from a
criminal operation, but the girl refused
TO tell who was responsible for her con
dition. Every effort has been made by
the Boston police since the suit case mys-
terry was solved to drive Illicit pfacti-
.ioners from the city. Raids have been
made frequently. and many hospitals
have been closed up.
IN the present case the police have no
che to the physician who performed the
operation. Public sentiment is thor
ouzhy aroused over the Susan Gesry

to that feeling The girls father and
