Discovered.

After the little girl had seriously
studied the matter for long time, she
looked up to- inquire of her maiden
aunt:
'Is it true that women shouldn't
marry men who are younger than
themselves?"
Eyes, dear. A woman should always
be careful 70 marry only a man who is
older than she"
ooh, now know why you've never
got married. You can't find man who
is older, can you?"-Chicago Record

A DUTY TO BE HEALTHY.
The Care of the Body Should Never
Be Neglected If One Would Lead
Energetic Life.

All education is physical, for all
knowledge comes to us through phys
ical means Every act Of reasoning
and judgment becomes a physical fact
and that our mental AID moral being
is affected by our physical has long
since been proved beyond all doubt.
Wickedness is indeed closely akin to
weakness, for soundness of morals and
mind are more easily maintained in o
sound body.
Since ignorance of the laws of phys
iology and hygiene may readily result
in disease or deformity, and since
temptations are far more difficult to
withstand when the body is worn with
sickness than when in the full posses
sion of splendid health, we are all
forced to admit that the results OF
physiological ignorance may be grave
indeed.
It was Socrates, the Greek philoso
pher, who actually reproved one OF his
young friends for being in a poor con
dition physically-telling him rather
sharply that the care of the body was
not to be neglected in private life and
that it was a mans duty to pay at
tention to his physical welfare.
He assured him that neither In any
struggle nor in any kind of practical
life would he get on worse because ne
had brought his body into good condi
ton, "for the body is useful in all pur'
suits which men engage in" adding
land even in those things in which
you may think the body less useful,
namely in intellectual pursuits, who
does not know that, even in these
many men fall into great alterations
through not possessing good bodily

SAVED MY LIFE"

That's what a prominent
druggist said of SCOTS
Emulsion a sh ort time
ago. AS a rule we don t
use or refer to testimonials
in addressing the public,
but the above remark and
similar expressions are
made so often in COnnec-
ton with SCOTS Emulsion
that they are worthy of
occasional note. From
infancy to old age SCOTS
Emulsion offers a reliable
means of remedying inn
proper and weak develop
ment, restoring lost flesh
and vitality, and repairing
waste. The acti ion of
SCOTS Emulsion is no
more of a secret than the
composition of the Emul-
sion itself. What it does
it does through nouriSh-
ment-the kind of nourish-
ment that cannot be OBJ
tanned in ordinary food.
No system is too weak or
delicate to retain SCOTS
Emulsion and gather good
from it.
