j. A. Coppinger returned from Chi
cago last night whore he was unfor-
tunate to be found during the ter
rible storm that visited the great
lakes section couple of weeks ago.
Mr.. Coppinger states the press re-
ports in no way exaggerated the ca
lamity it wrought. He is familiar
with the hard storms that sweep thru
the Kansas and Missouri section but
in comparison these are mere zeph-
ers. The wave came up from Lake
Michigan and swept 200 acres of
Lincoln park away. The famous drive
way in the park is now half mile
out in the waters of the lake. AL
though on business mission of great
Importance Mr.. Coppinger was tempt

city and head Colorado way, where
such terrific storms never have been

If there is anything in the world that should
be made of the choicest ingredients and with
the utmost scientific skill, it is our medicinal
preparations which can be instrumental for
health and happiness or detrimental and injur-
ious, and it is a deplorable fact that people are
sometimes persuaded to accept substitute for
Scotts Emulsion when those recommending
such substitutes know the difference, but for
their mercenary profit disregard or ignore the
consequences of their act,
The popularity of the curative benefits of
Scotts Emulsion has inspired many limitations,
most OF which contain alcohol, wines or opiates
to please the palate and stimulate the spirits,
but ply scians everywhere insist on the purity
and wholesomeness of Scott's Emulsion, know
ing that it contains only pure wholesome cod
liver oil, made palatable and predigested by
tories

at home.
