Keen Your Lungs Strong

This advice is doubly important with
the knowledge that every three minutes
some one in the United States succunbs
to consumption and many refuse to
realize they are afflicted until tits too late.
It is after colds or sickness, from over
work, combining duties or when general
weakness exists that tubercular germs
thrive because the resistive powers OF
the body are weakened.
Only with fresh air, sunshine and
abundant rich blood can one hope to
arrest their progress, and the concen-
trated fats in Scott's Emulsion furnish
fuel for rich blood, and its rare nouTish-
ment helps strengthen the lungs while
it builds up the forces.
If you work indoors, tire easily, feel
lancuid or rundown SCOTS Emulsion Is
the most strengthening food-rriediciue
known and is free from alcohol or stupe-
fyins drugs. Avoid substitutes.

New York today faced veritable
wave Of crime on the first swell OF
which in the space of few weeks,
have come four bomb outragas, one
street assassination that smacks OF a
Rosenthal murder and a barrel muir

one followed several days later when
the bomb, the fuse spluttering danger
ously near the explosive, was discover
ed near judges bench in city court
in time to prevent damage and pos
sible death to several persons.
While the police still were without
ia clue to these outrages, two men
dropped barrel on curb in Long
Island City. It contained the still
warm body of man who had been
shot through the heart. Then came
the wrecking of the first floor Of a
tenement in Cherry street. Investiga-
ton by the police uncovered the fact
that the place had been occupied by
a Sicilian CLUB" In one of the
rooms was found enough explosives to
have blown the six story tenement to
bits. Two injured men and third
who was aiding them, were arrested
In one of the wrecked rooms.

the Cherry street bomb plant, Barnet
Baff. whose fight against the poultry
trust resulted in the conviction and
the sentencing to jail Of thirteen OF
it's members, was lured from his office
and shot to death in crowded street.
His two murderers escaped in an auto
mobile.
The last bomb explosion occurred
late yesterday. A man who said his
name is Tony Lollo, was carrying a
bundle along East Hath street. Sud
denly the bundle exploded, ripping
away two of Lollo's fingers. 1t was a
dynamite bomb. The police are GER
tain he can be connected in some way
with New York's bomb planters.
Excepting the three men arrested at
the scene Of the Cherry street outrage
and Lollo, the police today were as

Evening Post.
NEW YORK, Nov. 27.-Most OF the
interesting developments of the day
had to do with the careful prepare
lions to resume bond trading on the
stock exchange tomorrow. This be-
ing much the most important move
made by the exchange since the war
began, interest naturally centered in
the provisions for preventing heavy
selling by Europe and the limitations
placed upon the dealings between
buyers and sellers in this country.
The quotations will be sent over the
ticker as usual.
There were signs that investors
would give out some large buying or
ders and that the extent of these
purchases would be quite surprising
to those who have locked only for
liquidation to follow the resumption
of exchange business even on re-
stricted scale.
