A MISTAKEN IDEA

There are some people who still resort
to drugged pills or alcoholic syrups to
overcome colds, nervousness or general
debility, and who know that the pure,
unadulterated nourishment in Scott s
Emulsion is eninently better, but refrain
from taking it because they fear it may
lead to excessive fat or obesity
This is mistaken idea, because Scott 8
Emulsion first strengthens the body before
making flesh. It's blood forming proper
ties aid nature to throw off sickness by
building health from its very source, and
flesh is formed only by its continued use.
Avoid alcoholic substitutes for SCOTS.

BOY AIRAIAN'S FEAT.
UpyfDr Down fLtaHr Ar HExDoS.
"a Topping Sensation.

"yyhat a topping sensation" was the sim
pile schoolboy remark Of young George Lee
Temple, the " baby airmun,' after flying
upside down at Hendon Aerolrome on
Monday afternoon. 1t was the first time tbs
feat had been accomplished by M English
man in tins country.
This fair-haired boy Of twenty-one, who
looks even younger, had been warned again
and again by older airman that he was too
inexperienced to attempt such o feat, ana
even the makers of his aeroplane-a 50-h.p.
Bl6riot monoplane-had told him that bis
machine was not suitable. But he was de-
termined to emulate NJ, Pe9oud, the French
airman, and his pluck carried him through.
Half al honr after he arose III the air to
make the attempt he was nearly 5,000ft. IN
the air, and suddenly there was q great
shout. The machine had tipped on its nose
and was rushing d~ownwards in n vertical po-
sition. Then another shout, which broke
the tension of the excited spectators. The
boy had done it! The tail Of the machine
had turned over aud the pilot was flying
upside down.
A thrill of alarm followed The mono
plane" sidesIipped,' the right wing tipping
somewhat, and for a moment it was rushing
through the air ut a dangerous angle. Then
it seemed to right itself, but the peril had
not passed. The machine was still upside
down and was diving to earth at a prodl-
gious speed. When about 1,00O to 1000
feet from The ground, however, the mono
plane resumed its normal position, ana came
down in a spiral vol-Piane.
Flushed aud excited, Mr.. Lee Temple
could not for a moment believe in his own
success. "Hlve l lone il? Have I really
done it? Are you sure have dope it?' were
questions he kept firing at the applaudin8
airmen.
Mr.. Lee Temple is a nephew Of the late
Sir Richard Temple. He gained his pilots
certificate as recently as February Of this
year.-DaiIy Nail, No0.99th.

ty, Oregon, and another will be organ
lied Immediately at Scappoose, ac-
cording to Professor R. R. Graves.
head of the college dairying depart
ment. The organization was preceded
by a canvass Of the district by college
extension workers, and by addresses
on organization by Professor Graves.
Timely and powerful help was also
rendered by Judge Judd, of the Clat-
sop county court, who took the organ
izers to Grange hall, where the meet
ing was held, boosted Loyalty for or
ganization, and by his advice and per-
sonal work contributed largely to the
success of the plan.
The dairymen present signed con-
tracts to enter 400 cows, paying the
sum of $1.25 per COW annually for
testers salary and other expenses.
Approximately 200 more cows have
been promised. All cows signed will
have their milk tested once month,
and owners will learn precisely which
cows are profitable and which are
loafers.
