What CAUSES colds?

This question and How to Prevent
Colds" is asked a thousand times
every day. A. cold is Sseuy fsVer,
not always caused by the weather. but
due to a diso1dercd condition Of the
blood or lack Of important food
elements. In changing seasons fat
foods arc essential because they dis
tribute heat by enriching the blood
and so render the body better able
to Withstand the varying elements.
This is the underlying reason why
the medicinal fats in SCOTS Emulsion
quickly overcome colds and build
strength to prevent more serious sick
ness. 1t contains natures medicinal
fats, so skillfully prepared that the
blood profits from every drop, and II Is
free from harmful druRs or alcohol.

A Story of Denmark.

Uncle Jed: am going to tell you a few things about Denmark. Copen- hagen, the capital. has a population of about 65o,o00. None of tbelr buiId- lngs must be over seven stories higa This does not include the towers. The courthouse is a fine brick building. There Is a large clock on the tower. Everybody who goes up therf. must write his or her name on the wall. Every time the clock strikes 1t play s a Danish tune
 Another fine tower is the Round tower. It Is built of stone. This tow CT Is 15 stories high. From the top of this tower you have a fine view of Copenhagen.
 In Copenhagen the sun rises abou. three o'clock a. m and sets about eleven D. m-
 Jutlnnd is also a nice place. Ii is queer how the people there plant fruit trees along the public road and any body who passes can gather the fruit. They have large ovens built of brick outdoors. to bake their bread: they use brush to make a fire with They heat the ovens for about five hours. then clean them out, and then pu. the bread in. not in pans, but on the bare bricks. 1 sometimes think | could not eat their bread But have had some and do not find any dffference between that method of baking and our method.
