Older BUT STRONGER

To be healthy at seventy, prepare at
forty, is sound advice, because in the
strength of middle life we too often forget
that neglected colds, or careless treat
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older, keep your
blood pure and rich and active with the
strength building and blood nourishing
properties of SCOTS Emulsion which is a
food, tonic and medicine to keep your
blood rich, alleviate rheumatism and
avoid sickness. No alcohol in SCOTS.

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES.

That Britain should retire the first lord of
the admiralty and the first sea-lord of the navy
the guiding powers of British strategy upon
the sea-indicates tremendously serious sit
uation.
Friction between Winston Churchill and
Baron Fisher is hardly enough to account for
the retirement of both. The conviction must
have come to the British government that the
navy will achieve better success under other
men. .-f"~~
1t is not unlikely that the sinking of the Lus-
tania has brought such criticism upon the adj
miralty as to make this double retirement adj
visable. That the Lusitania, emphatically fore
warned of the danger of German submarines,
should have steamed unprotected into ST..
Georges Channel was the subject of immediate
criticism as soon as the disaster occurred. The
British navy, said the critics, should have
thrown screen of fast cruisers, scouts and de-
stroyers around the queenly liner Apparently
the British navy gave her no special protection
in the war-zone. 1t is significant that Britain
should be willing to swap horses in the middle
of this extraordinarily dangerous stream.

THE FRANK CASE.

The Leo Frank case, which has attracted ex-

States, has brought up the question of the jul
dietary and states rights, according to the
New York World Discussing this case, the
World says: .... ...
"While great many people will sympathize
heartily with the dissenting opinion of Justices
Hughes and Holmes in the case of Leo NJ. Frank
of Georgia, it is difficult to see how this judicial
reasoning can be upheld without making all
criminal prosecutions in the states subject to
review by the Supreme Court of the United
States. Assuming jurisdiction Of that kind, the
court would soon break down and be incapable
of performing the greater duties constitutional
ly assigned to it. r.. -. .~.-..zs@
1T is possible and even probable however,
that the solemn words of the minority opinion
in this case will have in Georgia almost as much
influence as Judgment of the court. Justices
Hughes and Holmes dwell with much force
upon the intimidation exercised upon court and
jury in Atlanta by crowds of people upon whom
there was no restraint. If Franks conviction
resulted from lynch law practised by regu-
larry drawn jury, it was no less lawless than
the decree of mob The State Judge who pre-

upon the jury. .=- 1872.
