. WHAT CATARRH IS 8

1t has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in SCOTS Emulsion which is
medicinal food and a building tonic, free
from alcohol or any harmful drugs. Tryit.

Who Will Take Care of the Other BabyI

A WOMAN read that Sc cents would keep a
"A baby alive for week and that the Emer-
gency Aid Committee had only money enough
to take care of the babies dependent on it for
few days longer.
You must keep a baby alive for week"
she said to her husband, and the next day
telephoned to him at his office to be sure to
remember the baby.
The man went TO the Lincoln Building. in
Penn Square. and left enough to keep two
babies for a week. The question was asked.
"Do you want to keep one baby for two weeks
or two for one week?"
He was staggered by the unexpected call
to settle this matter of life and death, but
left the decision to the young woman in
charge
IF you take care of one baby for two weeks
the little thing win get good start. I think
that is better"
SO It was left that way. But who is going
20 take care OF that other baby?

The home telephone number is Poplar 5s67, and
