WY rev. ARE NERVOUS

The nervous system is thealarm system
of the human body.
In perfect health we hardly realize that
we have a network of nerves, but when
health is ebbing, when strength is declin-
ing, the same nervous system gives the
alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful
sleep, irritability and unless corrected,
leads straight to a breakdown.
To correct nervousness, SCOTS Emul-
sion is exactly what you should take; its
rich nutriment gets into the blood and
rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while
the whole system responds to its refresh
ing tonic force. 1t is free from alcohol

Bill McCabe's Poughkeepsie team
was playing the Kingston team, one
day years ago, in the Atlantic league,
and guy named Fogarty was umpire.
In the ninth inning, with the score
tied. two of McCabe's men played out,
and as Bill had only one man extra,
he had to rush the bleacher seats to
hnd a man to fill in. He drew big
hick, who said he couldn't play, but for
the fun could fill in. There were two
out at the time and the fans were ex-
