A WORD FOR MOTHERS

1t is grave mistake for mothers to neg
lect their aches and pains and suffer in
silence-this only leads to chronic sick
ness and often shortens life.
Ifyour work is firing; if your nerves are
excitable; if you feel languid, weary or
depressed, you should know that SCOTS
Emulsion overcomes just such conditions.
1t possesses in concentrated form the
very elements to invigorate the blood,
strengthen the tissues, nourish the nerves
and build strength.

mothers-and will help you. No alcohol.

DISMISS THE
WOLF
WALL STREET
David Larnar's Case Taken
To Supreme Court, Is
Dropped
q AssocIATEp PRESS.

Washington, Feb. 1.-The appeal
of David Lamar from his conviction
in the New York federal courts on
charges of impersonating an official
of the United States with intent to
defraud, was dismissed today by the
supreme court as without merit.
Lamar was convicted after SEN
sational disclosure in the COMPRESSION
al investigation of campaign contribu-
tons in 1913, that in telephone CONVEX
sations with certain leading Wall
street fnanciers he had represented
himself to be Representative A. Mitch
ell Palmer, of Pennsylvania and had
made proposals to influence legislation
before congress.
He was convicted of intent to de-
fraud Lewis Cass Ledyard, J. Pierpont
Morgan and others, and was sentenced
to two years in Atlanta penitentiary.
Lamar's appeal was based largely
on the claim that representative in
congress was not an officer of the
United States.

CITY FURNISHES
TREES To SCHOOL
EIGHTEEN IN ALL WERE GIVEN
TO NO. 43, AND PLANTING WAS
A BIG FEATURE OF THE DAY
THERE YESTERDAY.

). Eighteen trees were donated by the
city to be planted at school No. 43, in
the extreme northwestern part of the
city yesterday, and these were all
planted there, with the good wishes
of the street department and the
mayor, who was greatly inter
ested to receive an application a few
days ago for a supply from that
school.
The city employees and street ex-
pert, Mr.. Kemb1e, was f1oaned" the
school for the day, and it is almost a
sure thing that every tree planted
will be a fiourishing one shortly.
The city, in due time, expects to
procure trees from time to time, it is
said, and IN addition to setting them
out in the parks and squares, will pro-
vide them as supply justifes, to the
different schools which will make ap-
plication for them. There cannot be
too many trees in school yard, it is
argued, and the city will do its share
toward encouraging tree planting just
as far as available resources viii per-
init.
