An Easy Way To Get

The trouble with most thin folks who

seemingly embodies the missing elements

them convert food into rich. fat-laden

MINERS LOOK OUT

When you first notice a cough
even that little tickling in the throat,
which some think is a ''mere cold", it
may mean serious trouble for you, be-
cause the dust of the mines often brings
bronchitis, pneumonia or consumption
even to men stronger than you.
What you need-and need at once
is 4 bottle of SCOTS Emulsion to
check the cough and help the Innings
of the bronchial passages to prevent
sickness and loss of ''time".
In SCOTS Emulsion you get pure
cod liver oil blended with glycerine
and hypophosphites which quickly
improves your blood, fortifes your
lungs and builds up your strength. 1t
IS free from alcohol. Physicians pre-
cribe it every day. Beware of substitutes.

REDUCTION IN POTATO RATE.
1. C. c. Gives Topeka Through Rate
From Northern Points.

\ reduction of four cents a hun
dredweight on potatoes in carload
shipments from northern points to To-
peka has been obtained through a
ruling of the interstate commerce
commission, which orders interested
carriers not to exceed the Kansas City
potato rate by four cents. The new
rates become effective March Is,
1916, and affect shipments from Wis
consin, Michigan, Minnesota, North
Dakota and South Dakota.
The reduction is the result of a
complaint filed June Is, 1913, by II.
D. Driscoll. commissioner of the To-
pel1a Traffic association. A hearing
was held in Topeka before Special
Examiner Pattison, November 10,
1914.
Evidence presented to the commits
sion showed that Topeka was an i'm
portant potato distributing point, han
ding about 500 cars a year. 1t was
also pointed out that local dealers
could get no through rates from Min
nesota and the Dakotas to Topeka or
other points in Kansas and were COM
PEELED to pay the rate to Kansas City
plus the rate from Kansas City to To :
peka. which has been eight cents.
Evidence also showed that while there
were through rates from the Wiscon-
sin group, they were practically the
Kansas City combination.
1t was pointed out to the commits
sion that dealers located at the Mis-
souri, river were thus given a distinct
advantage in that they could mix
grades and varieties of potatoes and
send them forward as cheaply as the
interior dealer could move a straight
carload.
In fixing a through rate, the COM
mission split the existing rate be-
tween Kansas City and Topeka and
has ordered carriers not to exceed
the Kansas City rate by four cents

While loadings are being maintain

ern railways entering Chicago for the
third week of January show a decrease
as compared with the previous week
and a few weeks ago. Decreases in
movements of live stock and of grain,
except in the case of elevator ship
