Have You Heard Of II ?
You may have heard about SCOTT'S EMULSION and have a vague notion @ that it is cod-liver oil with its bad taste and smell and all its other repulsive fea- tures. It is cod-liver oil, the purest and the best in the world, but made so palata- ble that almost everybody can take it. Nearly all children like it and ask for more.
SCOTT'S EMULSION
looks like cream; it nour- ishes the wasted body of the baby, child or adult better than cream or any other food in existence. It bears about the same rela- tion to other emulsions that cream does to milk. If you have had any experience with other so-called "just as good" preparations, you will find that this is a fa ... The hypophosphites that are combined with the cod-liver oil give additional value to it because they tone up the nervous system and Impart strength to the whole body .

For the head- strong and the husty her voice of coun- sel auil of comfort is too low to be heard or heeded, but to the patient she speaks of strength and to the sorrowful of cheer.
She loves to lend herself to man's de- light, vet often seems to withdraw co- operation that she may draw out bardl- hood. At first she only promises to wing man's hoal in the one direction in which her breezes blow, but at last. she teaches him that he may sall nthwart the wind if he will only learn and trust Its ways. He who fears ber tempests urver grasps the secret of her power. Ile who overcomes her hindrances learns what treasures of delight and strength are open to the strong.

Strive to Improve.
Wherever you nre in life, no matter how low your place is, it is a good place to sprout in, though it may not be a good place to grow or dwell in. Leave your root where God planted it, but mount up ont of poverty, mount up out of lind companionship, mount up out of secular ways of life, and lift yourselves loward the light. Let out- ward nature teach you. Oh, how a root will engineer and fiad the suste- nance that it needs! How it will spread over the rock, and plunge down into the precipice, and go in search of the stream that is running afar off! Even the blind root finds its way without reason, and by a mere instinct of appe- tite, under ground; and let it rebuke you .- N. W. Christian Advocate.
Why Christians Prosper.
As a rule God's people have a plenty; they bare food for their tables and rai- meut for their backs. This is not brought about by ministering ravens, or multiplying loaves and fishes, or any otber miraculous manifestation, but in accordance with the laws of his king- dom. The precepts of His Word en- join industry, economy, honesty, tem -- perance, perseverance and the other virtues which are rewarded with suc- cess. They may not be rich, as the world measures wealth, but they have contentment, which is far better, and to which the men of "much goods" and "mDEny barns" are strangers .- United Presbyterian

"DAD'S" HOME COMING
VERY volunteer regiment when ordered E to return to its native state, there to he mustered out of the volunteer service feels that when it reaches bome it musl make the best appearance possible so as to show the friends who will be congregatec to welcome it back to its native fown that it is a regiment of soldiers. To start with the colonel calls a meeting of the officer and impresses them with the importance of making a good appearance. Who ever saw a colonel, and especially a volunteer colonel, who was not proud of his command and all breaches of discipline, all faults of whatever kind would be forgiven if only his men would make one last effort to pro tuce a good effect when they reached home by making a good appearance on the street.
that has been favored
i.ty has maile a street pa den it returned home, and it is dur feature of the regiment's existence nent is expected greater than this istory. That was
the inspection by guvernulent officers which was to determine whether or not the regi ment was to be- , +++ Foreign soil to en. gage in battle. Then Ho efforts were ever spared to make everything of the best And it can be said to the glory of the vol unteer soldier that many-in- regiments that did not secure the opportunity of dis- playing their valor on the battle line passed an inspection that whe worthy of the best of old campaigners, So true was this that the government officers found it hard to se lect the best, and many that remained ad home were pronounced the equals of those that went.
When the Seventh Illinois volunteer in fantry were ordered to return to ("bicago, there to he mustered out of the government service, it passed through the same experi ence that every other volunteer regiment has before or since. The colonel made the customary speech to his officers and they in turn lectured their men on the necessity of making the best possible appearance But one battalion of that regiment secured an extra speech on this all-important sub ject.
Maj. Lawrence M. Ennis, commanding a battalion of this regiment, is a lawyer by profession, when he is not soldiering, and, like all lawyers, likes to make a speech when he has an audience, and such an op. portunity as this was not to be lost. He had his battalion formed-in close order and then proceeded to give the men his ileas of a proper return home, and what their de-| portment should be on the occasion of the | inevitable street parade.
Chill ia to have a floating exposition. "Officers and men of my battalion," he German newspapers praise the Amer- began, "we have served-the government that ' ican consular service.
called for us faithfully for six months. We have not been so fortunate as some of our whow the valor of our command on the field of battle; but we have proved ourselves sol- diers and have elicited words of praise from our superiore. Now we are to return home to be mustered out. We are to go back to Chicago to wives, mothers and sweethearts, to our various places of business. We will receive the same glorious reception that our comrades from every city in the land are receiving as they return home; but this re ception must not. cause us to forget that we are soldiers. We must show to our friends at home that we have not spent six months in the service of the government without learning how to be soldiers.
"There is tiot a way among you who hat more friends in Chiengo than I have; there is not one of you who wi! be calleil to more than I will from friends along the line of march in our home city. There will be a wife and hahies stunding on the street to wave to me, to call to me, toseek for at least one glance. There will be-the same for many of you; but it is the soblier's duty to keep his eyes to the front.

Then the march through the streets began, and everywhere were encountered the same hilarions crowds of people enger to welcome the returning soldier, but in the last bat- talian at least not an eye was turned to the right or left; every man looked straight at the back of his major's neck, and all went well until Fifth avenue was reached. The
major heard only the steady trump, tramp, tramp, of his men behind him when his eye was attracted by a woman far ahead of him waving a handkerchief in one hand while in the other arm she beld a mite of a baby, and as she waved her handkerchief she called loudly: :
"Daddy! Oh, Daddy!"
And then she saw "Daddy." He was in the front rank of the first company of the major's battalion, and her joy knew n bounds.
"Daddy, Daddy, Daddy," she cried, as he came nearer.
"Oh, Daddy, won't you Juok ?"" But "Dad- dy" wouldn't.
"Daddy, Daddy, won't you look? Won't you look at Momsey and the baby, the pretty little baby what you never saw ?" But whde a tear stole down the rugged cheeks of the big. broad, shouldered "Dad- dy" he looked only at the back of the ma- jor's neck. But of the major. That ery for "Daddy" had gone clear to his soldier's heart. As he expressed it, "it was enough to tear the rails from the street car tracks," and something must be done for that mother.
