"SPED 1 LIFE"
That's what a prominent
druggist said of Scott's
Emulsion a short time
ago. As a rule we don't
use or refer to testimonials
in addressing the public,
but the above remark and
similar expressions are
made so often in connec
tion with Scott's Emulsion
that they are worthy of
occasional note. From
infancy to old age Scott's
Emulsion offers a reliable
means of remedying im
proper and weak develop
ment, restoring lost flesh
and vitality, and repairing
waste. The action of
Scott's Emulsion is no
more of a secret than the
composition of the Emul
sion itself. What it does
it does through nourish
mentthe kind of nourish
ment that cannot be ob
tained in ordinary food.
No system is too weak or
delicate to retain Scott's
Emulsion and gather good
from it.

Sabbath Breaking,
It is contrary to the laws of God
and man to work on the Sabbath,
yet the railroads are kept busy, and
some of our mills take that day to
make changes and repairs. It is as
unlawful and sinful to woik one man
as u hundred, so why not make full
time? Or, why arrest one man for
selling a cigar or glass of beer to the
poor devil at work in the machine
shop or cleaning boilers, while his
employer, being rich, goes free?

To Our Subscribers.
Deau Fill ends : We place u cross
mark on the margin, or wrapper, of
yentr paper this wei.-k, if your .-: in
scription has expired. If you tind
it on yours please take it as an invi
tation to pay up ur renew as the
case may be.
We have given you the very best
pager its patronage will justify, and
are not able to lose a single cent of
what is due us, or spend much m its
collection nor do wo think you will
allow us to uo so, intentionally. But
we are now needing funds very bad
ly, and trust you will make an effort
to releive us. None of you owe very
much, but the many littles aie our
dependance.
Cash in advance is newspaper rule
everywhere, as a publisher must
spend money every week to keep the
paper going, and if not paid iu ad
vance the cash must come iiom his
own pocket, which means that he is
lending you his money every week.
Another rule with local papers is
to keep the paper going to )our ad
dress until ordered discontinued,
and all arrearages are paid. The
law protects us in this and if it did
not we would be compelled to do so
anyway, for almost without an ex
ception, a man gets mad if we stop
his paper, taking it lhat we doubted
his honesty and was afraid to trust
him.
We give the above facts that you
may fully understand the position
we are in, and understanding this,
we feel sure you will do your part
toward your county paper and its
editor.
