Does
Thrive'?
If your baby is delicate
and sickly and its food does
not nourish it, put fifteen
or twenty drops of Scott’s
Emulsion in its bottle three
or four times a day and you
will see a marked change.
We have had abundant
proof that they will thrive
on this emulsion when other
food fails to nourish them.
It is the same with larger
children that are delicate.
Scott’s Emulsion seems to be
the element lacking in their
food. Do not fail to try it if
your children do not thrive.
It is as useful for them in
summer as in winter. j
Ask your doctor if this is not true.

Seine New Tax s.
Among the many items th.it will b
taxed under the wav revenue bil
th re aic a number that will alter
the people directly. But the class*
as well as the masses will have to bea
the burdens
1. There is a pretty stiff tax of te
_ a „ .. .xnimfl /ill tijfl
cents a pound on t>-a.
2. A beer and tobacco tax will un
doubtedly make these articles dearer,
ov tbe consumer must be content with
less or an inferior article.
3 Life insurance policies will cost
SO cents a 51,000..
4. Patent medicines and chewing
gum will come m abo for theii sbaie.
5. Bankers and brokers will pay a
special tax.
6. Boards of trade and tbe issue of
new securties must pay something to
the government.
7. Telegrams and long distance
telephone messages.
8. Wine ami sleeping ear ticket-).
9. Sugar ami oil refiners.
10. Inheritances must also pay a
tax, begining at 3-4 of one per cent on
direct inheritances of more than s lO,
OuO and less than $‘25,000: this tax goes
all the way up to 15 per cent on leg
acies of over {I,COO, 000 inherited by
remote relatives or not connected with
blood.
Besides these provisions, there is a
bond feature, but it is not thought
that it will be necessary to issue all
tbe bonds authorized under the ex
igencies of the war.
Composition on “Man.”
Thts composition on “man’ is said
to be the production of an old maid:
“Man is a two-legged animal that
ch' ws tobacco and walks on the fork
ed end. Most men are born: we
never heard of hut one that wasn’t
and he wag made of mud fora sample.
Man’s life is full of disapointments,
growls and pipes. He goes forth like
a lion in the morning arid leaves the
wood for his wife to chop and in the
evening sr.eaketh home witn Ins pants
lipped and his heels gone and raising
cane about hard times. He has the
grip on road working days and walks
twenty miles to a circus. He will
chase a rabbit four miles through the
snow and then borrow a horse to riue
a half mile to the post-office.”

Tlie Georgia Peach Crop.
The word comes that Georgia’s
peach crop this tear will be unpre

fruit which has been brought to town.
In September the coiton grower will

Gomez Ready
Captain Rufel Conte, of the Cuban
army lias arrived at tiie lieadquarers
of the Cuban junta in this city, with
dispatches from General Gomez. He
was accompanied by a lieutenant of
the Army of Liberation,
Captain Conte ana his companion
left Gomez in Las Villas. The gen
eral then bad with him a bodyguard
of only 60 inti) —a cavalry escort.
There was lit,le food in the region
where Gomez was making his head
quarters, so he did not mass any laige
number of men there, but had them
spread ove'* a large extent of tern—
tory and directed their movements
from his headquarters.
He Ims all the necessary arrange
ments made for the concentration of
the troops when the proper time
comes, but keeps them scattered and
employed in a gueriila warfare in the
meantime, so that they may find food
The captain claim’s that Comezcan
concentrate 30,000 armed men in a
short time at any point where it is de
sired. There are several thousand
more men who are attached to
Gomez’s army, ond are only waiting
for arms to hr available for eefensiv e
or offensive operations.- —N. Y. V\ orld.

\V. T. Bryan on War.
Hon. W, J. Bryan made a splendid
address at the Omaha Exposition
grounds yesterday.
Uis subject was on that uppermost
topic in every one’s mind now—me
war.
Mr. Bryan’s oration was notable for
one thing —his first public declaration
on tin* war issue, lie took a high
ground on the question, urging that
ihe war is for humanity, and not the
extending of the United States teni
tnry In concluding he said the man
ifest destiny of the nation is not to
acquire new realms to govern, but to
carry out the fundamental principles
democracy to the end that equality
among tie citizens maybe secured
Mr, Bryan said in part-
“War is harsh; it is attended by
haardsbtpf and suffering, it means a
vast expenditure of money and men.
We may all pray for the coming ct
the time promised in Holy Writ when
the sears shall be beaten intu pruning
hooks, and the swords into plow
shares; but universal peace cannot
come until justice is enthroned
throughout the world. Jehovah deals
with nations as he deals with men,
and for both decrees that the wages
of sin Is death. Until'the right has
triumphed in every land and love
reigns m every heart, government

As long as the oppressor is deaf to
the voice of reason, so long must the
citizen accustom his shoulder to the
musket and his hand to the saber,
• Our nation exhausted diplomacy in
its efforts to secure a peaceable solu
tion of the Cuban question, and only
took up arms when it was compelled
to choose between war and servile
submission in cruelty, which would
have been a disgraceful submission to
barbarism
“History will vindicate the position
taken by the United States in the ar
with Spain. In saying this I assume
that the principles which were in
voked in the inauguration of the war
will oe observed in its prosecution
and conclusion. If a contest under
