SJIfEfl ini LIFE —That’s what a prominent druggist said of Scott’s Emulsion a short time ago. As a rule we don’t ise or refer to testimonials :n addressing the public; im t the above remark and similar expressions are mode 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- rdtnedying 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 ment—the kind of nourish ment that cannot be ob tained in ordinary food; No system-ls too weak or delicate to retain Scott's .

U8E OF FRENCH WORDS. A Practice That Daaa Mat Hafp the Eaallsh laanagt. Why do people persist In using French word* when there are good old English words .to serve tbe purpose? It to a habit that to growing dally. For Instance, at dinner people give you “menu” Instead of “bill of faret” though lb* item* are sack English Jtokes as boiled cod, rout beef and ap ple tart One to accommodated with a serviette Instead, of a napkin, an Eng lish word, but originally of French or igin, as to tbe Scotch word napery, need for household linen. When you enter a shop you are served- with cor sets Instead of stays, costomos by a coetuiulcre Instead of dresses by a Cmmetcr. “riorhcs” Jake'the place of eh!: is or waists, and hose are of fered for stockings. The former word is, however. English. At the theater wo have programmes Instead of play bills nnd matiueve-ln place of ufteruoou performunics. Toques are adjusted with ns much onse an hots, nnd wo eut In n restaurant ns cheerfully aa In n dining ruum. ’t here are. of course, un- translatr.lila words which must bo lived, lint our good old English lan guage Is rapid!} .hecotulug u. hotch potch of foreign wurds, while telegra phy Is doing Its beat to oust nil tho crisp and racy Sasun speech. .
