Wolff Store Inundated Through ]luiv>t<‘4l Water Pipe. I —That’s what a prominent druggist said of Scott’s | Emulsion a short time I ago. As a rule we don’t use or refer to testimonials in addressing the public, but the above remark and similar expressions are riade 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 Emui- sion itself. What it does it does through nourish ment—the kind of nourish ment that cannot be op*^ tained in ordinary food. No system is too weak or delicate to retain Scott’s Emplsion and gather good from it. .

A mournful h' ene met his gaze. .■ A, water pipe on the second floor of the building hud bursted and was letting through til.- celling a torrent of water. For tunately tl'o stock was little dam. aged. In that end of the store there were only a few cheap hats and these were soon removed beyond the wat er’s reach. Tho scene was a lively one while volunteers were moving the sky pieces amid the rattle of fall ing piaster. The flood continued for about two hours.

As soon os it was 'earned that an attempt had been made to .wreck the train some of the pasengers armed themselves and looked around the woods tor the per petrators, thinking that they would probably be near to reap the spoils of their act.
