Most people know that if they hrfve been sick they need Scott's Emul~ j/on to bring back health and strength. But the strongest point about Scott s Emulsion is that you don’t have to be sick to get results from it. It keeps up the athlete’s strength, puts fat on thin people, makes a fretful baby happy, brings color to a pale girl’s cheeks, and pre vents coughs, colds and consumption. Food in concentrated form for sick and well, young and old, rich and poor. And it contains no drugs and no alcohol. ALL DRUQOISTS; BOo. AND $1.00. 278,659,689 short tons #305,397,001, in 1904.

Pardon me for threshing over this old chaff; but smart men, like the Onio Senator, keep it stirred up, and I must take my turn at the crank too. President Roosevelt’s action in this matter was so manifestly just that 1 can not see how any one not a fool, a crank, or a rascal, could possibly find ground for objections. Had they been white soldiers, and every one a native of Georgia, 1 would say the same, because crime is crime, it matters not who is the criminal. The championship of such as Foraker is not a charitable desire to benefit the supposedly downtrodden and abused, but is inspired by the love ot notoriety,or the hope of gain.
