Grippe or Influenza, whichever you like to call it, is one of the most weakening diseases known. Scott's Emulsion, which is Cod Liver Oil and Hypophosphites in easily di gested form, is the greatest strength-builder known to medical science. It is so easily digested that it sinks into the system, making new blood and new fat, and strengthening nerves and muscles. Use Scott's Emulsion after Influenza. Invaluable for Coughs and Colds.

Foraker knows well enough that Roosevelt was right, and Rockefeller and Wanamaker feel and know they are humiliating their own con sciences, but it must be done in These old reprobates know that if they set the people to scratching each other, they can still loot them without trouble. but the hand writing on the wall cannot be ef faced, and the people can read the tricks of the conspirators.
