Fmcourage your boys and girls to
rend Uio newspaper. It is n great
educator; it leacbos them to think
for themselves, and thus develops
independence of character. It makes
them familiar with what is tfoingon

when they too imisLenter it and take
their places among the busy throngs;
thus arming them with intelligence
and information necessary to enable
them to bold their own.

How To
Gain Flesh
Persons have been known fo
gain a pmmd & d^sy by taking
an ounce of SCOTT’S EMUL*
SION, It is strange, but it often
happens.
Somehow the ounce produces
the pound; it seems to start the
digestive machinery going prop¬
erly, so that the patient is able
to digest and absorb his ordinary
food, which he could not do be¬
fore, and that is the way the gain
is made.
A certain amount of flesh Is
necessary for health; if you have
not got it you can get it by
%rnm FgHiisfen
it don’t stop because the weather is warm.
