Doctors say take Cod Liver 0/7 —they undoubtedly mean Scott’s Emulsion. It would be just as sensible for them to prescribe Quinine in its crude form as to pre scribe Cod Liver Oil in its natural state. In Scott’s Emulsion the oil is emulsified and made easy to take—easy to digest and easy to be absorbed in to the body—and is the most natural and useful fatty food to feed and nourish the wasted body that is known in medicine today. Nothing can be found to take its place. If you are run-down you should take it.

To the southward, its green clad, snow capped mountains rising from a turquoise sea, lay Crete, the is land of mythology and massacre. It was a picture of sunshine and ani mation of vivid colors and strange peoples such as one seldom sees ex cept in some gorgeously staged comic opera. But even as this was in my mind, says a writer in the Travel Maga zine, a gun boomed out from a crumbling bastion, and five little balls ran up five flagstaffs standing in a row on the uppermost ram parts and broke out into five flags. The morning breeze caught up their folds and held them straight out, as though for our benefit, so that we could make them out quite plainly. Four of them were old friends that I had encountered on all of the seven seas —the union jack and the tricolor and the St. Andrew’s cross of Russia and the red, white and green banner of It aly—but the fifth flag, which flew somewhat higher than the others, was of unfamiliar design. The sin gle blood red square, however, bounded by the Greek cross and bearing the gleaming star of Beth lehem, told its own story, and I knew it for the flag of Crete. I knew that there was deep sig nificance in the design of that un known flag and in the position of the four familiar ones that flew be low it, for they signaled to all the world that the Turk had been driv en out, never to return; that Chris tianity had triumphed over Mo hammedanism and that the cross had indeed replaced the crescent; that the centuries of massacre wero now but memories; that peace in the guise of foreign soldiery had, for a time at least, found an abid ing place in Crete, and, most sig nificant of all, that the strange flag with the single star would be up held if necessary by the mightiest array of bayonets and battleships in all Christendom. Canea, which is the seat of gov ernment, is the most picturesquely cosmopolitan spot west of Suez. It is equidistant from the shores of Europe, Asia and Africa, it has a mild and equable climate, living is cheap, there is a large garrison of foreign soldiery, there are no ex tradition treaties in force, and trouble of one kind and another is always browing. Like a magnet, therefore, Canea has attracted the scum and off scouring of all the Levant—needy soldiers of fortune, professional revolution makers, smooth spoken gamblers and confidence men, Egyptian donkey boys, out at el bows ; dragomans who speak a score of tongues and hail from no one knows where—all that rabble of the needy, the adventurous and the desperate who follow the armies of occupation and are always to be found on the fringe of civilization. Celerful Zanzibar. Zanzibar is the brightest, richest in color, most energetically com mercial of all the East African ports. All is noise, activity, glitter.

There is no street or house which does not suggest the scenic artist and the limelight. We expect the water girls to appear as slaves in the next act and that the sultan’s band down in the palace square will presently strike up an operatic tune. —National Magazine. An Introduction. Harry was walking with another bov when he was joined by a friend a vear or so older and inclined to manners. “Introduce me, Harry,” the new comer whispered pompously. Harry twisted, reddened and at last turned to his companion with, “Jim, have you ever seen Gilbert Spencer ?” “No,” the other boy answered. “Well,” Harry blurted out, red dening still more -and jerking one thumb over his shoulder toward the newcomer, “that’s him!”—Lippin- cott's. Breochlc-dlng Cannon. The breech’Aiding cannon were among the ea.-t used. We find them on English and other ships as early as the last quarter of the four teenth century, and therefore much before the time of the buccaneers. The cannon was a mere tube, bound with heavy iron rings, and was load ed by the insertion of the “gonne chamber.” an iron pan containing the charge, which fitted into and closed the breech. These guns were very ilumsv affairs in comparison with the modern breechloader, but the principle was the wa*- KF IN MEMORY Os Mrs. R. A. Coulter, who de parted this life November 18th, 1908, in Tyler, Texas, after a long siege o fill health. Our sister was called to rest asleep in Jesus, yes, we speak by having known her for 18 years, and often met her while under the burden of great care trials and bereavement, the loss of love ones, and disappointments and sore afflictions in life, she would cheer up bravely under her loss and say, “Well, if it wasn't for the wondreful power, the mercy and will of my Savior I couldn’t bear it, but I have such strong confidence in my Master that He doeth all things well.” she said she was glad she could trust Him. What a pearl, dear par ents, to find, is it not, a good inspiration to others as well as the good of her own soul?. She visited the siek and spoke words of comfort to them. She did this while she was hardly able to go herself, and not expecting things in return. She was obedient to her Master’s command and her eyes would brighten at the sound of Jesus name and when a con versation came up on eternal life she soon become interested her self. Let us prepare to meet her at the Savior’s right hand. We hav frequently heard her friends say,’ '' I did love her so much. ’ She has gone and we will nev er see her bright, cheerful coun tenance nor hear that once famil iar sweet voice loved to meet so well. Let us pray for the salva tion of her children and take up the, work where she laid it down in the vineyard and press to help praise the great redeemer in end less day. “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith, henceforth there is a erown of righteousness laid up for me. Written by a friend. Sound Philosophy. Os all methods of making anoth er person angry and disagreeable the worst is to tell him that he will “li*ve to” do something. How often do we hear, “You will have to go to the other window,” “'You will have to go into the other car,” “You will have-to wait an hour," “You will have to write the general passenger agent or superintend ent,” and the like! Primarily we are all free agents and dont "have to” do a darned thing. We may find it exp bent or necessary to a certain end, but we don t even "have to” eat if we don't want to.

The nutmeg is the kerne 1 , of the fruit of several species of trees growing wild in Asia, Africa and America. The cultivated nutmeg tree is from fifty to seventy-five feet high and produces fruit for sixty years. The fruit is of the size and appearance of a roundish pear, yellow in color. The fleshy part of the fruit is rather hard and resembles candied citron. Within is the nut, enveloped in the curious yellowish red aril known to us as mace. Up to 1796 the Dutch, being in possession of the islands produc ing the only valuable variety of the nutmeg, jealously tried to prevent the carrying of the tree or a living seed of it into any territory inde pendent of Dutch rule. His Latin Helped. There was a famous British offi cer, Lieutenant General Sir George Murray, who served in -the expedi tion to Egypt. When before Alex andria, the troops having suffered severely from want of water, his literary acquirements were of ths greatest service, instructing him that Caesar’s army had been in the same predicament. Referring to his “Caesar” (which he always carried in his portable library), he found his recollection right —that water had been obtained by the Romans from wells dug at a certain spot in the sands. A trial was immediate ly made, and the result was a co pious supply. The British troops braced up and conquered Egypt.— New York Press. She Felt For Him. He had sat looking absentmind edly out of the train window for two hours, whistling the same tune and not on the key. The passen gers had become well nigh distract ed. A well known actress sat behind the young man. Finally there came a moment when the whistler paused for breath, and in that moment the quick w.itted actress leaned over and said: “I know just how it is. I never could whistle either.” Ladies’ Home Journal. An Old Story.
