- That's what a prominent
druggist said of Scott’s
Emulsion a short time
ago. As a rule we don’t
use or refer to testimonials
in addressing the public,
but the above remark and
similar expressions are
made 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 llesli
and vitality, and repairing
waste. The ac t i o n of
Scott’s Emulsion is no
more of a secret than the
composition of the Emul
sion itself. What it does
it does through nourish
ment—the kind of nourish
ment that cannot be ob
tained in ordinary food.
No system is too weak or
delicate to retain Scott’s
Emulsion and gather good
from it.
We will send you a

form of a label is on the wrapper |
of every bottle of Emulsion you j

The introduction to the “Last
Roll'’ in the January Confederate
Veteran says; It is now forty
.vat* Mi.cc the close of the War
between the States. Many who
participated in that great struggle
were young and vigorous, but are
now old and feeble. They are fast
passing away. in a few more
years there will be no more reuni
ons and none to answer roll call.
These noble old heroes deserve to
live in the memory of every lover
of liberty. They fought in defense
| of constitutional government, and
not one of them should be allowed
to pass away without having his
name placed on the record of hon
or." The list seems unusually
long this month, and contains some
\v ell- kn o w n n ames.
An exchange says that at this
day and time when a man wants
to economize the first thing he
does is to stop his county paper,
1 the next to take his children from
school and the next to quit paying
the preacher, and then imagines
that he is practicing economy,
(treat economy this is, isn't it?
Kill off the preacher, the teacher
and the newspaper, the three
great factors in the intellectual
and moral life of any community,
and then imagine that such policy
is economy.

"Heroic Service at Baton
Rouge” is a most thrilling account
of one of the most brilliant events
in the War between the States,and
I the story is well told by Col. V.
V. Cook, of Elmo, who contributes
the article to the Confederate Vet
. eran for January, and who also
| sends a group picture of “the
three brave men who burned the
i Federal cantonments at Baton
Rouge, La., August 5, 1862.”
Col. took says: "Had they (the
Federals) known that the burning
| was the work of only three men,
land that (ien. Breckinridge with
his army had retired out of the
range of their death-dealing mis
siles, they would soon have routed
I
these three Confederates.” The
story carries the reader’s atten
tion, and his only regret is that
there is not more of it, told in the
same graphic style.

Russellville yesterday to discuss
the situation as to cotton and
