Wc do not nccd to give all the reasons why Scott's Emulsion restores the strength and flesh and color of good health to those who suffer from sick blood. The fact that it is the best preparation of Cod Liver Oil, rich in nutrition, full of healthy stimulation is a suggestion as to why it does what it does. Scott's Emulsion presents Cod Liver Oil at its best, fullest in. strength, least in taste. Young women in their " teens " are permanently cured of the peculiar disease of the blood which shows itself in palencss.weakncss and nervous ness, by regular treatment with Scott's Emulsion. It is a true blood food and is naturally adapted to the cure of the blood sickness from which so many young women suffer. Vc will t j(M (e mh4 umple to any iirffero. Senator Dietrich has given out a statement in regard to the Hastings postoillco affair which has the ring of truth and which, if substantiated in court, will oxonorato him from the chargo of bribery uow hanging over him. Ho admits that D. E. Thompson was allowed to control a number of appointments, but assorts there was no agroomeut betwoon Thompson and himself in regard to appoints prior lo his election as sonutor His indorse ment of Fishor for tho appointment of postmaster at Hastings dates back to the timo when ho was governor. Tho Nation is going after tho city administration with a sharp stick, and hints at mismanagement of tho city's tinancos. It docs look as though tho tax rate Is abnormally high, In view of tho very limited public improvo monts, but tho present deplorable condition of tho oity's financial affairs is 'the result of a sorios of blunders of former administrations. There aro always plonty of pooplo ready to criti cise the doings of public officials, but when they aro askod to suggest a rem edy for existing evils they aro nevor able to point "the way out." The greatest drain on the city's fluances in recent years has beon the water works system, but no one scorns to be able to suggest a practicable plm for placing it on a solf-sustuining basis The columns of The Chief aro open to anyone who thinks ho can form a plan wheroby tho water works may be kopt running and tho other obliga tions of the citv met, and at tho sam tlmo keop tho tax levy down to the legal limit. It is tho opportunity of a lifetime for tho man of brains. Twr Wife and Your Poekctboek Tiie season is coming near when wo aro supposed to thaw out a l ttle.

Chemist, 409 Pud St, New York. You will haston rocovory by tuk Inpc ono of Ayer's plila at bccltlmo. bo a sot of furs for tho wifo (who has nooded thorn Hvo years), a dollar pipe for a f rlond, who you know will give you a dollar's worth of something in honest oxchaugo; and this you call Christmas giving. You think you have properly thawed out. But you havon't. No, bloss you, the genial warmth of the true Christmas spirit hasn't thawed through even the frost rind on your heart. If you want to have tho satisfaction of realizing what it moans to thaw out cloar through, and yet cannot separ ate tho Christmas idea from money, turn your pocketbook over to your wife for tho noxt two wooks. Mako a mighty sacritlco for just tho onco. It may enablo hor to liavo tho hap piest Christmas sho has had sinco she married you. And you, if you won't learn how to givo, may ut least learn how to rocolvo. You would havo-dono it onco. Thoro was a timo when lovo for her mellowed your hoart and you wished you had tho wholo world to lay ut hor feet. You said a lot of such stuff and meant It You havo forgotten, but sho hasn't. A woman nover forgots such things. Sho has obsorvod, of courso, that the little portion of the world which you have manogod to make your own is not lylu,' at hor foot, but Is jammed into Into your own pockot, with your hand always on It. JIt's yours, you think just as sho '.is. Possession mukes a big difference. Truo, you'ro a good follow. You menu well, but you moan to bo the main thing yourself don't you? If any mau wore to toll you that you act tho brute uud tho bully toward tho pationt woman who has brought you niuo-tcnths of your joys and shared all your sorrows, aud whom you lovo noxt to your monoy, you would got florco I about it. But in strict contldonco now, be tween you aud your conscience, don't you swell up to think that you'ro tho boss, that a look from you is u com mand to her, that she must beg of you piecemeal what you promised to lay at hor feet? You know you don't treat her as well as you did the day sho was your bride. You lied to her. You'ro a bully toward hor every day. You (ion i no a louiu lor nor that you oughl to. And if you'ro any man at all you know it. Sho asks you now for money to get Christmas gifts for tho children asks you apologetically, as sho must, and maybo aftor long waiting to catch you in a good humor. You crouch aud growl and sneer: "Much good did these knickuacks over do anybody!" You forget your own childhood; yes, you forget your manhood, too. You givo hor something, of courso you'ro a good follow but tho thing you givo her Is ono part money aud ulno parts heartach". And you think you've thawed out! Of courso you know your own busl ne.ss. You havo expenses to be mot; you havo debts to bo paid and there's little money left. That's good busl uess heuse. But don't forgot that your biggest debt is to tho patient woman who lias consigned to you oil that Is nearest lo your happiness and has trusted you far beyond your rating lu Bradstrcet's or nnywhoro else. Pay your debts, of course. Out make her a preferred creditor. Integrity It be gins in justice to her. True, you havo given her n nice home; you dross her good enough; you provide well for her yes, you treat hor as well as you do your horse. But do you think she ought to bo content with that? Don't you know she has a soul tiiat needs nourishment? Bo sordid and tyrannical aud grum py toward hor all tlio rest of tlio year, if you must be, but for tlio next two weeks thaw out that muscular pump In your left breast aud see if it is still a heart. See if a little kindness and affection aud self-deulal can (low from it. Bo a bridegroom to hor again for a little while. See if you can't bring tlio almost for gotten blush of happiness back into tier check aud tiio old laugh to her lips. You havo grubbed and scraped to gether a lot of trash that you call your fortune, but do not enjoy. You know in your heart that tlio glint and glitter of success holds nothing for you half so sweet as tho simple happiness of honeymoon, when you hnd nothing but her and she had nothing but you and your promises, that you haveu't made good. Fill your pocketbook full of tho trabh you havo sweat for and sacrificed hor for, give It to hor to buy Christmas gifts, and learn for trie first timo what it is all good for. 100 850 Real Estate Trawlers.
