When the children are hungry, what do you give them? Food.

When thirsty? Water. Now use the same good common sense, and what would you give them when they are too thin? The best fat-forming food, of course. Somehow you think of Scott’s Emulsion at once. For a quarter of a century it has been making thin children, plump; weak child- ren, strong; sick children, healthy.

The Actor's Card,

“[ showed them my card at the door,” the actor was complaining, “and they referred me to the manager. And what do you suppose he said? He said he was sorry, but the demand for seats had been so great that he had decided to discontinue the professional free list.”

“Well,” said his friend the sharper, “did you expect to beat a full house with a single card?’—New York Com- mercial Advertiser.

A Literary Note.

The denizens of the forest were or- ganizing a literary club.

“We must make the porcupine pres!- dent,” said Br’er Wolf. “His style is full of good points.”

“Permit me,” remarked Br’er Rabbit, “to recommend a reptile friend of mise. Hecan put up a rattling tail.”— Catholic Standard angi Times.

It Paid to Be Cheerful,

A manufacturer of Kensington tells this true tale: “Fifteen years ago I was very rich, but ten years ago there came a time when it seemed that I'd surely fall. One day when a smash appeared a certainty I walked down Chestnut street toward the wool ware- houses, blue, blue as indige, but I braced up and put on a cheerful air. Just then a man I knew came in and said:

“Say, Bill, what makes you always look so cheerful? Don’t you ever have any trouble at all?

““Oh, yes,’ said I, jollying a little; ‘but toe look blue doesn’t do any good,’ ete.

“*Well,’ this fellow said, ‘TT tell you what I’m going to do. I've got $25,000 lying idle, and I’m going to get you te invest it for me. You're so well off, so lucky in business always, and 30 blamed cheerful, I’m sure nothing ever fails with you, and I want you to in- vest this money ary way you please, and I won’t even ask you how you did invest {t.’

“Well, I took this man’s money. It was just the amount my tcttering busl- ness needed. A year later times and prices were vastly better, and I paid the $25,000 back with interest at—what do you think?—9 per cent.”—Philadel- phia Record.
