Instead of cruelty, the duck suggests to every mind tho 1-eavon-lv odors of parsley, garlic and on ions.

It was on the occasion when General Scott received tho support of his delegates In 1852 for tho presi dency, when a dologatlon of his fol lowers called to explain.

Ho said: "Gontlomcn: Mv nniili.. nc, iu oi nou. i Ko to Mnrshllold to sleep with my fathers, carrying with me tho consciousness of duty doue.
