GROWING UP There's something the mat ter with the child that fails to grow up. A child that grows up too much, however, without proper filling out of flesh, is' almost as badly off. Nothing will help these pale, thin "weedy" children like Scott's Emulsion. It supplies the rounding out of flesh and the rich inward nourishment of blood and vital organs which insures rapid growth a healthy and uniform development.

Mr. S. ('. T. Docld, general counsel of tho Standard Oil Company, ban elab orated this defence. Mr. Dodd, who wns n furious nntl-mouopolUt before entering the Standard Oil Service, and Insisted that tho hole rebate system was illegal, now holds that it was nil right until tho passage of tho inter sjuto commerce law in 1837, since which time he aborts that the trust has cut loose from it. o Idea of tho Standard Oil's de fenders soems to bo thnt all tho popu Tar hostility to Mr. Itookefeller I based upon tho fact that in the dnya whou tho rallrond business wns n free-for-all scramble he made good bargains for tho transportation of his product.
