The most pitiful thing is that same baby, thin and in pain. The dimples and joy have gone, and left hollows and fear. It is fat that is gone; gone with it, comfort and color and curve ; all but pity and love. The little one gets no fat from her food : has had none for weeks : she is . living, on what she had stored in that plump little body of hers. She is starving for fat ;' it is death ; be quick 1 Scott's emulsion of cod-liver oil is the at she can take. It will save her. Wt'll tend yoa a little to try if yoa like. SCOTT &B0WNE, 409 Pearl ttreet, New York, sn ot tne toriiico:nng armv order tl .lt nil oilyers sh.ill dress in u.iiform in:-i-a 1 of mufti in public, just like privates. This is the great topic of conversa tion In smart ss.-!ety at present. The order comts into force In April 2. It ordains that all army officers wear their uniforms in public aiut at theaters and places of entertainment as well. This appii.s t-1 ill household regiments, ft. 'uguards and ,-avalry. It cannot be sail that this order is at all popular. It Is generally thought that it has been Drought about by the instigation of th? kaiser, when he was over here. It do.s not mean, of course, that the officers will always have to appear in scarlrt or will have to wear their long LralJel frock coats and neaked cap?. It is unilerstool that the whole thing is supposed, to be an incentive to re cru'l'nff. Eirl Roberts and the king have had many long discussions on the subject. PREAKEP.

Clos observers of the scenes In the mining exchange assert that there Is no sr.cul.'itlv mov-m-nt but merely a better feeling among Investors In England and on the continent so thU shares are In gr'-ater d-mand and prices are gradually going upward. Or ders have come In from France, fj.-r-many, Canada and els-where, and there Is evidence thaf 'he South African ln V'Stom are convinced that the end of the war Is close and that a speedy re vival of the mining Industry may b expected. The day and the hour when the sur render occurs have been mentioned with such precision that It Is suspected that negotiations for th submission of the Boer general have ben in progr.-ns and that the time and place have been agreed upon. South Africans In Lon don have contended for weeks that Botha was only holding out on a point of honor, and would abandon the hope less conflict whenever De Wet wan cap tured. De Wet's own plight could hard ly be worse. Only a small portion of the remnant of his force has crossed the Orange river, and his own passage with Steyn is now contradicted.
