Discovery is all that is claimed for it; it
never fails, and is a sure cure for Con
sumption, Coughs, and Colds. I cannot
say enough for its merits." Dr. King's
New Discovery for' Consumption,
Coughs and Colds is not an experiment.
It has been tried for a quarter of a cen

General Debility
and Loss of Flesh
Scott's Emulsion has been the
standard remedy for nearly a
quarter of a century. Physicians
readily admit that they obtain re
sults from it that they cannot get
from any other flesh-forming food.
There are many other prepara
tions on the market that pretend
to do what
SGOTT'C
EfJ7ULSiOJ
does, but they fail to perform it.
The pure Norwegian Cod-liver Oil
made into a delightful cream, skill
fully blended with the Hypophos-
ihites of Lime and boda, which
are such valuable tonics,
makes this preparation an
ideal one and checks the
wasting tendency, and the
atient almost immediate
y commences to put on
flesh and gain a strength
which surprises them
Be sure you get SCOTT'S Emulsion. See that the
man and fish are on the wrapper.

GREAT UMBRELLA AT OMAHA.
Novel , Mechanical Device at the
Tranamlsalaslppi Expoaitlon.
The last Paris exposition had its Eiffel
tower, Chicago had its Ferris -wheel,
Nashville has its gig-antie seesaw. The
department of concessions of the Omaha
trans-Mississippi exposition of 1898 has
also received application for space. for
the erection of a novel mechanical de
vice. It resembles the framework of a
gigantic umbrella more than anything
Ise which might be mentioned. The
part corresponding to the stick of the
umbrella in an immense cylinder, 30
eet in diameter, constructed of steel
plates firmly riveted, making a stand
pipe which rears its head 250 feet above
the level of the ground. At the extreme
top of this cylinder are fastened 12
long arms, resembling the ribs of an
umbrella. These are steel trusses,
reaching almost to the ground. At the
lower end of each of these ribs is sus
pended a car for carrying passengers,
each car having a capacity for 20 per
sons. These monster ribs are raised by hv-
aulic power, acting by means of
steel cables operating through the cyl-
der, aided hy a mechanism . greatly
resembling that portion of an umbrella
which, comes, into action when the um
brella is opened. By means of this
mechanism the gigantic arms are raised
until they are horizontal, the cars in
the meanwhile being carried outward
and upward until they reach a point
250 feet above the ground. The diame
ter of the huge circte formed by the
suspended cars is 'also 250 feet. When
the highest point l7as been reached
another mechanism ccmes into play
and the suspended cars are . swung
slowly around in a circle, after which
they are lowered to thn ground. The
sides of the carp are of glass, so that
the passengers may secure an exten
sive view of the surrounding country.

SNAKES PLAN A R03EERY.
An Insertions Arrunemcnt ivy Which
Bank Swallowi Were to Be Caufirlit.
A number of Baltimore naturalists
had an unique experience the other day
while on an ornithological excursion.
They were searching for bank swal
lows in the neighborhood ofTolches
ter beach, about a mile from the pier
where the excursion boats land."
The nests of bank swallows are built
in holes in perpendicular banks, gen
erally in colonics, dozens of holes be
ing only a few inches apart.. The bak
the young men were exploring was
about 30 feet in height, with the nests
averaging seven feet from the top. The
bank was almost perpendicular . and
the nests were reached b3- means of
ladders constructed of trees.
One of the naturalists, after work
ing for some time at one of the nests,
felt his hand come in contact with
some thing unusual. , Drawing out his
hand and looking into the hole he was
surprised to find, coiled down at the
bottom a huge blacksnake, which, after
being gotten out and killed, proved to
be nearly seven feet in length.
Afterward two other snakes, equally
as longi were found in different holes.
The surface of the bank was perfectly
smooth, so the onl3" possible way for
the snakes to have reached the nests
was to have let themselves down from
some short overhanging roots at the top
of the bank.
The snakes seemed to have worked
along the bank from nest to nest, as
several nests were-found in which were
eggs that had been emptied of their
contents. In a nest with one of the
snakes was a bird which had been late
ly killed, and which the snake evident
ly was about to devour when its own
end came.
The naturalists said they had been
collectiug eggs for many years,- but
had never before seen anything so like
a well-planned attack of snakes upon
birds eggs. Baltimore Sun. .
