GROWING
LENGTHWISE
You want the children to
qrow, but not all lengthwise.
When they start that way
Scott's Emulsion will help
them to grow right with
due plumpness and outward
proportion, and with inward
vigor and good spirits.
The Emulsion increases
digestive power and strength
ens the vital organs to get
the best and make the most
out of all the other food. It
gives a kind of help that every
growing child ought to have.
We'll send you a sample Iree upon request.

Barring tho dreadful stampede,
which good judgment could avoid and
tho occasional charge of an enraged
bull to escape his tormentors, or
some fretted cow lo protect her calf,
tho Idlllng of buffaloes was a sport
without peril, and a business void of
hazardous Incident, carried on with
such ruthless, wasteful and unnecos-1
sary destruction that tho memory of
It excites pity, Indignation and dls-1
gust of the present generation. I
In KausaH alone between 1808
and 1881, $25,000,000 was paid out i
for bones gathered on tho prairies
and sold to bo utilized In various
carbon worlis. It took 100 carcass
es to mal.o one ton of bones, tho j
price of which was $8, So this vai)t
sum represents 31,000.000 buffalo, or
moro than onc-half of tho total num
ber of all tho cattlo in tho wholo
United States In 1U02,
On tho Santa Fo trail and miles
