Open Day and Night 33 SOUTH ST., FERRELL. SHVED UP LIFE —That’s what a prominent druggist said of Scott’s Emulsion a short time ago. As a rule, we don’t use or refer to testimonials in addressing the public, but the above remark and similar expressions are made so often in connection with Scott’s Emulsion that they are worthy of occasional note. From infancy to old age, Scott’s Emulsion offers a reliable means of remedying improper and weak development, restoring lost flesh and vitality, and repairing waste. The action of Scott’s Emulsion is no more of a secret than the composition of the Emulsion itself. What it does, it does through nourishment—the kind of nourishment that cannot be obtained in ordinary food. No system is too weak or delicate to retain Scott’s Emulsion and gather good from it. We will send you a sample free. Be sure that this picture in the form of a label is on the wrapper of every bottle of Emulsion you buy. SCOTT & BOWNE Chemists 409 Pearl St., N.

HADLEY TO CONTINUE FIGHT Missouri Attorney General Declares Rogers Must Answer All Questions, According to Federal Supreme Court Decision—Former Trust Employee Tells of Company's Methods. Kansas City. Mo., March 14.—Fol lowing the decisions of the United States supreme court that officials of corporations can he forced to produce incriminating evidence against their corporations, the Standard Oil compa ny came out with a defiant1!*. It was contained in a notification sent to Herbert S. Hadley, attorney general of Missouri, by Alfred I>. Ed dy of Chicago, general western attor ney for tlie Standard Oil company. Mr. Eddy notified Mr. Hadley that the l Standard Oil company will give to the attorney general no more information in his suit to oust the Standard Oil and its allied companies from Missouri than it is compelled to. Mr. Hadley's reply was: "The decisions of the United States supreme court sustain my contentions , in the Standard Oil cases, and now j Henry H. Rogers must answer all my j questions.” Said Standard Men Would Talk. Attorney General Hadley, discussing j the Standard Oil’s position, said: “A week ago when the testimony of j H. Clay Pierce was to have been taken ; in St. Louis Mr. Eddy stated to me there would he no further resistance ! on the part of the witnesses already j subpoenaed in New York to answering | questions they had previously refused to answer. 1 then suggested to Mr. Eddy that if lie would produce H. M. anti \Y. H. Tilford and M. Van Beuren before Commissioner Sanborn in New York on March 24 I would not as a i matter of convenience die an applica- j tion in the supreme court to bring | tlietn to Missouri, “Mr. Eddy promised to give an an swer to this suggestion as soon as he. Could consult his clients in New York. He has informed me that he did not feel authorized to make this arrangement. Consequently, if service on them is not secured at the time the taking of depositions is resumed in New York, I will apply to the supreme court for an order to compel their appearance in Missouri. Still Hunting Rockefeller. "What about John L. Rockefeller? Was there any discussion pertaining to him?" Mr. Hadley was asked. "The question of subpoenaing John L. Rockefeller did not enter into the discussion with Mr. Eddy. We have been and are still endeavoring to secure service on him." Revelations of a "spy" system maintained by Standard Oil to throttle competition were made at the investigation of the interstate commerce commission into charges of discrimination in railway rates on oil, filed by the Kansas Oil Producers’ association. E. D. Wilcox, now an independent dealer, but formerly an agent for Standard Oil at Topeka, said that Standard Oil, by keeping track of shipments, knows the names of all dealers who buy from independents. In this way, while a Standard Oil agent, he went to each purchaser and either tied him up to Standard with a contract or cut the price so that he lost money on oil received from independent refiners. Depew Reported III. New York, March 14.—In such a condition that his seclusion was decided upon by his physicians, says the Herald. Senator Chauncey M. Leew will be unable to see his friends or resume his duties for an indefinite period. His family professes the belief that he will be about to attain in another fortnight, but it is more than probable that the "rest cure" he is now taking will last well into the spring, after which he will go abroad, where his wife now is, without reappearing in the senate or at his local business offices. He is at the country home of a friend. Half Fare For School Children. Albany, N.Y., March 14.—Attorney General Mayer in an opinion submitted at the request of the assembly committee on railroads declared that the Hartman bill providing for half fares for school children and students on street railways in the city of New York during school hours was constitutional. The bill will therefore probably be reported favorably by the committee. Tablet to Lincoln’s Memory. Frankfort, Ky., March 14.—The state senate concurred in a house bill appropriating $200 for a tablet at Hoddensville to the memory of Abraham Lincoln. Hodgensville is the county seat of the county in which Lincoln was born and was the scene of his boyhood days. The governor has approved the bill. Honor For Revolutionary General.
