JUBILEE BIFTS FOR EXPOSITION Presents to Victoria to Be King's Personal Contribution. —_—— Edward VII Receives Francis and Promises His Cor- dial Support. AT LONDON, Feb* 25.—King Edward will send the late Queen Victoria's priceless collection of jubilee presents for exhibi- tior. at the St. Louis Louistana Purchase Exposition as his personal contribution teward the success of the exposition. The King personally announced this de- cision to-day to D. R. Francis, president of the St. Louis Exposition, who, accom- ried by Embassador Choate, was re- ceived in -audience by his Majesty at Buckingham Palace this morning. King Fdward told Mr. Francis that he had been prompted to take this step by his | kcen appreciation of the affection and | respect in which the American people ai vays held his mother and as a token of his intimate sympathy with American in | terests. His Majesty said that he thought | nothing probably would be more appre- American and Canadian ated by the this national memento of Queen Victo- 11a’s reign. Mr. Francis on behalf of th position cxpressed his thanks to King idward for the promised exhibit. The King was most cordlal to Francia and evinced much int in the exposition. Mr. Francis twas more than satiefled with the King's ble influence to- ull representation Louts.

The King has aiready read 2 great deal regarding the exposition and Mr. Francis found him to be not only an Interested listener, but an | intel'igent questioner. In the scope of the German exhibit the King showed partie vlar curiosity. He did not refer to any probability of the Prinee of Wales visit- ing St. Louig, but assured Mr. icpresented.

SCROFULA Bad air, poor food, insufficient clothing, dark, damp or crowded apartments are frequent causes of scrofula. Perhaps this explains why the ailment is so common in the poorer sections of large eities. It is but a step from scrofula to consumption and herein lies the great danger. It is just as well to avoid the step. ! Scott’s Emulsion contains the very things that nature requires in curing scrofula. The pure Norwegian cod liver oil helps to build up the whole body and enables one to acquire new, healthy, solid flesh: The hypophosphites of lime and soda act as a tonic, replacing the waste and giving strength and new structure where it is most needed. There 1s nothing that will do more good in the case of scrofula than Scott’s Emulsion. ' We'll send you a sample free upon request.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.—According to United States Consul McWade at Can- ton. it has remained for an American physician, Dr. Adolph Razlag. to discover a means of curing and exterminating lep- rosy. «In a report to the State Depart- ment the Consul says that wonderful suc- | cess has attended the efforts of this phy- sician and his work has attracted the attention of the highest Manchu and Chi- nese officials. This work began in June, 1902, in a leper village si. from Canton. Of four ca have been discharged completely and the last is making a practical re- covery. The physician urges strongly the adoption of his methods for the treatment of lepers in the Philippines and in Ha- waii.

SHORT STORY WRITER DIES OF SCARLET FEVER Friends Attribute Fatal Result to Re- striction of Diet to Uncooked Food CHICAGO, Feb. %5.—The funeral of Miss Cora Dean, better known as ‘“Coradine,” who had achieved renown as a_ writer of short stories, occurred to-day. Miss Dean died yesterday of scarlet fever after an illness of a week. The fact that the young authoress had restricted her diet for some time to un- cooked foods and was accustomed to omit the morning meal in pursuance of a svs- tem exploited by a local physician is be- lieved by the friends of Miss Dean to have rendered her peculiarly susceptible to the disease which caused her death ani ranteed by the Fed- these practices. terred on Sunday. s s s Woman Shot by Blind Man Dies.
