For restoring appetite, health and
strength in sickly children, mothers will
tind Milks Emulsion the thing they have
always sought. Most children like to
take it, because unlike many emulsions
and tonics, it really tastes good.

doing away with all need of pills and
physics. It promotes appetite and
nuickly puts the digestive organs in
shape to assimilate food. As a builder
of flesh and strength. Milks Emulsion
is strongly recommended to those whom
sickness has weakened, and is a pow
erful aid in resisting and repairing the
effects of wasting diseases. Chronic
stomach trouble and constipation are
promptly relieved.
This is the only solid emulsion made,
and so palatable that it is eaten with a
spoon like ice cream.
No matter how severe your case, you
arc urged to try Milks Emulsion under
t his guarantee Take six bottles home
with you, use it according to direc
tions and If not satisfied with the re
sults, your money will be promptly re
funded, rice TTte and $l.r0 per bottle. The

Radio Big Aid In
Detecting Crime
Xew York. A potentially omnis
cient recruit has been added to the
detective force of the New Tork pol
ice department wireless telegraphy
Through this "rooky" for it is ad
mittedly in the experimental stage.
the atmosphere in a 300-mile radius
is literally suffeed with police
alarms concerning stolen automobiles
and other suspected criminality, it
was announced today. Messages of
this sort are flashed broadcast every
night between the hours of 7.30 and
11.30, but the station atop police
headquarters is kept open constant
ly to receive messages from other
points.
The effectiveness of the radio as a
detective agency is limited only in the
lack of co-operation, so far, of police
departments of other cities; although
officers in charge of the station here
said they are receiving admirable co
operation by amateur operators with
in their receiving radius. Heading
the messages sent out every night is
a request that all amateurs hearing
I the alarms copy them and deliver
their contents to their respective po
lice departments. In the case of
stolen automobiles, a brief descrip
tion is given, including the. make of
car, the license number and the mo
tor number.
Police Sergeant Charles E. Pearce,
who originated the use of the radio
for detective purposes, said there was
no limit to its effectiveeness if other
police departments will install simi
lar stations. Although good results
have been attained through the ama
teurs, there, are several elements in
that method that hinder the work, he
said. Aside from hawing to depend
upon the honesty and zeal of the
amateurs, they usually operate their
stations as an avocation, and their
whims may not always lead them to
listen when messages are being sent.

Countless grave picknosses are rec

flax seed emulsion, Linonine, is most
helpful. Medicine knows no surer
