THE COLUMBIAN,
The Tissot Pictures
Everybody know or ought to know
! what the Tissot pictuies are, as they
have become the most famous works
of art of this country. They represent
the life of Christ, a subject which is of
' mort general interest than any other,
I and they are the only pictures that
have ever been painted which as neariy
represent the actual scenes of the
gospel as they can be reproduced.
The great artist, Ti'ssot, spent ten
years in the Holy Land, making a
study of the localities mentioned in
the gospel narrative and of everything
that would throw light upon it. Then !
he painted his series of pictures, which
at once were pronounced a triumph of
art. To see them is almost' equiv
alent to a trip to Palestine, as they so
truthfully represent scenery, architcct-
j ure, customs, an 1 everything they in-
1 1...1.. 'f 1 j a.i "1
nunc. 1 nese wonoenui pictures nave
been reproduced under the supervision
of the artist himself so as to be thrown
upon canvass with a Parisian electrical
appratus, and are shown in their origi
nal colors. To view them in this
manner is almost equal to a visit to
one of the royal art galleries of Europe.
They will be exhibited in the spcious
auditorium of the M. E. church of
Bloomsburg on Friday evening, Nov.
16th, accompanied by an instructive
lecture by Prof. Welham Clarke, ori
ental traveler of the Royal Polytechnic
institute ot London. Admission 25
cents; reserved seats 35 cents. Tins
will be without doubt the most unique
and instructive entertainment given in
Bloomsburg this season. "All people
love pictures, and the more than 100
real works of art which will be exhib
ited on this occasion are pictures
which will live in the memory ever
after. Reserved seats can be had at
Wesley Moy cr's news depot, next door
to the post office.

Hard Law For Farmers.
The Hazleton Sentinel says the
farmers in that vicinity are consider
ably alarmed over the intentions of
the Pure Food Department officials
to enforce the law of 1897 relating to
the making of vinegar.
Unless their vinegar contains a cer
tain percentage of acidity and of vine
gar solids upon full evaporation, the
law orders the State to confiscate it,
and the farmer can be fined or im
prisoned or both. The farmers say
that in order to comply with such a
law they must have a knowledge of
chemistry and that, sooner than take
anv risk, they will quit making vine
gar for sale. They say vinegar as us
ually made on the tarm is absolutely
pure, havingmothing in it but apple
juice and water, yet such vinegar has
occasionally not come up to the stand
ard required by the act. With only a
few barrells to sell, the average farmer
cannot afford to have a chemist make
a test.
The undersigned is prepared to fill
orders, for photographic views of
houses, street views, etc., in B'.ooms-
burg at low rates. Pictures 4x5 at
$1.50 a dozen.

"Look nt t.hla handkerchief," imid ft

worth its weight In pold to me."
"Some connection wiUi old iiKsoeia
tions a mere sentiment, 1 suppose,"
suggested the professionnl mnn, re
lates the Memphis Sciinetnr.
"Nothing of the kind. From a prac
tical standpoint it is just ns valuable
oh I describe it to be. A sentiment en
ters into the case, however."
"Well, tell us about it."
"The handkerchief, then, is the token
by which I am permitted to enter the
house where my sweetheart lives.
Without it I should be torn to pieces
by a huge bulldog there. The beast
is as ferocious as n tiger. During the
day he is kept in chains, but after seven
o'clock in the evening his mistress re
leases him in the yard. No stranger
after that hour can enter the rate. The
terrible animal was a menace to my
suit until the lady hit upon the plan
of giving me her handkerchief for use
as a pass. Now, when the dog rushes
toward me I have only to toss the
dainty token to him; he smells it and
walks peacefully back to his kennel.
Do you blame me for valuing it so
highly?"

Babies and children need
proper food, rarely ever medi
cine. If they do not thrive
cn their food something is
wrong. They need a little
hc!p to get their digestive
machinery working properly.
COD LIVER OIL

will generally correct this
difficulty.
If you will put from one
fourth to half a teaspoonful
in baby's bottle three or four
times a day you will soon see
a marked improvement. For
larger children, from half to
a teaspoonful, according to
age, dissolved in their, milk,
if you so desire, will very
scon show its great nourish
ing power. If the mother's
milk does not nourish the
baby, she needs the emul
sion. It will show an effect
at once both upon mother
and child.
