Reasons Why the Hobson Has Got So
 Rapidly to the Front.

No restaurant or cafe ever opened in Birmingham has come so rapidly to the front as the Hobson. in Twentieth street, opposite the Metropolitan Hotel The Hob- son Cafe was established only last fall but today it enjoys a run of first class patronage that would be remarked in the oldest and best known of them It is open all day and all night. It's cuisine is strictly first class and 80 is its service.
 One reason the Hobson Is so popular Is the moderate prices 1t charges. You can get a nice breakfast. dinner or sup per for 15 cents, and splendid breakfast. dinner or supper for 25 cents. Lunches, .snacks and meals to order are on tho same moderate scale. For elegant service and low price combined no restaurant in the South can equal the Hobson. It is popular with ladies as well as gentlemen Many of the most prominent business and professional men of the city are seen there every day. It is favorite place for clerks. Its low prices in fact fetch all who have to practice economy.
 Balabanos Brothers, the polite and at- tentfve proprietors of the Hobson, are being constantly congratulated by their friends and patrons for keeping up their place to the same high standard fixed for it at the start. sss

GLUTOMY

Is more common than we may think, If we define gluttony as eating beyond the body's need of sustenance and beyond the stomach's capacity for digestion and assimilation of food. That is a fair definition, and 1t fastens the name glut- ton on many person who would resent the term as an insult The fact of this giutton, is marked by it's consequences. The overloaded stomach becomes dis eased. The popular term for the condi- ton Is uweak D stomach. The wweak !" stomach fails in furnishing adequate nu- triton for the body, and soon the "weak- ness spreads from the stomach to other organs.
 Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. It enables the perfect assimilation of food. by which alone the health and strength of the body is maintained.
