Sick
Blood

Feed pale girls on SCOTS
Emulsion.
: We do not need to give all
the reasons why SCOTS
Emulsion restores the strength
and flesh and color of good
health to those who suffer
from sick blood.
The fact, that it is the best
preparation of Cod Liver Oil,
rich in nutrition, full of healthy
stimulation is a suggestion as
to why it does what it does.
Scott's Emulsion presents
Cod Liver Oil at its best,
fullest in strength, least in
taste.
Young women in their
teens are permanently cured
Of the peculiar disease of the
blood which shows itself in
paleness, weakness and nervous
ness, by regular treatment
with SCOTS Emulsion.
{. 1t is a true blood food and
Is naturally adapted to the cure
of the blood sickness from
which so many young women
s. suffer.

for over five years we have striven to establish in Phoenix and vicinity d good name and a reputation for square and honorable dealing.
 We feel proud of the result.
 Such a reputation is not gained in a day, nor a week, nor a month, but is the result of many years hard work and earnest desire to please.
 We are reaping the reward of our years of patient toll in our ever-in- creasing business. and take this oppor- tunity to thank our friends and patrons one and all.

 AN EXPERIENCED FRCIT MAN The fruit interests of Phoenix and the valley have a new and valuable ac- quisitioI. in the person of Mir. Charles Triolo, recently arrived from Palermo Sicily. For many years MT. Triolo was manager of the green fruit department of Porter Brothers company's Chicago house, where some days thirty and forty carloads of fruit were handled under his supervision. He resigned his position there to join his brother who was. engaged in exporting lemons at Palermo. Sicily. The superior cure and pack of the Triolo Brothers lem ons are known around the world. The large and increasing amount of Cali fornia lemons is gradually driving the Sicily lemons out of the American mar kets and MT. Triolo again returned to America. His long sojourn in a warm climate created desire for a resi- dence in the southwest. Through the efforts of T. w. Pemberton, an old time Chicago friend. MT. Triolo was urged to locate with his family in this city. Walter Hill & Co. have been fortunate in securing his services and MT. Triolo will represent them as city salesman.

ly commencing to lay back for the final
struggle. The votes cast will be an.

all the ballots that have been cast will
be put in the ballot box which will be
sealed by the judges. and during the
last two weeks of the contest the
candidates and their friends can
deposit the ballots in the box
themselves without letting any one
know who they vote for or how many
ballots they cast. This is done to insure
absolute fairness in the contest, which
