KENTUCKY EXHIBIT
At ST. Louis Worlds Fair...Jef.
fsrson County Gives S., 1000.

The Fiscal court Of Jefferson
county has appropriated $1,000 TO-
ward the fund for a Kentucky
building and exhibit Of the states
resources and products at the
Worlds Fair next year. This &C
ton was taken unanimously at the
meeting Of the body in Louisville
on Febrr airy 3D.. A delegation
from the Kentucky Exhibit Asso-
citation appeared before the court
and explained the objects of the
association. When one of the
magistrates asked how muoh that
body would be expected to give,
it was stated that, in the opinion
of the delegation, $1,000 would be
little enough. A member Of the
court Immediately moved an APP
preparation of $1,000 and without
argument this sum was voted.
On the same day the Fiscal
court of Carroll county appropri-
ated 5000 for the same purpose.
The matter of asking other Fiscal
courts to take a similar step is
now under consideration by mum
Der of auxiliaries of the Kentucky
Exhibit Association in different
parts of the State. The plan II
raising a part Of the 100000 fund
in this manner was first suggested
to President A. Y. Ford of the
Association by several county judi
ges, and wherever the proposition
has been made il has met hearty
endorsement. In several counties
the matter will be brought up a

courts.

mercifully relieved her from her

failed to have any effect on the
woman.

YOUNG Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out Of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
Of food, but because the food
does not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion reallyfeeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause Of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsion seems to find
it and set the matter right.
