A PERFECT FOOD.

That SCOTS Emulsion
should act so quickly and
satisfactorily in all cases
of lost flesh and continued
wasting is not surprising
when its food value is un-
derstood. With pure Nor
wegian cod liver oil, hypo-
phosphites of lime and
soda and glycerine. there
is combined in SCOTS
Emulsion the best ele-
ments of nourishment and
strength building known
to medical science. Any
physician will tell you this.
The use of these ingredi-
ents in the proper proper
tons; the employment of
only the purest grade of
each, and to combine them
perfectly is the secret of
the success of SCOTS
Emulsion. You will not
find a more certain way to
stop waste, build flesh and
strength and supply nour-
ishment than through
SCOTS Emulsion.

UP-To-DATE SMALL HOUSES

J. Louis Wfllige. of Willige. Gibbs s
Daniel. real estate brokers. speaking
yesterday OF the present condition of the
local real estate market, said:
las the fall season progresses. there
is steadily increasing demand for the
higher-priced properties. ranging in
value from $4,000 to $25.OoO. the large
majority OF prospective purchasers for
such houses having returned to the
city. Our company has noticed this de-
mand particularly in Washington
Heights. where. during the past few
days. We have disposed OF five attractive
residences in Baltimore street. aRgre-
eating fifty odd thousand dollars in
value
The number of larger houses in the
fashionable suburbs has been so consid-
erably reduced by recent sales OF local
brokers that there is a prospect of a
decided scarcity of properties of this
character during the remainder of the
season Nor is there likelihood that
there wiz be an available supply OF
high-priced houses for the spring
market. since builders are unable to
secure desirably located ground at a
figure which viii permit the construction
of homes within the reach Of the great
body of intending buyers with the pre-
vailing prices Of building material.
Houses Easily Sold.
One of the conspicuous results of
this state Of things is the celebrity with
which larger houses with completely
modern appointments are bought up
when offered at a fair price. The only
reason that more of these larger houses
are not sold is that they are not .er-
tirely modern IN their arrangements and
heating facilities. Many of them are
unstable. for example, on account OF
having basement kitchens, instead Of
kitchens located on the maiIrsfv floor.
Ihere IS continuing demand for
smaller dwellings situated within con
venient reach of the car lines. I refer

offered on a reasonable cash payment

especially attractive TO men of family
with moderate salary. They are so cIev-
erly appointed that they offer a strong
incentive to the buyer to dispose Of the
