BOTH FOOD
 AND MEDICINE

We like best to call Scott's Emulsion a food-medicine. It is a term that aptly describes the character and action of our Emulsion. More than a medicine-more than a food, yet combining the vital prin- ciples of both. It is for this reason that Scott's Emulsion has a distinct and special value in all wasting diseases. There is nothing better to remedy the troubles of im- perfect growth and delicate health in children. The action of Scott's Emulsion is just as effective in treating weak ness and wasting in adults.

FEWER BEGGARS SEEN.
Shoppers This Year Not Annoyed by Them as They Have Been in the Past.

There have been fewer beggars on the streets of Birmingham during the holl- days this year than ever before. The orders of the Mayor and chief of police that the streets be kept clear had the effect of keeping many of the transient beggars away from Birmingham.
 Only once or twice during the holidays were beggars noticeable and they did not remain long. In years past the number has been large and the beggars were per sistent. Frequently they occupied seV- eral feet of the pavement in their efforts to attract attention. and at times mater ially blocked the sidewalk and made 1t inconvenient for people to pass.
