or part of the balance of S14OO was raised
on notes by Mr.. Martin. That portion
of the outfit, purchased by Deputy Mar
tin, was finally sold to Henry w. Putnam,
when the note or notes in question were
paid. So much for the $2400 contributed
by Mr.. Martin. Wherein did he do more
than to draw his salary aud use it for his
personal benefit?
We are disposed to give Mr.. Martin
credit for all that belongs to him in the
way Of building up the Office. But in
this he did no more than any one of his
predecessors had done. The increase in
population, the starting up of the Wool
len mill that had lain idle since the death
of the Messrs. Fisher, aud various other
natural causes, each contributed toward
the raising of this post Office to the sec
ond class.
Sd. Now, as to the linen who failed
to remember him at the end of his term
with any token whatever of the favors
he had personally bestowed" The al
lowance is $1400 per year for clerk hire.
One hundred dollars of this goes to Sta
ton A, $500 is the salary of the money
order clerk and 5000 that of the mailing
clerk. Mr.. Martin installed third man,
and made the two lawful clerks "diVy;"
in other words, he divided the $500
equally among three, thus perpetrating
gross injustice. The clerks certainly
had good reason to remember Mr.. Mar
tin, but not in the sense editor Living
ston" puts it. AS for the carriers, we
understand that they did not feel suffi-
GENTLY well acquainted with the Post
master to offer him any token of their
esteem and affection, alleging that most
of his time was spent either in New York,
at Camp Comfort or in lodging cred
itors. If Mr.. Martin deemed third clerk
necessary Zone to represent him during
his absence), why did he not contribute
part of his own salary I? And if he did
not, wherein is he martyr because the
clerks saw fit to recognize the official
who had done them the simple and exact
justice in salary, denied by Mr.. Martin
The truth of the matter is that Editor
Livingston" is out of his depth in argu-
ing Deputy Martins case. He should
confine himself to subjects with which
he is more conVersant; for instance, the
divorce laws of the state of New York,
fancy poultry, and the beneficial effects
of camphor taken in small and frequent
doses. Or he might proftably study the
fate of those like himself who have here.
tofore done exactly as the men who own
his paper desire.

The listers have completed their labors

up. While the total footings have not
been made on the real estate and person

an increase in both during the year, which
considering the depression of the past
twelve months, is something that speaks
well for our town and village. There is
also an increase in the number of polls,
the total for this year being 1923 against
1850 for last year. The divisions are as

social triumphs at Louisville and other cities. During the holidays they will visit not only Birmingham, but Montgomery and Atlanta, and already in Atlanta the de- tails for their reception have, been arranged and they will meet with royal reception in the Gate City.
 The Vanderbilt alumni, among whom are Messrs. John Tomlinson, E. L. Smyer, Ivey Lewis.

 Referring again to the never-ending wo- mau question, have you observed how straight and true the characters of our women appear in the white light of these latter days? The manifold interests of an enlarged sphere have brought them closer together, and in larger numbers than or yore, yet the contrast and the intimate associations have but made prom inent characteristics that call for.h aimiration and praise from men and women alike. Of course we some- times fipd women with small souls and miserable hearts, whose hands are red with the blood of some good woman they have stabbed in the back simply because of envy or malice. But these cowardly deeds bring their own punishment. and the brave, upright women fathom the shallow depths of their evil plaus and know that no gloves can hide the stain on their hands, and the rustic of silken garments cannot deaden the sound of cruel heart. Of one thing you can be assured, notwithstanding the cynics, that the true, loyal, Christian women oi the world, the women whose opinions count, will always resent the stab given an innocent, helpless sister, and the hand that held the dagger wil give it's owner as much distress in the future as the little hand of Lady Macbeth from which the 'damned spot'' could not be cleansed.

CHRONIC cATARRH.
A DISEASE OF MANY FORMS AND KNOWN BY
 MANY NAMES.


 MANY NAMES.
 The question is often asked how Pe-ru-n na can be honestly recommended for so many different diseases. pr. Hartman's reply to this question is as follows: "Pe-rn-n na is an ideal specific for catarrh wherever To- cated. Catarrh is only one and the same disease wherever located in the head, chest, abdomen or pelvis. It so happens, how ever, that catarrh of the various organs of the body has come to be known by different names, and in this way the impression is made that Pe-ru-na is recommended for many diseases, when the fact is they are all one disease.
 "Catarrh of the nose is called ozena, catarrh of the throat is called pharyngitis, catarrh of the larynx is called laryngitis, catarrh of the bronchial turbes is called bronchitis, catarrh of the lungs is called consumption, catarrh of the stom- ach is called dyspepsia, catarrh of the bowels is called diar- rh@a and dysentery, catarrh Of the kidneys Is called Brights disease. catarrh of the bladder is called cystitis, catalrh of the womb is called female disease. But all Of these diseases from beginning 10 end are simply chronic catarrh, and whatever rem edy is capable of curing catarrh in one To- cation will cure it in every other location. Thus it is easy for any one to see that in recommending Pe-ru-na for this long list of diseases 1t IS really only recommended will cure them all for the simple reason that it will cure any one of them."
 Every one interested i n this subject should send for free copy of the Family Physician No. 2, which completely ex- piains the whole subject of chronic ca- Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing Company, tOlumhus q.

Under the subject OF current topics Mrs.
