KNOWLEDGE

It has given satisfaction to millions and met with the approval of the medical profession, because it acts on the Kid neys, Liver and Bowels without weak ening them and it is perfectly free from every objectionable substance.
 Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug gists in 50c and S1 bottles, but it is man. ufactured by the California Fig Syrup Go. only, whose name is printed on every package, also the name, Syrup of Figs, and being well informed, you will not accept any substitute if offered.

Meeting of Stockholders and Direct ors-Colonel Shook President.
 Further Improvements.

A stockholders meeting of the Birming- ham Railway and Electric company was held in the office of the company Tuesday at noon and the following board of direct ors was elected for the ensuing year: A. M. Soook, Paschal c. Shook, J. c. War ner, Percy Warner, c. B. Mccormack, Robert Jemison, William A. Walker, George L. Morris and B. F. Roden. The first five are new members of the board. Several of the new board are citizens of Nashville, and their investments here show their faith in the city.
 The board of directors elected the follow ing officers: A. NJ. Shook, president; Robert Jemison, vice. president and gen. eral manager; William A. Walker, second vice. president; J. A. Stratton, secretary and treasurer. The superinteudent's office is appointive, and Mir. J. B. MeClary was reappointed with unanmity. Colonel Shook was elected president to succeed MT. T. T. Hillman, whose resignation was necessitated because of his absence this winter in California in search of health. Colonel Shook is largely interested in the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad com pany, and it was recently rumored that he would make Birmingham his home-per- haps he may yet conclude to do so.
 The Birmingham Railway and Electric company has been eminently successful under it's energetic and progressive man. agement, and it is an institution of which every citizen is proud. Other improve ments are in contemplation, and every modern device will be utilized to further perfect the street railway system.

 GENTLEMEN: Having constantly used the New Yost machine since it's purchase from you on the 9th January fast, l desire to express my complete satisfaction with the advantages claimed for It over other machines I have tried. It combines strength and simplicity beyond any have used, and is more easily cleaned-the types in great measure cleaning themseives by the pad.
 The pad replacing the ribbon gives the triple advantage of clearer print, greater power in maniiolding without woolly edges of letter, and far greater cheapuess. have used this machine nine moaths for corre- spondence, newspaper and literary manu- scripts, table work, etc., and can discover no failing or change in impression from first day.
 But the greatest advantages l find in the ost are its absolute accuracy oi align ment, the convenience of the pointer and the adjustable line-lock.
 In my opinion the Yost is the best ma chine, by all odds, that have tried. Very truly yours, T. c. DELEoN.
