hat Tired Feeling

Is certain indication offmpure and i'm poverished blood. If your blood could always be rich and pure, full of the red corpuscles upon which it's vitality depends, you would never be weak, or Nervousl Boils, pimples, scrofula, salt rheum, would never trouble you. But our mode of living, shut in all winter in poorly ventilated homes and shops, depletes the blood and there is loss of appetite, and weakness. Hoods Sarsa- parilla is the standard remedy for this condition. It purifes, vitalizes and enriches the blood, overcomes that tired feeling, builds up the nerves and gives perfect health. Read this:

BIRMINGHAM IRON
Being Used in Canada, and Will Be Sent Abroad-A Prominent Iron
 Man in the City.

Mir. Brown of Rogers, Brown & Co.,, the big iron brokers of Cincinnati, is in the city, conferring with Mir. James Bowron of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railway com psny. MT. Brown buys from this com- pany aslarge amount of iron, aud not only sells it to manufacturers in the United States, but also in other countries. He sellstabout 500 tons month of the Ensley iron in Canada. This iron is soft, and is used by the Canadian mills in mixing with thesnorthern iron, which is harder. These shipments mean nearly $50, GOO a year paid into lhe Birmingham distriet by Canada. The Ga nadians pay about s15 a ton for the Birmingham iron. The cost at the furnace is s6 60 ton, the freight "A 50 ton and the4anadian tariff on iron ls S4 a ton. If thesCa nadian manufacturers can work up S15 Iron and make money it looks like manntactures ought to pay in Birmingham with iron at SC. 60 ton.
 The Canadian government Is trying to encourage the making of iron athome, and hasscffered a bounty and relief from taxa ton to the projectors of furnace at Ham, iltons The better plan would be for the govern ment 10 pursue the course of the UnIted States and reduce it's duties and give its manufacturers living chance. II Canada will reduce As duty on iron, the Birihtp gham district will supply it with all it needs and cheaper than the iron can be made there. With Canada at our doors thefe would be no need for Birmingham to heek European markets.
 Mir. Brown is now negotiating with the steamship p lines for shipment of our iron to Europe. The outlook is so favorable for foreign shipments that his firm has gone to the expense of sending a representative to Europe to thoroughly look over the field and make all necessary arrangements.

 About two weeks ago it was my ill luck 10 ma ke trip on rainy day to a a"coun- try store'' some ten miles from little north tAlabamu town, and to find that a ri- val drummer in my line had already, with his samples, reached this isolated store. Rival drummers, you must know, what ever their secret feelings, are as consider ate IG their bearing toward one another as young rivals in love, so, on finding this ''k night' in his tilt with the merchant, stepped out under the shed in front of the store fo bide my time.
 There, seated upon an empty box, whose soft.pine was easily and steadily yielding to the'strokes of d long bladed Rogers, was an old, woe begone, one- -galiussd farm tenant idly gazing out upon the drtary, rainy prospect.
 Wishing to smoke my yself, and, of course, wanting company, inyitingly extended to thisisrmer a first-class Havana with a free and easy, "Do you use the weed?"
