MAKE A TEST OF STUART'S DYSPEP.
STA TABLETS.

No trouble is more common or more mis-
understood than nervous dyspepsia. People
having it think their nerves are to blame,
and are surprised that they are not cured
by nerve medicines. The real seat of the
mischief is lost sight of. The stomach is the
organ to be looked after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have any
pain whatever in the stomach, nor perhaps
any of the usual symptoms OF stomach
weakness. Nervous dyspepsia shows itself
not in the stomach so much as in nearly ev-
cry organ. In some cases the heart palpi-
are affected; in others the bowels are con-
stipated, with headaches; still others are

A MOST PROMINENT
 WALL PAPER DEALER

Among the prominent merchants of the Birmingham Board of Trade the name of J. II. Roll should not be omitted.
 MT Roll deals in all kinds of interior decorations, wall paper, artists material, etc.
 lie came to Birmingham some ten years since, and as a practical decorator has met with great success. He is not only a deal CT in art supplies, but is himself an artist and has designed and executed some of the most artistic interior decorative work ever seen in Birmingham or the south. (As he does not confine himself to this city alone but sends his workmen all over the south.) Among the many good jobs in this city might be mentioned the Hotel Morris, Ala bama club rooms, Alabama Trust and Saw ings bank. But his latest great success was the interior finish of the beautiful Peerless saloon corner Nineteenth street and Sec ond avenue He was also awarded the con- tract for the decorating of the Jewish syna- gogue. His establishment is located at No. 1923 Second avenue, where anything in the lines mentioned will always be found.

THE ALABAMA HOME."

Birmingham Evening News
 News comes to us from every town and city in this state that this association is gaining in strength and popularity amongst the leading people of each place to de- gree never enjoyed by any financial organ ization In Alabama.
 The Alabama Home" was organized in April, 1891, just at the close of the great real estate boom. Building and loan money commanded a high rate in those far-off days. We all remember when money sold at per cent. and 40 per cent. premium. Calling around at the home office of the Alabama Home the other day we had our attention called to the little book that the association is now issuing. We say in paTenthesis that each of our readers should call at 2009 First avenue and get one of these little books. The present rate of 6 per cent. interest and premium now charged is $3.60 per annum and the ma ager of the company informs us that he has sufficient funds to accommodate all desirable borrowers. "1ihe Alabama Home" has now been in our midst many years; 1t has encouraged the accumulation of hundreds of thousands of dollars which has been returned to its members with fair proht. It has aidsd it's members in building hundreds of homes. It has redeemed over Sl,0O0,010 of its stock and has on its books more than Sl 500, 900 of stock in foree We have noticed the steady growth of the Alabama Home and it's growing popularity, and we believe that it will take its stand beside those great and permanent financial institutions like the Birkbeck, of London; the Equitable, of Washington, D. C., or the Mutual Home, of Dayton, O.. Above all else the Alabama Home Is conserva- tive, modern and liberal. Under the new terms there are no lapses or fines.

off, writes Brig. Gen. Hall, now on
duty in the Philippines, in letter to
friends in Washington. The letter is
dated early in May, about the time
Aguinaldo was making his overtures
for peace, and shows that the Ameri-
can army officers had little faith in
the sincerity of the request for peace
negotiations. Gen. Otis has been in
structed to censor all news. and, to
be consistent. the war department,
since the departure of Secretary Alger,
has declined to make public many

up a day or two before being posted

good qualities of brick, asphalt and
macadam, with none of their disad-
vantages, and to be cheaper than any
of them. 1t is called novaculite, is
quarried in the Ozark mountains, and
for the last six years has been used
somewhat extensively in St. Louis
and East St. Louis. 1t is said to be
well adapted to heavy traffic, but is
not so good on streets where cleanli-

Promoters of Trusts.

Trusts are still springiDg into ex-
istence like mushrooms after a spring
shower. In vain the batteries of news
papers and public condemnation are
turned upon this rapidly increasing
evil. The New York Journal of Com
merce. taking for its text the state
ment that trusts are promoted, not by
men engaged in the business concern
ed, but by mere spectators, caustic-
ally remarks that:
IF merely legitimate trade devel-
opments were the purpose of those
huge com binations it would seem to
be a necessary feature of them that
their organizers and managers should
be chiefly, if not solely, men skilled in
the particular trade afTected-men
who had been trained and brought up
in the business. 1t would seem, more
over, equally natural and logical to
expect that such organizations, if in
tended simply for the developme mt of
trade according to modern ideas on
strictly economical lines, should be
perfected in their offices and factories
and not in the resorts of spectators
and stock manipulators. The pro-
motors of the combines, trusts and
syndicates of recent growth is almost
invariably an expert Wall street OPP
orator and nothing more, utterly ig-
norant of the practical operations of
any trade, save that of stock manipu-
Iation, and with as little considera-
tion for the future or the industry
which he undertakes to organize as
for the interests of the consumers of
it's products. 1t is primarily, if not
his business to enrich
himself and those associated with
him at the public expense. The pre-
posterous overcapitalization of most
of these enterprises reveals the kind
Of intelligence that presides over
their formation and the quarter from
which profit is expected to come to
the organizers.

our claim: Albert Burton, of 2S10
