Nothing! ucceeIs Like Success

The highest evidence of superior merit in these times of crowded competition is that a professional man continues to increase in public favor
 Birmingham, like most cities, seems over crowded with doctors of all degrees, but there is one whose distinctive success has been so phenomenal as to attract atten- tion not only on account of his ever in- creasing bushes, but for the almost unan- imous opinion expressed by all that he is the most successful in effecting a cure In nearly every case which fals under his care. Of course this alludes to Dr. O. T. Dozier. the noted specialist, whose prac- tice is limited to rectal and gento-urnary surgery, and to diseases of the skin, nerves and blood. and to the delicate disorders and private diseases of which he is pre- eminently the master.
 He has practiced here in Birmingham many years, and is known to be perfectly reliable in every way, and worthy of every confidence. *3*

It was a fitting tribute to her untirng efforts and no otheF- frlCr int how mi Flx greater significance. That Alabama might enjoy the improved methods adopted by the reformatores in other states, Mrs. Johnston visited those institutions and made personal investigation of the work.

Conspicuous among the visiting club women was Mrs Erwin Craighead of Mobile. whose two terms president of the Alabama Federation brought her ir close touch with ali work undertaken by Alabama women. It was at the meeting of the federation two years ago in Mobile that Mrs. R. D. Johnston. in her address before the members with a brilliant climax. turned to Mrs. Craighead and presented the federation with charter and a 5000 appropriation for an industrial school for wayward boys of Alabama.
 Mrs Craighead, through her entire ad- ministraton, gave her enthusiastic CO., operation and support to the work, and by personal efforts secured contributions from Mobile in the way of material for the buildings. She has always advocated a broad scope for the federation and its in- f1uence for education and along all chan nels that it is now directing its forces is a source of qualification to her in her am- bition for Alabama women to lead in all progressive works.

1.-The Johnston Home. "

The laying of the cornerstone of the Alabama Boys Industrial School the past week was the occasion of bringing to- gether a number of prominent Alabama women, whose names have been identified with the movement from its incipiency, and who have been at all times it's inspira- tion. Among the visiting women was Mrs. George B. Eager of Montgomery, whose earnestness and enthusiasm influenced to a great extent the action of the federation several years ago, when the building of an industrial school was first brought to its attention. From that time until the pres ent Mrs. Eager, by the eloquent force of her pen and her words, has worked for the establishment of an Alabama reforma- tory. Through her personal efforts she secured nearly s1 900 from Montgomery and among all the influences that have been brought to bear upon the work none have been more productive of good results than that extended at all times by this gifted and brainy woman. The announcement that pr. Eager has resigned his pastorate at Montgomery and has accepted chair in the Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville has been received with universal regret by the club women of Alabama, since his departure will remove one of the strongest forces in the club life of the state. Mrs. Eager has so long been identi- fled with club interests that the women leaders with whom she has worked feel that her place cannot be filled.
 The eloquent words of Dr. Eager on the occasion of the laying of the cornerstone could have been alone inspired by the work of Mrs. Eager, who witnessing the con- pletion of a great work in which she had been conspicuous leader, stood silently by and with swimming eyes listened to the words from the eloquent lips of her husband who declared that an epoch had been marked in the history of the con- monwealth.
