Not in boastfu way but stating fact say, that the people of Birmingham proud of this store, and proud of every department in this store.
 Take for instance the department of Carpets-Where in the South you find such assortment Where in the South will you find big stock You can under the value of big stock appeal you Doyou understand what it is TO YOU?
 It means that store that is able to buy in enormous quantities able to sell at less than other storeS-Appy the reason to home and house keeping mehodS-Don't you pay less for coal than the who lacks the ability to buy Dy the ton Then go back another point in the reasoning .Doesn the dealer who buys in dozen car load lots buy cheaper and sell cheaper than the dealer who buys only single car load ?-Of course and it's the way with everything else The individual, firm or company, who buys in great quantities is able sell cheaper than the in dlvdual or firm that buys in smaller way

VERDICT MEANT DEATH.

Aldrich, No., May 27.-Four of the
best doctors in the vicinity have been
in attendance on Mrs. Mollie Moore, of
this place, who has been suffering with
a very severe case of Nervousness and
Kidney Disease. Each of them told her
that she would die.
Hearing of Dodd's Kidney Pills, she
began to use them, and instantly no
ticed a change for the better. Her i'm
provement has been continuous since
then. She says that the disease first
manifested itself by the appearance
of dark spots floating before her eyes.
Her nerves were so bad that many
times they would collapse completely,
Ind she would fall down as If shot.
The fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills
saved her after four doctors had given
her up, has caused no end of talk in this
neighborhood, and all are loud in their
praises of this new remedy-Dodd's
Kidney Pills-which is curing so many
hitherto incurable cases, in this state
and elsewhere.

RUSSIAN COTTON FIELDS.
Growing I'm Extent and Productive
ness - Will Soon supply
All Her own Needs.

1t is expected that Russia will be
able soon to supply her own needs in
cotton, according to a report received
at the state department from Deputy
Consul General Hanauer, at Frankfort,
Germany. She is one of the few coun-
tries which levies a tax on imported
cotton. A tax equal to almost five
dollars per 40 pounds, and amounting
to about two-thirds of the value of the
staple, is imposed. The importation Of
cotton diminished over 72,Oo0,0Oo
pounds in 1899, while the production in
creased "a per cent. during the same
year. Great fields in Russia are now
planted with cotton. for the cultiva-
ton of the fiber is much more profit
able than that of wheat.

SHERIDAN'S BIRTHPLACE.
New York and Ohio Both Claimed the
HonOr-Rcmark of the
General.

II the events of coming fame would
cast longer shadow before, an adj
miring people would keep more care
full record of the birthplace of men
destined to be heroes. In this way
much controversy might be saved.
An old New Hampshire man of a
former generation, who may have
thought that he saw fame coming his
way, wished to establish ut least one
fact beyond doubt. To this end he
began a speech in his native town by
saying: IT was born in Blanktown,
was always born in Blanktown. and
I always meant to be born in Blank
town."
Among the heroes of many battles
and of more than one reputed birth
place, was Gen. Philip Sheridan. Al
bany, n. Y, claims him as her son,
and wishes to erect an equestrian
statue to him. State Historian Hugh
Hastings ably backs up the claim.
Ohio also claims Sheridan for the
town of Somerset. And when he was
mentioned as q possible candidate for
the presidency, it was said that he
was born in Ireland. This led Sheri-
dan to tell Mr.. Hastings, with em-
phasis, that he was born in Albany,
N. Y.
Even then the public gossips were
not satisfied, and other places still
pressed their claims. This provoked
Gen. Sheridan to remark:
"If this thing keeps on / soon shall
be a bigger man than old Homer,
with more than seven cities contend
ing for my BIRTH"
The claim of Albany seems strong
enough to warrant the statue.

BETTER THAN "ABOUT RIGHT"
Lecturer, by n Lank Yankee
of New England.

Thomas Starr King, the famous
preacher and lecturer, was settled in
California at the outbreak of the
cival war, and to his influence is
ascribed the change of public opin-
ion in that state from lukewarmness
toward the northern cause to devoted
loyalty. The Overland Monthly has
lately published an article on this
famous man from which we take an
anecdote told about Mr.. King by
James T. Fields:
Mr.. King, with friend, was maxi
ing a trip through the White noun
tains. They were travelling by that
most delightful of conveyances-a
country wagon. When they stopped
q few minutes at the door of New
Hampshire tavern, Mr.. Kings COM
panion went in to replenish their pro-
vision basket, and he remained in the
vehicle.
One of the tall, lank, slab-sided
Yankees that are always hanging
round a New England inn door slouched
up to the team and began altering
the harness, slackening strap here
and Tightening buckle there, all I'M
asked, until Mr.. King got impatient
at the length of the operation, and
said, rather sharply:
"You needn't trouble yourself my
more. I think that harness is about
right"
The Yankee finished his work and
drawled out: "Guess rights better'n
abeaout right"
There was no reply to this. Mr..
Kings friend returned, and he drove
of, confessing to lesson which he
needed to learn less than most of his
countrymen: Right is better than
"about right
