A WORD or TIMELY ADVICE.


 A charming woman who is bent on helping certain gentlemen to arrive at an acceptable conclusion on very im- portant subject. writes the following letter:
 Dear Mrs. de Cottes-We notice what you say in The Advertiser In regard to the perplexity of the thirteen pub lic-spirited members of the Constitu- tionaI Convention as to what charitaoie institution shall receive the per diem which their consciences will not allow them to accept for their own use:
 As we read the decision of these thir- teen "Innlcrtals.' like the sound of the babbling brook from the far-of days of our childhood, came back to us the immortal lines of the poet:
 .sBreathes there a man with soul so
 dead,
 Who never to himself hath said This is my own, my native land!
 Only thirteen out of 155 members are willing to work for their beloved State free gratis! Such men are rare-blos- soming only with the century plant, exotic-Iike exhaling a Jessamine fra grance that will finger with us ever long after the suffrage ordinance and the pass question have sunk into desue- tu1e. their names will finger with us like 8 t'linked sweetness long drawn out" It is really too hard that these patriotic men should be troubled about this money. We appreciate their per ,plexity and with true latter-day phil arlfhruphy, we hasten to their aid. We suggest that this small sum be do- mated to furnish free lunches and cigars for the delectation and refreshment of the 142 sordid, money-loving members of the Convention. Thus. this bone of contention, this dGspised per diem. will find its way back to the source whence it came and 142 greedy men will be made happy. Nexti

Hammered Down the Price of whea'
 and Corn


 New York. July 23.-The bears had their turn in the grain market today. They hammered down the price of wheat cents and corn anywhere from to cents per bushel. The official map showed very little raln in the Western grain belt. and predictions were for a continued hot and dry period. But the speculative contingent cared little for that. Every man in the grain crowd and good part for the speculative public was loaded with grain, having bought only as big advance and dry weather talk. Big brokers did their best to find buyers, but could only sell at big con sessions. One operator offered corn all the way down from 1sG62b before he could make a trade It was a speculative craze to sell and lasted until the orders gave out, when a breathing spell and a slight rally occurred. It was 0-iaf, how ever. for more rain news in the afternoon brought on another bear attack and a deluge of selling orders which weakened September corn here to 5S.
 Wheat broke from TIA to 1o1s with the decline in corn and under reports of showers in the Northwest.

Do
 You Know Any Reason

Why Montgomery peo- pie should buy a beer made else where when 1t is a settled fact that the ''purest and best' is made right here at home?
 It is generally conced- ed to be good business policy to ep your money at home, to pat ronize those who help support the town, and to encourage home indus tries by home patronage. If our people patronize enterprises of other ci- ties, we shall have poor reason to complain if other cities prosper and Montgomery lags behind.
 In the matter of beer, there was never a purer or more wholesome arti- cle brewed than the pro- duct of this company. It costs no more than in- ferior brands, and, con- sequently, there is no possible reason why it should not be in every M o n t g omery home w h ere good beer is wanted.
