That friend was truly a friend indeed Miss Drake feels deeply grateful to Wine of Cardui for her deliv- crance from suffering. She says:
 "Expcrience is severe teacher sometimes, as have learned. Two years ago attended an evening reception and bali and leaving it became suddenly chilled and the conse- quences which followed were very serious. Eeadaeh,s and pains in my sides and shoul- der blades were very common occurrence. I lost my appetite and soon ceased to enjoy life. A good neighbor advised me to try Wine of Cardu and sent for some. It is certainly a wonderful remedy. In few weeks was weii and have not had pain since. You deserve success and certainly hope you wilt have it."
 Miss Drake has learned what thousands Of other young ladies have learned, that actual experience is severe teacher and she wishes other girls to profit by her ex- ample. She knows what it is to suffer and she also knows that Wine of Cardui brings

Food for the Fans.


 large crowd gathered at the Apollo pool rooms yesterday and listened to the reports of the game in Chattanooga with groans, though a few cheers were raised in the last half of the nintil when several scores were made. The Chattanooga op- orator who sent the report got his bat ting list badly mixed and the crowd and the Birmingham operator were misled as to who was at bat. According to the Chatta- nooga operator Haller was accredited with three hits, when they should have gone to Moss. Denver was thought to be the pitcher when In fact Frank Smith was in the box. By Smith being in the box this put him at the bottom of the batting list and consequently made the entire batting list as tele- graphed incorrect The officials in Chattanooga should see that the operator at the ground has his batting list cor rect. as it works an injustice on the owners of the pool rooms, who pay for the service in Birmingham.

 CHEAP?

If those interested will take the time necessary to make the investi- gation, they will discover pretty soon that our Creosote Stains are not cheap" goods; but, on the contrary, are away above other brands of Stain sold in this market.
 In other words, the intrinsic value of the material used to make up our finished Stains is higher than in the products of other makers.
 The value of an article of this kind Is reckoned by it's wearing qualities. We sell our goods on their merits, and if they do not give perfect satisfaction, We will stand the loss.
 Will other stain makers do as well?

terests the audience, as was shown by
the fact that packed house was well

The work goes with snap and vim
that shows the value of preparation

production is very nicely staged. The
