 Owing to their popularity. we are of- ten asked how many of our instruments are being used in the States of Alabama and Georgia. Our books show the sale of S9S7 of these well known instruments in the two States, We suppose that you could hardly find a block in any city, town or village without one or more of these good pianos. Every one is fully warranted by the Cable Company. who have been for years the largest manu- lecturers of high grade pianos and or gans in the world. A beautiful stock of the Cable goods are now being sold at prices sthat cannot be duplicated by any dealer. We have no discourteous thing to say of piano dealers who are com pelled to ask you $50 to $100 more for pianos of the same quality, in ~Order to realize their profits, but we sell yo1 pianos. direct from our factory new and fresh. We have no pianos to offer you, that have become worn out by being carted and rented from house to house over the entire city and country.
 We have nothing ito say about dealers who offer you such goods nor of their methods prices or profits, but do earnest ly advise the thoughtful prudent buyer to see what can be done at the Cable store Call on us and be convinced

OF ICE
 IN SOUTHERN STATES

which distilled water alone is used. The value of can ice ranges from $256 a ton in South Carolina to $6.35 in Indian Ter ritory. The value in this state, $4.52 is above the average. which is $3.10. The census bulletin says the average cost of production of manufactured ice Is $1.50 a ton; the average wholesale price g a ton; the average retail price varying from 15 cents to 30 cents per 100 pounds.
 No natural ice is now sold in the south, and a fair estimate of the cost of pro- ducing artificial ice is g a ton, or ten pounds for one cent Under exceptiona- bly, favorable circumstances artificial ice Is sometimes made at a cost varying from 70 to 90 cents a ton.
 The twenty-three Ice plants In Alabama have a capital amounting to $63l 667. They afford employment to 249 wage earners and forty-three clerks.
 In the compressor spstem there are three successive steps-compression, con- densation and expansion. The anhydrous ammonia in the gaseous form Is subject ed to pressure of about 150 pounds per square inch. The gas Is then reduced to a liquid by condensation. It then be- comes gaseous again in coils of pipe which are in contact with the water to be frozen. The ammonia absorbs from the water all heat and the water at once freezes. Very i.ttle ammonia is lost. In tn absorption system there are four steps the generation of gas. condensation, eX- pansion and absorption. The gas Is cre- ated by heat; condensation is induced by cold water; it then becomes a gas, and it absorbs heat thus producing ice or re- frigeration The compressor plan is the simpler of the two, and is now generally preferred.

HOTEL AT LORING SPRINGS
 PROVES POPULAR RESORT
While People In Birmingham are Suf- fering From Excessive Heat the Visitors on Lookout are
 Sleeping Under Blankets.
BY BOHEMIAN c. BULoER

Possibly ninety per cent. of the young people of Alabama are unaware of the fact that Lookout Mountain extends for eighty-eight miles into the nothern tier of counties, and the highest point on the entire range Is located at Mentone, two miles from Valley Head.
 Here Is the real backbone of the fa- nous chain of mountains, and the little hamlet which has been converted into a summer resort rests peacefully 25O0 feet above the level of the sea. For years 1t has been the prevailing idea that the sharp historical peak near Chatta- nooga is the highest point. but this Is due to the abrupt end of the range over looking low river valley.
 Oftentimes the veterans of Missionary ridge have seen fit to term that memor- able contest the battle above the clouds" At Mentone, the truth of this statement Is verified, for the sturdy mountaineers who inhabit the broad plateau have grown so accustomed to seeing the clouds below them that the spectacle is no longer considered a phe- nomenon.
 On the crescent of this beautiful plat eau, MT. Charles A. Loring, formerly Missouri lawyer, has built a large sum- mer hotel which in the last few years has grown to be one of the most popular resorts in the South. The hotel was
