 Alderman Gunter brought up the com plaint made by Judges A. D. Snyre and w. H.

Mayor F. B. Joseph in communication last night to the City Council suggested that Section 1l32 of the City Code be amended and reformed.
 The section regulates the doing of busi- ness in the city and contains the prohibi- tion clauses in regard to Sunday closing. The Mayor said the section was adopted to meet conditions existing fifty years ago. His communication in full was as follows:
 Montgomery, Ala, Sept. 15. 1902. To the City Council:
 Gentlemen-Section 1l32 of the City Code which seeks to regulate the doing busi- ness of any kind (other than sale of liquor to which another section, l13S, applies es- peciany), in my opinion needs modifica- tion in some respects This section was evidently drawn many years ago, and is so sweeping in it's wording that it is impossible of being strictly enforced. 1t seems to have been drawn to meet con- ditions. existing fifty years ago. It per mits what was deemed necessary at that time and prohibits others which are now absolute necessities.
 Respectfully,
 F. B. Joseph Mayor. The communication of the Mayor was referred to the Judiciary Committee

 Loui, J. Scherrinsky. 1OS Locust Street, Atlantic. Iowa. writes:
 ''I will tell you briefly what Peruna has done for me. I tock a severe cold which gave me a hard cough. All doc- tors medicines failed to cure 1t. I took one bottle of Peruna and was well. ; Then my two children had bad coughs accompanied by sagging. My wife hal stomach trouble for years. She took Peruna and now she is well.
 "I cannot express my thanks in words. but I recommend your remedy at every opportunity, for can conscient.ously say that there Is no medicine like Peruna. Nearly. everyone in this town knew about the sickness of myself and family, and they have seen with astoni shment what Peruna has done for us. Many folloke our example, and the result was health. Thanking you heartily. I am."-L J. Scherrinsky.
