PLANS FOR THE DECEMBER
 BAZAAR GIVEN BY U. D. c.

Extensive plans have been formulated for the bazaar to be held in December under the auspices of Pelham chapter, Daughters of the Confectionery, of which Mrs. Edmund Taylor Ta1iafrerro is presi- dent. The committees are enthusiastical- ly at work and the general chairman, Mrs. J. A. Rountree, is exerting every ef- fort to make the bazaar great success
 In selecting Mrs. Rountree as chairman the Daughters feel confident that the bazaar will be not only a financial but a social success as we'll Mrs. Ronntree is one of the most prominent Daughters in the state. and her splendid work for Pelham chapter assures a success of any undertaking in which she is asked to as- sume the leadership.
 In speaking yesterday of the bazaar, Mrs. Rountree said:
 "The bazaar will be opened on Deeem- Der 2, and our undertaking promises to be even a greater success than we at first anticipated. A number of booths have been taken by merchants both here and elsewhere, who will have attractive exhibits.
 Our own booths are in the hands of most capable chairmen, who have ap- pointed strong commit tees, and every one is working most enthusiastically for her department.
 "Yes, there are to be a number of other bazaars this fall, both small and large, but I scarcely think they will in any way interfere with ours. Every woman in town should assist us We are working for a great cause.
 "A monument in Capitol park will be a great thing for the city and we don t want to erect anything but a handsome one. We have nice little sum already on hand, and we hope this bazaar will greatly increase it, for we want the monument to be a credit not only to Bir- mingham, but to the entire south,
 We would like to appeal to every woman of the city to send us some little contribution, whether she is asked per- sonally or not, and I feel sure many of them will.
 Birmingham is one of the very few cities without a single monument, fact really to be ashamed of Throughout all the other states there is scarcely town of any size without it's imposing monu- ment, and here we are a city-a city of push and nterprise-boasting of our vast resources, and increasing wealth, and not one granite column anywhere within our limits.
 Important bodies of influential men and women come to Birmingham, and are driven over the city. They see our parks with only trees and shrubbery;
The Birmingham age-herald., 1902-10-26

they see monumentless mounds, and oth- CT unadorned places which show a lack of progressive citizenship of which every one of us ought to be ashamed
 'sThe Birmingham Daughters are work ing hard. but we cannot do it all, and we are going to give the public chance to push our undertaking to success
 Let every citizen feel that he, or she, has some responsibility in this matter. Come forward and give us supporti work for the bazaar, talk about the bazaar, and then when the doors are open not only come, but bring some one else, and show that Birmingham.s citizens are loyal and public-spirited, and glad of a chance to show their zeal.

BOOKS AND AUTHORS.
BY PAUL PRY.

large proportion of the fiction of the past year drew its inspiration from the scenes and events of the Revolutionary period.
 It is a period that readily lends itself to picturesque treatment as it is filled with romance and poetry and is now seen through the softening perspective Of an intervening century. Then, too, the char acters of the period are innumerable and with the stirring history they created are easily adapted to romantic and dra- matic treatment The most successful works have taken either Hamilton or Burr as the central figure around which to group the story The most pronounced success of the year, of course, was Ger trude Athertons "The Conqueror." It reached enormous sales and was unani- mously characterized as a masterly ana finished piece of work. It was an apotheo- sis of Alexander Hamilton. and on that score, created no small amount of com ment There were several pieces Of work which attempted the same Tor Aaron Burr, the latest of which is Charles Eel ton Pidgins The Climax or What Might Have Been." Of the book a recent re- viewer says: But Hamilton comes in for the heaviest chastisement and we are rather led to believe that 'The Climax had it's initiative in the righteous indig- nation of the author and that another novelist should have called him The Conqueror, and that, therefore, he de- cided to show who the true conqueror really was; even if he had to create a new life for his hero and construct a wholly original history of the United States in which to accomplish the fact"
 Mir Pidgin is favorably known as the author of the character tale, Quincy Adams Sawyer" and his new story, "The Climax" has received goodly share of favorable comment
 The difficulties of bookmaking of which the public never hears, are exemphfied in the case of Booth Tarkington-s new novel, "The Two Vaurenels," which has already reached, it is reported, the sixty fifth thousand. The cover of the book requires cream leaf. After the first twenty-five thousand copies, the cream leaf market began to run short ana agents were sent out to collect it. In a short time there was no high grade cream leaf to be obtained in America. Then it was tried to get cream leaf from Ger many, and there, too, the supply had run short Then there was difficulty about the gliding. because expert gilders are

nRUNKENEsS & nPIUM HABITS

SOver 6p00 Opium x SWhiskey Patients Have been successfully treated by pr. Samuel Morrow of Memphis, Tenn, who is the medical director of the "Old Home stead Sanatorium'' at Memphis.
 MT. Charles B. James, who was the pioneer in the 'Keeley Institute" bust ness in the south, says great many peo- pie object to being known as "graduates' of an "institute." He therefore calls his Sanatorium the "OId Homestead" where patients can be treated without publics~y By the improved treatment employed at the Old Homestead Sanatorium the pa tient is restored to a normal condition without undergoing nervous shock and without injury to the sexual organs When patient gets through he is yigor- ous and ready to go to work.

OVERLOOKED.
There Are Patent Medicines and Rem edies Without Number For Every Disease and AfflIction But
 One.

One.
 A prominent physician was recently asked why it was that there are so many .ssbiood purifiers" nerve tonics" and remedies for every ill., except one of the most common and annoying, viz piles He replied, there are two principal req sons. First physicians and people in general, have thought that the only per- manent cure for piles was a surcal oper- simply palliative. Another reason Is. that piles is in no sense of the word an imag- mary disease; that sufferer from piles is very much aware of the fact and for this reason, the few so-called piles salves ointment, etc, have been short-lived. The patient very soon discovered their inef- ficfency.
 He says further. fortunately, however, there is a new remedy for piles, which, Judging from it's rapidly growing popular ity, will soon take the place Of all other treatment it has certainly made as- tonishing cures in this obstinate disease and its merit has made 1t famous among physicians, and wherever it has been in- troduced This remedy is sold by all druggists under the name of Pyramid Pile Cure
 From the immediate relief which the Pyramid Pile Cure gives in all forms of piles many physicians supposed it con tained opium cocaine or some similar substance, but upon analysis it was found to be perfectly free from, any thing of the kind, and that the instant relief and cure which follows it's use is rather the result of it's remarkable heal ing. soothing action on the parts affected
 The Pyramid Pile Cure is the only rem edy except a surgical operation, which immediately relieves and permanently cures every form of piles.
 It is sold by druggists at 50 cents and s1, or by mail from Pyramid Durg Co.,. Marshall, Mich.
