REAL ESTATEEXCHANGE
QUESTION or ORGANIZING ONE REVIVED.
Dealers Claim That Such an Exchange Would Accrue to Benefit ta Owners and Kenters--The
 Tax Question.

The organization ot Real Estate Ex- change In Montgomery has again been the subject of considerable discussion lately. The question has been before this agftated but the organization was not completed,
 The real estate dealers of the city arc confident that the organization of such an exchange would be of great and ma terial benefit to both the property own CTS of the city and the agents who han de and control property in Montgomery. They believe that tho proposed exchange would do much towards creating a healthy public sentiment against the high taxation that now prevails.
 While the exchange would of course, have no direct influence towards the re- duction of taxes it would arouse public sentiment upon the question, The high taxation evil say the dealers. Is the great est trouble from which property owners and dealers in real estate suffer.
 It would. moreover, regulate and fnodi- fy the existing abuse of property by ten ants. which is now prevalent The real estate men claim that the proposed ex- change will he of the greatest benefit to property holders and to renters for that matteE
 More money. perhaps, is invested in real estate in Montgomery than in any other investment Real estate more than holds its own here. Lots houses and all real estate are high and rents are up in proportion.
 Conditions would be changed and the change would accrue to the advantage of all by the organization of the Real Es- tate Exchange, the dealers claim

GOLDEN BROWN. The Color Sought in Coffee.

When a person has been shown that a change in food or drink can make and keep one we'll 1t Is a thing not likely to be forgotten.
 Coffee Is a "kilier' for many people, and, of course, when left off, the user will probably regain a degree of health without any outside help, but when Pos tum Food Coffee is used the return to health is much more rapid. for Postum is a distinct and well defined health builder with a delicious coffee flavor and q beautiful deep brown color that changes to golden brown when cream is added.
 A Chicago man, Peter c. Hoist, at s15 Englewood Ave, writes. Reading in the paper the other day something about Postum Cereal. 1t awoke in me a remin- iscent vein.
 About f$e years ago. when I was miserable dyspeptic. I first heard of Pos tum Cereal Coffee and put it to a careful test.
 had been afflicted for years. with chronic dyspepsia and all the medicines had tried were in vain. One by one had to leave them of and was in despair as to what should do for relief.
 My first taste of Postum was about ten O clock one morning. l did not dare to take cream with it for I knew what the result would be with my stomach. That is thought l did. l nave since learned that cream can be taken in Postum even by bad dyspeptics. but I had my first taste with only hot water in it and a little sugar. The second cup followed the first and third followed the second. took my departure munehing some of the dry grains of Pastum as I was deter mined to investigate it's effects thor oughly.
 That day had no dinner and experi-' enced no distressing sensations on the contrary. felt as though my appetite had been appeased.
 The next day I began to use Postum regularly and before the first package had been entirely used I discovered the most encouraging symptoms. The dys- pepsia and headaches which I had been subject to daily. entirely disappeared, also the distressing vomiting spells. The bowels improved steadily and regularly.
 I ate cautiously but was sustained by the Postum Coffee, After the first pack age tried it with milk. then wi h cream, without experiencing the least inconven- fence. Of course I was delighted and the future looked bright. From that first ex- perience up to date my health has been splendid. have increased in weight from f3s to 1s7 pounds, and can digest anything desire. can say honestly and chse,fuliy that l would recommend Postum to any one suffering the tortures sf dyspepsia"

WOMAN DERIDEs sENoRITAs.
Most Homsly American Girl Pretty
 as Most Beautiful Spaniard'n

Washington Special to New York World.
 The most homely American girl Is as writes Mrs. Sol Berliner. wife of the Uni ted States Consul at Teneriffe. Canary Islands. to a friend here in a caustic iet- ter on the people at her husbands post
 The letter treats vigorously of the Spaniards in office, of the English resi- dents and of many other topics. If 1t ever gets back to Teneriffe there will be a so- cial war. Mrs. Berliner was Washing ton girl and was married last summer. She says in part in the letter:
 would rather be with the natives than with them. They come here the most un- tidy people ever saw, make their living and pile up little out of these people, abuse them and then go to England They are very much disliked here. When a Spaniard speaks of Los Ingieses' 1t is with contempt.
 Now let me tell you of our Spanish beauties. They have coffee or chocolate in bed at 8 o'clock and having nothing better to do. lie there until time to dress for what they call II o'cloek breakfast. but it Is really dinner. for they have soup. hsh, meats, vegetables, desserts. fruits. etc.
 hair until evening, when they dress and powder their faces until they look white washed. Then they sit by the window or balcony waiting to be admired or waiting for their 'noblos, sweethearts. who must not come into the house until the engage ment. but who stand outside, night after night as if holding up the side of the house.
 They do not work and never take ex- ercise. and where Is their beauty? There may be few pretty girls here. but they are rare. Fancy girls who take no exer- else and whose minds are not developed beyond music and dress. and who. al though they are by nature deathly pale. insist upon putting powder by the pound on their faces. old and young just the same; and besides. they all try to initiate the saintly look.
 But the trouble all lies with politics. The civil governors know they may be here for the length of time their party has control. but the parties often, ex- change places. For instance. the last governor came with his entire family from Madrid, and was here but six weeks when the party of the present governor took the lead. and he was recalled. So they simply tSy to make all the money thev can while here and do not interest themselves more than necessary.%

| Tablets, the new catarrh cure, has met | with such success that today 1t can be | found in every drug store throughout the United States and Canada.
 To be sure a large amount of advertis- | ing was necessary in the first instance to 1 bring the remedy to the attention of the public but everyone familiar with the subject knows that advertising alone never made any article permanently sue cessful It must have in addition abso- lute, undeniable merit. and this the new catarrh cure certainly possesses in a marked degree.
 Physicians who formerly depended upon inhalers sprays and local washes or oint- ments. now use Stuart's Catarrh Tablets. as one of the most prominent stated, these tablets contain in pltasant. convenient form all the really efficient catarrh reme-i dies. such as red gum, blood root and similar antiseptics.
 They contin no cocaine nor opiate and are given to little children with entire safety and benefit.
 Dr. j. J. Reitiger. of Covington. Ky, says: II suffered from catarrh in my head and throat every fall, with stoppage of the nose and irritation in the throat affecting my voice and often extending to the stomach, causing catarrh of the stomach. l bought fifty cent package of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets at my drug gist' E, carried them in my pocket and used them faithfully. and the way in which they cleared my head and throat was certainly remarkable. I had no ca tarrh last winter and spring and consider myself entirely free from any catarrhal trouble.
 Mrs Jerome Ellison. of Wheeling. W. Va. writes: "I suffered from catarrh nearly my whole life and last winter my two children also suffered from catarrhal colds and sore throat so much they were out of school a large portion of the win ter My brother who was cured of ca tarrhal deafness by using Stuart's Ca tarrh Tablets urged me to try them so much that 1 did so and am truly thank fui for what they have done for myself and my children. always keep hox of the tablets in the house and at the first appearance of a cold or sore throat we nip 1t in the bud and catarrh Is no longer a household afiictioh with us'
 Full sized packages of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are sold for fifty cents at all druggists.
