For the Shoppers of Montgomery and
 Vicinity.

Vicinity.
 That Montgomery Is sure enough metropolitan city, there is no longer a question. The large volume of advertis- ing in today's issue of The Advertiser tells the story more eloquently than any, thing else that co i'd Le said.
 Montgomery has long since passed the stage when its merchants advertised only on Sunday for the weeks business. It is now an established custom with quite number of the city's leading merchants to daily tell their store news through the columns of The Advertiser to the pur- chasing public.
 Especially does the feature prevail with the large dry goods house of Nachman X Meertief. For more than three years this ever alert and prosperous concern has published a daily forecast of splendid bargains for the shopping public. That this advertising has paid and that the business of this wide-a-wake concern has prospered is best evidenced by the hosts of shoppers that daily visit the store in response to their liberal offerings.
 For several weeks Nachman & Meertief have used an unusually large amount of space for their store news. and this morning nearly a full page Is employed | This advertisement contains much val uable news for the economic shopper and an extra large crowd will doubtless take advantage of this money-saving oppor- tunity.

B' MAI BRITH LITERARY
 ENTERTAINMENT

The last of the interesting series of lit- erary and musical evenings arranged by the Literary Committee of the B'nai Birth took place on Sunday evening in the vestry rooms of the Jewish Temple and it was as they have all been pro- nounced success.
 In spite of the indictment weather a full attendance gathered to enjoy the intellec- nal feast prepared for them.
 The first number on the program was a violin sole by Master Jerome Simon. a bright little lad of only eight years, who is already declared, by those who are capable of judging, to be a musical won- der.
 The second number was a lecture by MT. Clifford A. Lanier on Relation of Hrt to Life" It was handled in a mas terful manner. It was interesting and educating. MT. Lanier dwelt upon Tolstoi and his work on art. He held up to men, tal eye the doctrines of the wonderful old man whose life the world is now watch ing as it goes out
 The third number was a piano solo by Master Leo Dreyfus, gifted young mu- sician of nine years. who gives promise of future in the musical world.
 The fourth number was a recitation by Mrs. Leon Well, "Absolution." She brought out beautifully the touching story told in it.
 The fifth number was a piano duett by Misses Cecile Loeb and JCliet Gassen- heimer, and was very much enjoyed.
 Last on the program was a lecture on Zionism, by Miss Julia Moses. This number was greeted with greatest inter- est. and her able presentation of the sub 1ect for and against brought forth earn est discussion from several present.
 This series of meetings under the au- spices of the B'nai Rrith has been one of the most important features in the lite Tary life of Montgomery during the past winter, and it will be regretted that they have come to an end.

II consider DR.. Williams Pink Pills

The after-effects of feyers and other
acute diseases are frequently worse
than the ailment itself and the utmost
care is required during this stage in
order that permanent evils de not re-
suit. The system is worn out in its
long struggle with the disease: the
blood is impoverished and the nerves
weakened. Vitality is low. The blood
needs to be purified and supplied with
the elements to build up me wasted
tissues, the nerves need a tonic to
strengthen them. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People will do this as
no other medicine will. They are an
unfailing specific not only for the af-
ter-effects of fevers, of grip and of
other acute diseases, but also for such
diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial
paralysis, st. Vitas' dance, Seiatica,
