A surprisingly large number Of per-
sons suffer from sores" Of one sort Or
another along the course OF the shin
bone or ankles-sores which persist
emily refuse to heal.
These persons are often, although
not always, in very fair state Of
health otherwise, and the fact that
scratch or the bite Of a mosquito may
have had such asequelnot infrequently
affects them with surprise, If not with
alarm, says Youths Companion.
1t is true that diseases of the blood,
the liver and other organs are some
times responsible for ulcers on the ex-
tremities, but when that is the case
other evidence Of the existence Of such
diseases is seldom wanting.
Ulcers are most common on the leg
because the return circulation is here
most impeded by gravity. The return
flow Of blood from the feet Is accom-
plished by the force of the blood driven
by the heart. in this case, downward.
Muscular activity aids the return flow
Of blood, and hence should be recon-
mended TO sufferers from this disorder.
An active circulation Is essential to the
rapid healing of any wound or sore,
since it is only by this means that the
waste matters are carried away faster
than they accumulate, and rebuilding
material supplied to repair the diseased
tissues.
In stout or elderly persons, by whom
active exercise is not SO easily accom-
plished, the circulation may be promo
ted by the use Of an elastic stocking or
bandage. Either Of these devices in
creases the local activity of the circula-
ton by the support which it affords
the return vessels, which are thus COM
pressed to smaller caliber. But the
elastic stocking or the bandage should
be only tight enough to effect the pur-
pose for which it is designed, and not
so tight as to interfere with the out
bound circulation. Such an effect
would be eyinced by blush or dusly
tint Of the skin Of the foot.
Bandaging should be begun below
the ankle so as to encircle both this and
the inSteP. An eiaAllc stOchlng knOulu
likewise be made long enough to in
clude these.
Ulcers Of the leg are properly treated
by applications Of healing ointments or
other indictments, such as would be
suitable were they situated elsewhere;
but, from the nature Of their location
support to the blood-vessels from the
toe TO the knee is also demanded. and
stimulation Of the circulation Of the
oart Is invariably reauirac

NEW COUNTRY CLUB
CAPITAL CITY TO HAVE ONE I,
 NEAR FUTURE.
Handsome Club House Will Be Located on Garter Hill Road Near Residence of
 G. W. Craik.

The Capital City will have modern, up- to-date country club the opening of the new year. This is now a certainty.
 The members of the Tennis and Golf Club have known for some time that they would be unable to renew their lease upon their present grounds at Cloverdale for another year. and have had a committed quietly at work the past sixty days to secure another location.
 The committee has investigated num- Der of propositions and carefully visited several locations offered. but have at last unanimously decided upon what is known as the Howe Place, about two miles from the Court Square on the Carter Hill Road just beyond the beautiful country resi- dence of MT. c. W. Craik.
 Upon four acres on the left hand side of the road, in a beautiful grove of oaks a 5000 club house of modern architecture and up-to-date conveniences, will Do built Nearby and in full view from It's wide piazzas will be the tennis courts and bowl ing alley of the club. Across the road upon a rolling meadow of one hundred acres or more, will be located the goli links. Suitable driveways will be provided so that visitors may watch the contestants at various stages of the game, and pri- yate drive through to the Woodley Road will also be arranged. The club member ship, 1t Is understood, will be limited, but one hundred members have already ex- pressed desire to join.
 The Tennis and Golf Club held an enthu- siastic meeting fast night to hear the re- port of the special committee and perfect further details.
 The committee consists of r. B. Fisk, w. M. Marks, Phares Coleman. R. E. Sci bels, L. L. Gilbert and L. J. Cassells.

Leases Declared Invalid.

Muscogee. I. T.. July IA decision has been handed down by Judge c. W. Ray mond United States Judge for the Wes- tern District of Indian Territory on 300,O 900 acres of Creek Indian lands. Judge Ray mond holds that the parent of an Indian has no right to lease the land of his mi nor children, unless he has by due course of legal process been made the legal guar dian Cases where the parent has been made the legal guardian of his children are rare in the extreme, hence thousands of acres allotted to minors that have been leased by their parents have been let IT, regularly. and the lease will not stand. Tn the Creek nation there are 3.702, ,000 acres of land. Of this 100000 acres have been leased to outsiders. It is roughly es- tmated that about 100000 acres have been leased legally. and that the remainder Is now held by persons who can be removed bv minors going before the Indian agent and demanding possession of their amount.

majority of the voters of Coffee want the court house at Enterprise and have shown this desire by signing the removal peti- ton.
 The petition which has been presented to the Governor Is said to have 4,oUl names signed to 1t, more names than there are qualified voters in Coffee Coun- ty. The friends of Enterprise claim that their town Is favored by majority of all classes of voters.
 Upon the filing of the petition several days ago the Governor set yesterday as the date for hearing upon It..
 Both sides were represented by legal talent. For Enterprise and the petition, W. O. Murphy of Geneva and Solfie and Kirkland of ozark appeared. Elba,s in- terests were looked after by Riley and wilkerson of Elba, J. G. Sanders of Elba and Judge J. M. Chiffon of Montgomery.
 In the delegation for Eiba were Mayor A. V. Buck. Malcolm Carmichael, Mar tin Ferriss, J. D. Blue, John H. Wilker- son. J. F. Sanders Dr. J. D. Blue, I. F. Low. F. P. Rainier, Sheriff D. D. Knight. A. NJ. owen, L. D. Watts. W. H. Hol- loway. J. T. Carlisle, J. P. Rawles, w. O. Peacock and W. T. Edwards.
 The legal representatives of Elba of fered several objections to the act and the petition.
 They ciafmed, frst. that the act provid- ing for the court house election con- tained penal provisions and therefore did not go into effect until thirty days after the final adjournment of the Legislature; second, that the act was indefinite in its first section and that it was therefore un- constitutional; third, that 1t was uncon- stitutionai because 1t left to the Governor to decide whether the petition was made in good faith and therefore conferred leg islative authority upon the Governor.
 It was agreed that twelve or fifteen days should elapse before any action should be taken upon the petition, in which time written briefs are to be filed

SPIRITED COURT HOUSE
 FIGHT ON IN COFFEE
Effort to Have Court House Removed from Elba to Enterprise, Petition to Order Election
 Now Before the Governor.

Coffee County Is in the throes of court house fight waged between Enterprise and Elba. The contest is now before the Gov ernor who has the authority to order an election by the voters of the County to decide whether the court house shall re- main at Elba or be removed to Enter prise.
 A largely signed petition praying the Governor to order a special election has been presented to the Governor by the friends of Enterprise. On tpis hearing of this petition strong delegations from both Enterprise and Elba were before the Governor yesterday. The Mayors of both towns were in the delegation.
 The Elba delegation raised a number of legal objections to the petition. At the request of the Enterprise representatives the Governor announced that he would suspend action upon the petition for twelve or fifteen days in order that writ ten briefs might be filed touching the contested points.
 The action for the removal of the court house was taken under the statutory pro- vision which authorizes the Governor to order a special court house election upon the petition of majority of the qualified voters of the County If he believes that the petition was made in good faith. The constitutionality of this law has been at- tackled by the representatives of Elba.
 The court house has been at Elba for over fifty years. For Elba it Is claimed that the town is very nearly in the geo. graphical center of the County, much nearer the center than is Enterprise. IL is said that those having business at the County seat have found 1t convenient to go to Elba during the past half century. The erection of a new and modern court house has been undertaken.
 The friends of Enterprise enthusiastic cally claim that the town is the commer- ciai center of the County. They claim that the town is thriving and growing :,nd that many more of the citizens of Coffee come to Enterprise than visit Elba. They further claim that an overwhelming

 A novel incident of the review was the appearance of Santos Dumont in an air ship over Long Champs. He saluted the President with three strident blasts from the whistle of hls motor and with a salvo of revolver shots. Then, amid the ap- plause of the spectators. the aeranaut sailed off rapidly to his headquarters at Putneaux.
