EXCHANGE OF BOOKS
STATE DEPosITARY EXPLAINS
 THE LAW.
Dealers Will Receive Books of Same Grade if Not Mutilated. and Are Not Too
 Old,

In an interview with a representative of The Advertiser yesterday Ed c. Fowl CT, of the Ed c. Fowler Company. the designated depository of uniform text books to be used in the counties in the southern half of Alabama, explained sev- eral mooted questions in regard to the exchange of old books for those which are to be used under the new law. If a person brings to any designated depository said MT. Fowler 'an old book to be exchanged for one of the new ly adopted books, he must present a cer- tifcate from a teacher stating that the book has been in use within the past twelve months.
 <'The book presented for exchange must be of a grade corresponding to the grade of the book which the person wishes to purchase. As an example, if a customer brings to the depository third reader of any edition with certificate that 1t has been in actual use during the past twelve months and wishes to exchange 1t for a third reader of the new adoption, pay ing the difference in price. the dealer must make the bargain. But the dealer must not receive a third reader in ex. change for a second or a fourth reader, but must demand payment in full for the book desired
 'The publishers know, of course, that all second hand books are badly defaced with pencil and with ink, but the dealer must receive them, no matter how badly they are damaged in this way.
 But I advise the managers of the de- positories to take in exchange only those volumes from which no pages have been removed. This feature of the business should be closely watched, or otherwise dealers are apt to have quite number of books left on their hands as the pub fishers will not give credit for any old books which have been partially de- StrOyed,"

DEFIEs THE GOVERNMENT.
Mrs Kate Kealy Refuses to Vacate
 Her House.

Annapolis, Md, Sept. 4.-Mrs Kate C. kealy has circumvented a plan of the Government authorities to secure peace ful possession of the house which she oc- cupies in the new grounds of the Naval Academy. Mrs. Kealy always left home at a certain hour for church and plans were made to close the gates of the grounds so she would be unable to re- enter, but she scented danger and re- mained at home.
 The Government does not desire to lay violent hands on a woman, yet stronger action against her will now probably be taken. For five days her water supply has been cut off, and it seems she is ready to die in her castle to maintain her rights as she conceives them to be. She means to remain in possession until the Gov ernment pays her for the house.
 In 1892 her husband died without a will The estate was divided and a house on the lot where the present house stands was assigned to Mrs. kealy as part of her dover. When the estate was divided 1t was found that there were so many debts that some of the property had to be sold to pay them. Mrs. Kealy's home was one of the houses that was sold. John Mulhall bought it but was never able to secure possession.
 When the property was condemned by the Government for the use of the Naval Academy. Mulhall was paid the amount awarded by them, but Mrs. Kealy refused to recognize the legality of the purchase.

Will Ler,uce Prevent sm.,noxY

Lettuce is an absolute preventive Of
smallpox. No one is in the least par
ucle OF danger of catching smallpox
VINO eats a little lettuce every day.
Smallpox belongs to the scorbutic class
OF diseases. Sailors at sea, deprived
or fresh vegetables, get scurvy. Sour
w is typical scorbutic disease. Small
pox is another. Smallpox always RACES
during the winter season, when the
poor people are deprived of fresh veg
etable foods. Celery and onions are
good for this purpose, but there Is
such a long interval between their be-
Ing gathered and being eaten that they
lose most Of their anti-scorbutic prop
critics. Lettuce is served shortly after
1t IS picked, and hence contains the
valuable properties which will prevent
smallpox. We say without the least
hesitation or reserve that lettuce will
prevent smallpox. 1t is a thousand
times better than vaccination. 1t has
no liabilities, like vaccination, to pro-
duce other diseases. We are willing to
stake our professional reputation on
the broad statement that anyone who
cats lettuce daily will not catch small
pox, whether he be yaccinated or not.
