 BUTTON BITTEN Button, Button, Who's Got
 the Bulton?" LOVEMAN, JOSEPH & LOEB'S Mysterious Men May Make Man or Maid Multi-milionaire or Mil ion-ess. Mayhap More or
 Mayhap a--Miss.
LOVEMAN, Jl)SEPH & L0EB'S

Loveman, Joseph & Loeb who have done so much in the way or enterprlSeu advertising, are out with plan that TOT unioueneSs and cleyerness Is about the best thing that the Age-Herald reporter has ever seen. It is so much better than the calendar idea which they conducted three or four years ago, and the rebus contest of last year, that there is no com pairing them
 About three years ago they issued large number of calendars bearing serial number, and each day a half dozen of these numbers were drawn, and the announcement of the lucky numbers were made exclusively in the Age-Her- aid. Thousands of people throughout the city and county watched and read the Age-Herald and the advertisements of Loveman, Joseph & Loeb to see If their numbers were among the lucky ones, and the result was that Loveman, Joseph x Loeb, who had heretofore advertised oc- casonally in the Age-Herald, became one of it's firmest and strongest friends, and to this day have advertised unin- terruptedly, paying at the same time one of the largest advertising bills to the Age-Herald of all papers and advertisers
 The Button idea which has been evolved is one of the most fascinating A great number of buttons have been printed and will soon be circulated The button is most dttractlVely gotten up, DedflnB picture of the store with wording on top, "Loveman, Joseph & Loeb." and at the bottom, Christmas Presents for Every body" But the great attraction will be in the fact that each button bears a different number. These buttons will be given to everybody who applies. As the hge-Herald reporter gets the idea, hun dred or so presents will be selected to be given to people who wear these buttons and the lucky ones will be determined by chance-everyone will have an oppor- tunity. The button is designed to be worn On the lapel of mans or womans coat or dress. After they have all been given out, Loveman Joseph & Loeb will hire half dozen men or women, whose busi- ness it will be to walk through all the streets and avenues of Birmingham and notice the numbers of the buttons worn by the different people, and when they find one of the lucky numbers will say, Madam or Sir" and pull out crisp thousand dollar bll--or hundred dollar bill as the case may be. and hand it to the holder of the lucky button Or if the button for that number calls for a prize of a bed room suit he will hand a receipt from Lovsman. Joseph & Loeb for the suit. It is needless to say that Birmingham will be button crazy inside of a fortnight. Everybody will want a button, and everybody can get button by simply calling at the store.

WANT REGIMENTAL
 POSITIONS MARKED
CONTEMPORARIES ASK SECRETARY OF WAR ROOT TO HAVE POSI- TON OF coNFEDERATES AT GETTYSBURG DESIGNATED.

In one of the articles from Confeder- ate veterans appearing in the Age-Herald attention was called to the fact that the positions of Confederate infantry regi- ments at Gettysburg were not marked by tablets, as has been done where the Unit ed States regiments were stationed.
 A copy of this article was forwarded to Secretary of War Root at Washington with a suggestion that it might be well to mark these places as matters of history and that it should be done in the near future before all those who were at the battle were passed away. The following reply was received from Secretary Root:
 ''War Department, Washington.
 November IS. 1903. Dear Sir: Your letter of 14th instant, with printed copy of newspaper article concerning the marking of Gettysburg battlefield, was duly received and referred to the chairman of the Gettysburg Ma tional Military Park commission for re- mark, the outcome of which will be promptly communicated to you
 "Very respectfully.
 "ELIHU ROOT,
 'secretary of War. "W. H. Houghton, Esq,
 f1fSL NaIlOndl bdih
 'Blrmingham Alabama" The matter will be watched with great interest by Confederate veterans, as well as historians and many who were on the other side in the war, and any action Of the government towards marking the po- sitions of the Confederate regiments will be considered as an effort to preserve the bietorv of the great fight.
 The matter will not be dropped, as there are a number of people in the south espe- cially who are interested in It and will take it up. People who have visited the battlefield have noted this failure to mark the location of the Confederate regiments and it has greatly decreased the ability to study the battle and the causes and effects of certain movements of the troops.

 Never wait for the car to stop-get off with your face to the rear. This is a free country.
 In the event of collision at the Twen- tieth street crossing jump out of the win dow and turn to the right. If you have a seat sit there and read your paper till the type comes off. You need never notice anybody. If you chew tobacco lit the flap from the window sill and spit in the motor. The floor is reserved for those who ride on passes.
 Do not speak harsh words to the con- ductors They are fresh from our Ala bama farm. Experience unnecessary. Correspondence solicited. To insure prompt service carry an alarm clock in your pocket. Our bells some times fail to work. A revolver would not be amiss.
 For light reading examine our weeklies found near every seat. The motormen will explain the jokes. He has key in his locker.
 Do not ask for transfers unless you are strapped. It annoys the conductors, de- lays the game and gums up the cards. Do not make inquiries about the sched- ules They are our private property.

THE INCREASE AND DECREASE
 OF THE HUMAN RACE

The average duration of human life is 33 years. One-quarter of the people die before attaining six years of age, one half before attaining sixteen, and about one person of each hundred reaches the age of sixty-fve. Deaths occur at the rate of 67 per minute, 97.7oo per day and B. .e39. .S35 per year: births at 70 per minute 100 800 per day and 36, 792, 900 per year If the majority of people would take Dr. Burkhart,s Vegetable Compound, the above record would be materially chang ed. There would be fewer deaths, more births and there would be greater long evity of life. Thirty days treatment 25c. All druggists. Six months guaranteed treatment $1.00.

FIREMEN AT THEATRES.
Chief MuIIin Considering Advisabillty
 of Putting One at Each Place.

Chief Mulln of the fire department Is seriously considering the advisability of stationing a fireman in each of the thea tres every night in order to lessen the danger from fire. This was done up to about a year ago, but owing to a com plaint by the manager of one of the houses it was stopped.
 At the theatres in the evening there are frequently from 1000 to 5000 persons, and in case of fire panic might ensue. Under these cifenmstafees cool-headed fireman who would be quick to act might prevent great loss of lfe. and probably property.
 If he should decide to again begin the practice he will detail two men each night, one for each of the theatres.

 The steam heating plant has not put on as much pressure as the boiler in the building formerly did but it is more uni- form and can be better regulated.

THE AMERICAN INVASION.

of the Americans Largely
In Evidence.

For many years past London has
been given up to Americans in August
and September" says a writer in an
English weekly. at is true that there
may be million Inhabitants left in
London to every thousand of American
visitors, but that does not prevent the
ftutter OF blue wells obscuring the little
union jack on the foremasts of the
Road-Car' busses and the accents OF
the American girl. like the laughter
OF Lalage, coming round every corner
from Westminster Abbey to the board
ing houses of Bloomsbury, and the
scarlet Of Baedeker showing up royalty
against smart tailormade skirts suit
able for the moors. This year the in
vasion of shirt waists and gossamers
was rivaled by crowding in OF Amer
lean books during our dead August
and September season. Some of the
books, like some of the girls, are ex-
tremely charming, though more than
one variety of them is in danger of
being Overdone. There is, for exam
pie. the Eben Holden line. in which
the American equivalent of a duchess
takes tramp children into her family
or smiles with approval when her son
makes love match with the daughter
of local undesirable.
This is run hard by the Lives-of-the-
Hunted line, In which a man goes out
shooting with very expensive rifle.

that he may study the engaging WAYS

That a live animal is more interesting
than a dead one is reiterated at short
intervals, although as Mark Twain
might have observed a living lion is
not always better than a dead dog
But. clearly, the thing for him to do
is not to throw his rifle into the lake
but go home and buy an airship. which

which deals with Higher Thought
