TOBACCO FACTORY
 MAY COME HERE
U. s. TOBACCO COMPANY WANTS LOCATION AND 500 WOMEN AND GIRLS TO WORK IN THEIR FAC TORY,

Birmingham may get cigar factory which will employ 600 women. Secretary Gibson of the Commercial club has been in communication with the United States Tobacco company of Philadelphia In re- gard to the erection of large factory here, and he believes that Birmingham has a fair chance of securing the indus try.
 The only conditions that are hard to fill are the suitable location for the plant and the securing of 600 girls and women. MT. Gibson says that the company wants number of acres and on street car line which will make the plant easily ac- cessible to the business center of the city. He thinks this can be secured.
 The condition which is really the hard- est to fill is in regard to the women. He, however, believes that they will be able to secure enough girls and women, as the work is light and comparatively well paved.

1S HERE are people who object to the use of any proprietary medicine on
 the suspicion that spirits may have been used in it's manufacture.
 Even Peruna has not altogether escaped such criticism. But people who have taken Peruna, who have known of the benefits of Peruna by actual experience. know how utterly unfounded such notions are concerning Peruna. When the tre>s- urer of the National Prohibition Voters league comes out in a public statement to the effect that words fall to express his praise for Peruna and for the manu- facturers of Peruna, it must appear to every candid mind how utterly irrational it is to suppose that any objection could be raised against Peruna from the stand point of temperance.
 Every great success is sure to make enemies. Peruna is a great success, and through jealousy and envy much has been said calculated to prejudice the public against it.
 But those who have taken Peruna know better The vast multitude of people who have been cured of catarrh in some form by Peruna will never cease to praise Pe- runa for the benefits received Hon. George w. Mcbride, ex-United States senator from Oregon. from the Dewey hotel, Washington, D. C., writes "The excellence of Peruna for catarrh and colds has been so satisfactorily estap- lished by many of my acquaintances who have been relieved by it's use that I unhesitatingly indorse it's curative quali- l ties."-George W. Mcbride.
