AnImaIs on the Sen.

"A French scientist has made many i'm teresting observations on the behavior of va- rous wild animals aboard ship" says The American Inventor. Those species whom one should naturally think would not ob- ject to 8 sea voyage are the most restless. The polar bear. he says. Is the only one that takes to the sea, and Is quite jolly when aboard ship. All others violently resent a trip on water. and vociferously give vent to their feeling until seasickness brings si- lence. The tiger suffers most of all He whines pitifully, and rubs his stomach with his terrible paws. Horses are very bad sail ors and often perish on sea voyage. Oxen are heroic in their attempts not to give way to sickness. Elephants do not like the sea. but they are amenable to medical treatment. good remedy is a bucketfui of hot water containing three and half pints of whiskey and seven ounces of qui- nine.

TOM WATSON TALKS
POPULIST CANDIDATE TELLS OF
 HIS MAGAZINE.
Says Democratic Party Is Dead and Hopes To Lead Its Members In
 His Foot stepts In Fu-

Atlanta, Ga. Dec, 2A-Hon. Thomas E. Watson. the recent candidate for the presidency on the Peoples Party ticket was seen today by a representative of the Associated Press. and he made the following statement regarding his new magazine:
 T have just returned from New York where we have organized and had in- corporated a publishing company with
 capital stock of s125.000 which will have in charge the publication of my magazine.
 The publication is to be known as
 Tom Watsons Magazine" I will be
 editor in chief and my associate editor
 will be Dr. John H. Girdner, who was
 for many years Bryan's lieutenant in
 the east. MT. Charles c. DeFrance, of the Peoples Party executive commit tee will have charge of the circulation department. The editorial staff, man. agement and in fact the entire outfit
 will be composed of Populists and for mer Democrats. The first issue will appear Ferbary 20, 1s05."
 Speaking further of the magazine
 MT. Watson said that he was well
 satisfied with the staff of writers se- cured, and that besides the political,
 his publication would contain many features of interest.
 As to the political situation MT. Watson Said:
 "The campaign of 1904 Twas but a I prelude to the campaign of 1908. The | start had to be made, and it seemed | to me vital necessity to start at a | time when both the other parties were openly pledged to plutocracy and class Legislation. The Republicans stood pat for every evil of the present system which builds colossal fortunes upon the
 false basis of special privileges. The Democrats, led by place hunters and time sewers ravenous for the spells of offlce, shamelessly abandoned every De-
 mocratic principle and transferred their | standard to the hands of the gamblers, the monpolists and the Wall Street cor | porations. Atsuch time when both the old parties were down on their knees
 to class legislation, it seemed a high
 duty that some one preach the gospel
 of Equal rights to all!
 Instead of the Hamiltonian theory
 of Divine right of the few to govern
 and monopolize. believe as Jefferson
 and Lincoln did, in the rule of all for
 the benefit of all. As we'll as could
 l made the fight for Jeffersonian
 principles. All things considered, the l support I received was encouraging.
 Therefore I am resolved to devote the | next four years to a campaign of edu-
 cation, in which all governmental oues- | tions will be discussed and the citizens | brought to realize how ruinous to the
 masses are the present tendencies of
 municipal state and national legisla-
 tion."

SHORTAGE IS REDUCED
GOVERNOR HAS NEW REPORT ON
 JOHN CASE.
Additional Information secured by Ex- aminer Sedberry Shows that
 Mobiles Ex-Tax Collector is Due About S6,OOO.

A new report of Assistant State Ex- aminer G. F. sedberry on the alleged shortage of John Case, former Tax Col lector of Mobile, County. which will re- duce the amount claimed by the State to something less than ss.ooo. was sub- mitted yesterday to Acting Governor Cunningham.
 The report which Examiner sedberry made yesterday was verbal After Christmas the Governor will receive a written report of the last examination made on the books of Case. As yet the exact figures which now denote the amount of the alleged shortage are not made public, but the Governor said yesterday that the amount ranges be- tween $5,5oo and $s,ooo.
 In the interview with the Governor he seemed to indicate that the State Board of Compromise will offer the surety companies on the bond of John Case a proposition based on the debt to the State of the latter amount ting to about $6.000 without interest.
 Yes. MT. Sedberry made a verbal re. port to me of his examination of Cases books Saturday in Mobile" answered Governor Cunningham when questioned about the matter. He informs me that some new credit entries in favor of Case have been discovered since he made the first report on the books. "A new book was shown MT. Sedberry last Friday which appears to have thrown additional light on the matter This book contains a number of abate- ments which were allowed Collector Case by the Mobile County Board of Revenue. The items represent a credit to Case of between $2,500 and $3,000. I do not know why the book was miss- ing on the original examination. MT. Sedberry assures me that it was not available"
 The Governor added that 6 meeting of the Board of Compromise would most likely be held next Thursday, when definite action will be taken on an expected offer from G. T. Rosson, representing the Fidelity and Deposit Company of Maryland, and J. W. Gray of Bestor, Gray and Bestor, the com pany's counsel.
 It will be recalled that a suit is now pending in the Montgomery City Court against John Case filed by At torney General Massey Wilson a few weeks ago, to recover approximately $9,O00 from the defendant. If the Board of Compromise Thursday accepts the recent report of Examiner Sedberry and a compromise indicated before is | reached. the suit may be withdrawn. If no offer satisfactory to the Board Is forthcoming from the Surety Com pany the suit will be pressed

HUMoR A HANDICAP.
Keeps Fiuished Orators and Able
 Statesmen Out of once.

Statesmen Out of once.
 Senator Depew in Leslies Weekly.
 When I took the stump 1t was two weeks after was graduated from Yale, and George William Curtis was the fayorite orator. The slavery ques- tion was admirably suited to ms tenn perament and taste. His speech was highly polished, and he lectured, rath- CT than spoke, on very lofty and ideal ist plane. Tom Corwin possessed sim sular attractions on the stump De- cause of his humor. He kept audi ences in a continuous roar of laugh ter and was a vote-getter Of won derful power. He was one or the ablest men we ever had in public life, but his fumor killed him for great office. People would not take him se- riously.
 Garfield, who never joked or told a story, but was a great stump speaker on the serious side, told me that while anecdote and humor were always essential to the success of speech upon the platform, speaker practicing 1t would never attain high political preferment. He insisted that Americans distrusted a humorist and dearly loved and respected solemn bores and platitudinous Statesmen. He ascribed his success in life to the fact that he had so vigorously fought his own sense of humor that, as he said, he could not appreciate joke and was incapable of narrating an anec- dote. John Van Buren possessed a rare wit equal to that of Sidney Smith. Otherwise he was a dull speaker. He usuel1y talked about three hours. The audience would sit patiently waiting the few lightning flashes of wit which were sure to come forward toward the close of his speech.

WRONG IDEA.

Don't get the wrong idea into your head that starvation is good for Dys- pepsia.
 It's not.
 Those who have not studied the sub ject very deeply, or with trained scien- tific minds, might think so. But facts prove otherwise. All specialists in stomach and diges- | tive disorders know. that 1t is best for dyspepsia to be we'll fed. Why. dyspepsia Is really starvation diseasel
 Your food doesn't feed you. By starvation. you may give your bowels and kidneys less to do, but that does not cure your digestive trouble less likely to be permanently cured than ever. No. the only right way to permanent ly cure yourself of any form of dys- heartily of all the food that you find | best agrees with you, and help your di- gestion to work with Stuart's Dyspep- | sia Tablets.
 This Is a safe. certain. scientific. re- liable method of treatment. which will never fall to cure the most obstinate eases if .persevered in; gentle, tonic. refreshing effect on the secretory glands of the entire digestive tract.
 They gently force the flow of fresh digestive juices.
 They contain, themselves, many of the chemical constituents of these juices, thus when dissolved they help to dissolve the food around them in somach or bowels.
 fsey therefore quickly relieve all the symptoms of indigestion, and coax tho glands to take a proper pleasure in do- ing their proper work.
 They coax you back to health.
 No other medical treatment of any sort nor any rad system of Culture" or Cure" will give you the solid, per manent. curative results, that will Stu arts Dyspepsia Tablets.

What Sulphur Does
For the Human Body in Health and
 Disease.

For the Human Body in Health and Disease.
 The mention of sulphur will recall to many of us the early days when our mothers and grandmothers gave us our daily dose of sulphur and mo- lasses every spring and fall.
 It was the universal spring and fall blood purifier" tonic and cure-all, and mind you. this old-fashioned reme- dy was not without merit.
 The idea was good, but the remedy was crude and unpalatable, and large quantity had to be taken to get any effect.
 Nowadays we get all the beneficial effects, of sulphur in a palatable. con- centrated form. so that a single grain is far more effective than a table spoonful of the crude sulphur. In recent years, research and experi- ment have proven that the best sul- phur for medcianl use Is that obtained from Calcium Calcium Sulphide) and sold in drug stores under the nai--e of Stuart's Calcium Waters. They are small chocolate coated pellets and con- tain the active medicinal principle of sulphur in a highly concentrated. ef- fective form.
 Few people are aware of the value of this form of sulphur in restoring and maintaining bodily vigor and health; sulphur acts directly on the liver, and excretory organs and puri- | fies and enriches the blood by the prompt elimination of waste material Our grandmotners knew this when | they dosed us with sulphur and mo- | lasses every spring and fall. but the ] crudity and impurity of ordinary flow
 CTS of sulphur were often worse than the disease. and cannot compare with
 the modern concentrated preparations
 of sulphur. of which Stuarts Calcium
 Waters Is undoubtedly the best and
 most widely used.
 They are the natural antidote for liver and kidney troubles and cure constipation and purify the blood
 in a way that often surprises patient and physician alike.
 Dr. R. M. Wilkins while expert
 menting with sulphur remedies soon found that the sulphur from Calcium was superior to any other form. He says: For liver. kidney and blood troubles. especially when resulting from constipation or malaria. have been surprised at the results obtained from Stuart's Calcium Waters. In pa tients suffering from boils and pim- ples and even deep seated carbuncles, I have repeatedly seen them dry up and disappear in four or five days, leaving the skin clear and smooth AL though Stuart's Calcium Waters Is a proprietary article. and sold by drug gists, and for that reason tabooed by many physicians. yet I know of noth- ing so safe and reliable for constipa- tion, liver and kidney troubles and es- peciaIly in all forms of skin disease and this remedy
 At any rate people who art tired of pills, cathartics and so-called blood purifiers" will find in Stuart's Cal cium Waters, a far safer. more pala- table and effective preparation. -su-4t

 Some business has been placed in the West. In the South the Tennessee Company has secured 5000 tons of the 75.000 ton order of the Southern Rail- way, the balance going to Northern mills.
