A weed is q plant that grows In

plant may become a weed by escaping
from cultivation. Many plants thar
with us are highly esteemed in other
countries grow as weeds, while, on the
other hand, our weeds are in other
countries sometimes highly priced.
The correct use Of the word depends
altogether on circumstances.

due to the restrictions upon the en-

MR. E. 6. FOWLER, OUR
 LOCAL DRUGGIST,
Says That the Wonderful Popularity of YinOl Ia Due to Intrinsic
 Merit.

"The intrinsic merit of this new cod flyer oil preparation, Vinol." said MT. Fowler. lis beginning to be realized by the people of Montgomery. Of course in my position as a druggist, I have seen tnnumerable medicines and pro- prietary articles introduced, but never In my long experience have I ever would produce more beneficial results than Vinol.
 T attribute this to the fact that Vinol contains in a concentrated form all the medicinal clements contained in cod liver oil. actually taken from fresh cods' livers, but without a drop of oil or grease to nauseate and upset the stomach, and 1t contains no sickening
 "A prominent physician writes: 'Vinol is the most valuable preparation of cod liver oil known to medicine. It is of untold value to create strength and build up the general system for old people, weak women and children, and 1t has no equal for hard colds, bron- chial and all lung affections.
 'Tn cases where cod liver oil emul- sions and other tonics fail, Vinol will heal strengthen and cure.
 There are hundreds of people right here in Montgomery who can testify that there is nothing equal to Vinol 10 make rich, red blood, to increase the appetite, cure stomach troubles. give strength and renewed vitality to the aged, build up the run down, tired and chronic coughs, colds and build up the canvalescent.
 we freely offer to return your money in every case where Vinol fails. Try it on this guarantee" E. G. Fowler, Druggist.

Above All Look Reflned

The great thing for girl Is to LOOK refined. Men-those, in the matrimonial market, at least---value highly sweet, spiritual face, the type of beauty that is like a flower and not like a garish cotton imitation of a blossom. The cotton imitation may be showier and look handsomer in the glare of the foot lights. but the real flower has the perfume.N
 I am talking this way because I saw on the street two girls. both pretty and both, strange to say, of about the same type. One was dressed in a velveteen suit a little in need of brushing. She wore an enormbus frizzly pompadour. and on this was perched a large hat with dropping feathers. Her cheeks were powdered pink. and loud spot ted veil completed her posteresqe ap- pearance.
 The other girl wore her hair parted. beautifully waved and brushed and drawn into a loose, shiny coil. There was no suggestion of rat or of un- combed frizziness. Her face was smoothly powdered with cream powder, but it was so nicely done that only a woman's eye could have suspected it on account of the velvetiness of her complexion. She wore a brown cloth costume carefully fitted and with a neat little tulle bow under her plump chin. Her hat was small and perched forward at a dainty angle. Her shoes and gloves were immaculate.
 Now, the features of these girls were pretty nearly alike, but their different

BRUNER-DEY.
Pretty Church Wedding Ceremony Oc- curn In EYerEreen.

Pretty Church Wedding Ceremony De-
 CUTS In Evergreen.
 Evergreen, Nov. 5.-(Special "A so- cial event of more than passing inter est occurred Wednesday evening. when Dr. P. M. Bruner, Jr, and Miss Jes- sica Dey, youngest daughter of Mir. and Mrs. F. E. Dey. were united in marriage at the Presbyterian Church.
 The wedding was solemnized by Rev. E. A. Smith and was witnessed by many friends. The church had been beautifully decorated with palms, ferns and smilax, an arch of smilax and white chrysanthemums supporting the wedding bell of white carnations, un- der which the party stood. As the bridal party entered the church. Mem deIssohn's wedding march pealed forth under the skilled touch of Mrs. Arthur Cunningham. First came the ushers, w. B. Ivey, Walter Wild, Henderson Crook and J. Harry Dey, followed by the bridesmaids. Then came the maid of honor, Miss Edith Dey, who entered just in advance of the bride. The groom with his best man, George M. Bruner, of Montgomery. entered from the side aisle, and awaited the ent- rance of the bride, who now come, at- tended by her father. She was a wilson of girlish loveliness in her bridal robe of crepe de chine and rose point

Summary of Results of Ultra-vioiet
 Rays in Twenty-seven Cases.


 Summary of Results of Ultra-vioiet
 Rays in Twenty-seven Cases.
 In a recent issue of The Medical Record Julius Rosenberg supplements 0 former contribution by giving an ad- ditional series of twenty-seven cases treated by means of the ultra-violet rays, He considers these rays as remedial agents of the greatest value, especially for the reief of pain. The cases reported cover very wide range of material, and the results were en. couraginE in nearly all instances. The author employs a thirty-fve ampers arc with mirror refiectors. and attaches importance to the use of iron-carbon electrodes,
 '@rhe ultraviolet rays obtained in this way" he says. "are specific re- medy in acute muscular pain, such as lumbago, torticollis, and pleurodynia. In cases of acute and chronic neuritis these rays will always relieve pain, Ano in most cases. especially acute forms. powers of the chemical light rays are easily demonstrated in inf1ammatory conditions of the skin of parasitic origin. In ache and furunculosis the curative effect Is both prompt and cer- tain. The results in rheumatic arthri- ifs have not been encouraging, thus differing from those reported by Ger man authors. This may in part be due to the limited number of treatments nermftted In acute and chronic plnu- risy and bronchitis the application pf the ultraviolet rays Is undoubtedly beneficial, and it is also possible that these rays could be of assistance in the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis.

applique, which accentuated her fair young beauty. She carried bride roses and her veil was held in place by a handsome diamond and pearl brooch the gift of the groom.
 Miss Edith Dey was gowned in shiun- mering white silk and carried pink car nations. The maids wore dainty cre- ations of white Paris muslin; they also carried pink carnations.
 At the conclusion of the ceremony and as the party left the church, Loh- engrin's bridal chorus was rendered by chorus of giriish voices, accompa- nied by Mrs. Cunningham and Mrs Cullen Dean on the organ and violin. A special feature was the entrance of Company K, the local military, in uni- form. who occupied pews reserved near the bridal party. This was a pret- ty compliment to pr. Bruner, who has long been Captain of this company.
 Imediately after the ceremony the bridal party and many invited guests repaired to the pretty home which the groom had in readiness for his bride, and here congratulations and many good wishes were extended. During the evening each guest registered in the Brides Book"
 Many elegant presents were received. which attest the popularity of this young couple who begin their welded life under such bright auspices.
 Mir. and Mrs. Dey entertained the bridal party Tuesday evening.
 The out-of-town guests were: MT. and Mrs. W. F. Mel. Misses Ethel Pitcher and Mildred Jones. and Mir. c. NJ. Bruner of Montgomery; Misses Ora Thames. Virginia Powell, Minnie Neu- mann and Mir. c. B. Herbert of Green- vile; Dr. Pettus Dey of Century, Fla.

AERIAL TESTS BEGIN
WORLDS FAIR CONTEST OPENS UP
 TO-DAY.
Air ships will Endeavor to Cover Ten Mile Course at Rate of Twen-
 ty Mah--The Entries.

r. St. Louis, Nov. 6.--Unless the weather conditions interfere. the greatest demonstration of air ships in the history of the world will take place at the worlds fair beginning to- morrow.
 Housed in the aredioum are five ffy- ing machines, embodying as many diff ferept principals and varying in size from the monster airship invented and built by Hippolyte Fricoi of Paris, France. with its immense gas bag con- taining 65 900 cubic feet of hydrogen gas. to the comparatively small bal- loon belonging to A. l.. Reynolds, of Los Angeles, California, which, when full flying inflated has a capacity of only 5000 cubic feet.
 In principle of propulsion the afr ships vary as widely as they do In size. Two of them come to the worlds fair with records of successful flights. one of which, the Baldwin California Arrow has demonstrated here on twt occasions, that 1t Is dirigible and not depending upon currents of air for it's momentum.
 Tomorrow the first flight is sched- uled in the contest for the grand prize of $100,o00 offered by the Louisiana Exposition Company under the follow ing conditions:
 Course to be T. shaped. start to be mado at the angle of L and the length of the full course not less than ten miles, nor more than fifteen.
 Numbers of trials allowed unlim- tied, butfeach competitor must make the full course at least three times. "The winning time shall be the av- craze of the three best trips, provided that this average time be at least twenty nah.
 The last qualification has so proved the stumbling block to the various | aerionauts now at the worlds fair. | They claim that the rate of speed is excessive and impossible to attain for so great a distance.
 M. Fricois, whose gigantic aerial vessel will make a formal trip tomor- | row for the $100.000 prize declares l that the speed requirement. will not l affect his chances, as his airship has | made a record of twenty-five mahs | and is capable, the inventor declares. of maintaining a speed of thirty mahs
 under most favorable conditions. Captain Baldwin has announced that he will make a flight either tomorrow
 or Tuesday and while his machine will
 not cover the prescribed course as a | contestant for the grand prize, Cap- | tain Baldwin, will instruct A. Roy
 Knabes of Toledo. Ohio. his navigator
 to sail over an arranged course for a
 test of the speed his airship is capa-
 ble of developing and upon the out
 come of this trial will rest Captain Baldwin's entry for the grand prize. In addition to Francois. Baldwin's and Reynolds flying machine the aerial
 craft invented by Thomas c. Benbow. of Columbus Mont, and B. F. Berry, 1 of St. Louis. will make q sensational
 scene during the week.
