A Queer Legal Decision.
he London Chronicle.

From the London Chronicle.
 The supreme court of Scotland has decided that flor the spread of the gospel or for any other good purpose my trus- tees see profitable for Gods sake is not a valid form of legacy.
 With one of those substleties which delight the legal mind, the court of ses- sion points out that "or' is distinctive, and therefore one clause does not help to interpret the other. The first ''proba- bly, means any religious purpose;" the second might mean a home for lost dogs;" both clauses are void from un- certinty." Therefore s1oooo goes to the residuary 1egatee.

THE KIND WEST WIND.

Just outside my window here, On a bough that sways and swings, Hangs a frail and filing thing, But deep enough and wide enough To shelter love, to cradle life. Brown breast broods and broods above The precious, pearly things that lie Half hden in her downy breast, While far a-field her mate, wing Their matin song makes haste to sing He sings for two to earth and sky Exultant, loud and mounting high Then softly soaring, settles near And coos and calls unto the nest. Brown breast stiers and one bright eye Is brought to bear upon her mate And murmuring she makes answer low T prithe dear one wait-oh, wait Col mount the tall trees tufted crest And see if but the wind be west
 For west winds rock the cradle best Then higher come and we shall see Go! sing and wing and happy be While I brood here for thee and me. So soft our sheltered place and space; So sweet the sky's blue, bending face And ahl the life that throps beneath And thrills me with an ecstacy-

MRS. CORY REPRESENTS ALABAMA U, D, c,

A beautiful compliment to one of Ala bama's brilliant women was in the selee- ton of Mrs. Chappell Cory of Birming- ham to represent the Alabama Daughters of the Confederacy at the reunion in Nashville the past week. By special invl- tation of the arrangement committee Mrs. Cory was invited to ride in the pro- cession as Alabama's representative, and as a special escort of the carriages con taining the distinguished women from other states the grand children of the Confederacy, attired in the Confederate colors and mounted on Shetland ponies, accompanied them the entire line of march. Alabama could not have had more worthy representative than Mrs. Cory, or one more deeply loyal to the Confederate cause.

Wonderful Effects Of Smiths Pineapple
and Butternut Pills.

inactive and loaded with foul waste materials,

Under such conditions the brightness of liv-
ing fades, and gloomy, unwelcome forebodings
settle down. Perfumes and nervousness
with vague fears of impending danger like
phantoms distort the mental vision.
What ails your It's your liver, contested,
torpid, sulky. What's to be dones Take two
of Smiths Pineapple and Butternut Pills after
dinner and again at night. What then you
ask. Just wait till morning. You will see
things in a new light then, the light OF renewed
liver activity. Your brain will be cleared,
your appetite returned and life again attrac..
tive. Keep this treatment up for week, and
your blood will be bright red, purged OF impu-
rites. Your bowels regulated, your stomach

Feed the Hungry Birds.

The severe weather prevailing over n
greater part of the country and the
general heavy snowfall has caused
great mortality among birds. In fact, the
destruction of bird life has been so
great that the national committee OF
the Audubon societies has been led to
make an effort to prevent II and has
issued an appeal TO the public, espec-
tally children. to care for the birds dur
ing the inclement weather. The APP
peal points out that birds suffer very
little In the cold weather provided they
can secure food enough to maintain
their normal temperature. but that
seet storms and heavy falls of snow
cover all natural bird food and that
some help is needed to prevent an ex-
eessive bird mortality. The committee
suggests that bones with scraps OF meat
and pieces of suet be hung In orchards
or door yards, and that broken nuts
and corn, small grain, chaff and waste
from the barn floor be scattered in
places where II can easily be found by
the birds.
