 Mrs NJ A. Stewart of I7 Bullock Street says: My sister, Mrs. W. H. Monroe, has used Doan's Kidney Pills which l got for her at E. G. Fowler's drug store, and she values them very highly. In fact, ! have often heard her say that she would not be without supply of DoAn's Kidney Pills in the house. She suffered a great Qeai from heavy gnawing pains in he1 back. which were very severe, especially at night She has to lie in one position in order to find comfort, and when that tired her she was unable to turn over without a great deal of pain. She hardly ever knew a nights rest, but soon after she began using Doan's Kidney Pills the pain gradually began to leave her back and by the time she had finished the box if had entirely disappeared"

Suffering Will Not Help Your Disease, but Will Weaken Your
 Nerves.

Folks who think it is better to bear pain than soothe lt-are wrong.
 Old-fashioned doctors used to say 1t was better. because they had nothing with which to ease pain but dangerous. heart-parf1 zlng drugs.
 But now, that a safe remedy has been found, Dr. Niles Anti-Pain Pills, 1t is wrong to suffer, for nothing can be gained but weakened nerves.
 A safe rule to remember is: When in pain, take an Anti-Pain Pill.
 This will soothe your aulvering nerves.
 Dr. Miles Antl-Pain Pills relieve pain by restoring the natural secretions, in which they differ from opium and sim far narcotic drugs. which relieve pain by checking the action of the glands.
 They are sure and harmless, and are the latest medical treatment forSth Cure of Headache. Neuralgia, Backache. Rheumatism. Dizziness. Toothache. Stomachache, Menstrual (AdonthIy) Pains. Also nerve irritations like Sea- Sickness, Car-Sickness. sleeplessness, Indigestion, etc.
 Pleasant to take, quick in results.
 q have used Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills for sick. nervous headache, and tily recommend their curative proper ties, for they are successful. "--REv. RAY A. WATROS. D. D., Iowa City, Ia.

J. B. Byers, of Cullman, Nominated For Congress, and H. G. Ashley and G. L. Malone Elected
 Delegates to Chicago.

Gadsden, March 5.-(Specfal)--T Re- publican convention of the Seventh dis trict met here to-day in the County Court House and decided to bury all diff ferences, contrary to expectations.

 Mir. Byers is Mayor Of Cuilman and well known throughout the district He is comparatively n young man, being thirty years old and unmarried. He is a con sistent member of the Methodist Church and stauneh Republican. After his nomination he was introduced as the next Congressman.

Mr. Campbell's Mission.

A. o. Campbell. general road mss'er of the Frisco System. has gone to Chicago, where he will attend a meeting of the road men of railroads of the United States. At this meeting Mir. Campbell is going to tell of experiments made with steel rail manufactured at Ensley. A four months test was made with both the open hearth steel rail. as manufac- tured at Ensley. and the Bessemer stell fraIi, manufactured elsewhere. Some of the Ensley product was placed on some very sharp and hard curves In four months the inspection shows that there has been but little wear. The rail In that time on straight track showed up excellently, much to his surprise. Tho Bessemer steel rail, laid at the same time and on sharp and hard curves, showed some wear, though slight. How ever, there was difference in favor of the Enslcy product. It Is possible thnt the talks to be made by Mir. CampbCll will result in some purchases of steel mil heinz made at tho Eusley plant. The Frisco System has not made any heavy purchases of steel rail at the Ems ley plant as yet. but 1t Is reasonable to suppose that the recent tests made prov cd so successful that there will be some- thing doing in that line for the new construction work under way or pro- posed by the big Western concern.

Early Convention Suggested.

Coal operators in the Birmingham dis frict have offered suggestion that the coal miners belonging to the United Mine Workers of America hold their con vention the middle of May instead of In June, ae by waiting until near the first of July, when the contract expires for coal mining. interferes with making orders for deliveries during the last half of the year. All iron manufacturers have to handle business carefully after June until the contract with the miners has been signed. and this had a bad effect.
