A Ridiculous Fad.

OF all the fads which an ultra-smart
section Of Londoners has imported from
America, perhaps the latest is the most
ridiculous. II takes the form of having
the photographs printed on the finger
nails
The distinction of introducing it to
London belongs to the daughter Of a
wealthy railroad magnate.
Last summer this young woman made
the acquaintance OF a man well known
in London sporting circles and mem
Der OF one Of the service clubs. who
visited New York for the purpose of
witnessing the race for the Americas
Cup. At the end of a few weeks the
TO justify the lady in exhibiting to her
relatives a neat little photograph of the
Englishman printed upon the nail OF
her third or engagement finger.
The marriage took place on New
I1s== Day: but in the meantime an
event. small in itself. but regarded as
omtnously significant. had occurred.
The young woman had been compelled
tc decapitate her flance. AS long as
appearances permitted she refrained
from submitting that particular nail to
the scissors, but when finally II began
70 assume the graceful curve regarded
mark of good breeding, the unhappy
bride-elect consented to have II re-
ouceu- IN the operation the pictured
bridegroom lost his head.
A fortnight ago the pair returned
from Egypt to take up their residence
IN London. and the bride hastened to a
photographer studio near Sloane
Street
First tiny film negative Of the hus-
band was taken and developed in the
usual way. Meanwhile the nail had
been coated with a sensitized solution
Then over the nail the flexible film was
imposed and secured by tiny clips at
each side of the finger, and then BY ex-
posture to light the photograph was Sc
cured. II was pronounced a great sue
cess. Upon the delicate pink of the
carefully prepared nail the features
stood out bold and clear.
Since then a Well-knoWn actress has
had the photographs of two friends
taken upon finger nail on each hand.

d d OBSERVATIONS Of peqgy D. D.

Have you ever thought what an easy
thing it is TO live beyond your income?
Well. il Is one Of the easiest things
in the world, and married women. as
well as bachelor girls. do it every day.
The married woman IS otter led into
little eXtTavagances by adopting the
charge" system at the dry goods stores
or at the grocers. for suppoe few
friends come. Ii Is so nice TO be able
to have Just the right things To- cat
which may be ordered by telephone,
but, alas, the reckoning comes ut the
end of the month.
Then again. visiting the dry gods
shops is another unhaItny means Of
stealing away ones wits. Suppose a
woman has q weakness for beautiful
furnishings draperiss or pictures; she
goes to town TO buy some simple nee
essaries. sees a piece OF Oriental stuff
marked away down simply crying To
her TO buy It; II Is such al bargain, II
would be a pity to let It go, so she buys
IL or charges IL, and no doubt she coould
have done without il just as well as
not. But she doesn't find kris out until
later.
It is so easy to have f1s a homely
saying puts IT'D "a wine appetite and
beer income" bat. alas. trouble will
come some time unless the appetite is
made 20 conform 20 the circumstances.
Perhaps the best thing TO co when
one becomes conscious that she is liv-
ing beyond her means is 70 stop and
look the situation calmly in the face.
A young couple who had an income of
$50 2 week found 20 their horror they
had been living for several months at
the rate of $25 week. or course. all
their bills had been charged, and as
they did not have sufficient money to
pay off all the bills each month. they
paid what they could and left a balance
on each
One fine day. however. they got their
heads together and talked the matter
over. They reck oned Up what they had
spent the week before and found both
Of them had bought unnecessary things

Some folks are continually having

INHALAT1oNs AND COUGHS.

Limitations form an excellent mode OF
treating ordinary coughs and colds. and
particularly colds of a kind which are
Cl6ted to bronchitis. The great point
in inhaling Is to see that no exposure
or chill is incurred afterward. Hence
tho proper time for inhaling is AT night
or at least when the patient is confined
10 the house. a useful inhalation may
be made as follows: Thymol, one
scruple; rectified spirit three dachms: .
light carbonate of magnesia. ten grains,
and water TO make up three ounces A

added to a pint OF water Of the heat OF

Gossip Of men
 and nldtterS
Rayages of Boll Worm.

Mir. 6. J. Ham, a progressive planter of Montgomery County, whose farm IS on the Norman Bridge Road four and 0 half miles from the city. was Tn town yesterday and brought to The Advertiser building several dozen cot ton bolls that had been almost entirely destroyed by boil worms.
 Mir. Ham Is of the opinion that the boil worm is as dangerous to the cot ton plant as the boil weevil. He said the worms had damaged his crop nearly 50 per cent, the plant having been attacked at all stages of It's growth.
 Montgomery men interested in the cotton business examined the bolls and expressed great surprise at the ravages of the insects.
 It is said that the best way to pro- tect cotton plants from the boil worm is to plant corn with the cotton. the worm feeding on corn more quickly than on cotton.

Anti-cocaine Campaisn.

The horrors of cocaine with It's ray. ages in Birmingham. which will prob ably lead to a new and more rigid or- dinance regulating its sale than new exists in the city code. come more fre- quently under the observation of the police department than any other part of the consta bulary. Chief of Police wier would like to get at the root of the cocaine habit with It's great prev others to have a stricter law passed by the Board of Mayor and Aldermen de- signed to cut down the sale of the de- lcterious drug.
 The most pitiful sights of my expe- rience since I have been on the Bir- minsham police force arc the cocaine fiends," spoke Chief Wier this morn- ing. They are one class of wretches in the criminal world that have lit- tie reluctance about arresting for vio- lating the ordinances of the city. l could not say what per cent of tho criminals whose names are on the po- lice docket are victims of the habit. but know 1t is large enough to create alarm.
 T have had several patrolmen to re- port to me instances of negroes tramp ing the streets after midnight hunting for some means of getting hold of tho drug. Of course. the habit Is more common among tho negroes than with the whites, but have experienced cases of both. I distinctly rccollect one young white man whose life is q particularly sad one. He was arrested on a charge of attempting to steal typewriter from one of the leading es- tablishments of the city. The man had plenty of real estate which he could have converted into money enough to buy cocaine for a decade if he had boon his own guardian. As 1t was his monthly allowance was limited on ac- count of his cocaine habit. which had made him a perfect imbecile.
 This young man walked into a type writer shop one day-I won't mention any names-and. happening to know one of the workmen, stopped and talked nervously for a time. Then with d surprising boldness while hts acauaint- ance was busied in another room. the wretch picked up a stoo writing ma- chine and hurried out on the street with the heavy thing on his shoulders He was caught by one of the officers before he could reach one of the most prominent drug stores in the city. We supposed that he was going to try to trade the typewriter to the druggist for kit of cocaine. We did not prose- cute the man because he was of an IT, responsible mind
 T have arrested scores of negroes walking around after midnight with their eyes on the drug stores as If they wished to break into the stores. We charged them with vagrancy and on trial 1t developed that they were driven mad by the cocaine habit. It seems a pity to convict such physical and moral wrecks. I think cocaine and the other pernicious drugs incite to more crime than any other artificial means"

Mir. Poole to Take q Rest.

Hon. R. K. Poole. Commiss1oner or Agriculture of Alabama, will go to his home in Marengo County today to re- main several days. He said yesterday that his health was in such a condition that he needed much rest.
 It will be remembered that prior to his death pr. Poole. brother of the Commissioner. was in desperate health at Tucker Springs. Tenn, and that he required constant attention. Commis- sioner Poole was with him several weeks and il was a strain on his con stitution.
 Commissioner Poole yesterday ex- pressed the opinion that the cotton crop would not show as great a yield this year as 1t did last year.

Federal Court Sessions.

"The United States Court will hardly hold a session in Montgomery before January 1st." said a government of fical yesterday. The improvements on the federal building have made 1t necessary to tear out the old court room. and Judge Jones has no room in which to hold his court.
 T understand the contract for build ing the annex to the structure provides that 1t is to be completed on January 1st and I suppose there will be a ses- sion of the court in the new room about the first week of January.
