RAISE THE EMBARGO.
Daughters of the Revolution Will Take Newspapers Into Their Confidence.

Washington, November 9.-At the meeting today of the national board of directors of the Daughters of the American Revolution it was reported that nearly $15,000 had been raised during the past month towards the fund for the construction of the me- morial continental hall now building here.
 At the last meeting of the Daughters in April the statement was made that $275, 900 was needed to complete the hall and of this between $50.000 and $60,000 has been promised or contrib. uted up to this time. The board today adopted resolutions presented by Miss Desha of Kentucky lifting the embargo of giving out news of the society, an inhibition which resulted from the squabble in the last annual convention, when unpleasant features of the meet ing gained publicity through the news papers. It was shown that the society had suffered from the operation of the em bargo

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also Few Facts on the Same Sub.
 feet

|
 We hear much nowadays about health foods and hygienic living, about veg | tarianism, and many other fads along the same line
 Restaurants may be found in the larger cities where no meat, pastry or coffee IS served and the food crank is in his glory. and arguments and theories galore advanced to prove that meat was never intended for human stomaehs, and almost make us believe that our sturdy anees- tors, who lived four-score years in robust health on roast beef. pork and mutton must have been grossly ignorant of the laws of health
 Our forefathers had other things to do than formulate theories about the food they ate. A warm welcome was extended to any kind, from bacon to acorns
 healthy appetite and common sense are excellent guides to follow in matters of diet and a mixed diet of grains, fruits and meats is undoubtedly the best.
 AS compared with grains and vegetables, meat furnishes the most nutriment in a highly concentrated form and is digested and assimilated more quickly than veg etables or grains.
 pr. Julius Remmson, on this subject, says; "Nevous persons, people run down in health and of low vitality should eat meat and plenty of it. If the digestion IS too feeble al first it may be easily cor rected by the regular use of Stuarts Dys- pepsia Tablets after each meal. Two of these excellent tablets taken after din- ner will digest several thousand grains of meat. eggs or other animal food in three hours and no matter how weak the stomach may be, no trouble will be ex- perienced if a regular practice Is made Of using Stewards Dyspepsia Tablets, be- cause they supply the pepsin and diastase necessary to perfect digestion. and every form of indigestion will be overcome by their use
 That large class of people who come un- der the head of nervous dyspepsia should eat plenty of meat and insure it's proper digestion by the daily use of safe, harm less digestive medicine like Stewarts s Dyspepsia Tablets, composed of the nat ural digestive principles. pepsn, diastase, fruit acids and salts which actually per form the work of digestion. Cheap cathar- tic medicines. mesquerading under the name of dyspepsia cures, are useless for indigestion, as they have absolutely no effect upon tho actual digestion of food.
 Dyspepsia in all it's many forms is sim ply a failure of the stomach to digest food, and the sensible way to solve the riddle and cure the dyspepsia is to make daily use at meal time of preparation
 like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which is endorsed by the medical profession and known to contain active digestive prin- ciples.

them in coach, got in another coach myself and followed. It seems to me that we drove all over Chicago that evening. The band played popular airs the whole time. I watched the popu- lace from the windows of my coach, which immediately followed the coach containing the musicians, and do you know I never saw pedestrian turn his head to find the cause of the rumpus It was simply amazing, and came to the conclusion that Chicagoans have no taste for the fine arts. After a couple of hours of this I returned to my hotel in disgust, my heart full of pity for the Windy City and its peo- pie.
 My little experiment cost mo con- siderably over $200. but I think the money was well spent. I have since retired from the sport of attempting to attract popular attention by fool meth ods, and the field is open to the next man."

IN THE BIRMINGHAM
 REAL ESTATE MARKET

Local real estate circles yesterday were in their usual progressive condition. The amount of activity Is practically un- changed, but prices seem to be inclined to move upward.
 When asked for his opinion of the con dition of the local market yesterday a citizen who is much interested in the real estate of this district replied that there was absolutely no doubt that the value of all grades of property in Birmingham and it's suburbs was now on very rapid rise to higher prices. He added that ne had especially noticed the advance Tn the activity of the Ensley real estate mar ket; that the market seems to have sud- denly awakened and is now inclined to great things.
 As to the condition of the building cir cles of this city the above mentioned citizen replied that while he was not very we'll informed on the condition or the local building circles, yet in his opinion, which was formed from observation, the building trade was very active.
 Papers for the following real estate transfers involving amounts equal 10 or exceeding slOo were recorded in the pro- bate clerks office yesteday: John w. O'Neill to Clarence Bucking- ham. lot 6, of block 94. Birmingham; con sideration, s10,000.

lrving's Last Autograph.
,e London Daily News.

From the London Daily News.
 Pathetic incidents in connection with Sir Henry Irving's last hours continue to be revealed. A Bradford boy who had shown considerable ability as an artist did a portrait for the great actor and asked him for his autograph.
 The breakdown of Sir Henrys health at Wolverhampton prevented his signing the picture, but on Friday night-the last night of Sir Henry,s life-the boy was handed the portrait, with bold, unwav- ering autograph-the last which the actor ever wrote.
