 How yellow fever may originate need not be discussed by a layman, as learn ed physicians do not, believe, general Hy agree on this subject If more ac- curate knowledge along this line were procurable, prevention and remedy would be simplified. What l shall un- dertake, at present, Is more in the way of suggestion and illustration than any thing else Experts in the medical art. more or less an experimental one. may draw their own conclusions or pay no attention to the matter herein con- veyed.
 Colonel W. w. wolsey. now a resident Of Aiken County, s. C., and one or tns most variously gifted of men. once toio me some interesting things drawn rom his own personal experience. lie Was' at one time, in South America, where the yellow fever prevailed, and declares tha the walked hurtless from infection by a simple precaution. He LOOK each morning. moderate dose of Epson salts. His theory is that this sup stance prevents the formation or the rind that illustrates gastric operations normally He also asserts that Epson salts taken in the first stages of the disease, rapidly counteract or dlsslpate it. When yellow fever, some years ago. broke out in Brunswick, Ga. wrote of the wo1sey treatment to Rev. Father Henessey, Cathohc priest there. and he stated, afterward, that he had tried it beneficialiy.
 Years ago, when Memphis, as well as New Orleans, was scourged, all k1nos oi doctors. with all manner of specifics, u,ere allowed to practice, under reputa- ble conditions. I have always oenev- ed that the then horrible and contami- mated public water supply Of the city aggravated the disease and made ft ,nuch more fatal than it would other wise have been. At present Memphis has a pure water supply and IS un- commonly healthy. MT. Duny, resi- dent, volunteered his services and they were so conspicuous and unfiagging that when the pestilence ceased. his grateful fellow citizens presented nm with a splendid gold medal, which was all that he cared to accept VIII re

 .oThere came to town one day, long, lank young country doctor, rom neighboring State. and, on pelng pre- sented to the committee of pubic safety. declared that he had positive cure for yellow fever. Of course, we erimly smiled at his assurance, since this statement was common with all or his profession of a certain class. But as he had a diploma and was willing to take all risk, we told him to proceed on his mission. That doctor lost but one case, a desperate one. He allowed his patients to drink all of the water they craved, bad as the liquid m,snt | he. provided they added about half a teasponoful or some such quantity or b,carbonate of soda to the beverage. One day. toward dusk, man affected with the disease in It's initial stage, was brought to me. I could not get him admission to hospital, but in the emergency, made him as comfortable as possible for the night, in an am bulance. In that vehicle was pottie of gin did not, in parting with

WOMAN LOG HAULER.
Young Miss of Autauga County Drives OK Team.


 OK Team.
 Prattville, Aug. 14.-(Special)- There have been women who followed the business of digging graves. farming on large scales. keepers of light houses, harbormaster or mistress. railroad con structors, conductors, miners, deep sea divers, but 1t takes Autauga County to get beyond former records by giving to history a girl 17-years-old that owns a logging team. eight oxen and a dray, with which she carries out contract in this county to furnish a sawmill with logs.
 Of course she has nothing to do with the cutting. but she does all her load ing and unloading. and drives the team as regular as If she were n man. In reading this story 1t must not be imagined that the woman referred to is a sour old maid, but it Is fact she Is only IT as before stated. and does as much as any man could do with the same team. She says when talked to about the matter she does not have to drive her team. but prefers to do so rather than let another have charge of her oxen. Miss Wood. for such Is her name, may be seen almost any day at Elliott's sawmill located near Booth, in the discharge of hcr duties as log hauler.
 The municipal primary is in progress here today. There will be nominated a mayor and five councilmen. Hon. J. C. Burns has no opposition for mayor. and there are only eight candidates be- fore the primary for councilmen. All the old council stands for reelection. Everythin gabout the polling place Is quiet and there can be no reliable fore cast of the result If the old council is nominated there will be two citizens on the council not connected with either the Continental Gin Company or the Prattville Cotton Mills Company; but if any of the old council are beaten all members of the council will be con nected with one of the above named companies.
 Prattvile can boast Of as much build ing as any town of It's size in the State. It has within the corporate limits at this time under construction $45,0O0 court house; S1s.000 jail; s10,0O0 ware house. s6.0OO job on the dam across Autauga Creek. a $1O.0O0 residence The court house. jail and warehouse are on the same block.

 Among this class the symptoms of female diseases are early manifest by weak and aching backs, pain in the lower limbs and lower part of the stomach. In consequence of frequent wetting of the feet, monthly periods become painful and irregular, and fre- quently there are faint and dizzy spells, with loss of appetite, until life is a burden. All of these symptoms point to Arrangement of the female organ ism which can be easily and promptly cured by Lydia B. Pnkham's Vegetal ble Compound.
 Miss Abby E. Barrows. Nelsonville, Athens Co., Ohio, tells what this great medicine did for her. She writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-

 "Your medicine has made me well and strong. l can do most any kind of work without complaint, and my periods arc all right.
 IT am in better health than ever was, and l know it is all due to your remedies. I recommend your advice and medicine to all who suffer"
 It is to such girls that Mrs. Pink ham holds out helping hand and ex- tends cordial invitation to correspond with her. Her long record of success in treating woman's ills makes her let ters of advice of untold value to every ailing working girl, and from her wide experience and skill she quickly points the way to health. Her advice is free, and all letters are held by her in the strictest confidence. Address, Mra. P1nkham, Lynn, Mass.

 were adopted lifting the quarantine provided that the County Board of Health and Jefferson County Medical
 Society. which met tonight, should en- dorse the action.
 pr. J. c. LeGrande. one of the we'll known physicians of the city and oHe of the physicians who brought about the quarantine against Montgomery. gave
 out an interview in which he stated | that he would favor the lifting of the quarantine immediately against Mont | gomery, advices from that city having | been received here that the case of fe- yer which was in the detention camp near the city having recovered and the patient making preparations to leave | there and no further cases having sprung up.
 Other physicians seen during the day expressed themselves in favor of lift ing the quarantine against Montgomery at tonight's meeting. The new order | will take effect tonight, and by tomor- | row everything between Montgomery and Birmingham will be running smoothly again.
 Ine Stdto QudTdutino OHlCeTS dt tHic point report everything going along in 1 fine shape. The county quarantine of- | ficer today had some little difficulty in requiring Mrs McDermott, who came here from Montgomery, to leave the | city again. It seems that Mrs. McDer- | mott passed through Birmingham and | left the train at Blount Springs. The matter was reported to the quarantine officer who sought her and required her | to leave the city.

A report reached the city that a num- Der of tramps and hobos In general just l up from Louisiana were making their way on foot into Alabama. State Quar- antine Officer J. A. Oliver and two men | fro'n the Birmingham division went to | the Mississippi line to watch if any tramps were coming into the State through that avenue.
