A DcAIunInR Dnctnr.

The Sydney Bulletin tells of mo-
toring doctor who ran into and cap
sized n pedestrian. He looked behind
him and, seeing the man still prone
made circuit and ran back, intending
to stop beside and help him. But the
motor shot yard or two beyond the
mark and hit the man again just as he
was getting up. The doctor turned his
car once more and was cautiously
stealing near to the PROSTATE sufferer
when an excited spectator rushed from
the sidewalk and, shaking the victim
exclaimed: Look out! He's coming
at you again" Whereupon the man
scrambled up and started to run.

The Stuart Kings.

The family name OF the Stunrts was
originally, as Mr.. Bayley observes
Fitzalan. The original Walter Fltz
alan, brother of the ancestor of the
dukes Of Norfolk, was lord high stew
ard Of Scotland, and from this cir
cumstance his branch Of the family
appears to have adopted tho name of
Stewart When the change began is
not certain, but It was probably not
later than the time Of Alexander, the
great-grandson Of Walter Fitzalan, for
both his sons-Jnmes, the grandfather
Of Robert III. and all the Scottish Stew
art kings, ana John. the ancestor OF
Lord Darnley-appenr to have borne

How to Keep BIouses From slipping
When making blouses, to keep them
from slipping 1t IL II good plan instead
of sewing the hooks and eyes on the

length required and sew hooks OH II
strongly. Take another length of tape
to cover sewing on hooks and make
neat-and sew on top of bottom part
Of hooks where they have been sewed.
Then tack this hook tape on front or

ATTACKING DEMOCRATIC RULE.

The candidacy of Mir. Conner for Gov ernor seems to be grounded on the failure of past Democratic office hold CTS in this State to conduct themselves free from the taint of railroad con- trol. He has repeatedly undertaken to produce the impression, many times indeed saying as much, that the exec utive office and the Legislature in the past were under the control of the railroads.
 His candidacy is a daily assault on the party which has controlled affairs in this State for thirty years. We sug- gest to any inquiring citizen that he recall the tenor of MT. Corners speech es as they have appeared in the public prints; if indeed the inquiring citizen has not had the great pleasure of lis tening to the screaming attacks. There seems to be no way for MT Conner to be entirely great until he has de- stroyed the reputation of almost every officer holding a position fin Alabama for d decade and a half.
 Are we mistaken in supposing that there Is quiet reaction against him on this ground and throughout the State? We make bold to state that MT. Conner Is not altogether sincere No sort of railroad rates would right now satisfy him. or would have satis-

The Bullock County Breeze, pub lished at Union Springs. says:
 MT. Conner charges The Advertiser on him in one issue. Why did he not specify few of the vilest of the lot and refute them.
 The editor of The, Breeze heard Mir. Comer's speech and he is in line with others who have heard him and agree as to his being abusive of almost every thing that has been going on in Alabama for the past forty years. The Breeze makes very pertinent suggestion in the last sentence above quoted. The truth of the matter is that The Ad- vertiser was very considerate of MT. Conner in last years campaign and it was of last year that fe was speak ing. It rarely mentioned his name and always, when it did, in most respect full terms. The bulk of the matter that appeared in The Advertiser last year concerning him and his alleged methods bore distinctive marks to show that it was advertising pure and simple. It was furnished by reputa- ble people. Beyond giving it space, at regular business rates. this paper had nothing to do with it and it's columns, were as open to him, under similar conditions. as to his opponents. Mo- body knows this better than he does. That he is rantarkerously mad, this early in the game. shows that he does not feel so safe as he and his friends pretend. The people are not so car ried away with his extreme views, as he imagines. and this will be devel- oped more and moro as the campaign goes along. They will not be willing to trust the States fortunes to a man who thinks he can be judge. court and jury and who denounced his oppon- ent's declaration of being bound by the constitution and the laws and his oath of office

 Dr. Cunningham favors the Legisla- turs conferring more power on the the Constitution of Alabama. while Mir. Conner contends that the Railroad Com mission has no power and that the Leg islature cannot give 1t any; therefore the rate issue must be settled and the rates fixed by the Legislature itself for the reason that we believe that the Constitution gives the Legislature au- thority to confer more power on the Railroad Commission, and for the fur ther reason that we believe three com potent men on the Commission can come nearer doing the thing right than the Legislature as a whole can: where there will necessarily be such d. versity of opinions, and so many would have a voice in the matter who know nothing about the subject of freight rates or the conditions to be consid- cred in fixing them.

BEER AND DuMpLINGs.

We are never surprised when a Professor of something gives out what he considers an inspired opinion. "a disordered stomach is not conducive to good thoughts" If he had stopped there we should feel no inclination to take issue with him. When a mans stomach is disordered he is likely to have bad thoughts. and very often gets of some bad words.
 But this Professor--or perhaps he Is q minister-tells us that "of two evils a stomach filled with beer and one full of apple dumplings, I believe that beer is better for man than the dys- pepsia-breeding dumplings." Right there is where we kick We are not caring so much about the mans opin- ion of beer. It is possible that he can lug about with him a stomach full of the amber fluid and still attend to business. There is a vast difference in the carrying capacity of human stom- achs. One would consider single bottle of beer 8 load while another could bear away a dozen bottles inside him and not feel himself overloaded. Also. there is big difference in the brands of beer and it sometimes hap pens that a man fills up on a bad brand and suffers from the experi- eIice.
 But however disposed we may be to look with leniency on the mans views about beer we are not going to remain quiet when he islanders apple dumplings. We don't know how they build them in Ohio, or what kind of materials they use, and 1t may be that an Ohio dumpling is worse than an overload of bad beer. However. that may be, we know that the apple- dumpling properly constructed of good material, built and baked or boiled by good cook. just naturally lays over almost anything that comes from the culinary department of a we'll regu- lated home. They can be so made that they will almost drive the eater to sui eide or they can be put together and served in Such way that the only comment of the eater will be. Bring us Another" If this speakers only experience with apple-dumplings has been such as to make him see things we pity him, unless he is one of the kind who never quits while there is a vacancy inside him. In that case his disordered stomach is not to be wondered at.
