RECEIVER MAY YET
APPEAL THE CASE
Suits Are Between Bessemer
Defunct Banks
LARGE SUMS ARE INVOLVED
Decision of Judge Sem Against 5es-
semer Savings Bank May Be Car

Will Postpone dividend.
LARGE SUMS ARE INVOLVED

Bessemer, January 22-(Special)- is
probable that the case of the receiver of
the Bessemer Savings bank VS.. the re-
ceiver of the Bank of Commerce will be
appealed to the supreme court Last
Saturday Judge Sem of the Birmingham
city court rendered a decision disallowing
the claims of the receiver of the savings
bank against the Bank of Commerce. 1t
is known that the attorneys of the re-
ceiver of the savings bank are consid-
ering carrying the case to the higher
court.
The suit was instituted against the
Bank of Commerce for $4,000, which it
is claimed was turned over to the bank
shortly before the defunct savings bank
went to the wall. This case 1t is under
stood was only a forerunner to proceed
ings that the receiver is considering be-
ginning for the recovery OF $4,000 or $685.
900 worth of real estate which was turned
over to the Bank of Commerce prior to
the suspension of both the Bank Of Com
merce and the savings bank.
1t is known that there is a movement
on foot looking to a settlement between
the receivers of the two banks. If this
is effected the case, 1t is understood, will
not be appealed to the supreme court.
In case the decision of the lower court
stands the depositors of the Bank of
Commerce will be paid a dividend which
will amount to about three-fourths of
the sum due the depositors.

Why do work and worry and excess
and strain and overindulgence break down
constitutions and make men and women
worn out and run down and restless and
sleepless and discouraged and morose?
Because they weaken the tiny, tender
nerves on which life itself depends.
Not the nerves you ordinarily think
about-not the nerves that govern your
movements and your thoughts.
But the automatic nerves that, unguided
and unknown, night and day, keep your
heart in motion-control the digestive ap-
paratus-regulate your liver-operate your
kidneys.
These are the nerves that worry wears
out and work breaks down.
1t does no good to treat the ailing organ
the irregular heart-the disordered liver
the rebellious stomach-the deranged
kidneys. They are not to blame. But go
back to the nerves that control them,
There you will find the seat of the trouble.
1t does no good to take stimulants and
narcotics. for theirs, at best, is but a
temporary effect which merely postpones
the day of reckoning.
There is nothing new about this-noth-
ing any physician would dispute But 1t
remained for DR.. Shoop to apply this
knowledge-to put it to practical use. DR..
SnOOpS restorative is the result of a
quarter century of endeavor along this
very line. 1t does not dose the organ or
deaden the pain-but 1t does go at once
to the nerve-the inside nerve-the power
nerve-and builds it up, and strengthens
1t and makes it well. That is the end of
all vital troubles. That is the end of
sleepless nights and restless days. That
is the end Of nervousness" the end of
brain flag and fatigue.
II you are worn out run down and have
never tried my remedy, merely write and
ask. I will send you an order on your
druggist which he will accept as gladly
as he would accept dollar. He will hand
you from his shelves a standard sized
bottle of my prescription, and he will
send the bill to me. This offer is made
only to strangers to my remedy. Those
who have once used the Restorative do
not need this evidence. There are no con-
ditions-no requirements 1t IS open and
frank and fair. 1t is the supreme test of
my limitless belief. All that I ask YOU
to do is to write-write today.

nedei Tenement Houses to bs Erected
 in Three Cities.

New York. Jan 24.-Plans announced three weeks ago by Henry Phipps for the use of $1.0OO,G00 to erect model tenement houses in New York will, it is stated, be extended into triangular enterprise by including the cities of Philadelphia and Allegheny. Exactly how much money will bc devoted to the Pennsylvania end of the project has not yet been settled, the negotiations being still in preliminary stage.
 Mr Phipps. who makes his home in New York, formerly lived in both All legheny and Philadelphia. the former being his birthplace.
 Plans for the New York buildings already have been submitted to q com- mittee of we'll known citizens, hcadec. by Robert w. DeForrcst. former tene- ment house commissioner Originally Mir Phipps was also considering the extension of the project to Allegheny and Philadelphia. but he made it un- derstood that before taking such step he would wait until the experiment had been throughly tried here.
 Since then, however, he has changed his mind and the tenement houses will bc built in the two Pennsylvania cities whether those erected here prove sue 'cssful or not, the donor having come tG the conclusion that several years time would be lost ill demonstrating the practicability of his scheme.

 The operation was for mastoid abscess behind the ear and very close to the brain.
 As is generally known. the inven- tor has been deaf for many years. and tha affiiction has been growing worse. He has been suffering considerably for about q week. and the matter of a'n operation was broached several days ago. but there was strong hope that it might he avoided rt devel- opal. however. that. while Mir Edison was better in many particulars. the growth was not yielding fo treatment and the conclusion was reaciled that the operation would have to be per formed at once.
