And What the Papers Say of Colonel
 Wiley.
 (Communicated.)
 Colonel Wiley deserves the consider ation of the people of Crenshaw Coun- ty for the faithful manner that he has served them in Congress. As the 18th of March has been set as the day to show our appreciation. The Critic hopes that the people will do so in a manner that can not be mistaken. Don't let some cheap skate come around and fool you into voting against the ablest man on the Alabama delegation.-Luverne Critic

It Is wide step between the tiny innocent baby and the hardened wretch, but who knows whether, after all, such a mark on childish arm might not restrain the older man from a wicked act, if not restoring him to lost ldentity?--An exchange

WIFE CROSS AND NERVOUS?
Not Really Sick, But Out of Sorts; the
OId-Time Energy and Exuberant
Spirits Are Lacking.

Something is needed to restore ami
nation, the physical and mental zest
and lust of life, the JOY of mere living
that characterized the days before the
system had been overtaxed by work,
care, worry or excess.
The feeling popularity termed "blue
devil" is common to those who find
their physical and mental powers
tagging and experience a general
letting down" in energy and ability.
Strong, steady nerves and clear, dis
corning brains are essential to good
health, accomplishing any enjoyment.
Without them pleasures pail and
work becomes a drudge and a drag
If there be gastric enfeebleness or
atomic dyspepsia, poor appetite and
lack of power to abstract the good out
of food swallowed a "letting down"
in mental and boldly vigor is almost
inevitable.
With inadequate supply of nourish-
the human body becomes impaired; the
blood, muscles and nerves are all i'm
poverished, aemia, headache, Sleep
lessness. weakness and nervousness
are. so to speak. all streams from the
same source. Whether the condition
is so prOnOuced as to amount to neu-
rasthema. or is less marked, and thus
constitutes one of the most common
cases of physical decline known as
general debility. the essential cause is
the same, the varying symptoms from
mere 'blue devils" to general break
down, ataXia, paraSiS, dementia,
paralysis are simply cries of nature
for proper material to restore nerve
tissue and increase vital force.
Experience proves that the needs of
nature in these cases are abundantly
and completely supplied by Dilling-
hams Plant Juice; it first promotes
the secretion of gastric juice in ade-
quate quality and quantity to complete
normal digestion. 1t gives vigOr and
activity to the absorbents and thus
assures assimilation of the digested
food giving the starving brain-cells
and nerve tissues exactly what thew
need, i. e.: nOurishment, increase in
appetite with the ability to properly
digest and assimilate food, insures a
gradual, steady reconstruction of
tissue and augmentation of nervous
force.
For an unnerved, rundown cOndi-
ton, for every form of physical de-
cline, there is no medicine equal to
Dillingham; Plant Juice. 1t is the
most rational remedy in such cases
because it exactly duplicates natures
methods of repairing waste Of brain
and nerve tissue and exhaustion of
their vitality. Dillingham; Plant
Juice can be obtained at Bell Bros.

STORIES OF HENDERSON
Characteristic Glimpses of For

War Veterans First Composition and
What Came of It-HOw He Prevent
ed "A General Riot on the Floor of
the House of Representntives-De-
votion to His MOther-WrOte to Her

The late Colonel David Bremner Hen
dersOn, the former speaker of the house

ington Post man: II make it rule Of
my life to get some good out of every
thing, if possible. | owe this trait in
my makeup to my first composition,
for was not born SO.
II went to school to my brother. He
was a splendid man, and with child's
intuitive insight into character l recog-
nized that fact and adored him as a
sort of demigod in consequence. So
when he assigned me the subject for
my first composition / determined to
cover myself all over with glory by
making it the feature of the day. l
did, but not exactly in the way l had
planned it.
My subject was The Mouse and
riddled the character of that maraud-
Ing little rodent pretty thoroughly. l
described him, front view and gable
end. l complained of his propensity
for appropriating to his own use the
property of others, of his rather apt
habit Of biting when his right of way
is infringed upon, of his liability to
run up fellows trousers legs and to
drown himself in preserves.
"My composition was very funny. l
thought it the best one of the lot, and I
believed the other boys did, too, they
laughed so immOderately. l stole a
glance at my brother, and his face
was as black as a thundercloud Pres
emily he arose for the duty of CRITICS
ing our literary productions. He had
kind word of praise for all until he
came to mine, which, having been read
last, was the last to be reviewed.
"'This composition he began, is
the least meritOriOuS of the number

subject of his sketch, and yet it r@
CURED the wisdom and care of the In
finite to create it. The historian who
can see nothing but bad in any subject
whatever does not deserve a good
word from others and is not a safe in
structor of his kind. If you were to
write the story Of an assassin you
could at least tell of the virtues that
had to be assassinated to bring a man
to the point where he could do such a
deed
"He went on quite lengthily in the
same strain. 1 was crushed, and 1t
was only after many years had passed
and my reasoning powers had matured
that dim suspicion began to dawn
upon my mind that my worthy brother
was only the pot calling the kettle
black after all, inasmuch as he had
not a single good thing to say of me
even if l didn't deserve it, for was
hardly as bad as an assassin, at any
rate. This reflection, however, has new
err hindered his intended lesson from
taking root, and to this day try to
practice it."

Choice Between Fol

Choice Between Fortune and Church
Miss Martha Lewis of Pittsburg,
Pa, is confronted with the unpleasant
alternative of refusing fortune or
losing her church membership. She is
an ardent church worker and has been
a consistent member. Not long ago
she received an inheritance of $50. 600.
II transpires, however, that part of
the fund is in brewery bonds and the
rest of it was accumulated in race
track speculations. The church gov
erning board regard both sources of
wealth as extremely reprehensible, and
have therefore notified the young wo-
man that she must get rid of her faint
ed money or get out of the church.

Do you wear
leather shoes +?

SELF shoes, all of them, are made of leather;
this doesn't mean part paper or cardboard;
it means leather, good LEATHER
There's one sure way to tell by the looks,
if shoe is all good leather. Look on the
sole; if you find the name SELF you needn't
look for cardboard in the soles or counters;
it isn't there.
Ofcourse you can tell by wearing them,
or by cutting into them; but finding SELF
on the sole is much quicker and doesn't cost
anything. 1t saves you money.
SELF Royal Blue and Perfecto shoes are
best leather, best workmanship, foot comfort,
durability, economy. We sell them.

DAWSON GEORGIA.
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1906-03-28

In the stormy days of the house of
representatives, just before the adop-
ton of the resolutions precipitating the
war with Spain, Colonel Henderson
prevented a general riot on the floor.
Partisan feeling was running very
high. and Representatives Brumm OF
PENNSYLVANIA and Bartlett of Georgia
became involved in dispute, and the
lie was exchanged.
Members began throwing copies OF
the Congressional Record at one anoth-
er's heads and to strike out right and
left with their fists, and one excited
southerner drew a knife. There was
great rush of members into the space
directly in front on the speakers
stand. which for the time being seem
ed transformed into fighting pit.
Suddenly Henderson came hopping
down the aisle on his crutch, and, lean
ing himself against the desk, he waved
his crutch in the air and his voice rang
out in a clarion call for order For the
time he seemed to override even the
power Of Speaker Reed.
members of the house of representa-
tives." he shouted, you forget where
you are! Back to your seats!"
The command was effective. Mem
bers halted and dropped into conven-
lent seats, and in few minutes Hen
derson's crutch had completely restor-
ed order where the gavel Of Speaker
Reed had apparently failed.
