The Man in the Cab.

Safe and snug in the seeping-car
Are father and mother and sleeping child
The night outside shows star,
For the storm is thick and the wind is Wild
The frenzied train in its all-night race
Holds many soul in its fragile walls,
While up in his cab, with smoke-stained face,
Is the man in the greasy overalls.
Through the fre.box door the heat CLOVIS white,
The whistle speaks with shrek that shocks,
The pistons dance and the drive-wheels smite
The trem bling rails till the whole earth rocks.
But never searching eye could trace
Though the night is black and the speed appalls-
A line of fear in the smoke-stained face
Of the man in the greasy oyeralls.
No hating, wavering coward he,
AS he lashes his engine round the curve
But peace-encompassed Grant or Lee,
With heart of oak and an iron nerve,
And so ask that you make place
In the Temple of Heroes sacred halls
Where may hang the smoke-staned face
Of the man in the greasy overalls.

 'Vinol will make children strong. robust and rosy or we return your money"
 Is there a mother in Montgomery who will ignore such a generous offer as this? You risk not one cent, We pay for all the Vinol your child takes if 1t does no good.
 There are plenty of children all around us who are thin, puny, ailing and tired all the time. Don't want to do this, and don't want to do that. Do not blame the children: they have no strength, no blood. no vitality; rapid growth takes all their strength.
 Vinol is just what your child needs. It is a delicous cod liver oil prepara- ton. and children love it. It creates strength, makes rich. red blood and vitality as nothing else can, and after that will build your child up like Vinol.
 The following letter is only one of hundreds which we have received from mothers telling what Vinol has done for their children.
 Mrs l.. M. Oswalt, of Mansfield, O.. writes: My little daughter became so poorly that l was obliged to take her from school. She was thin, no appe- tlte. tired all the time and weak We have tried several medicines without benefit Since taking Vinol, however. she Is as well as ever; she has gained in flesh has rosy cheeks and good ap- petite and is going to school every day"
 We want to say to every mother fin Montgomery that Vinol will build your little ones up into strong, robust, healthy children. We have never sold anything 10 equal 1t in our store for this purpose. and we will return your money If 1t falls. E. c. Fowler. Drug gaN

Simmons made his escape and Sheriff Raley of fered a reward of fifty dollars for his apprehension. Christmas Charley Castleberry a negro, came to Brewto from Hattiesburg, Mss, to spend the holidays, he having formerly lived here. He told Mir. Raley that Simmons was somewhere in that section. and was told to keep a lookout for him. Last week Castleberry informed Mir Raley that he had seen Simmons in Hatties- burg. Friday last Sheriff Raley and Deputy w K. Mayo left for the Missis- sippi town where they secured the aid of Castleberry and after some search located Simmons at sawmiu about two miles from HattIesburg. Simmons was taken unaware, and offered no re- sistance. The reward offered by the sheriff was paid to Castleberry.

Thompson had disap- peared. and it was said that he had left the United States. The officers were surprised when they saw him, but promptly placed him under arrest.
