NEW DRAWER DAM.

Home of Local Lodge VIII Be Openend
 Tonight.
 Montgomery Dam of Beavers No. G. will tonight for the first time be at home to its friends in its new home on Madison avenue. And in connection with the Dams ''housewarming" some- thing will be said of the movement by Dr. S III. Saul, Supreme President of the order.
 Local Beavers have been very much gratihed at the favor with which their suggestion has been met, that pr. Saul should be selected the supreme head of the order. He has been an active and enthusiastic worker in the order since its inception and stands high in the esteem of his fellow members. 70 his energy and sleepless interest in it's welfare is due no little measure of the rapid growth of the Montgomery Dam. The Supreme Convention will be held in Birmingham early in February, at which a Supreme President will be elected. Frank s. Conway of Mobile is at present head of the order
 But the social gathering tonight is held to celebrate the copsummation of a cherished dream of the Mont gomery Dam, the dream of having its own hall, as a home like club room for
 
 on Madison avenue between Court and Perry streets. It is handsomely fitted up and equipped with reading rooms, a club room and baths. The formal opening of the hall to- night will be marked by a social meet ing at which the Beavers and their friends will exchange felicitations on the opening of the new home of the Beavers.
 pr. S. H. Saul, President of the local Dam, will preside. Short ad- dresses will be made by a number of prominent Montgomerlans. The list of known speakers include Dr. Saul Gaston Gunter, Horace Hood and D. A. Castleberry.
 It is expected that every member of the Dam will be in attendance. The local Dam now has a membership of 800. Deputy Supreme Organizer E. W. Tripp makes his headquarters in Mont gomery. and he has labored zealously for the upbuildipg of the local Dam.

Is Disease a Crime !?

Not very long sgo, popular magazine published an editorial article in which the writer asserted, in substRpce, that all disease should be regaTded es criminal. and suffering of mankind is due to the violation of certain of Natures laws. But to say that all sickness should be regarded as criminal, must appeal to every reasonable individual as radically wrong.
 It would be harsh, unsympathetic, cruel, yes criminal, to condemn the poor, weak, ovOr-worked housewife who sinks under the heaYy load of household cares and burdens, and suffers from weak nesses, various displacements of pelvic. organs and other Arrangements peculiar to her sex.
 FreQuent bearing of children, with its ex- with the care, worry and labor of rearing large family, is often the cause of weak nease6 derAngements and debility which are aggravated by the many household cares, and the hard. and never-ending work which the mother is called upon to perform. Dr. Pierce, the maker of that woFld-famed rem edy for womans peculiar weaknesses and ills-Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription-says that one of the greatest obstacles to the cure of this class of maladies is the fact that the poor, over-worlCed housewife can not get the ne6ded rest from her many household cares and labor to enable her to secure from the use of his SPrescrfption its full benefits. It is Q matter of frSduent experience. he says. in hlB extensive practice in these cases, to meet with those in which his treatment fails by reason of the patients inability to abstain from hard work long enough to be cured With those suffering from prolapsus, ante verAion and retroVersion of the uterus or other displacement of the womanly organs. it is very necessary that, in addition to talk ing his TFeyoRite Prescription" they abstain from being very much. or for long periods, on their feet All heavy lifting or straintnR of any kind should also be avoided. As much outdoor cir as possible. with moderate, light exercise is also very important Let the patient observe these rules and the Flavor ite Prescription will do the rest.
 Dr. Pierce's Medical Adviser is sent free on receipt of stamps to pay expense of mailing 0IslM Send to Dr. R. v. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y., 21 one-cent stamps for pa- per-covered, or s1 stamps for cloth-bonnd.
