Regarding Good Music.

''The question of how best to popular ize good music in America has long been matter of serious consideration with music teachers and band and orchestra leaders" said musician. "All great directors have had their plans and theories but 1t is generally thought that the basis of musical taste Is correct and musicianly teaching and constant hearing of high class music.
 "A leading editorial in a Richmond pa- per concludes as follows:
 {" The more good music the public hear the more the popular ear will be trained and the more they will NSe it. Therefore it would be well for MT. Iardella's band to select one piece of classical music and play it once at every concert until the people learn it. It would be we'll also, to let the public know in advance what the selection will be. Last night the band rendered Poet and Peasant a classical composition full of melody. Why not con- tinue to play Poet and Peasant until the listeners have become as familiar with 1t as they are with Bill Bailey? Then take up William Tell as the piece de re- sistance and play 1t night after night until the people learn it by heart.
 |" If this course be adopted by the time the season closes the people will have become familiar with several classics, and in all such cases familiarity breeds re- spect and admiration. Professor Iardella thus has the opportunity to become a valuable public instructor. and the press of Richmond will be glad to aid him
 While Poet and Peasant and William Tell come under the head of good music they are not usually classed as classic. Every music lover enjoys hearing them now and then, but a constant repetition as the Richmond editor suggests would be dreadfully wearying."

Jasper Mountain Eagle: The indications are that Walker county this year will realize about s20OO0 school money from the dispensaries or in the neighborhood of $2.50 per child.

 Gadsden Evening Journal: Alabama is to have a Home Coming week from De- tober 15 to the 10th and Birmingham will be the scene of the principal festivities. The state fair vii be in progress at that time and the city is making preparations for a programme of entertainment that should bring all the wanderers home. No doubt there are many former Gads- den citizens who will take advantage of the opportunity of visiting the haunts of younger days and special efforts should be made by our people to provide for a days entertainment and see that all visiting Gadsdenites come and visit the home folks.
 Mobile Register: The stories told in Pen sacola by men who say they are fugitives from the camp of the Jackson Lumber company at Loekhart. Ala, are under investigation by the United States author ities in Pensacola. They are given some oredenee by the Pensacola Journal which paper says that fugitives have been ar irving from time to time, all telling of bad treatment received at the camp. The chief complaint is that the men, being foreigners and ignorant of the duties to be performed, are underfed, abused and sometimes whipped; that they are kept AS prisoners; and that they are not paid the contract price for their labor Peon- age Is what this sort of things Is termed in law, and, if the charge is proved, some persons connected with the company will suffer
 The stories may be congregations, and it Is to be hoped for the sake of hu- manity that they are so; but the mere circulation of them whether true or false, does great harm, because every time it is reported abroad that immigrants are badly treated an influence adverse to im- migration to the south is set at work. No matter how well the new corners may be treated elsewhere. the stories of i'll treatment in isolated cases will be taken as descriptive of the general condition of immigrants in tbe south and will render useless much of the effort the southern people are making to induce cap able foreigners to come into this part es the country to live.

FOOD HELPS
In Management of a Railroad.

Speaking of food, a railroad man
says;
MY work puts me out in all kinds of
weather, subject TO irregular hours for
meals and compelled to eat all kinds of
food.
For seven years I was constantly
troubled with Indigestion, caused by
eating heavy. fatty, starchy, greasy,
poorly cooked food, such as are most
accessible to men in my business. Gen.
orally each meal or lunch was followed
by distressing pains and burning sem
sations i'm my stomach, which destroyed
my sleep and almost unified me for
work. Ny brain was so muddy .,ld
foggy that 1t was hard for me to- dis
charge my duties properly.
This lasted till about a year 20,
when my attention was called to Grape
Nuts food by a newspaper ad.. and ]
concluded to try if. Since then / have
used Grape Nuts at nearly every meal,
and sometimes between meals. We
railroad men have little chance to pre-
pare our food I'm our cabooses. and /
find Graz e-Nuts mighty handy, for 1t is
ready cooked.
ITO make a long story short. Grape
Nuts has made a new man of me-
have no more burning distress in my
stomach, nor any other symptom of
indigestion. I can digest anything so
long as eat Grape-Nuts. and my brain
works as clearly and accurately as an
engineers watch, and my old nervous
troubles have disappeared entirely. .
