NOW IS THE TIME.

There has not been held In Alabama since the war State Fair like those held prior to 1880 The State was not then pos sesscd of the railroad facilities of the present day, Yet people and. exhibits came from every county. There was q spirit of pride in the annual exhibits and contests and the collections from the farms and the stock yards, would have done credit to any people.
 The movement here in Montgomery is to revive those good old days and to have real Fair and Exhibit once each year that will surpass any other State. We can do 1t and indications are that it will be done. Those in charge are going ahead with the work and the grounds and Ill surroundings will be creditabIe to the Fair Association and the whole State. That interest is grow ing is evi denced by an article on this page of The Advertiser from The opelika News. That paper takes the true posi- ton that Montgomery is peculiarly the place for. great State Fair The peo- pie Of Mortsomer$ will do their whole duty in the premises, but we want to emphasize the fact that. this will not be local. but 2 state Fair.

AN EXPRESSIVE PICTURE

A recent cartoon represents a winged female flying over the sea near high precipice carrying in her arms bag of money On top of the bluff is an old man, loaded down with money bags. making frantic efforts to reach the one held by the flying woman, and so anxious to get his hands on 1t, that he doesn't see that the next step will car ry him over the precipice and down to the rocks or gulf below.
 It Is an impressive conception, and one which is true to life, as any one can see who keeps up with passing events. All over this great country there are men of great wealth. much more than they can ever find rational use for in this life. but like the man in the picture they are reaching out for more dollars. totally unmindful of what is before them. They are so ab- sorbed in money-getting that they take no heed to their feet and can see noth- ing except the lure of wealth ahead of them. Such men remind us of MIlton's description of Mammon: 'Mamnion, the least erected spirit that
 fell
 From heaven; for even in heaven his
 looks and thoughts
 Were always downward bent, admiring
 more
 The riches of heavens pavement, trod-
 den gold
 Than ought divine or holy else enjoyed"
 As the lost spirit of the fallen angel could see nothing but the golden pave ment under his feet, so the modern worshipper of riches, having no gold beneath him to keep his eyes down. ward, keeps them strained ahead to discover more gold upon which he may fasten his clutches. If he were walk ing over streets paved with gold he would never be able to see anything else. It is a mystery how the money lust can so completely and thoroughly dominate any rational man that his whole life and soul seem to be bound up in t. The pleasure of getting and keeping appears to over-power all other feelings. They can't see that they may be nearing precipice over which they may at any moment go down to ruin. and that greed and ava rice can bring no lasting good or happiness. They are Mammons without the golden pavement.

Letters to the Editor.

4AOAtBOAtStyB aA0ss 4Ady IGlu. Editor Advertiser:
 I noticed in a special from Dothan, this mornings issue of The Advertiser, in regard to the trial of Byron Tram nell, statements in reference to my self about which I wish to make a statement.
 My evidence in the Trammell case was a statement of facts and not of theories. he having been under my care treatment of a disease which had manifested itself as an organic change In the brain substance. All of the physicians summoned for the defense agreed with my opinion as to Mr. Trammells condition. And those sum moned by the State, I was informed, were never asked to testify, presuma- : ply because they. too, would have con frmed my opinion.
 If Solicitor Parks was as familiar with medical literature as he, presum- ably Is with the literature of the law, he might have heard of me before this,
 Should he care to know me better would refer him to the files of the leading Medical Journals of this coun- try and of Europe, such as The Amer jean Journal of the Medical Sciences. Diseases, the great English publica tton, Brain" published in London, The Brit ish Medical Journal, and The London Lancet, and various German and French and Italian Medical Reviews also re- ports of The Johns Hopkins Hospital. Recourse to these-if the gentleman has not already had enough of me-to reviews of my work as contained in them. will give him at least an intro- ductiou.

urryERsrrr. oF ALABAMA.

The 18th anniversary of the opening of the .Euiverstty of Alabama will take place May z7th to soth. It's alumni are scattered over a large extent of country. but many of them will travel many mites to be present on the great occasion. Not one is left of those who gradual sn in the first years of its work. but there is goodiy list of loyal sons of later years who still remain to honor their State and alumni mater. There is great work for these men to do for the University heads their helping hand In order to build it up to what 1t should be. We reproduce and endorse the fol- lowing words of the Mobile Register:
 As the child of prosperous parents, 1t started in life with every prospect pleasing. only to find that no parental care could make the path secure or success sure. It was plundered Dy It's guardian early in the journey: then set fire to and burned by the public enemy. Some of its fortune has been recovered and returned to 1t. put not all; and in these later years 1t has lived the life of a poor relation, that should be thankful for what it gets. and not be asking continually Tor more, The People of Alabama ought to take this opportunity-the anniversary oc- casion--to resolve to put the universi- ty in condition to do the work 1t was designed to do. Alabama does practi- caIly nothing for it, yet youthful Ala bamians are crowding to its doors, clamoring for an education;. and these have to be denied, because there is not any room. Think of II, people of Ala bana! Come down from the housetops, where you are spending time gazing at the railway rate stars, and attend to something that concerns you and your future more nearly. Shall such state of things as exists at the University continue?
 Speak out, Alumni--ye sons of Tuscaloosa. Wherever you are, let your voices be heard for the pure mother who gave you your education. Now is indeed the time. Let the seven ty-fifth anniversary be the first year of the beginning of the new life in the old institution.

THE ART OF BEING THERE.

In a recent magazine issue there is a short item headed, Being There when Wanted" which would make a good text for a sermon on business methods, or lack of method, and it ap- plies as well to the man as to the boy, hut boys who are in employment should especially heed it, because they are in the formative period of human life. and the habits formed in boyhood arc hard to overcome in later life.
 All of us have seen the two classes of office boys, to take them as an ex- ample. There is one who is always on hand when his employer needs or wants him, unless he has been sent out. When not officially absent. as we might express it, he is always within hearing and if there is a call from his employer he Is ready to answer it promptly. There is no need to send out hue and cry for him, or wait till he sees fit to show up. That kind of boy will establish a reputation for faithfulness and attention that will always ensure hinI a position. What is more, he will build up character and form habits that will stand him in good stead when he reaches manhood and has to depend on his own efforts.
 Opposed to such a boy Is the one who is never there when wanted He may be dilatory in coming to his place

A NICE DISTINCTION.

The status of the duck has been fix ed by no less authority than the United States Court of Appeals of California. The case came up, as has happened in mora than one instance. in connection with the tariff. It seems that under eur system the eggs of fowls are du- tiable at the rate of five cents per dog en. while the eggs of birds are admit ted free Some eggs of ducks had been brought over from China and the Con- signee insisted that they were birds eggs and not dutiable. It went be- fore the Court of Appeals and that tri- bunal holds that ducks are not birds. but fowls, -,., es -,g !
 This is another of those nice dues- tions that customs officials are so off, ten called on to decide. We go to the bird is sany feathered. flying biped. great or small. old or young" Then we turn to fowl and find the authority assuring us that a fowl is 'any bird, as the fowls of the air" We hark back in search of information to old Noah Webster and he tells us that a bird is "a warm blooded, feathered ver- tebrate. provided with wings" and the same authority tells us that fowl is ''any bird,.
 Any of these authoritative definitions will fit anything. from the tiny hum- ming bird to the mighty condor and we don't get much satisfaction from them. We know that in former times the large flying creatures were gener- ally called fowls and the smaller ones were called birds. but we think it would puzzle Solomon to fix the exact size of each Nowadays, as all know, the terms are used indiscriminately, only that the domestic varieties are usually called fowls. If the tariff schedule had fixed an import duty simply on eggs. there would be no dificulty, for that would include the entire business. Really it should not be a matter of much inn portance for our own country is pret- ty well able to produce all the eggs needed. and it is only in the case of rare foreign kinds that the problem may cone up for solution. All this hair-splitting doesn't help the matter much all the same.

 For three years a special commit zee on torms and services of the Gem eral Assembly, headed by Rev. Dr. hlenry van Dyke has been working on ies Of the completed book were received from the Presbyterian G.cfal Board of Publication on Saturday.
 The approval of the General Assemb- for use in Presbyterian churches was not obtained without a struggle. nor will 1t be possible to introduce the books into individual churches without some opposition: Many loyal Presby- terians, especially those of Scotch de- church as savoring of Romanism or Episcopalinism. The best that could be done in the General Assembly was to secure its permissive approval, and announcement, For voluntary use in the churches"
 Now that the Presbyterian prayer book Is published, however. ali that remains. for those who oppose it is to rtfrain from It's use. and 1t is predicted by Presbyterian leaders that many churches will so refrain. In the East, however and in the large cities of the country ths new book is expected to ba largely used.
