TO PROTECT GAME
PRESIDENT JOHN WALLACE AP-
 PEALs TO PEOPLE.
Asks Representatives In House and Senate Be Called on to Pass
 Stringent Hunting and
 Ffsbing Laws.

G
 Huntsville, June so.--tSpecial )-- Hon. John H. Wallace. Jr. President of the Alabama Game and Fish Pro. tective Association today issued tf' following address:
 To Alabamians who wish to protect our ftsh--Since the organization of tho Alabama Game and Fish Protective As. sociation four months ago we have prosecuted an active campaign in be- half of our proposed game and fisf law In every section of the State. The people have manifested great interest In the movement as is evidenced by hundreds of letters that we hsrs re- ceived in which most cordial cooper ation is pledged
 The reckless and wanton slaughter the trapping, netting, and shipping ci game, the dynanniting, seining and net ting of Ash. has all but exterminated game and fish in Alabama. Therefore orly by the enactment and rigid en- forcerlent of a stringent same and fish protective law can we save the <ew remaining species from extinction.
 We propose to submit to the next Legislature for enactment a bill with the following principal features:
 First--A shorter open hunting season
 Second-BaG limit on game.
 Third--The inauguration of a game and fish warden system as the only ef- fcient means of enforcing the game and fish law
 Fourth-HuntArs' license tax for adults hunting on lands other than their own and a nonresident hunters license tax.
 Firth-Prevention of sale or ship ping of game.
 Sixth--Prevertion of netting CT trap ping of game.
 Scv"nth-T reyentinn of dynamiting, netting or seining of fish
 These suggestions are in line with the recent fish legislation that has proven mos. effective in States whers it has been tried. The recent Demo- cratic Convention of the State of Ten nnssee pleo ed q game and fish law plank in the State platform or the par ty, so great was the oemand of the people for its speedy enactment
 The economic value of game and fish as well as of song and inscctivnrous birds has never been fully realized by the people, but they are beginning to : ee fiat they have slept on their rights and are now on the alert to save what we have left With the hope cr it's fu- ture increase
 If we pass good fish laws the many beautiful h,nrid streams that are now fishless can be re-stocked with Gov ernment fir. and iE few years the mountain trout. the salmon. the small

THE SPIRIT OF SEVENTY-SIX
BY BEATRICE sTURGEs.

In all the State there was not a bet ter known citizen than Thomas Jeffer- son Kirby. Mayor of his own town for two terms, State Senator for a number of years, and connected with most of the big affairs of the district. he was a person of power and influence. honored fin public, rather feared in private, and disliked by those who had gone con- trary to his will. The Kirby spirit was acknowledged throughout the State as compound of ice and iron. The J -dge was a born leader. his friends were wont to say. He never followed. He would organize a club or association or committee and run it. No passive membership for him; if he could not be president or chairman or the leacing member of the board-whfch ever |, might happen to be--he would resign. But he rarely resigned. Most people were content to let him run things: he did 1t SO well and he had such a cheery, genial way about him.
 Papa you ought to be President" his eldest daughter, Ethel, used to say to him, you like to boss people around SO"
 But papa, knowing full we'll that he had far more autocracy in Pine Crest than he could exercise in the White House, was satisfied to stay where he was.
 There were six of the Kirby children. and ever since they could remember papa had done everything for them. TO be sure theii Aunt Emma had taken thesv mothers place and mended and tended them for years, but such was the spirit of the household that it ap- Deared that the Judge did 1t all. Ger fainly he ruled them with the tradi . ticnal rod of iron. He knew what was best for them. he prescubed 1t; they had but to follow. In public life, In politics. no one was a stronger advo- cate of liberty. no one spoke more elo- cuently on the subject of freedom than Judge Kirby. and. as Is often the case. no one was a greater tyrant.
 summer and Chester Dean appeared on her horizon, she had her first conflict with the Judge. It was June and Cnes- ter had walked home with her from garden party. They paused at the gate few moments, as the Judge was sit- ting on the iron. piazza reading magazine article which held such er- roneous views that ne felt impelled to challenge them in an open letter to the local paper. He glanced up in time 70 see Ethel break off a rose from the bush ciambering over the gate post and fasten it in the buttonhole of a young man who held her hand at parting rather Icngcr than was absolutely nec- essary.

 Tt was Chester Dean. papa" she an- swered. not without trepidation. He says you know his father!"
 A grim smile passed over the Judges face. 'Humph! I should say I did. He will know me, too. some day, better than he does now"

 T nm sorry to iisappoint you, and we will all go automobiilng instead: |: 1 but want it distinctly understood that l the Kirbys and the Deans arc not friends" Then he return sd to his mag azine with an air of finality. He could scarcely explain to Ethel that he had forced the elder Dem out of one asso- ciation they were both interested iE anc that Dean had then made things so uncomfortable for him in another affair that Kirby had resigned in q hun. 1t did not render the situation any plcasanter either to know that Dean hal taken his place in the sec- oni organiz ation and vas rrnring it with great success. But a time would come. and the Judge was trying to scheme out some way to eclipse his
 rival effeetually. At any rate. it could become known about town that the
 Kirby children were forbidden to asso- ciate with the Deans. That was some
 thing.
 So of course Chester could not visit
 Ethel. but it made little difference in their seeing each other. There were the woods and meadows, delightfully."- sweet and fragrant meeting places. to say
 nothing of the hospitable houses of friends.
 All that had happened a year ago. Rebellion against what she considered her fathers injustice ranked in Eth els young heart but long habit had made her yielding to his will It was so with them all Even Rover, the in corrigible. would answer neekly to his masters tones when no amount of coaxing on the children's part could move him. But somewhere in the dis position of each of the six was spark of the spirit of independence they heard their father talk about to other people.
 Every Fourth of July there were great celebrations in Pine Crest. Many of the people from the surrounding country came in to attend the meeting which Judge Kirby always organized and addressed. Lemonade and cake and popcorn were always served in great quantities at the Judges expense, and in the evening a grand display of fire works was made on the Judges lawn. It was always an exciting time and the JudSe, DeinR Iue center ot tuinBs' eh- joyed every minute of it.
 The day dawned beautifully bright and clear. The little Kirbys were up at the first streak of dawn firing off crackers and risking their lives with that cheerful recklessness which is the characteristic Fourth of July spii it with the American youth.
 Immediately after breakfast the chill dren filed into the library with their aunt. followed by the servants the ex- treme rear being guarded by old Rover Here their father. in his Sunday frock coat and with a pomp of manner worthy the highest cause. read to them. &C.,

What Ia TOnief


 A tonic is a medicine that increases fhe appetite. increases the digestion increases the power of the system to assimilate and appropriate food.
 This is the action of all true tonics.
 To be sure there are tonics that are simply stimulants. They irritate the stomach. and an unnatural craving for food is excited This class of medi cines should be classed as stimulants rather than tonics.
 A tonic. as above stated. auickens all the functions of digestion. It invig orates the body by furnishing more force for the body.
 The action of true tOnics Is not tenn pOrary, but lasting.
 Thel lassitude which warm weather brings Is due to an under-supply Of nutrition for the body. Plenty of food may be on the table. but the food is not relished, or else Is not digested Slight catarrhal Arrangements of the satomach and bowels will so effectually Hnterfere with digestion as to produco SEreat depression of the system.
