WHAT SULPHUR DOES
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease.

The mention of sulphur will recall TO
many of us the early days when our
mothers and grand-mothers gave us our
daily dose OF sulphur and molasses every
spring and fall.
1t was the universal spring and fall
blood purifier" tonic and cure-all, and
mind you, this old-fashioned remedy was
not without merit.
The idea was good, but the remedy was
crude and unpalatable, and a large guam
tity had to be taken to get any effect
Nowadays we get all the beneficial eff
feet of sulphur in a pafatable, concen-
trated form, that single grain is far
more effective than tablespoonful Of
the crude sulphur ..4
In recent years, research and expert
ment have proven that the best sulphur
for medicinal use is that obtained from
Calcium Calcium Sulphde) and sold in
drug stores under the name of Stuart's
Calcium Waters. They are small choco-
late coated pellets and contain the active
medicinal principle of sulphur in a highly
concentrated effective form.
Few people are aware OF the value of
this form Of sulphur In restoring and
maintaining bodily vigor and health; sui
phur acts directly on the liver. and ex-
cretory organs and purifies and enriches
the blood by the prompt elimination Of
waste material.
Our grandmothers knew this when thew
dosed US with sulphur and mola sses every
spring and fall but the crudity and i'm
purity OF ordinary flowers of sulphur were
often worse than the disease, and cannot
compare with the modern concentrated
preparations of sulphur. of which
Stuart's Calcium Waters is undoubtedly
the best and most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for liver
and kidney troubles and cure constipa-
ton and purify the blood in way that
often surprises patient and physician
alike.
DIR. r. NJ Wilkins while experimenting
with sulphur remedies soon found that
the sulphur from Calcium was superior
to any other form. He says: "For liver
Kidney and blood troubles. especially
when resulting from constipation or
malaria, ! have been surprised at the re-
suits obtained from Stuart's Calcium
Waters. III patients suffering from boiis
and pimples and even deep-seated car
buncles, / have repeatedly seen them dry
up and disappear in four or five days,
leaving the skin clear and smooth AL
though Stuart's Calcium Waters is a pro-
prietary article. and sold by druggists.
and for that reason tabooed by many
physicians, yet I know of nothing so
safe and reliable for constipation. liver
and kidney troubles and especially In ali
forms of skin diseases as, this remedy"
At any rate people who are tired u
pills., cathartics and so-called blood
purifiers" will find in Stuarts Calcium
Waters far safer, more palatable and
elective preparation.

The ministers council of Abingdon dis

resolution seeking to abolish the four
year term for ministers at churches.
The resolution will be presented to the

This matter is one of the most i'm
PORTRAIT that will be considered by the
conference at this session. There Is a
strong movement to abolish the four-year

stroys their usefulness. For instance
they point out that when preacher is

PR0BATING WHITE BOYS
Judge Feaein Is Trying Little Differ

PROBATING WHITE BOYS

| The probation system for white boys.
inaugurated by Judge Feagn of the police
court, is now in active operation. Join
delpolder. manager of the Boys Club,
is probation officer and he is actively
engaged in keeping in touch with the
wsyward youths of the city
All the white boys under 16 years of
age carried to police court for any reason
are placed on probation. The officer
watches over them after that, sees that
they are kept at home and not allowed
to spend their time on the streets and
in bad company If the boys are arrest
ed and brought into court a second time,
they are sent to the Boys Industrial
School at East Lake
Working Well.
There are about score of boys on pro-
baton in the city now. and as yet, under
this system, none Of them have been sent
TO the industrial school.
The plan of placing white boys on
probation is the natural result of the sue
cess of the plan adopted for the negroes
About three years ago Judge Feagin COM
menced placing little negro boys on pro-
baton, ard on a second offense they were
sent to the country to farms and to n
place near Tuscaloosa set aside for that
purpose ny negro man interested in the
negro youth.
There are now over 200 of the negro boys
from Birmingham on the farms through
out the state. and Sam DAILY has about
80 on his place near Tuscaloosa. The re-

Regarding Environments.
The system for white boys differs some
what from that for the negroes. The
white probation officer is paid by the
city His duties are to go into the homes
of the boys ON probation, investigating
their home surroundings and social condi-
lions, and to find out If the boys go
wrong of their own accord or on account
of the bad environment.
In nine out of ten cases, according to
Judge Feagin, the surroundings are such
as to cause the boys to become street loaf
ers and get into trouble. Among several
cases Investigated it has been found that
the boys had step fathers or mothers who
were in the habit of beating the boys I'M
mercifully, and these parents have been
tried in court and convicted. Judge Fea-
I gin says that children of such parents
are not to blame IL they get into trouble
and that it is a blessing to take them
away from such homes.
"I believe" said Judge Feagin yester-
day, that we will have had such excel
lent results from this system by the time
the legislature meets that we can go be-
fore that body and get a bill passed pro-
vidng suitable probation law. IL that
can be done it will greatly facilitate our
work"

of the session-the W ork of the Hobbies.
We will continue our special telegraph news service
which is the best furnished by any weekly newspaper in
