A Heavy Load to Carry.

Along with dyspepsia comes nervous ness and general ill-health Why? Be cause a disordered stomach does not per nit the food to be properly digested, and its products assimilated by the system. The blood is charged with poisons which come from this disordered digestion, and. in turn the nerves are not fed on good, red blood, and we see symptoms of nerv- ousness, sleeplessness and general break down. It is not head work, nor over phy- sical exertion that does 1t, but poor stom- ach work. With poor, thin blood the body is not protected against the attack of germs of grip, bronchitis and consump- ton.

NUMBER OF IMPORTANT
 RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED
Many interesting Diseussions-Eduea- tion Should Touch the Heart as Well as the Mind-An En-
 couraging Outlook.

A The Alabama Educational association held the last session of its annual meet ing yesterday morning and adjourned about noon. "The Teachers Mission was the subject of addresses by Superintend- ent A. F. Harmon of Florence and Miss Mary. Young of Selma.
 Professor Harmon traced briefly the history of the school as an institution and from the great progress made in the past few years he looked for even better things in the future. He dwelt upon the high importance of the Christian spirit in the1 teacher, for the influence of the school room, he said, was indellbly inn pressed upon the lives of the pupils. It was the province of the teacher Pro- lessor Harmon said, to touch the soul as well as the mind.

 Miss Mary Young was then introduced. She said in part
 Has the teacher improved since the days of Goldsmith's village master? Is he an active agent in right living. or a mere pedant pouring out his accumulated learning upon the passive recipient, otherwise termed child? We hope and believe that there has been marked im- provement in the profession.
 "A teachers calling is second only to a preachers; we are willing to admit that it is second. The future of this country is in the teachers hands. What we wish our nation tomorrow we must make our schools today The teacher trains the men and women, not only for time, but for eternity.
 ''The one comprehensive end of educa- ton is to prepare man to live completely The teacher should not enter his calling without due preparation.

 Imperfect Constitution.
 The following resolution was presented by President Abercrombie and unani- mously adopted:
 Where's, The constitution of 1901 Is educationally far superior to that of lS75 1t is yet very imperfect in some of it's provisions. These imperfections consist of the omissions of provisions now abso- lutely necessary for the continued de- velopment of the public school system.

Ample Room.

The main building is solidly construct ed. It contains 2f rooms. all well lighted and of good size. Seventy-two cots can be readily planned in those rooms, and the lot is ample fer twice or even thrice the present accommodations In that way room cam be secured for all negro patients that may apply
 St. Vincents and the 1Iillman have wards for negroes, but their contracts with railroad companies and other sub scrbers to their expense fund keep all such wards crowded, and the negro who is wounded or seriously III cannot always secure admittanee there. Both of them are filled to their capacity, and as many negroes are received as in all kindness and generosity can be cared for, but over and above all existing accommodate tions those persons familiar with the situation say there is a plain demand for another public hospital to be filled with the negro victims of accidents.
 Already the second floor. of the home has been transformed into q hospital, and the entire building will be turned over to that purpose as soon as the old folks and orphans are securely housed in cottages on the lot.

A BRILLIANT EVENT.
At the olympic Theatre. st.
Louis, Week of Nov. 4.

-
Whist will undoubtedly con-
stitute the most brilliant amuse-
ment event of che season thus far,
will occur ut the Olympic theatre
the week OF Nov. 4, when Klaw &
Erlanger will present the Sousa
Opera Company in the latest COM
position of the celebrated "March
King" John Philip Sousa, his
successful comic opera entitled
"The Free Lance" with Joseph
Cawthorn as the stellar feature of
the original organization of one
hundred notable comedians and
singers, which presented "The
Free Lance" nearly all last season
at the New Amsterdam Theatre,
New York City.
"The Free Lance" is the largest
musical organization presented by
Massrs Klaw & Frlanger this sea-
son, and aside from it's beauties
of music, wit and humor, it's mag
niicent musical organizations
and extraordinary personnel of
cast, it's elaborateness of produce
tions, which is said to be as rich
and in al good taste as anything
that has preceded it under their
management, which is saying
much, after seeing their produc.
tions such as "Mother Goose"
"Humpty- Dumpty" and "Ben-
Hur' at the same theatre.
The presentation of the new
Sousa opera is always a musical
event of Importance and never is
wanting in the elements of novel;
ty. The book of "The Free
Lance" is by Harry B. Smith. the
librettist of "Robin Hood" 1t
departs from the conventional and
fairly bristles with novelty and
humor. The music throughout is
stirring, martial, sparkling and
~tuneful. All of the Sousa variety
Joyous, infectious, and soul
stirring. A Sousa opera without
marches would be like the play OF
"Hamlet" without the royal Dane.
"The Free Lance" brims over with
choruses and marches, the ryth-
mic swing of which makes audi
ences FESTIVE and auses them to
culver with melodious vibration,
set in motion by the conductors
baton.
The engagement is for one weel
with matinees Wednesday and
Saturday. Mail orders accom-.
panied by remittance will be flle6
in the order of their priority.
