A STRIKING DIFFERENCE.

A
 The following from an exchange cal- cd 's,rhe Difference" should cure man of his admiration of the other one.
 She was a beautiful, beautiful iady' in a brown Empire gown, with dream of a hat. and saples that must have cost thousands
 She walked slowly, with languio grace and a delicate murmur of refin- ed undersilks. She seemed to i'll the very air about her with glory ana the faint breath of violets.
 She was, in short, exquisite-trom the dear little curls dropping from her perfect golden coiffure to her dainty boots.
 her as she swept languidly from pie ture to picture.
 she's the prettiest picture in sight, isn't she" whispered the woman. (rhe woman's hair, be 1t said, stood out In straight wisps, and her hat made ner look tired and haggard, and her fur piece cost exactly $9, and 1t would be best not to mention the age of her gown.)
 she is certainly stunning" observ- ed the man. And the woman noticed that his eyes followed the living pie ture. as did those of every other man in sight.
 What you see, though" put in the woman, shrewdly. '1s merely the finish ed product If you knew how many hours and how many hands it took to make that perfect picture, you wouldn't admire it so much"
 which picture" absently inquired the man, still gazing after the Empire frock.
 "The one you are looking at." said the woman, tartly. That exquisite and waultless specimen of the mas seuse's, the manicure's, the hair dres- ser's,. the milliner's and the modiste's art Did you think she achieved all that glory herself? weff1- she didn't At least a dozen persons have labored to-day to produce her.
 somebody brought her breakfast, in bed,' ran on the woman. Someone else gave her a massage. Someone dress ed her, Another person came to do her hands. A professional did that hair That gown and hat are each the work of artists Some rich man-her. husband or sfather-paid for those furs and jewels. Someone drove her here. Some- one else jumped down from the back seat and opened the door. in order that she might not even have to exert her self so much. Is 1t any wonder she ar Iives here faultless. with not hair out of place, a picture Tor men to rave over?
 While I"-and the woman laughed --"I got up at ', hurried drought bath and breakfast and got to the office at S:30; spent five hours grinding over a desk, and. hustled straight off here to meet you. I know I don't exactly look pretty, old boy, but consider the dif- ference"
 And seeing that the man took one last look at the Empire frock, the woman paused before mirror. slieked back her hair, jerk her hat straight. dabbed her kerchief over her face and surreptiously ficked the office dust off her shoes"

Veteran Of the CIVIL war ana we'll

 Tuscumbia, March 13.-(Special. )- Col Geo. P. Reyes, a veteran ex-Con- federate soldier and newspaper writer, one of the best known men throughout the State, and a pioneer citizen of Shelf field, died at his home in Sheffield Sun day night, from a general breakdown of his physical powers. He was prob ably 80 years of age. and had been resident of Sheffield for the last twen ty-five years Colonel Keys was a man of strong character. a writer of great force and energy, and possessed won derful store-house of knowledge He was once an editorial writer on The Montgomery Advertiser, having been connected with that paper early in the seventies. He was one of the bitterest enemies to the whiskey traffic, and was fearless in condemning the evil, and had no patience with any one who con- doned 1t. Colonel Keys was a strong Methodist, and lived a faithful, con inch of less deflection would probably

SCHEME OF CANNON
PLANS TO OUTwIT THE STATEHOOD
 "INsURGENTs."
May Send the Bill to House Committee on Territories, Which Can kill the Measure With Little
 Trouble.

Washington. March 1s.-There are indications that the Statehood bill may be referred by Speaker Cannon to the Committee on Territories. This action the friends of Statehood for Indian Ter ritory and Oklahoma fear, will entirely defeat the measure The Committee can retain the bill indefinitely ana should it appear that there are "insurg- ent" votes enough to concur With the Senate. the bill would not, they say, be brought Into the House.
 Under the rules of the House, Senate amendment to House bill which changes the charge on the Treas urv sends the bill to committee auto- natlcally. The amendment In question is one granting lieu lands to the new state for school purposes in case Sec lions 13 and 33 reserved in each town ship prove to be mineral lands.
 Although the bill goes to commit tee without a motion in the House, it is still on the Speakers table. Un- less some member insists that the ref erence be made at once, the plan is to
The Montgomery advertiser., 1906-03-14

defer the reference until the return of members who have gone South on a river and harbor inspection tour. Thia delegation will return Saturday. An agreement was made before they left whereby nothing was to be done with the Statehood bill until their return.
 The news that the bill was to go to committed. which leaked out today, was somewhat disconcerting to the "iu- surgents" who have been bending their energies to strengthen their numbers in the expectation of direct vote on a motion to concur in the Senate amend ments to the bill. If some way had not been discovered to send the bill to committee, this motion to concur would have been in order and would have taken precedence over a motion to dis agree and go into conference.
 Just how the insurgents are to meet the new situation has not been decided upon. so far as can be ascertained.

HARD TO DISCHARGE WOMEN.

The following from an exchange puts in a very pathetic way the difficulty g woman finds in bearing one of life's trials-not courageous when discharg- ed. The article says:
 "The heads of business houses say that. while in many respects women work as well as men. they are very hard to discharge-so hard to discharge. indeed, that some employers, after one experience, refuse to engage another woman.
 "A man discharged" said a depart ment manager, takes the blow quietly, patiently, courageously. It hurts. but he doesn't show 1t. With pale smile he cleans out his desk, collects his money. and departs. So ends the un- pleasant episode.
 But a woman, when she reads her note of dismissal, bursts into loud sobs, and rushes at once into the managers private office.
 < gH oh. please don't discharge me- shs moans Think of the disgrace. l promise to do better; will truly. Can't I have another chanceg
 ''She gets another chance. She could get anything if in return she would cut short this wet and dreary scene. And she repeats this scene if, a week or two later, she is discharged again.
 'sWomen should learn to take a dis charge decently discharge is not necessarily disgrace, and 1t is always pretty nearly as unpleasant for the dis charger as for the dischargee. Why make it worse? Why make 1t hideous and intolerable?
 "The women who make a scene over a djschcrge harm their sisters as well as themselves. for many managers, af- ter participating in one of these scenes refuse to employ another woman."

c. B. Mccormick. president of the Birmin gham Terminals association, company formed to build big union messenger station in Birmingham, to- day stated that there was probability that plans to erect new depot in the eastern part of the city would be abandoned because property owners near the site of the station had refus- ed to sell their lots and were demand ing exorbitant figures for damages for the closing up of streets or avenues Efforts have been made 10 get conces- sions from these property owners but in vain. Mir. Mccormick stated today that the depot would not be built in that section of the city If these pro- perty owners held out and that other sites had already been taken up for consideration and in all probability would be acquired. More than half a million dollars have already been paid out for property in the eastern part of the city for the depot site.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased PORTION of
the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deaf
ness is caused by an infamed
condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inaamed you have a rumb-
ling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube be restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
