He Got Letter From Hell.

From the Kennebee Journal.
 James Wight of Rocloland, received last week a letter plainly postmarked He'll It was something new to him, as it will be to the reader, that the place indicated is within the jurisdiction of the Postal Un- ion, and he has some curiosity as the geographical location of it. The letter did not smell of birthstone, nor was there anything uncanny about 1t save the post mark. Opening it MT Wight found that the letter was written by a friend who was an assistant surgeon in the United States navy on one of the warships that visited Rockland some time since, when the acquaintance was formed, and was written at and mailed from his native Vil- lage In Norway. In the Norwegian lan- guage there is nothing internal about Hell, and 1t probably never occurs to the residents that the name appearing as a postmark on a letter to Engllsh-speaking countries might be q bit startling.

BABY INCUBATOR
 WILL BE TESTED
EFFORT WILL BE MADE TO SAVE LIFE OF TINY BABY GIRL FROM NORTH BIRMINGHAM IN THIS MANNER.

A wee, tiny bit of a baby girl who is so small the doctors say she can hardly live more than two or three weeks longer is to be placed in a baby incubator and given chance to fight for her life. Del mar V. Staley, the baby incubator man, states his belief is that her life will be saved The baby's parents reside in North Birmingham, and she is the patient of reputable Birmingham physicians.
 MT. Staley arrived in Birmingham few days ago for the purpose of placing some baby incubators on exhibition at the State fair. Immediately upon arriving here he started on a search for one of these tiny parcels of humanity. He only had to try for a short while when he was informed of this baby at North Birmingham. The doctors advised him and the parents that the baby could hard ly live for more than two or three weeks. MT. Staley secured the consent of phy- sicians and family to place the infant in an incubator and telegraphed to his man at Mobile to express him one of the incubators immediately.
 This incubator should reach here today, and as soon as 1t is received it will be taken to the Hillman hospital and the baby placed in 1t. After the fair opens up 1t will be removed to the fair staying there the entire time. Trained nurses will be in attendance all the time, and the baby will be fed every two hours during the day and every three hours at night. Only the very finest grades of baby food and carefully prepared milk will be fed 1t. The quantities will, of course, be very small. The effort is also being made to secure three or four more babies to be placed in the incubators.
 The outcome of this particular case will be awaited with interest by physicians here. While the baby incubator has all ready shown that it can do the work, 1t has never been tested locally, and will undoubtedly attract great attention at the fair,

Commercial Term in Law.

From the New York Press.
 The plaintiff was stating his case: Your Honor I was walking alongside of the waiting train when this man, who Is stranger to me- and without any cause whatever, reached out of the car window and planted a couple of power ful blows upon my face.
 Your Honor" expostulated the de- fendant, "I was so enraged by the delay of that train and the miserable service of that road in general, that I just had to give vent to my feelings in some way. l couldn't restrain myself"
 'T feel for you,' admitted the judge, who had had occasion to travel on the same road, 'but I am compelled to fine you, nevertheless. That pair of hand-me- downs will cost you just $10.'

A Learned Chimney Sweep.

From the London Globe.
 M. Koloman Zanzi chimney sweeper of Budapest, is probably unique in his pro- fession.
 His mornings and days generally he de- votes to clearing tthe sooty ways of the material world his evenings to exploring the obscurities of the region of intellect For years 1t had been his practice, once the working hours of the day were done. to retire for a long evening of study. Science, history, and law were his favor ite subjects. Some years since he became a bachelor in arts, two years ago he quail flied as a mining engineer, and now he has passed quite brilliantly his examlna- ton for the doctorate in law. Friends have asked him if he did not intend to go tc the bar. But they little knew their philosopher.
 "Why?" he inquired quite simply. 'I gain good living among chimneys. I have good connection. shall remain q chimney sweep"

Uses of Tissue Paper.
New York Times.

From the New York Times
 For packing glass, china and ornaments, roll of tissue paper is invaluable.
 When packing hats, wisp of tissue paper should be twisted around all up- standing ends of ribbons and wings, to prevent crushing.
 Dress and blouse sleeves should be stuffed with soft paper, and sheet of it placed between the folds.
 Silk handkerchefs. faces and ribbons should be ironed between q layer of tissue paper; and it Is also a fine polsher for steel buckles and hatpins.

Alabama Resources.

Alabama has deposits of coal to run Inc universe; smoke from the coke ovens and furnaces rivals Pittsburg in it's pillar of cloud by day and of fire by night. The iron supplies are ineXhaustable. From it's basic steel is fashioned the unbreak- able rails, which bid fair to overstep tho capacity of the Bessemer steel rails.
 Alabama has millions of acres of pine forest, the lumber from which Is filling the depleted supplies Of our northern for ests.
 Alabamas newly discovered cement rock is being converted into thousands of bar rels of the famous Portland cement, which is used m every structure where imperlsh able material is needed. and it is becoming a wide commerce.
 Alabama legislature has just laid the foundation for temperance, and by sut- 1cent expenditure of money the broad est foundations for education. and by law tried to establish the right to dominate and control it's intrastate affairs
 The Alabama legislature and governor have been advertised by some interested interest as demagogic and destructive to corporate interest. I will state to you that our laws are sound safe and conservd- tive, and when closely analysed and nn- derstood will be found upbuilding to every species Of property and interest and government All of these conditions, physical. material. fraternal. by the con- tiguity of commerce and natlonalism, are ours and yours first, the worlds next.
