SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE
What is Causing the Increase of Ca-
 tarrh in Montgomery.

In spite of the best efforts of medical men. catarrhal troubles are increasing not only in Montgomery, but all over the country.
 Catarrh is a germ disease. and to cure 1t germ life in the breathing or Eans should be destroyed, and to do this no other treatment has such positive and beneficial action as Hyomei.
 When the mucous membrane Is irri- tated and raw and the tissues weaken cd. there Is an ideal lodging place for catarrhal germs. Breathe Hyomei and see how quickly it soothes the mem .hranes. vitalizes the tissues and de- stroVs all the disease germs, rendering catarrh no longer possible.
 There Is no dangerous stomach drug RipR when Hyomei Is used: no tables or liquid mixtures destroying digestion.
 Rreathed through the neat pocket in haIer that comes with every Hyomai outfit. the healing balsams penetrate to the most remote air cells of the throat, nose and lungs. destroying the catarrhal germs so that quick recovery follows.

 Receiver Albert c. Sexton, of the AL lanta- Birmingham Insurance Company will leave tonight for Atlanta, where he goes with the hope of effecting af- engagements for a final adjustment df the affairs of the bankrupt insurance company.
 Receiver Sexton said yesterday that he has been advised by the chief clerk in the Atlanta office that everything is now in shape for final settlement, and all that is necessary is the order of the court. This will hardly be given until the policyholders have all agreed to the terms of the final settlement and division of the funds.

SALARIES OF
 SUPERVISORS School Superintendents
 Get More Money. PAY NEARLY THIRD HEAVIER Forty-one Counties Have Special
 Tax of One MilL County Educational 0alcers wfn Hsn- de More Money than Before and
 Their Percentase VIII be Cor respondingiy Increased. |. N

Under the provisions of the educa- tional law. County Superintendorits of Schools will receive third more mon- ry this year than they did last year, with the exception of those who re- ceived the minimum amount allowed by law, and in counties where there is no extra tax.
 There are forty-one counties in the State where a one-mill tax Is charged in addition to the regular appropria- tion made out of the general State funds. In Escambia county two-mill tax is levied and in Baldwin a 3-mfli tax is levied, which, added to the three mill State appropriation, runs the to- tai up to six mill s. There Is a one and half mili levy in Jefferson county.
 As the superintendents get four per cent of all moneys disbursed by them. 1t is easy to compute the amounts they will receive this year. and these amounts have been made out in the office of the State Superintendent of Education. It is enacted, however, that no county superintendent shall TO- ceive more than $1,S00 from the State for disbursing school funds, no matter snow much he handles.
 There is no restriction, however, for the handling of extra funds, and in many Instances this will run the sal- ares or Ine county Supef1ntend6nts up to between 5000 and $5.o00.
 Anoher provision, which is not gen. orally known, perhaps, tc the superin- tendents, is that sectional 10 of the pub- lie school law. allows the county su- perintendents an expense account for stationery, stamps, etc The portion of the sectior referring to this reads as. follows.
 @rhe Court of County Commissioners or Board of Revenue of each county shall provide at the expense of the county all necessary blank books, sta- ttonery and postage for the use Of County Boards Of Education of the County"
 In view Of the fact that the coun- ty superintendents are getting more honey than ever before. a. great deal more is expected of them, and State Superintendent of Education Harry c. Gunnels believes that this will be of great benefit to the schools of the State.
 The amounts of the salaries of the county superintendents in the Various counties aRe an follows.

Reader, Have You a IIcmsy

If were to tell number Of my
friends that they don't know whst
a home is they would grow some
what indignant perhaus use hard
words. And yet it may be re-
marked that the number eli persons
who know waat a genuine home is,
ny experience, is Surprisingly few.
One man in good circumstances
win ten us that he hes a fine house
Of bis own, ia which every comfort
and convenience are provided. He
hes a wife and children there also,
and they give life to the place
Very true. But does ne prefer
that home, thus furnished and thus
enlivened to every other place III

hour of leaving com IS, and smile

Does he love TO Sit by The cheerful

If rot, be has 40 home in the dear

All y happy is he who knows and
appreciates the full bliss of home
whose heart is warmed and hui
manized by its cheerful influences,
and who feels how superior in pur-
ity of pleasure are all its enjoy
ments to the turmoil Of delights of
OUT door life. Thrice happy is such
q man. He has discovered the only
paradise this world can now afford.
1t is only such man who can have
deep and sincere pity for the
unfortunate creatures who are
homeless. He regards them as be-
ing cut off from the best iuflu-
ences of earth, and exposed to the
action of all the darker waves of
life. He feels keenly for him who
has no fireside-no dear ones to
welcome him with smiles, and
prattle over the little history Of the
day-no tongue to soothe when
heavy cares have troubled the mind
and rendered the heart sore; and
the sympathy Of such a man is not
slow to overflow To acts Of benev-
olence. A good home is the
soutce Of the fountain of charity in
the heart. MY advice to those who
have no home such as is de-
scribed above, is to ger. one as
soon as possible. Get honest Fill
them with the objects Of love end
and seek there for the
pure delights which the world be
side cannot afford.

X Letter From Barney.

Mir. Editor:-Permit me to speak to my friends through your famous paper, and tell them about the little town of Canton, N. c.
 1 now have branch office here, that is I have to work on the banks of the town braneh.) Canton is sit- uated eighteen miles northwest of Asheville, in beaueiful little valley on the banks of the Pigeon river right in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountain, and has population of 2,000. Here is located the plant of the Champion Fiber Works, the largest and most modern plant of it's kind In the world. They have been almost two years in erecting the buildings and placing the machinery; are just now rushing the work to completion, and expect to get a part of the mill in operation by the first of the year. Their buildings cover about twelve acres of land; are from one to eight stories high, and are filled from ground to top with the most modern and improved machine ry, from the great mammoth wood crushing machinery-a machine that will take in great pieces of wood and grind it into fine pulp-and then it goes through great tanks of chemicals of different kind, until finally it comes out of the machine fine grade of paper.
 They have now in their yards about 500,00 cords of wood, and have timber enough bought to run them 50 years They will employ in the mill when in operation 800 to 1000 men.
 MT. Editor, why can't our old town get something like this and boom and build up the town and improve the country?
 Well, the money grabbers have hit us over here and batted us up pretty hard. 1 hayn't had but about one dol lar in real U. S. dough- in two months, and I "fotched" that from Forrest City with me. If you have any real stuff down there, I believe I'll run down and see how it looks.
 Well, old friend, as you see my old pards, just tell lem that you didn't see me.
 Wishing you merry Xmas, 1 am yours for good money.
