CEMENT INDUSTRY.
Government Expert Talks of Yield in
 West Alabama

Demopoiis, Feb. 25.-(Special.)- --L. C.. Lane. one of the civil engineers en- gagged In the construction of the locks on the Tombigbee and Black Warrior rivers. reports that the work is being prosecuted with determination and that in time the plans outlined will have been carried out and that the coal and iron district will receive no little benefit therefron.
 Mir. Lane is interested in the manu- facture of cement in Alabama, and says that the prospects are bright. Es- pecially in the vicinity of Demopolis. he says, is there great opportunity for development in cement. The works at this place are doing we'll but their ca- pacity Is not very large. The govern ment work on the rivers between the Birmingham district and the Mobile Bay is requiring large quantities of the product and the goods manufactured in Demopolis and elsewhere in Alabama, says Mir. Lane, is coming up to the re- quirements right along.
 MT. Lane Is of the opinion that Ala bama can supply a large portion of the cement for use in the construction of the Panama canal and, with water transportation, the compe etition of the entire world could be overcome with a price that would not only give good profit to the manufacturers. but would also be saving to the government.

BLACK, ITCHING SPOTS ON FACE
Physicians Called It Eczema in Worst Form Treated Disease for a Year but Could Not Cure It Patient Became Despondent- Suffering Promptly AIlayed and
DREADFUL DISEASE
 CURED BY CUTICURA

About four years ago I was afflicted with blaoS splotches all over my face and few covering my body, which produced a severe itching irritation, and which caused me a great deal Of annoy- ence and suffering, to such an extent that I was forced to call in two of tho leading physicians of -. After . thorough examination of the dreaded complaint they announced 1t to be skin eczema in it's worst form. They treated ms for the same for the length of one year, but the treatment did me no good. Finally became Respondent and decided to discontinue their ser vices. Shortly afterwards, my husband in reading copy of a weekly New York paper saw an advertisement of the Cuti- cura Remedies. He purchased the en- tire outfit, and after using the contents of the first bottle of Cuticura Resolvent in connection with the Cuticura Soap and Ointment, the breaking out entirely stopped. l continued the use of the Cuticura Remedies for six months, and after that every splotch was entirely gone and the affected parts were left as clear as ever. I have not felt a symp- tom of the eczema since, which was three years ago. The Cuticura Reme- dies not only cured me of that dreadful disease, eczema, but of other complicated troubles as well, and l have been the means of others being cured of the same disease by the Cuticura Remedies, and don't hesitate ill saying that Cuticura Resolvent is the best blood medicine that the world has ever known.

to the witness but in the meantime he got practically the entire document be- fore the jury by asking questions cov- crinE every one of its allegations.
 Mrs. Thaw declared she had not told Hummel the things alleged.
 One of the incidents in the affi- davit which MT. Jerome read was that while traveling in Europe Thaw ha torn her clothes from her body and had beaten her acting all the while like a person demented.
 Did you tell MT. Hummel you had found hypodermic syringe among Thaws effectsT
 "I did not tell MT. Hummel that"
 Did you tell MT. Hummel that Thaw threatened to kill your
 'I did not"
 She denied that she told Hummel that Thaw had beaten her because she said the statement that a married man had drugged and ravished her was not true and because she would not sign a paper setting forth such story.
 MT. Jerome then offered the witness the photographic copy of the Hummel affidavit. Mrs Thaw said that the photograh reproduced a signature that looked like hers. Mir. Delmas object ed to the use of the photograph until the original was produced or accounted for. Mir. Jerome said he would have to interrupt the examination to call Ab- raham Hummel and his stenographer to identify the photogra phic copy. With the understanding that MT HummeI is to take the stand tomoi row , we agree to an adjournment at this time." said MT. Delmas. District Attorney Jerome said that after the photograph of the affidavit is admitted he would have a few ques- tions to ask Mrs. Thaw and he would then be through with her.
 Adjournment then was taken until tomorrow morning at 1O:30 o'clock.

REAL ESTATE AS
AN INVESTMENT

Oakland Beach real estate is the safest
and fastest money-making investment at
the present day.
Mr. Bennett at Oakland Beach can
show you over 20 cottages that are bring
ing their ownerA2o per cent on their in
vestment. The owner of one cottage now
i'm process of erection tells the writer
that he has had 16 applications to rent
Il the coming season. Ten days ago he
came here with the idea OF building one
cottage for his own use, now he is to
build three.
What makes Oakland Beach real estate
valuable: neutrality-suspicious. TO and
from Providence: electrics every % min
utes during the summer; half hourly I'm
winter. Second-The finest bathing beach
on Narragansett Bay. Third-Land all
high and dry; no malaria.
When you put your money In Oakland
Beach lots it's safe. 1t can't run away.
1t can't be lost. 1t can't be destroyed
Don't put your money In mining or oil
stocks that God only knows the value OF,
but invest IL In real estate where there
is a steady increase In value.
William Jennings Bryan says: Real es-
tate is the best investment for
small savings. More money IS made
from the rise I'm real estate val
bined. To speculate I'm stocks is risky,
and even dangerous. but when you buy
real estate you are buying an inherit
ance."
Andrew Carnegie says: THE wise
young man or wage Garner OF today In
vests his money In real estate"
President Roosevelt says: Every per-
son who invests In wofl-selected real es-
tate no growing sectitn OF a prosperous
community adopts the surest and safest
method OF becoming Independent. for real
estate Is the basis OF all wealth"
Oakland Beach lots arc large, none
smaller than 40xs0, and they are sold for
cash or on small monthly payments-sl0
will start you as a property owner. No
taxes until final payment r. made: no i'm
ttrest for the first year and i'm case OF
sickness we will carry your payments
along.
Mr.. Bennett. the local representative Is
on the grounds every day In the year.
Go out and talk IL over with him. II
does not need braSs band. or the gift
OF pianos, automobiles and diamonds e.
sell lots at Oakland Beach-the lots sell
themselves. IL will be the safest, surest
investment you ever made.
