"wHIsKEY" GOLD CURES.
Danger Of using Alcoholic Mixtures
or Coal Tar Tablets.

Laying aside all moral objections
against filing up the system with
whiskey or drugs because one has a
cough or cold, the dangerous physical
effects should be sufficient to keep one
from using these strong medicines.
A thoroughly scientific way to treat
a cough and cold as well as sensible
method is to breathe Hyomei through
the neat pocket inhaler that comes
with every outfit. The first breath Of
it's healing medication relieves the
irritation, and its continued use soon
effects thorough cure.
The best people in Union City al
ways keep Hyomei ia the house dur
ing the winter months, and at the
first symptoms Of a cold or bronchial
troubles, use the remedy, and prevent
serious and lasting illness. The guar
antee that Red Cross Pharmacy give
with every Hyomei outfit should con-
vince you of it's curative powers. A
complete HYomei outfit cost but 81 90,
extra bottles If needed soc, and Red
Cross Pharmacy guarantee to refund
the money if does not give satisfac-

may pay without going IN. I Their
lodges to avoid paying are often
humorous and ingenious"
An amusing story is told Of an
encounter Harry Beresford, who
will be seen here in 1.-THE Woman

Reynolds Opera House. had with a
would-be deadhead in a small town
last season. He was standing in

ing when a man came up to him
and said
s'Are you Mr.. Beresford?" The
reply being in the affirmative, the
fellow said:
do you recognize the profess
sion2'
"Are YOU an actor?" asked Mr..
Beresford seeming little fun.
The fellow said Yes, and be-
ing asked if he was tragedian, said
he was.
Did you ever play Chicago2"
asked Mr.. Beresford.
s'Sure" was the reply.
well, did you ever play Ham
let?"

DARING Man RAN
INTO BLACK MARIA
CHARIOT OF THE LAW MADE THE
TARGET FOR A GATHERING RAM,
BUT NEGRO DRIVER WAS PUT
INSIDE.

OF all the offenses that have been dock
eted against men at the city Jail, the
most daring and reckless, perhaps, was
that which followed the name of Miner
Starr last night. lie was actually charged
with running over the Black Maria"
Now such Is something that never took
place in Birmingham before. 1t is a
known fact that most citizens are afraid
of the inside of this conspicuous wagon,
and the outside is supposed to lncite a
certain feeling of awe, but not so with
the de</idant in this case.
Patrolman Mingea, in the premises of
his charge, declares that the young fell
low deliberately drove into the chariot of
the law, that when warned to turn to one
side he continued to turn his wagon pole
as If determined to ram that old veteran
of a patrol wagon out of existence.
Before Maria's chariot had been turned
over, however, Mr.. Mngea had dismount-
ed, collared the fellow, and out of a
wagon of the Birmingham Railway Light
and Power company the negro was ush-
cred into the very vehicle which he at
tackled. He was given an opportunity Of
beating up the interior with his fists for
Vengeance to his hearts content.
