Advice And a Simple
 PrescritiOn
.ALOcAL DRUGGIST TALKS.
Tells How To Make Right Al
 Home a Splendid Remedy.
For Stomach Trouble. Kidney and Biad- der Weakness and Rheumatism. Said to Cure Almost Any
 Case Without Iniuring
 the Digestive Organs.

The people here do not drink enough water to keep healthy" ex- claimed well-known authority. The numerous cases of stomach trouble, kidney and bladder diseases. and rheumatism are mainly due to the fact that the drinking of water, natures Ereatest medicine. has been neglected. :.
 Stop loadingsyour system with patent medicines and cure-alls; but get on the water wagon. If you are really sick. why. of course. take the proper medi- cines-plain common vegetable treat ment. which will no. shatter the nerves or ruin the stomach"
 When requested for such a prescrip- tion for the cure of rheumatism and kidney trouble the answer was. You must make the kidneys do their work they are the filters of the blood. They must be made to strain out of the blood the waste matter and acids that cause rhcumat;sm the urine must be neutralized so it will no longer be source of irritation to the bladder and, most of all. you must keep those acids from forming in the stomach. This is the cause of stomach trouble and poor digestion. For these condi- tfons l would suggest the following prescription: Fluid Extract Dande- lion, one-haif >ounce: Compound Kar- gon, one ounce: Compound Syrup Sar- saparilla. three ounces. Mix by shak- ing we'll in bottle and take in tea spoonful doses after each meal and at bedtime. but don't forget the water Drink plenty and often.
 This valuable information and sim. pie prescription should be posted up .n each household and used at the first sign of an attack of rheumatism, back ache or urinary trouble, no matter how slight

J. willingham. George c. Miles, George w. Ellis, ". R. Saw yer and Prof. H. s. Haibert. pr. Thomas M. owen was also present.
 After a full discussion of the im- portpnce of associated effort in pre- serving the history of the Baptist de- nomination in the State, a resolution was offered by pr. Crumpton to form a society. This was unanimously adopted. In order to perfect the fur ther details of organization and to make the new society ready for irnme- diate work. 1t was decided that there present, but that Q committee of seven should draft constitution and select ofiicers provided for.

 As is known the year 1908 will wit ness the one hundredth anniversary of the first Baptist church ever organized the old Flint River Church in what Is now Madison county. At the 1907 session of the Alabama State Conven- ton formal and elaborate plans were adopted for the appropriate observance of the centennial. The organization of the Alabama Historical Society Is one of the steps in the work of commemor- ation and through It's activities much interest will be aroused throughout the length and breadth of the state in Baptist history.
 One of the historical students of Alabama has said that the Baptists of Alabama have been pre-eminent in his torical work. He states that the first distinctively historic book involving any part of the annals of Alabama was Hosea Holcombe's History of the Rise and Progress of the Baptists In Alabama" which was issued In Ix40. The Baptists as early as 1886 hsa a weekly newspaper in Alabama. The files of The Southwestern Baptist, so long published by Rev. Samuel Hem derson. and also the files of The Ala bama Baptist are preserved in collec- tions of the Department of Archives and History at the State Capitol.

Unusual Holiday ActiUity in
 Marriage License Marked

As Christmas approaches the negroes of Montgomery County get busy along matrimonial lines as Is evidenced by the large number of marriage licenses that are being issued at the Probate Judges office in the past few days. It is claimed that the bulk of them have not started to come in yet. Yes terday nearly a score of the negroes appeared at the office and secured their license.
 It Is usually the case, and this year will hardly began exception, that just before Christmas it keeps at least one man busy at the Probate once issu- ing marriage licenses.

that are reached by the friends of the institution.
 'swe believe that Montgomery people will be as generous this year as they have been in the past. Cheeks, no matter how small the amount. may be sent to me or any member of the Mont gomery committee. We will be glad to have food or clothing. but much more may be done with the money" Bishop Wilson of the Methodists. speaking in Birmingham the other day of Christmas-giving, expressed these beautiful thoughts:
 "It Is most blessed to give than to receive. You will rememmber that these words were uttered by Saint Paul as a quotation of an utterance of the Lord. We do not find tn ese words in the Gospel, but we must remember that there are many such expressions of the Lord that were not set down in the Gospel. The quotation IS one that has been repeated many times, and to my mind is one of the most beautiful and expressive. although it has been repeated with sneers and often with all self-complacency.
 we remember the story of the wo- man on her way to the temple, how. though she came in great poverty with only few pence which constituted all she hadl she dropped them in the treas- lure box realizing how insignificant they were to the contributions of the rich. and how that woman's mite, was as the stroke of a silver bell which echoed through the centuries because it represented the beauty of the feeling in the heart and the willingness of the soul. Think how great that mite was. and, my friends. they may often be the gifts that are most needed.
 When l speak of the larger values of life. do not measure these gifts by the estimate of the world, but by the circumstances of the gift"

Will you help eighty-s:x motherless and fatherless boys and girls at this happy Christmas season?
 This heart-reaching question will be put tomorrow to the people of Mont gomery by a committee representing the Board of Trustees Of the Orphans
 While ~this institution Is, supported by the Presbyterian synod of Ala bama the committee emphasizes the fact that the Home receives and cares for any orphan in the State of Caucas- ian parentage. Its doors are flung open to Jews. Protestants and Catho- licts. It is a charitable institution in the broadest sense.
 The Montgomery committee was created by the congregation of the First Presb yterian Church. It consists of R. M Henderson, Dr. C. G. Laslie, Brame Hood, Thomas w. Martin. w. A. Saffold and Victor H. Hanson. This comrNiff w.lI make hurried canvass of the down town district tomorrow. Money would be most acceptable, but donations of clothing, food or delica- cies will be thankfully received. The purpose Is to make the hearts of the little ones happy.
 MT. Hanson, who is the resident member of the Board of Trustees, said last night that the people of Mont gomery had Invariably done their part for the Taliadega orphans at the holi- day season, but it was hoped that this year they would do more.
 rThis cause" said Mr. Hanson. "is especially one that tappeals to the heart. They are gentle Shiidren at the Talla- deaa Home. They d6 not make per- sofnal appeal, but they expect Santa Claus because Santa Claus always vis- its the Home. Just how liberal Santa Claus will be to them this year de-

 Mir Barnes was in a runaway acci- dent six weeks ago. The tongue of his buggy became detached and he was thrown violently to the ground.

For five weeks he was in bed and he underwent several operations. His friends will be pleased to learn that while the effects of the accident at one time promised to be quite serious. Mir.

FOR THE TEACHERS

Association WHl Be Entertained fu April, When Teachers From All Over Alabama, Will
 Be Present.

That the next annual meeting of the Alabama Educational Association which will be held in Montgomery at Easter time, will be the greatest event in the history of the organization. is evidenced by the fact that already To- cal men have taken the matter in hand. Chairmen of the committees have been named and two of the com mitteernans have been filled and these people will begin work immediately af- ter Christmas in preparing for the coming of the Alabama educators.
 The following chairnen will serve:
 Finance--Dr. B. J. Baldwin.
 Halls-E. R. Barnes.
 Music--Miss Alice Sachs.
 Press--A. c. Mckenzie.
 Information--G. Grosvenor Dave.
 The following gentlemen will serve with Dr. Baldwin: W. F. vandiver I. c. Haas. A. W. LeBron. Frank r. Kohn, c. F. Moritz.
 All other committees except the Press Committee are yet incomplete,
 Mir. Mckenzie will be assisted by Miss Nimmo Greene and R. Bliss Edgar.
 While all of these committeeman will have plenty of work to do. those in charge of information will have to have their work planned early. It has been arranged to have 8 general bureau of information at the Commer- Cldl SluD TOOi1S WHeEc DdWe VIII have the matter under his direct care. He will also be at the Union Station during the time when the strangers are arriving. There he will be assist ed by about twenty school boys who will show the teachers to their rooms and will also give out necessary infor- mation on everything.
 This meeting will doubtless be a great thing for Montgomery as 1t will bring teachers from all parts of the State here. As nearly every teacher in Alabama Is a member of the organ ization it Is expected that there will be several hundred visitors here during the meeting. With all of these com mittees that have been appointed the strangers will be we'll taken care of and they will all have a good word for Montgomery when they get back home. The meeting will be advertised generally over the State before it is held and during its progress 1t will at- tract the attention of educators over the South.
