No Branch of Tobacco Industry Is Growing so Enormously as Cigarettes.

Nothing indexes the prosperity of a nation more accurately than the tobacco industry, especially with respect to cigars and cigarettes. During the past eight years the cigar output has been more than doubled In this country, the sales for the fiscal year being SOTO, ,649, as compared with 4063. .169.097 for 1898. Ad- ditonal United States internal revenue reports just rendered show an increased sale of 459,000.000 cigarettes for 1906 over the preceding year.
 Great as the popularity of cigarettes has grown, however, there is every evil dence that they will have even greater supremacy during the current year. Turk ish cigarettes in particular show steady growth in public favor.
 Analyses have proved that Turkish or Oriental tobaccos are not only soothing but distinctly beneficial to the nerves. Following this interesting announcement of the Paris faculty of medicine, lead ing New York jurist declared the other day that the best cigarettes, such as Murads, Helmars or Deities, for instance, were by no means injurious in themselves to either adults or minors. so far as he had observed. As the uses, as well ss abuses. of tobacco are more thoroughly appreciated, the cigarette appears to be coming in for a sQuarer deal 4.

AFTER FOUR YEARS
 REGAINS HEARING
Remarkable Story Related to Newspaper Man by MT A. J.
 Stewart of North Birmingham

For the past three weeks much has been heard and read of Col. Frank A. Dil- lingham and his wonderful Plant Julee Remedies. While Colonel Dillingham; has centered his own unique way of adVer- tiscing in the towns of Ensley, Bessemer and North Birmingham, where the dem onstrations have been given nightly on his platforms, and have set the people of those districts wild with excitement, yet the people of Birmingham proper are be- ginning to turn their attention to these famous preparations as is evidenced by the large number of calls that are being made for them at the local druggists.
 During the time Colonel Dillingham; and assistants have been introducing his med icines In Ensley, Bessemer and North Blr- ningham many wonderful cures have been made and daily crowds of people are to be seen going in Colonel Dillins- hams quarters in those districts, singing the praises of Plant Juice and volun- tarily offering their testimonials as to its worth.
 One of the most wonderful cures yet effected in this district took place last Saturday night in North Birmingham, when A. J. Stewart, an employe of the American Cast Iron Pipe company, resid- ing at 2919 Twenty-ffth street, North Bir- mingham, whe has been almost tetally deaf in both ears for the past four years, had his hearing almost absolutely restored by one application of Plant Juice lini- ment. But perhaps it Is best to relate the incident as told to representative of the press by MT. Stewart himself.
 When seen at his home Monday even- ing, surrounded by all the members of his family, he said: "I cannot say too much for Colonel Dillingham; and his wonderful preparation. Saturday night I attended the performance given fin front of the Madison pharmacy and when the invitation for anyone suffering from par tial deafness, stiff joints, sprains and rheumatism to ascend the platform and secure relief, I was among those who went up. The gentleman on the platform spoke to me but I could not understand him until he talked very loud. As soon as he had ascertained my trouble, that of deafness in both ears, he commenced to work on me- first applying the Plant Juice Liniment around the base of my eals, which caused a cracking sound in my ears, and finally working on the insides. In few moments I began to hear what was going on about me, something l had been unable to do ever since my trouble came on me, and I could hear the lec- turer when he addressed me In a low tone of voice.
 Asked how his trouble came about, MT Stewart said: -Four years ago l was taken with a bad case of grippe, which left me with a bad catarrhal affection in the head. I would have painful roarings in the head and could not hear out of

AS TO RHEUMATISM.


 welldefned case of rheumatism is generally recognized by medical men as one of the most difficult problems with which they have to deal. It has been found, however, by the experience of able physicians that much benefit results from putting the sufferer from rheumatism un- der the following treatment: Before each meal there Is administered an anti-rheu- matlc table composed of PIE grains Sodium Bi-Carbonate, 3 grains Salicylic Acid and 1 mnim Wine of Colchcum. This is to be followed immediately by a glass of water. After each meal the patient is given tablespoonful of a preparation of h oz Fluid Extract of Buchu. 1 dram Fluid Extract of Horse Kettle. 1 oz Amet Cordial A oz. Fluid Extract of Liverwort and IA ozs. water The treatment, con- tlnued for a month. is said to give most gratifying results. even in unusually stub born cases The prescriptions given above any good druggist can compound.

Ensrey Property Shows Advance.

R. T. Mcleod, prominent real estate man, today purchased from the Jemison Real Estate and Insurance company two lots on the corner of Ensley and Jeffer- son avenues, Ensley Highlands, paying therefor $25 per front foot, total of $25OO.
 7 This is the largest price ever paid for property in that section of the city and shows the great increase in value since Ensley Highlands was put on the mar ket year ago by the Jemison Real Estate and Insurance company. The price paid sounds more like Birming- ham than Ensley.
 Ensley Highlands is one of the most beautiful residence sections of the city, and MT. Mcleod will add to it's desira- bility in this respect by erecting in the near future handsome residence on the lots purchased by him today.
