DRUGGISTS USE :
 |! AT HOME
A Family Bowel Remedy That Is Ap-
 proved by Druggists and Doctors.

Who in all the wide, wide world is bet ter able to judge the real merits of med icine than druggist who sells it or the doctors who prescribe it?
 We believe We are safe in the claim that no advertised family remedy has ever re- ceived such hearty indorsement by the druggists and doctors as Dr. Caldwelis s Syrup Pepsin.
 It is bowel and stomach remedy that gives immediate relief without pain or gripe and at the same time its good ef- fleets become permanent. It aids diges- tion and gives easy natural daily bowel action in the worst old chronic cases or the young babe, the delicate girl or wom- an or the growing boy and it is safe and pleasant to take.
 S. H. Honn, druggist, Metcalf, H., says it Is the laxative in greatest demand and most highly spoken of by his customers T. M. Ferguson. druggist, Vernon, Tex, says it is the laxative in greatest de- mand in his town. Dr. w. Brown, Metro polls H., says: q put pr. Caldwell, Syrup Pepsin ahead of all similar prepa- rations." D. A. Kennedy, druggist, Lex ington H., says: Have sold and recorn- mended it for years. It beats all other remedies" Dr. J. B. Scott, Fayette, Mo-, says: '.The good qualities of Dr. Cald- wells Syrup Pepsin force me to acknowl- edge it's genuine merit" J. c. Young, druggist, Ozark, Mo, says: "I use it in my home and recommend it to my GUS toner's" Dr. l.. E. Covey, Savannah, Tenn. says: 'I get better results iron Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin than any other pepsin I ever used.' Dr. T. Jones, Osgood, Mo-, says: T consider it the best of all laxatves I have ever used.p Physicians and druggists in nearly every city in the United States recommend it.
 All druggists sell 1t at soc and s1.00 per bottle. Pepsin Syrup Co.,, 311 Caldwell Bldg, Monticello, H.. will send free sample to any one who has never used it cnd will agree to give it fair trial.

 TERDAY
Mrs susie Proctor Dropped Dead st the Home of Her Daughter. Mrs
 A. D. MflIs.

Suddenly stricken with heart faii- ure, Mrs. Susie Proctor, an aged resi- dent of Montgomery, was found dead upon the thresh old of the bath room in the home of her daughter Mrs A. B Mills, l20 Clay street, at about 1880 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Proctor, who was ss years old, was apparently in perfect health until an hour before her death when she com piained of feeling badly, and ascend ing the steps leading to the second floor where her room was situated. retired to her apartment
 Mir and Mrs Mills who were in the house at the time felt no alarm con- cerning her, believing that after ( short rest she would recover from her spell of weakness. Only an hour af- ter she had climbed the stairs they heard the sound of falling body and hastened up the stairs discovered the body of the aged woman extended life- less upon the floor at the entrance to the bathroom. Attempts to revive her proved unawailing and 1t is be- adeved that she must have expired before she struck the floor.

BANK IS TO EXPAND
FOURTH NATIONAL QUARTERS
 WILL BE DOUBLED.
The Bank Has Secured An Additional 25 Feet on Cousmerce Street and win Double It's Present
 Quarters.

To afford needed. facilities for it's greatly increased business. The Fourth National Bank will expand it's present quarters on. Commerce Street to take ip the present offices of Chandler and Douglas. and F. NJ. Kohn and Son. This will give the hank. when the necessary and extensive changes are made. twice as much room and space as 1t now has.
 The additional quarters are to the northwest and immediately adjoining the present banking building. The di- viding walla will be taken down and a tetal of 50 feet opening on Com merce Streets will be occupied by the bank. As part of the change, hand some fixtures will be established in horseshoe shape In the new building and there will be a re-arrangement of the offices of the banks officials
 1t was only a short time ago that the Fourth National Bank overhauled its present quarters and put in a new set of costly fixtures. The officers and handsome quarters would suffice for the business of the bank for many years to come. In two. years 1t has been proven that they underestimated the growth of the banks business. This growth has been remarkable. Tho quarters which seemed ample enough two years ago. are now so cramped and confined with tH4 A4CEGGHS0 h4AAAAHH A0ASV &h9 WAt1 the increased number of depositors that expansion is necessary.
 At considerable expense the bank ss- cured the lease on the offices occupied by the real estate firms of Chandler and Douglas and F. M. Kohn and Sons. These firms will secure another central location in the city for their business.
 An architect is now busy drawing the interior plans for the new quarters. The fixtures will be exceptionally handsome. They will be similar to those now in the bank. of copper and Georgia mar ble, which recently was set up at a great expense. The fixtures will be ar- ranged in the form of a horse shoe. the counters and gratings running near the side walls leaving q wide and spa cious lobby for the accommodation of the public. This will also relieve the congestion of space from which the of flee force has suffered. The office of the president and vice president will be moved to the front and the cashier will occupy an oflce near the center of the horse shoe, opening out on the lobby.
 The completed quarters, it Is said will be among the most handsome in the South.
 The front of the bank has recently been ornamented with one of the most tasteful and handsome signs in Ala bama.
