Eat sufficient amount of good, wholesome food every day Eat what the appetite calls for, be- cause that is what the health and strength of the body require.
 Then don't worry about indigestion or dyspepsia; but take Kodol occasonally-at the times when you need it. and your food will be digested com pletely but don't diet and don't deny yourself the food you like, for dieting is unnecessary; 1t is wrong to be hungry.
 Food is fuel for the body. It furnishes blood, bone, health and strength but 1t must be digested first, and you not going to be healthy or strong as long as your stomach fails to do its work.
 Don't fear to eat the food you like for you know the body requires variety of 1t and that which you don't eat may be the very thing you need to supply the necessary strength for your body
 We say eat what you want and let Kodol digest it.
 Nor do you have to take Kodol all the time; you wouldn't want to have to take it all the time Take it just when you need it, and in that way ale low 1t to help the stomach to get strong and well.
 But when you do eat what you want and what you like best be that all the food is digested you must be that the stomach is able to digest it,
 Else that portion of the food, which remains in the stomach undigested, irritates the stomach in- ing, and that is what causes pain. Then again un- digested food ferments in the stomach and that Is what causes sour risings, gas and belching.

These are the things you have to get rid of but the body is not strengthening the stomach. Yet you do weaken the body when you deny yourself some article of food you find does not agree with you.
 And here is where Kodol is so effective. It di. gests what you eat and does 1t completely. It en- ables you to eat just what you like and just what your appetite demands.
 Kodol doesn't simply digest certain kinds of food it di9ests every kind of food. It acts Nature acts and it assists Nature in assmilatng the food it helps Nature get out of the food what there is in it--strength, blood, bone, muscle and life.
 Kodol is for you. Kodol is for anyone and every. one who needs 1t and we want you to try 1t now and be convinced that you can eat just what you like if you will only let Kodol digest for time that which you do eat.

Hon. P. H. Pitts, Probate Judge of Dallas County. returned to his home in Selma last night after spending the past two months in Minnesota, Michi- gan and Indiana. Judge Pitts was ac- conpan nied home by his wife and two daughters who have also been spend ing the past two months in the north.
 To his many friends toady Judge Pitts talked entertainingly on the presi. dential campaign in the three states In which he has been spending the past two months. He believed that there is not the least doubt but that Mir. Bryan will carry Minnesota. Michigan and Indiana in the November elec- ton, and that the Nebraskan will be elected president.
 Mir. Pitts said that everyone in the north was talking of William Jennings Bryan and that all thought he was the most logical man for the position. That the name of Taft was seldom mentioned. and the people did not be- lieve that he had any chance of being elected.

YN,I, winter in selma.

WLE WhWtGE tm 5otusus
 Mir W. L. Ward. IT,, President of the Selma Driving Association, this morning received a letter from the well-known horseman, Roy Miller. ask ing for quarters for his stable during the coming winter at the Selma Driv- ing Park. Mir. Miller stated that if quarters could be secured that he would bring to Selma about eighteen or twenty horses to be trained during the cold months.
 When Mir. Miller had charge of the Plant stable of trotters and pacers sew erai years ago. he spent two or three winters at the Selma Driving Park. and as he has gone back into the rac- ing business again he wants to come to Selma this winter. MT. Ward has replied to Mir. Miller's letter and has assigned him favorable quarters for his stable.
 It is expected that there will be large number of trotters and pacers at the Selma track this winter and 1t is also probable that Lon McDonald will again return to Selma with his stable. Mir. Mcdonald said that he would come back to Selma if some needed work was done upon the Selma track and this work will be commenced within the next week or two and the track will be put in first class conii- ton.

tseneraily Believed that Western of Alabama HaIlroad Has Acquired Control Of Electric Cars---Noth-

Advertiser Bureau,
 Selma. Sept. 16. There was a weii-grounded report current on the streets today that the Selma street and Suburban Railway had been taken over or absorbed by the Atlanta and West Point Route and the Western Railway of Alabama. While this report Is generally believed to be true. no papers of transfer have been filed. nor will any who Is in posi- ton to know give out any informa- ton in regard to the rumor.
 semblance of truth Is given to the rumor by recent visits to Selma of President c. A. Wickersham of the Western Railway of Alabama. who has or these visits been in close con sultation with Hon. A. D. Pitts, conrl- sell for Col. F. M. Abbott. who Is President of the Selma Street and su- burban Railway. In connection with this rurior. it Is also stated that the Louisville and Nashville Is the road which has absorbed the street railway line in Selma.
 While 1t is generally believed that there Is considerable truth in the ru- mors o fthe transfer of the street car system to one of the two railroads, there is nothing definite known of tho transaction.

who are compelled to labor until late
hour Saturday night to enable church
people to obtain their supplies and
necessities, are frequently compelled
to retire without shave, depending
on the chance of getting scrape Sun
day morning. Is not a shave as much
a necessity as lemon to themY
One more question. How is it pos
sible that a moment of time can be
declared or held to be more sacred
than anotherY If a god made time
lis it not all sacredY If it is wrong to
buy shave on that division of time
known as Sunday would it not also be
wrong on Monday. If man may buy
and eat lemons on Sunday in full fear
of the Lord, may he not also, enter
tanning the same degree OF fear, pur-
chase a shave for the sake of cleanli-
ness and comforts Do they not argue
that cleanliness is next to goodness?
If it be true in whole or in part are
not the very Christianlike judges OF
the Missouri bench straining at a gnat
ana swallowing Noah's ark when they
rule against the Sunday shave.
What makes the matter worse, so far
as the constitutional liberties of the
people are concerned, is that both OF
the courts named declare, with a show
of judicial dignity and bearing, that
the people of Missouri are religious
in their inspiration" and they describe
the Sunday laws as the expression OF
a "god-fearing Christian people who
regard the Sabbath as holy day"
Here is the principal bone OF con-
tention. 1t is an admission that the
Sunday laws are a purely Christian
institution, enacted as favoring that
form of religion and against the enact
ment of any law favoring any system
of religious worship or belief. Under
such an opinion we are prone to ask
if the ecclesiastics and those legisla-
tors who voted for the enactment OF
these laws, would not give an open,
honest and candid explanation OF what
they meant by them. The rule in the
construction of any law is to arrive,
as near as possible, at the legislative
intent, and if the intent of the Sunday
law enactments can be ascertained, 1T
will be found to consist of desire to
force Christian observances upon all
the people irrespective of their desires,
their wants and religious beliefs Our
long familiarity with the very people
who advocated and sought the enact
ment of these Sundays laws, a famili-
arity that extends to their rules of
thought and conduct, would suffice to
convince us that the Appellate decision
in regard to the lemon is fatal to the
Blue-grass blade. [volume] (Lexington, Ky.) 188?-19??, 1908-01-26

some of them, declined to shave or
trim their hair. Some OF them refused
to take bath. The children of Israel,
for forty years. Of course they were
in the desert and fashionable tailor
shops had been left behind them in the
land of Pharaoh. Necessity had forced
them, if the account be true, to forego
a change of raiment. In Elisha's case
he did not need hair cut for he had
none that could have stood the opera
ton. In some instances custom con-
trolled the ha bits OF the ancients and
others were simply forced to certain
actions through sheer necessity.
Now comes Missouri, the show me"
state. But Missouri not only asks to be
shown. 1t is also willing to show, but
its judiciary g making sorry show "
of itself. 1t is showing a peculiar
inconsistency in its rulings anent the
Sunday laws. One Missouri Court has
ruled that lemon is sufficient ne
cessity to be permitted to be sold on
Sunday and another Missouri Court
has ruled that shave is not a neces-
sity on Sunday. In this respect the
lemon is placed above the shave but
there are doubtless large number Oh
the male inhabitants of st. Louis who
would be willing to trade off their
legal or statutory rights in lemon for
the privilege of a shave on the So
called Sabbath day. In other words
the Missouri Court Of Appeals has held
that shave not being necessity or
a charity, cannot be purchased on Sun
day without violating the Sunday law.
On the other hand the Supreme Court
of Missouri has held that lemon is a
necessity both as a medicine and
food, and that it's sale on Sunday would
be lawful proceeding.
Take a male person with a bad case
of katzenjammer secured from sundry
places on Saturday night, lemon
might be deemed blessing to him on
Sunday morning. Many housewife
might desire lemon as a iavorlng
fluid to make the luscious pie, but in
neither case is it such a dire neces-
sity as to rank it of prior Importance
to shave. The inability to secure the
latter might change the course OF the
great worlds destiny. No blushing
maid would rush to greet counting
swain with several days growth on his
chin and the deacon might be com

ORTHODOX LEMONS FOR
MISSOURI.

Missouri Judiciary merely granted
them lemon.
In these days of slang it is recOg
nized that the receipt OF lemon i'm
plies that the recipient thereof has got
it in the neck. Politicians dodge the
lemon with as much alacrity as the
yellow journal chases divorce
scandal.
But to imagine, however, that as far
as the Immaculate Conception is con
cerned, the whole plan OF orthodox
Christian salvation, with its oddities
and cruelties, the future veal or woe
in the hierarchy to come Of the ortho-
doX Missourians is now made depend
ent on judicial decision over the right
to purchase a lemon on Sunday. This
much and this only will the Missouri
courts in their great wisdom allow.
Purchasing lemons is an act. like Abel 5
offering Of lamb, pleasing unto the
Lord, but to buy shave on Sunday Is
an objectionable sin and those de-
tected in so doing will call upon them
selves the wrath Of the Most High
and bring down a whirlwind OF di-
vine disfavor.
Get shave and be damned
Only buy a lemon and you are
washed in the blood of the lamb.
The Christian reformer insists that
we must live by the law or change it
and this is used in the current Sunday
closing campaigns with a great deal OF
force.
In the case of an obnoxious law, the
Blade would insist that the better plan
would be to seek it's repeal, first, and
failing in that, refuse to obey it and by
bringing it in contempt by the public,
its repeal is sure to follow, for no law
can boast any inherent virtue or power
touching it's enforcement unless public
opinion is behind it.
All Sunday laws are essentially re-
igious laws and their enactment was In
violation of the constitutional rights
and liberties of the people. That they
are religious laws is admitted by the
Missouri court, and yet, its own de-
cision concerning the illegality OF buy
ing shave and the legality OF buying
a lemon, on Sunday, destroys its own
argument.

tan life by custom, said to be mon
