BALLOON RACES FOR FAIR;
 AERIAL SPORT IA VING DA !

Birmingham Is in line for national ballooning contest to be held next fall if the plans of a number of enterprise ing local men do not miscarry.
 Aeronautics is the sport which the leading wealthy sportsmen of the world have adopted as the new diver sion and has supplanted the automobile as fad among those who are always ready to take up any sport that savers of variety or novelty.
 William H. Pickens, the personal representative of Charles Andrew Coey, the Chicago millionaire automobiles and all round sportsman, is in the city to place the formation of an aero club here upon a substantial basis. MT. Coey is the president of the Aeronautique of Chicago and the chief executive of the Federation of American Aero clubs, the national or ganization which governs the sport in America.

SOUTHERN R'Y TAKES OFF
 ANOTHER POPULAR TRAIN

of the Steel corporation have just made a visit to Birmingham which will mean marvels in the way of developments, and in spite of all this the Southern cuts of this prosperous North Alabama feeder.
 The Sheffield train was conceded to be one of the best feeders to Birmingham that have been inaugurated. It put North Alabama points in close touch with Bir- mngham, and was in many other ways desirable to the business interests of the city It was cut off without warning to anyone and the diseontinuance is made III spite of the unanimous protest against the action made by the Birmingham Com mercial club at it's meeting last Friday.
 It was pointed out yesterday that the road might have entered upon this re- trenchment policy in the places where the people would feel it most, and that such action may be taken advlsedly. If this is not the case, however it. is hoped that the Southern can be induced to respond to the appeals of the business interests of the community and speedily restore this Sheffield train.

PARK BELONGS TO PEOPLE

w. D. Nesbitt, president of the Birming- ham Athletic Playground association, whose energy has resulted in great de- gree in the organization of this important body, is an enthusiastic worker for the development of Magnolia park into an athletic park for the children.
 Everybody should understand" he said, that the parks are for the bene- fit of the citizens of the city. They are not bought by these citizens to be used only for the benefit of the people living near by, but are for the community at large
 The charge that cursing and swearing would be fearful is preposterous. Is not the child far more apt to adopt these habits when he has to seek dirty alleys and crowded streets among the rough elements for his pleasure? Cursing is in violation of the ordinances of the city and wherever it exists is unlawful.
 The people who are opposing this im- provement are those of the well-to-do class, who have all necessary arrange ments for the pleasure of their own chill dren and they lose sight of the needs of tie majority whose parents are poor and who are left no place but the alleys and streets It seems to me that this side of the question ought to be looked at in the right light. and if we wish to raise set of strong. manly boys with am- bitfon and ability these natural ad- vantages must be made us of
 We had the same opponents to the development of East Side, but when it was fully understood they withdrew in favor of our plans.
 ''ln other cities where these parks are being developed, during the past financial stress, it has been remarked that in cutting down the budget of expenses the park appropriations are the last things touched. In Boston, which is doing great things along this line, everything else was cut way down, but the park appropri- ation did not suffer in the least.
 T do not think people ought to take selfish view of this matter. It k 6 question Of the rights of the citizens and I hope that by June the work or Magnolia park will be completed. We all ready have permission to do the work and if the Council does not sustain the objections it will be pushed right ahead.

Birmingham club entering a balloon ill the Windy City contest slated for July 4. An experienced pilot would be brought here for the purpose of test ing and handling the craft and would sail the huge bag in company with some Birmingham man to be selected from among the club members.
 It is conceded that a balloon chris tened "Clty of Birmingham" would prove big advertisement for this city if entered in the Chicago race, but 1t is from another standpoint that inter est is centering among the local men. President Coey has authorized MT. <oickens to promise Birmingham that If an active club is formed here and &. balloon entered in the Chicago meet the contest board of the Fedora tion will sanction a date for a big con test here in October or November and guarantee the entries of some of the most famed aeronautic sportsmen of the oay. MT. Pickens has talked with many prominent men, all of whom favor the plan suggested.

Beginning today il is announced by the Southern railway that the North Alabama train between Birmingham and Sheffield by way of Parrish will be discontinued. Along with this announcement comes one from Washington that the Southern is cutting off trains in every direction, some of the latest being Nos. sS and S4 and No south from Washington.
 The question is being asked in Bir- mingham. Is the Southern springing some sort of puzzle on the people of this com munity2 It Is pointed out that Birming- ham has held it's own during the recent depression better than almost any other city in the country; that business has been remarkably good under the circun- stances: that the Southern is the only railway entering Birmingham that has annulled trains; that not even the Sea- board Air Line, which is in the hands of receivers, has seen fit to cut off trains running out of Birmingham; that officials

DIDN'T KNOW That Coffee Was Causing Her Trouble.

So common is the use of coffee as beverage, many do not know that 1t is the cause of many obscure ails which are often attributed to other things
 The easiest way to find out for oneself is to quit the coffee for @ while, at least, and note results. A Virginia lady found out in this way. and also learned of 0 new beverage that is wholesome as well as pleasant to drink She writes:
 'T am 40 years old and all my life up to year and half ago. 1 had been n coffee thinker. About ten years ago. I had dyspepsia o-bad that often the coffee 1 drank would sour on my stomach and l could not retain 1t.
 ''SrSere headaches and heart weakness made me feel sometimes as though Iwere about to die. After drinking cup or two of hot coffee. not knowing 1t was harm ful, my heart would go like clock with out pendulum. At other times 1t would almost stop and l was so nervous l did not like to he alone.
 If took a walk for exercise, as soon as 1 was out of sight of the house I'd feel as if l was sinking and this would frighten me terribly. My limbs would utterly refuse to support me, and the pity of it all was, l did not know that coffee was causing the trouble.
 Reading in the papers that many per sons were relieved of such ailments by leaving off coffee and drinking Postum, l bog my husband to bring home a package We made it according to directions and 1 liked the first cup It's rich snappy favour was delicious.
