Trickinu a jeNeIer.

A fashionably dressed woman once
alighted from a brougham in west
London and stepped into hairdress-
er's shop. She informed the barber
that she had son who was of IN
sound mind and that the doctor had
ordered his head to be shaved.
Her son, she said, was violent, and
she instructed the barber to get Il
couple of assistants and seize him
when he was brought round, to tie him
in chair and shave his head in spite
of anything he might say. The bar
Der did not relish the job, but an adj
vance fee of guinea tempted him,
and he fell.
Then the lady drove to the jewel
er's, bought some expensive rings and
jewelry and expressed surprise at hav-
ing left her purse at home. She Of
fered to drive the jeweler home with
her, together with the jewels, and pay
him at her residence.
On arriving once more at the bar
ber'S the two alighted, and the unfor-
tunate jeweler at sign from the lady
was seized and bound to a chair. and
in spite of his angry yells and expos
tulations his head was shaved. Mean
while the lady drove off with 600
worth Of gems and was never heard of
again.-LondOn Mail.

Waltz Is Not Modern.


Many people labor under the I'M
preston that the waltz is of modern
origin, owing to the fact that it was
comparatively unknown in America or
in England until the early part Of the
nineteenth century. But it was brought
originally from Provence to the court
of Henry II. Of France, at Fontaine-
bleau, by the Comte de Saulte. Mary,
queen of Scots, imported it into Scot
land, for history records her as hav-
ing incurred the bitter wrath and fierce
denunciation of John Knox and of 9th
err divines of the ''land of cakes for
dancing it on one memorable occasion
at the palace of Hollywood. Toward
the end of the seventeenth century it
was danced throughout southern Ger
many and Austria, the celebrated waltz
tune and popular song, 20, Du Lieber
Augustin," dating from 1910. But, as
already stated, it was not until the first
two decades of the nineteenth century
that it made it's first appearance in
England and the United States, when
it was alternately denounced and laud-
ed by the poets of the epoch.

A Doc Story.

A Columbus man who likes to hunt
quail, who is handy with the gun and
has a fine bird dog whose work as o
retriever is remarkable loaned him to
a friend who was only an amateur al
the business. About the middle of the
forenoon of the first day the dog re-
turned to his masters home. The lat
ter not knowing what had happened
took his gun in the afternoon to try
the dog. He worked all right, and a
number of birds were secured. The
next day he met the friend who had
borrowed the dog. What is the mat
ter with that dog?" he asked. eve
got up a covey of quail and shot at
them, but missed. We afterward got
up a number of the scattered birds
and took a dozen shots or more, but
got nothing, and the dog put his tail
between his legs and struck across the
fields in the direction of his home"
1t is evident that the dog, disguised
at the poor shooting, decided that the
men with the guns were not In his
class and decided to cut it out.-Co-
lumbus co. Dispatch.

Gamblinq.

The supreme objection to gambling
in all its forms, whether in sport or
in speculative business, is that it works
harm and loss to society AS soon as
any practice or conduct is found to be
socially hurtful it thereby becomes
wrong whatever men may have
thought of it before. Does not all NOR
ality rise to consciousness through the
fact of social advantage or injury
Now the long and costly experience of
mankind bears uniform testimony
against gambling till at last the YER
dict of civilization has become as near
ly unanimous as human Judgment can
be that it is an intOlerable nuisance.
1t is dangerous or unsoc:al form of
excitement 1t hurts character, demon
Allies industry, breeds quarrels, tempts
men to self destruction, and it works
special injustice to women and chill
dren. We may not know precisely why
morphine preys upon the nervous sys-
tenn and has to be labeled poisonous.
The fact is the main consideration.

HIS COURSE
IN LOVE.
By LULU JOHNSON.
Copyright, 1907, by N. n. Cunningham.

On the whole Treqdway thought il
marry Marion Hitesman. He was pos
seSSed of an income Of half q million Il
year. the income from his mothers
estate, and when his father died
well, it required the services of two
men to keep track Of the Treadway in
yestnents.
Marion was a dainty little country
woman. but she would need lot OF
social training, of course. Perhaps Z
year in finishing school might be
good thing to fit her for the place in
society she was destined to fill. It
might be a bother to wait a year be-
fore marriage, though, SO on second
thoughts perhaps a social secretary
would be a better plan. Treadway de
cided upon the social secretary as the
lesser of two necessary evils.
Marion Hitesman was only little
country girl, the belle of Wichfield, a
village of few thousand persons.
Treadway had been forced to stop
over there for repairs to his automo-
bile. and before these were made he
had seen Marion. After that the auto
mobile was called upon only for little
trips to nearby points of interest. and
Treadway paid his easy going court to
the girl
Perkins. his fathers lawyer, made
his summer home in Wichfield, and the
introduction was easily accomplished,
but Treadway found courtship accord
ing to Wichfield notions rather compli-
Gated. In town he would have left a
standing order with the florist and
cOnfectioner. There would have been
an occasional motor excursion and
finally proposal of marriage in the
conservatory at some ones dance and
a note in the society columns of the
papers.
Here it was all different, and, while
he enjoyed the novelty of it. he found
it rather awkward at times. In town
mammas with maria geable daughters
were willing to do more than half the
courtship for him. Here he found him

who clerked in Luscombs grocery.
Even this fact did not serve to warn
him, however. and his declaration was
entirely characteristic. The two were
returning from ride in the country.
A score of couples had gone out to the
home of farmer host. and the road
was dotted with buggies. At Marion's
command Treadway had not thrown
on speed to outstrip the others. as he
usually did, and the car rolled along
as quietly as though it were under the
observation of a string of traffic police.

The gridiron pattern upon which
Philadelphia was laid out was the
work of Thomas Holme, the surveyor
general of Pennsylvania. The design
however, was PENIS own. Little

scendants still live in the city and bear
his name, but it is said that all of his

MAYOR REMINISCENT
 ON ACCOUNT OF PICNIC

Mayor W. M Teague has returned to Montgomery from Wetumpka where he Attended the annual reunion of the Wetumpka Light Guards. in which company he served during the Civil War. He was delighted with the success of the affair, and stated that the crowd in attendance, approxirnated l. 500 people, many of whom were veterans of the war.
 Veterans from the counties of Autauga, Coosa, Fillmore and Mont gomery contributed to the attendance and a pleasant feature of the gather ing was the renewal of friendships contracted many years ago.
 The exercises, consisting of speak ing and singing, were greatly enjoyed The commodious auditorium of the agricultural school was utilized for seating the large crowd, and the ar engagement made for the convenience of the audience was the subject of universal praise.
 The duties of toastmaster were pleasingly carried out by F. L. Tate. a prominent young lawyer of Wetumpka, who in fitting words introduced the speakers of the day. Among those who delivered addresses were General J. w. A. Sanford and J. Thomas Heflin.
 From the standpoint of many, the feature of the reunion was the grand barbecue. There was everything to eat and the meats were prepared in true "old- time" country style. Mayor Teague spoke with reminiscent joy of the good things which were obtained during that ceremony.

Negro is on Trial fin a Concealed Weapon Case-Five Cases
 Were Heard Yester-

In the case of Jim Birdsong on trial in the City court on the charge of carrying concealed pistols, attorneys for the defense demurred on the ground that the offense was committed before the Sam Will John act went into ef- feet on July 1. and the charge upon which his client was beign tried could not therefore hold, as the old law has been since superseded. At late hour yesterday afternoon attorneys were still arguing the matter.
 But five cases occupied the atten- ton of the city court in its session yes terday morning and afternoon. All of the cases to be tried were against negroes. and with the exception of the first case and the case which the jury had not taken yesterday afternoon at 6 o'clock. all of the negroes were con victed as charged
 The first case to be heard was that of Anna Barnett, charged with the theft of several rings from Mrs. Gay, After the hearing of all evidence the iury. brought in a verdict of not guilty Jack Benjamin charged with the theft of clothing from a locker of a railroad man in the yards of north Montgomery was found guilty as charged.
 Warren Burley charged with the theft of a revolver wae5 deemed guilty by the jury in the case. B. L. Sprinks for carrying concealed pistols pleaded guilty to the charge and was fined $50 by the court

 FURTHER STATES GROWTH

In fuPtherance of the 100000 In 1s1s movement for Alabama, Captain A q. Forbes, President of the Commercial Club, has sent out circular letters to all of the prominent business men of Alabama emphasizing its importance and urging It's ease of attainment. Contributions are asked for that tho preliminary work of the plan may be begun.
 The principal work of getting the movement well under way will be con- ducted by correspondence. but as soon as results justify state meetings will be called and the real business of or ganization commenced. It is believed that with the immense resources of Alabama and the increasing confidence of investors in the stability and con servatism of Southern institutions there Is no reason why the population of the State in 1919 may not reach the figures named. whether or not that result be achieved. the movement cannot but be of vast benefit to Alabama
