REMAINS THE SAME.
Well Brewed Postum Always PaIata
BILE,

The flavor of Postum, when boiled
according to directions, is always the
same-mild, distinctive, and palatable.
It contains no harmful substance like
caffeine, the drug in coffee, and hence
may be used with benefit at all times
believing that coffee was the cause
of my torpid liver, sick headaches and
misery in many ways" writes an Ind.
lady, 81 quit and bought a package Of
Postum about year ago.
sMy husband and have been so we'll
plased that we have continued to drink
Postum ever since. We like the taste of
Postum better than coffee, as it has
always the same pleasant flavor, while
coffee changes it's taste with about ev-
cry new combination or blend.
'"Since using Postum have had no
more attacks of gall collie, the heavi-
ness has left my chest, and the old,
common, every day headache is thing
unknown"
tThere's a Reason"
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Creek, Mich. Read THE Road to Well
ville," in pkgs.
Ever read the above letter? a new
one appears from time to time. They
are genuine, true and full Of humsn
interest.

Sons of Veterans Organize.

A local camp of the Sons of Confederate Veterans was organized tonight at the Presbyterian hall. The meeting was large and enthusiastic, the new camp starting under the most favorable circumstances. Mayor D. F. Sugg was made temporary chairman and briefly stated the purpose of the meeting. The report of the mem bership committee was received, showing nearly 100 applications for membership. J. A. Rountree of Birmingham, command ant of Camp Clayton, was called upon. He spoke on the general principles of the organization and outlined the various duties and requirements of the members. He spoke feelngly of the duties the sons of veterans owed to the old heroes who wore the gray, and that as they were rapidly passing away it devolved on the younger generation to perpetuate the sa- cred memories of the lost cause. He was given close attention, and was frequently and liberally applauded At the con- clusion of MT. Rountrees speech the camp was formally organized, and an election of officers was held as follows:
 Commandant, R. l.. Daniels.
 First lieutenant, w. T. Cochran.
 Second lieutenant Lee White.
 Adiutant, John Byrum

 Quartermaster, George Reese.
 Chaplain, R. A. Baker
 Treasurer, D. F. Sugg.
 Color sergeant, Tom Reese
 Librarian, J. c. Bryant.
 Historian, D. J. Hummer.
 Each newly elected officer was called upon and each responded and pledged earnest support to the camp. MT. Roun- tree requested the new camp to appoint auxiliary committees to assist Camp Clay ton in entertaining the veterans in June and also asked that four members of the camp be named to serve on the staff of one of the generals. D. F. Sugg, John Byrum and D. J. Hummer were appoint ed a committee on bylaws and consti- tuition. The camp will meet early next week and also name sponsor. The vet erans and Daughters of the Confectionery were present in large numbers. During the evening Prof. c. J. Thaxton enter tained the meeting with number of war songs, played with much spirit on the violin, and as usual 'Dixie" brought down the house. Nothing could exceed the qualification of the old soldiers at the splendid showing made by the sons. At the conclusion refreshments and fruits were served.
