An Appeal 10 The
 Methodists of Aldbon,a

The State Board of Directors, last October authorized the co-operation of Rev. I. W. Mathison with our agent. Rev. T. H. Jones for the collection. of this special fund. These two brethren have experienced much trouble and done what they could. Under the inn proved conditions of the money mark cts the health of the people. and bet ter weather. they will now have less obstruction in their good work.
 Brother Jones never fails to close his years labor with an amount suff cient to defray running expenses No one man fn the state has worked hard CT. or. done more for the cause than he.
 Brother Mathison is A man of gentle. Christian spirit. iowes the work Is a successful solicitor. and has under phansge-- @
 taken this special work of love at q small percentage--postiveiy without riski or, expense to the Orph hanage-oft- er~at a loss to himself. and as he Is now free from all other. duties. he will doubtless prove of great service to Brother Jones and the cause.
 Brothers Jones and Mathison. havinx mapped out their territory We beg for them and for the Alabama Methodlst Orphanase. prompt and liberal re- sponse to their appeals.
 In love and confidence. I remain.

From human .standpoint it was natura1--from the spirituaL 1t was an error. and if eontinued win ba d religious demeanor. se Y
 We have 7s children in the Home: to care for them. we have to provide for s4. including g. colored servants at a cost per capita of $5.0s per, month, or $4s0s00 Total for each month that we keep open. With the1advaifce ih pro, visions and the cost of labor, this ex- penditure Of ss.0s per month appeals to, any, one as economical and a min amun expense thai but few families obtain with all their efforts to 1ive cheap.

 It was ruFnored also yesterday that the Commission. which Is composed of the Governor. the Superintendent of Education and the Auditor. would con { tinue its sittings to hear deiegatiops next week,
 The crowd of delegates that appear ed before the Commission was even larger yesterday than on the day be- fore. The ante-ronm of the Governors suite wask thronged and many stood outside in the Corridors or waited in other offices. The audiences began, ear. ly last night when adjournment was taken until this morning.
 The rumors about the possible ss- lection of sites were the most interest ing feature of the day.
 Tn Etowah County the towns. which sent delegations to the Commission were Atalla, Altoona. walnut Grove and Hoke's Bluff. and 1t was regarded as a probability that Attal1as would be the winning town.
 In Cherokee County 1t was .rumpred Centre would win from Round Noun tain. Cedar Biuff and Gaylesville

There are. two d-fashioned methods of treating chronic dyspepsia, catarrh of the stomach or chronic gastritis.
 First. that which prescribes pepsin. dilute hydrochloric acid and other fer- ments to help the digestive juices :. f-,
 Second, that which seeks to stimulate the glands to greater activity. f9st
 Both have the defect that too often when the treatment stops the beneflt stops and the trouble returns in an aggravated form. The truth of this statement Is all too evident to many who have. tried either treatment.
 tssE Tone Up the St0nnnchs
 The modern method is to tone up the stomach and glands to do their normal work. '
 Every step toward recovery is q step gained not to be lost again. The recov- cry of the appetite. the disappearance of pain, the absence of gas--al1 are steps, on the road to health that those who have tried the tonic treatnient re- member distinctly.
 sDr. williams Pink Pills are tonic. every constituent of which is helpful in building up the. digestive organs and therefore are. the ideal remedy for chronic cases of stomach trouble The success of treatment Is shown by hun dreds of cufessi like the following: ].

 My stomach trouble. which afflicted me for about two years, began with general weakness. | didn't have strength enough to hold up my head and could eat nothing but iactated food for over six months. while t was more than year before I could eat any solid food. had palpitatione of the heart and my breath was short. My left leg and hand gradually be- came numb and I could not use either for long time. At first my hand felt as though it was full of needles when closed. 1t. afterwards there was no feeling at all. I had many sleepless nights and suffered intensely.
