Makes a Wonderful Discovery.
IT 1 COSTS YOU .NoTHINe.

Charles B. James, the eminent scientist whose reputation is international has made wonderful discovery Words can not describe the happiness 1t will bring to those unfortunates, who, during the night, toss, twist and turn in their beds, and have restless, sleepless nights, for insom- mia Is sapping them of their vitality and wrecking their nervous system, for even if they doze off, it is only for a short pe- riod of restless sleep, and then they arise in the morning more worn than when they retired, until at last the bed seems to them a hideous place of torture.
 This scientific discovery costs you nothing, and 1t changes restless night into restful, health-giving slumber Through scientific researches, James has perfected a harmless compound of celery, hops and lettuce which brings about the desired results, for they are scientifically blended no narcotics-therefore create no habit, and are absolutely harmless. The after effects, instead of being harmful are bene- ficial to the entire system; for 1t produces energy, vigor and force. While it calms, it also tones the nervous system, and it is surprising how quickly ftp reduces rest full soothing, refreshing slunber.
 James, in his generosity and wish to place this wonderful compound of bis in the hands of all suffering from insomnia
 
 your requestt, send you a bottle absolute ly free. James stands at the head of the James Sanatorium of Memphis, Tenn, the greatest Sanatorium of it's kind in the world, and his reputation for the curing of the Drug and Drink Habit Is second to none. He thinks so highly of this partic- ular discovery of his that he has given 1t his own name. calling it JAMES MIN- TURF FOR NERVOUSNESS AND IN SOMNIA," and those who know the high standing of Charles B. James, and the pride he takes in his scientific discoveries, know that any remedy that he stands sponsor for, and permits 10 pear HIS name, must be all it claims.
 Tn his Sauatorium, James discovered that thousands of cases of drunkenness and the drug habit owed their origin to insomnia, and also confirmed the well known theory that nervousness causes sleeplessness, indigestion, constipation, headaches, stomach troubles and loss of appetite He hopes, through this com mound to keep thousands from the drug and drink habit, who otherwise would be- come addicts besides effectively dispeli- ing nervousness and insomnia, for many who otherwise would not only have a wrecked constitution, but a shattered mind as well.
 further need to be nervous, and no cause to have nights of terrible torture, and days of nervousness and what is termed as the .sblues." For relief is in sight. All that is necessary Is to send your name and address in confidence to. Charles B James, James Sanatorium 133 Poplar ave- nue.

If the bill was wrong tho senator from Maine owes 1t to himself and to this body to persist in his mo- tion to secure reconsideration and show it's defects.

SUGGEST NAMES
 FOR BIG HIGHWAYS
ONE MAN THINKS "BouLEvARD
 DEBARDELEBEN" WOULD BE
 MOST APPROPRIATE, AND AM OTHER SAYS PROGRESS AVE"
To the Editor of The Age-Herald.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
 The best suggestion yet as to name for the coming Ensley-East Lake road was in an editorial squib in Mondays Age-Her- aid, which mentioned Rue DeBardele- ben as an appropriate name, in honor of the great pioneer developer. l would amend by making 1t Boulevard DeBar- deleben The word boulevard is an Americanized French one, while Rue is srictly French and means street. More over it might be pronounced by some un- discerning as if spelled roue-a word which should not be coupled with De- Bardeleben.
 Boulevard in the time of Caesars Gallic wars meant the bulwark or rampant of a fortified town, but as the arts of war through the process of the ages gave way to the arts of peace, the ranparts were demolished by the tooth of time, and broad driveways occupied their sites. These were still called bouleyards, how ever, and in modern centuries the French word boulevard has come to mean a broad avenue or driveway about or around a city, The application of it to street Is rather a corruption of the meaning. AS our proposed magnificent county road will in few years become a broad ave- nue or driveway about and around Great CT Birmingham, it should by all means be called a boulevard, as 1t will fit the exact definition of the word And what in- dividual name could 1t receive more sonorous, more sensible or more deserved than DeBardeleben? A name entwined with Brmingham's early history-the name of her greatest pioneer who is yet with us, and who richly deserves this honor from the city and county where his name was so long one to conjure with.
 A noble effort was made by Col. L. W. Johns and other appreciative citizens two years ago to have Vulcan erected in honor of Henry F. DeBardeleben, but poor Vul- can, like the unhappy master of The Raven, was by unnIercifuT disaster fol- lowed fast and followed faater till his song the burden bore of never-never- more. IA great boulevard which will dis tinguish Birmingham for centuries to come will be a nobler, more enduring tribute to Birminghams greatest pioneer than Vulcan could have been.
 The Sage of Monticello has been hon pred enough in this community where he never lived. We have Jefferson county, Jefferson hotel, Jefferson theatre, Jeffer- son ct cetera; and besides the name Jeff ferson is so generally given anything and everything throughout the United States that it cannot be made locally historic. 1 think we should have more individuality.
 The Boulevard DeBardeleben--it will sound musical, 1t will express sentiment, 1t will preserve local history. Let our board of revenue name it Boulevard De- Bardeleben. H. K. WHITE.

Radium in Rocks.

The announcement of the discovery
of radium in the Simplon Tunnel in
sufficient quantity to appreciably
raise the temperature is of consider
able interest from a geological point
of view. For if it can be shown that
this element exists in any consider
able quantity in the earth's crust,
then the time during which it may be
supposed the earth has been a posi-
bic scene of neutrality-suspicious. may
be greatly extended. The earth, in
fact, may be greatly older than was
admitted possible by physicists. For
radium would retard the cooling Of a
one molten globe by continually ra-
dating heat, and thus prolong the
time necessary for it to reach its
present temperature. And this SLOW
err cooling would also prevent, to a
large extent, the radical contraction
upon which so many biologists have
relied as the means Of the elevation
of mountain chains and other secular
movements of the earth's crust. The
presence of considerable quantities
of radium in the earth thus renders
more probable the theories of earth
movements which have been advanced
by those we'll known biologists, NJ.
