Much has been written recently
as to the ACCESSIBILITY of patronlzlng
'aome" or Southern industries. .
Few realize the full import OF
what it would actually mean to the
south should it's citizens trade more
freely with one another. No better
Illustration can be given of this than
a careful review of the business be-
ing done today by southern life IN
surance companies. These figures
are fairly startling in size, interest
ing in detail and worthy of the con-
sideration of all thinking people.
The 1907 cotton crop was worth
to the south $700,956,O0O. During
that year the south paid out $685.
OS8.35O as premiums on life insur-
ance policies. OF this amount
southern insurance companies re-
ceived only s6,770,334, while north
ern and western companies received
the approximate balance of $4,000
600. Think of it! In about twelve
wears. at this rate, the south would
send away, in premiums alone, an
amount equal to the total value OF
the 1907 cotton crop.

TO SELL HIS HEAD FOR $4,000
A Professor of Amherst College Has
Made an Extraordinary Compact.

A Professor OF AmnerSG OOlIege mas
Made an Extraordinary Compact.
An Amherst, Mass, dispatch to
the Philadelphia Inquirer says: Prof
John Mason Tyler, stone professor Of
biology at Amherst College and son
of Americas greatest Greek scholar,
is reported to have made an extraor-
binary compact with scientists of
wealth whereby he has sold his head
after death for $4,000.
At the college there the report
was circulated, and Prof. Tyler was
asked for it's verification. He de-
clined to make a direct statement,
but said that during his student days
at Leipsiz he belives he made some
such agreement.
1t is because he is reputed to have
the best shaped head in America,
with a most extraordinary brain de-
velopment, that the question becomes
of interest to science. All the ex-
merits in America are familiar with
Prof. Tyler's head, and it is common
knowledge that they regard it OF
great value to the scientific world.

WHISKY SOLD IN SANDWICHES
Alabama "Wets" Evade Law by
Hiding Drinks i'm Bread.

Hiding Drinks i'm Bread.
The sale and distribution of the
whisky sandwiches Is the latest
method of evading the liquor laws
in the state of Alabama. Loaves of
bread, cut and arranged like oyster
sandwiches, are sold over the coun-
ters in lunch rooms presumably OPP
Grated for that very purpose, a bottle
of whisky being cleverly arranged
between the layers of the bread.
1t is said that questionable lunch
rooms have sprung up all over the
state in which these contraband
goods constitute practically the total
bill of fare.
The discovery of the whisky sand
witch was made by the warden at the
Birmingham jail, who took it into
his head to examine an apparently
innocent sandwich which was
brought to the jail for one of the
prisoners by a relative. Upon open
ing the loaf bottle of whisky was
disclosed. A rigid investigation was
then put on foot, which resulted in
the discovery that the whisky sand
witch is already an important article

LANE SUED FOR $1,000.
Farmer, Whose Mule Was Scared by
His Automobile, Wants Damages.

lis "
The Calhoun Courier has received
information from the office of the
clerk of court that Mr.. Warren
Plowden, a farmer living near Edi-
son, had, through an attorney of
Dawson, filed suit against Editor A.
M. Lane of the Edison News for
damages to the amount of 1000 for
injuries alleged to have been re-
ceived as the result of his mules be-
coming frightened at Mr.. Lanes au-
tomobile.
1t is said Mr. Plowden alleges
in his suit that he was in Edison
driving two mules hitched to a
wagon and that the mules became
frightened at the approach of the
automobile. He claims he asked Mr..
Lane to stop his machine until he
could get his mules out of the way,
but his request was not needed and
the mules turned and ran, throwing
him out of the wagon and severely
injuring him.
The suit will probably come up for
trial at the next term of Calhoun su-
perior court.

That Prohibition Does Prohibit.

Statement Is Based on Government
Figures, and He Says 1t Is Proof
That Prohibition Does Prohibit.
BY the decrease Of nearly a million
dollars day in liquor production
during July and August this year
from the production in the cores
ponding months in the last year it is
declared by Chas. R. Jones, national
chairman of the prohibition party,
that nearly $6O,OOO,OOO has been
saved for the people from the liquor
Golfers. Mr.. Jones said he based his
statement on official figures received
from the internal revenue depart
ment at Washington.
THE report shows" said Mr..
Jones, that there has been a de-
crease of $5,858,487.03 in the inter
nal revenue receipts from taxes on
the liquor traffic during July and
August of this year as compared with
the corresponding months of last
year, and a decrease in the value OF
liquor production of $58, 198,77O.7O.
These figures are the best proof
that prohibition does prohibit, which
many friends of the liquor interests
attempt to deny.
1T simply means that on the mar
ket estimates of the liquor makers
themselves more than $58,000,000 OF
the peoples money that went for
liquor products in the same two
months of 1907 has gone to legiti-
mate business in the last two

of the total insurance in force in the
United States. In 1907 the precent-
age carried by southern companies
had increased to 80 per cent. of the
total insurance in force, and it is
most gratifying to note also that
they secured IS per cent. of the in
crease in the southern states during
the past three years. This strongly
indicates that the plea for home
