LESS HEAT
Advice of Family Phy,

Formerly people thought meat neces- sary for strength and muscular vigor.
 The man who worked hard was sup posed to require meat two or three times a day. Science has found out differently.
 It Is now a common thing for ths family physician to order less meat. as in the following letter from a New York man:
 T had suffered for years with dys- pepsia and nervousness. My physician advised me to eat less meat and greasy to take the place of my. usual break got no relief until l tried Grape Nuts food.
 After using Grape Nuts for the ce- real part of my meals for two years am now a well man. Grape Nuts ben efited my health far more than the $500 worth of medicine had taken be- fore.
 My wife and children are healthier than they had been for years and we are a very happy family, largely due to Grape-NutS.
 We have been so much benefited by Grape Nuts that 1t would be ungratefui not to acknowledge 1t.

ATTEMPTS SUICIDE
YOUNG BOY TRIES TO HANG HIM. SEIsF.
Hung Himself From Bed in His Cell fin Jail Where He Was COnfin-
 ed--Rescued by the Jailer. ,-

Tuscumbia, March 26.-(speeial.)-A seventeen-year-old boy named Elmer son, made an attempt at suicide by hanging himself to his bed in the city jail in this city yesterday, and but for the timely arrival of Jailer Ry- lant, would probably have succeeded.
 With the aid of a short rope and his shoe strings. he made a rope and placed 1t around his neck and tied one end to the bed post. He had been hanging for some time and was unconscious when discovered, but re- vived quickly when cut down. The boy states that he Is from Birmingham. and Is an orphan He was arrested and placed in the city jail Wednesday for attempting to burglarize a store In Tuscumbia the night before. having admitted his guilt.
 He says he regrets having attempted suicide, but that he was Respondent, without money, could find no employ mept, and, that he decided to put an end. to his unprofitable life.
 The boy was put to work on the street force to work out his sentence imposed for the offense of attempting to burglarize a store.

 just question of who stands. like Horatius, at the bridge. Girard has the best vantage point to serve the thirsty emtgrant from Columbus. Therefore. Phenix City finds 1t easier to be good.
 Phenix City h "Good1
 But Phenix City. which. gecgraphi- cally, you can hardly distinguish from Girard, says 1t is good because It wants to be good and obey the law. They had two saloons before Jan. |. 1908, when they went dry by the local option vote of Lee County. They al- lege a grievance when Gfrard refused to dry" up on that date. It was con- tagious, of course. and the temperance folk of the Lee County town com plained that across the line--which was across the street--was the siren call of the blind tiger. That prevent ed Phenix City from reaping the bene- fits from Its own abstinence. They had a double right to be dry. for had not Lee County voted that way and had not a special act of 1897 guaran- teed that should Girard be rid of her saloons that soon would Phenix City become free of the demon?
 The public is doubtless familiar with the interest that. Governor Conner has had to manifest in the conditions here. Moved bv the farce of the law in Gi- rard, the Law. and Order League ap- pealed to the Governor for help in en- forcing it. On top of this appeal ru- mors were rife that "Comer and the soldiers are coming" For the time the tigers drew into their shells and trembled. Then as the musketry did not rattle. and the militia did not tramp. they drew out of their shells. Again the reign of liquor sales Is said to have started.
 Heavy Fines Imposed.
 E The conditions are more puzzling to know that the Russell County juries convict for violating the prohibition law. They convicted Eve men at the last term of the Circuit Court. The men were fined $100 and up and put on probation for future good behavior. It is said that those defendants did quit that for which they had been con- victed. but others seems to be running in their stead. It seems to have been only e relay.
 The imported detective did his work all right. He assumed Inc role of a drummer and went fishing" in Girard. He had fshed successfully in Colum- bus and landed big guns. He had a convincing way on the witness stand as he had purchasing capacity at the tigers. That attracted the Law and Order League of Girard. who got his services. The league spent. one of them told me. over $500. in running down their convictions. And as a. re- suit they are disappointed. The off, cers did their duty, and the jurors did theirs, but conditions did not improve.
 That was what gave rise to the last strong appeal to the Governor. The Governor. if he had any retaliatory spirit. might well have been moved to deal rigidly with Girard. It was this town that turned a. majority against hsm in the primaries. Here reside many votesr who want the Russell County courthouse. They feel that the Gov- ernor did an injustice in not allowing

q vote on the removal of the county seat from Scale to this point. It 'tr said this has something to do with the ''open" disposition of the city. Law Enforcement Hopeless. At any rate. the Law and Order League, not biuffed by dynamite ex- ploded at their doors. continue their efforts to enforce the law. They ad- init 1t is almost hopeless from within. They, therefore, complained again to the Governor. That offcial had ex- pressed a confident hope that if some convictions were had things would improve. That sounded good enough on paper The Governor, about the middle of this month. answered the complaint of the Law and Order League by limiting that they must be mistaken. He asked them to look an actual improvement. Soon the league representative will write. If he has not written. that the only im- provement they have been able to see Is in the growth of tigers. That leaves the situation high in the air again and some people are looking for an overt act of the Governor in this case.
 This incident is said to have recent ly took place in Girard: An aggrieved

He confess ed to a craving which he could not con- trol when the drink was 50 easy to get The woman. trusting more in prohibition than her husband, hinted at being from Missouri. The husband said that if she would furnish the money he would show her.

 Then, 1t is related. the couple walked down town. MT Blank, at a point op- posite his favorite resort, told his wife to stop and keep her eyes pealed." That she did and saw him enter the place, thrown down the money and get his booze. It may be that a sample ot 1t was carried to the disgusted woman. who may make 1t the basis of a war rant of arrest.
 Girard and Phoenix City, 1t should be remembered. are composed mostly of a population that would do we'll by actual prohibition. They are the homes of thousands of mill operatives who work at the plants in Columbus and find 1t healthier and cheaper to live on this side of the river. Excessive drinking in this community bears down on the family purse more than the average. Savings could be enhanced and encouraged more if real prohibit tion obtained.

But if the word of others is carefully weighed this may be doubted These others point indignantly to fine resi- dences that are being built by men who. profit by present" conditions. These men are neither Manufacturers nor merchants. Nor did they make such a display before prohibition.

be taken up. There are very few cases awaiting trial. however.
 It Is very gratifying to our citizens to see how little lawlessn ess there has been in the county this past year.
 Eutaw was lately honored by a visit of two days from Hon. Alfred Glover. formerly of Forkland, several times a member of the Legislature. Mir. Glow CT is one of the county's most distin- guished citizens. He and Judge Wilkes Coleman are bosom friends and were class mates during their preparatory and college courses.
 A very important business transac- ton and change recently took place in Boligee. The store and business of the estate of the late E. F. Bou chelle was purchased by MT. Henry Bouchelle. one of the wealthiest men in this ssc- tion of the State. Two large brick stores have been completed in Boitgee. one Is to be used as an annex to Hen ny Bouchelle and Company's main building.

LIVINGSTON ON TRIAL.
States Side of Murder Case at Flor.
 ence fs Heard.

Florence March 2s.-(Special.) )-The States side of the case against Dem nie Livingston, the Methodist preacher on trial for the murder of Andrew Jack son, in the east end of the county, on October 8. 1908, was heard yesterday morning in the criminal court.
 The shooting occurred in the store of R. R. Word. on Anderson's creek, MT. Word, his father and two other men. besides the principals to the tragedy being present at the time. Jackson was sitting on nail keg in the front part of the store. whiting, when Liv- tngston entered. Livingston stopped in the door and sa!d get out of here, you low down rascal" Jackson re- piled, I'll get out when I get ready and advanced towards the preacher, when the latter fired five times. Jack son turned and walked several yards towards the rear of the store and then returned partly to the front and fell. Later when he was turned over by the Words, his pocket knife was still clutched between his third and fourth fingers as he had held 1t while whit ting.
 The defense will try to prove that Livingston went to the store on a peaceful mission and shot in self de- fense. George P. Jones and J. L. An drews, of Sheffield represent the de- fense and Solicitor R. T. Simpson the State.
