Anniston, Feb. 20 Special )--The friends of three prominent Anniston lawyers are urging them to enter the race for appointment as Judge of the United States District and Circuit Court for Northeastern Alabama.
 The men mentioned are John Pelham, Circuit Judge, who was in the race when Judge Hundley was appointed: J. J.

Knox. who has won considerable note by his able defense of Judge Huhdley before the Senate sub.committeeG and who was president of the late Constitution al c4nvention - ss.
 None of these gentlemen has made any expression on the anatter and it is not likely that they Wilf do so until the case of Judge Hundley is finally disposed of.

 As the summer approaches with some warm weather, the windows of the city hall offices can be left open and the workers are not so often gagged by the smell of meat, from the butcher shops below that has permeated the at- mosphere all winter.

WORDS OF WISDOM.

Sooner or later the man who does
his best gets the best job.
A man can get a good deal of fun
out of a poker game if he gets all
there is in it.
One difference between the rich
and the poor is that the former dc
not envy the latter.
Some women are so anxious fol
something to boast of they will braf
of a daughter who gets up after
breakfast.
1t has just about got so in this
country that as soon as a MAI get:
used to the way his wife looks she
buys a new hat.
When a schoolboy gets about
twelve years old he begins to suspect
that the reason father doesn't help
him with his lessons is because
father can't.
A back number is a person who
doesn't look out for number one.
When young people are not happy
it is a sign that they are human.
When a man has no one but him
self to blame he always finds an ex-
cuse.
OF course g woman has a perfect
right to ask her husband for money.
hrt what's tha uSao
Sometimes it seems like those
who toll not nor spin put in their time
at knocking.
The kind OF man who carries his
pocket change in 4 tight little purse
nearly always has some.
One reason why the loafer doesn't
enjoy his leisure is because nc has tc

About the hardest thing in this
world for a young nan to do is TO tel:
a girl she is pretty without making
her believe it.
When a woman's figure looks vii.
lowy she takes the credit to herself;
when it looks like 4 cord of wood she
blames it on her corset.
When a woman has a cook who
takes the responsibility of planning
and preparing the meals and a hus.
band who sees to paying for them
she has time to be as miserable rs
