MEMORY MENDINo.
What Food Alone Can Do for tho
Memory.

The influence of food upon the brain
and memory is SO little understood that
people are inclined to marvel at 1t.
Take a person who has been living on
improperly selected food and put him
upon a scientific diet in which the food
Grape-Nuts is largely used and the in
crease of mental power that follows IL
truly remarkable.
A Canadian who was sent to Colorado
for his health illustrates this point In a
most convincing manner;
"One year ago I came from Canada .

reduced in weight to almost a skeleton.
and my memory was so poor that con-
versations had to be repeated that had
taken place only few hours before.
was unable to rest day or night, for my
nervous system was shattered
'sThe change Of climate helped little,
but 1t was soon seen that this was not
all that needed. I required the proper
selection Of food, although I did not real
ize 1t until friend recommended Grape
Nuts to me and I gave this food thor
ough trial Then knew what the right
food could do and l began to change In
my feelings and bodily condition.
'"This kept up until now, after months
use of Grape Nuts, all my nervous trouble
has entirely disappeared, have gained In
flesh all that l had lost, and what Is
more wonderful to me than anything else
my memory is as good as It ever was.
'Cirape- Nuts has remade me all over,
mind and body, when I never expected to
be we'll and happy again." There's
reason"
Look for the famous little book, Tho
Road to MELVILLE" in pkgs.
Ever read the above letter? A new
one appears from time to time. They
are genuine, true, and full of human
interest.

highway would then be tolerated just the
same as under the present law, viz: so
long as properly driven. Whatever the
speed limit the matter boils down to an
arbitrary decision as to what constitutes
proper driving An officer may make one
ruling this week and change his mind
next week. The automobilist never knows
when he is going to be held up by the
law, as 1t depends largely on the physical
and mental condition of the officer.
One fixed limit for all places and condi-
tions is absurd in itself. There are times
when eight miles hour is reckless,
and when % miles an hour is safe. There
is where the drivers Judgment enters,
and where a set of rules and regulations
drawn up by the organization would be
applicable.
Whatever the laws, rules and regula-
tons may be, the automobilists oan do
more toward enforcing them than the Of
flcers of the law. This has been demon
strated in connection with the dynamiting
of streams. The game wardens could ac-
complish little or nothing. When those
fond OF the sport assisted in bringing
to justice the guilty ones the law was
effective 1t Is an easy matter for own
ers and drivers of automobiles to check
up the speed and recklessness of other
drivers by direct comparison, to see that
they follow the rules and regulations OF
the road as set out by the organization,
to report cases of violation and to see
that the violators are brought to justice.

KING CONFIDENT OF
VICTORY FOR BILL
Greater Birmingham Nearer
Realization Than Ever Before
SENTIMENT OVER STATE
Birmingham's Greatest Asset is Good
Will of People of State Who
Take Pride in the
Metropolis.

1T is hard to understand" said Repre-
sentative Jere C. King yesterday, "how
the report has gone abroad that have no
confidence in our ability to pass the
Greater Birmingham bill at the coming
session of the legislature, when 1 was
never before so confident of victory as |
am today.
Members of the legislature generally
want to see Greater Birmingham real
ity as much as we do here in Birming-
ham and seventy per cent. of the House
will be found favorable to the measure
In the Senate we have the assurances of
three senators who will vote for it now
who were against it when it was passed
before. They realize that it is a good
thing, that the people have passed upon
1t overwhelmingly and most of them will
regard the creation of Greater Birming-
ham as a formality. All reports to the
contrary, we are absolutely confident of
of getting the bill passed
did you ever stop to think of the di-
rect personal interest practically every
citizen of Alabama has in the city of
Birmingham? 1 do not believe there is
another case like it in the United States
Birmingham is the pride of the state and
here is the reason. 1 will venture the as
sertion that there is not a single hamlet
or precinct in Alabama which has not
sent some young man forth to make his
future in Birmingham. If a young man
has not been sent some well known citi-
zen of the community has bought little
property in Birmingham and all of his
neighbors know it, They know that any
thing that benefits Birmingham will BEN
eft their neighbor or will assist in the
future of the young man which the
community has sent to Birmingham to
make his fortune. If you will inquire
around you will be amazed at the num-
Der of people ip Birmingham from the
smaller towns of the state. And you
can say what you please, but every
Alabamian here has friends back home
who are watching his career and they
are always ready to give Birmingham a
boost on "his'' account. We who have
lived in small towns know what this
means and the good will Of the smaller
communities of Alabama is Birming
hams greatest asset. 1t should be mutual
and If Birmingham gets an opportunity
to help the agricultural communities she
ought to do SO.
Members of the legislature simply re-
fleet the sentiment of the communities
from which they come and the man who
thinks they do not reflect a tender re-
gard for Birmingham is greatly mis-
taken. And as I say, the personal ele-
ment is largely responsible. Birmingham
has a great many people here from other
states and even other nations but we
must remember that Birmingham is for
the most part made up of Alabamians
and the friends at home can be de-
pended upon any time to do their part
in adding to Birmingham greatness"

DIR. Kelly, who died in Nashville yes

years ago. He was esteemed as one

an earnest preacher but few men
equaled him in scflo Iarship. He was re-
garded indeed as ~ man of rare liter

less the commissioners give them a court
house, then It should be given to them.
The county can afford 1t and have no
doubt Bessemer is entitled to a court
building.
"The matter will never be settled by
mere discussion because the commissioners
cannot very well pay out the eounty's
money until the voters decide that they
need and desire a new courthouse. The
matter, 1t seems to me, is well enough
understood over the county for an cleo
ton, and I am in favor of the Board OF
Revenue calling a bond election at an
early date"
