Huntsville Disrensary.

Huntsville December 31.-(Spec1aL)
This was the last day of the Madison
county dispensary and no more liquor
will be sold here. The establishment
has had a most proserous career
during the last two years. The stock
of liquors has been allowed to run
down to only the necessities of daily
business because in buying more than
could be sold the commissioners 1aced
the probability of loss. During the
four DAYS of this week the sales nave
not been large, but they have left prac-
tically no stock on hand. The residue
of the stocks will be shipped back to
the manufacturers and jobbers, as IL
is not the intention of the dispensary
commissioners to sell pennys worth
in defiance of the state prohibition
law.
1t is not known what effect, If any,
the fight in Montgomery and mobile on
the prohibition law Will have on the
dispensary. In those cities the sa-
looms will probably continue business
each LIQUOR dealer taking the risk upon
himself This dispensary, however, pc
ing in the hands of public ofhc1als, the
prohibition law as it stands VIII be OBJ
served to the letter. Should the law
eventually be declared unconstitutlon-
al. the dispensary would probably De
reonened for business and run until lts
term of three years prescribed by the
local law has expired.

At midnight last night state wide
prohibition went into effect in Alabama.
Sixteen counties were affected About
526 licensed saloons and II dispen-
saries closed their doors.
According to the statutes Alabama
this morning is absolutely dry.
Some of the dispensaries that were
in operation since the passage of the
state prohibition law closed some
weeks ago for various reasons. Some
closed for want of stock the managers
not caring to replenish for only few
weeks, while others were closed by
popular sentiment against them.
A majority, however. were operated
up to closing time yesterday afternoon
and last night.
LOCALIZED saloons were operated in
only five counties up to yesterday as
follows Mobile. 1926; Montgomery, los
Dallas, 20; Marengo, 8, and Baldwin.

doubted that the saloon men and others
opposed to the new law will put up suf-
ficient funds for making a fight on the
constitutionality of the law.

saloon men in Mobile that they will open
their doors tomorrow, but will operate
soft drink establishments exclusively.
Various brands of near beer" and sim

Don't Blame
Your Stomach
When Without Exertion or Cost You
Can Enjoy Meals and Cure
Dyspepsia.

Don't blame your stomach or your luck
when your meals declare war on your
system.
When the stomach won't do its work
1t is because it cannot.
When foul smelling odors come from
your stomach, when the head aches and
the sourness of mouth every morning
makes you hate your breakfast, when
dreams and nightmare assail you, don't
give up the fight
This is the appeal of nature, and it
should be heard.
Overeating, late suppers, poorly
chewed food, too rich pastries and under
done cooking are some of the causes of
the stomach's i'll health.
When the stomach is busy it presses
and churns all the liquid matter from food
and with its juices dissolves into liquid
form or pulp everything which comes
Into it.
If such food be poisonous it affects the
juices, attacks the stomach, goes into the
blood and weakens the entire system.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
a full meal easily without material as
sistance from the stomach. They will re-
stock the gastric fluid with all the ele-
ments needed. They build up the blood,
destroy sour taste, bad breath, belching,
stomach and bowel trouble and quickly
restore natural conditions.
One grain of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
will digest 1000 grains of food in the stom-
ach or in a glass vial without aid OF the
human digestive apparatus
The method of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets are the methods of nature.
They contain every requisite for the
stomach and digestion. After meal one
of these little tablets when 1t enters the
stomach mingles with the juices, attacks
the food and digests it. It removes the
fermented and decayed mass, lying stag
nant there and eases the stomach at
once.
It is wholly question for you to solve.
Your druggist will furnish Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets SOC the box, or send us
your name and address and we will send
you a trial package free. Address F. A.

is safely estimated that $4,000 comes from

more money, which will go for material
things and add to the county's material
