 In a finely divided state charcoal not only condenses gases to a marvel ous extent. but also has the power of absorbing coloring matters. It is a very rapid absorbent of gases of every kind, and Is much used in the dissect- ing rooms and wards of hospitals for the removal of offensive odors.
 In rooms which have been recently or freshly painted. pan or other re- ceptacle of charcoal allowed to remain absorb and remove all the disagreeabe paint -odor.
 Physicians frequently employ char coal for destroying the fetor of wounds, for which purpose it Is applied in the form of powder or poultice to gangrenous sores. ulcers. etc. It is also largely used in tooth-powders, as by its mechanical action it removes .incrustations of the teeth, while by Its chemical action; It hestroys fetor.

PREACHER IN A ROW
1.-THE LEE- IS i PASSED IN BAY
 MINETvrE.
A Personal Difficulty Between Rev. MT. Chambers And MT. Burns Over Politics is
 Narrowly Averted.

Bay Minette. Nov. 24-(Special)-- The controversy yesterday between Rev. Mir. Chambers, pastor of the Methodist church here. and George w. Burns, chairman of the county anti amendment campaign committees. has caused much comment In Bay Minette,
 It seems that MT. Chambers had made the statement that if the amendment is defeated in Baldwin county he will never preach another sermon in the county. Yesterday MT. Burns met MT. Chambers and good naturedly remarked that MT. Cham bers would leave Bay Minette after next Sunday, reminding him of what he had said.
 Mir. Chambers Is reported to have said that he did not care as the best men and all the good women were on his side of the question.
 "That is a lie," retorted- MT. Burns. Mir. Chambrs modified his statement by saying that all good women were for the amendment who had not been influenced by their husbands.
 "That is lie," said MT. Burns. flor there are many good women against the amendment who have no hus- bands.'
 MT. Burns started to walk away and as he turned MT. Chambers said: "Then you are another liar"
 At this MT. Burns whirled upon the preacher and knife in hand. threaten ed to cut his throat. calling him "a scoundrel."
 Spectators interfered at this point and a fight was averted
 The local campaign committee of the amenders say they will not divulge the names of their campaign commit tee in the various precincts in this county to be sent to The Advertiser. When the correspondent called at headquarters asking for them he was refused by the chairman for reasons he claims to be his own. He said he did not care for Tho Advertiser to have the list.

Covering the work of the state de- pertinent of education for the year end ing September 30. 1908 the report of H. c. Gunnels. state superintendent of education. has been submitted to Gov ernor Conner.
 The report embraced figures which reveal progress in every phase of edu- rational work in the state. The report
 A careful study of the figures con fained in this report presents some facts highly gratifying.
 It iB observed that the enrolment of white children shows an increase of four and three-flfths per cent. of coll ored children four and one-half per cent. while the increased attendance among the whites reaches eight and one-half, the coiored increased atten- dance being two per cent. The num- Der of schools taught during the year closed September 30. 1909, shows an in- crease among the whites of three and pne-haif per cent over the previous year and about the same percentage of increase among the colored. However, a marked Improvement is shown when we observe that the number of graded schools among the whites evidences an increase of s6 per cent. and the colored graded schools an increase over the previous year of forty-three per cent. This evidence of classifying. grading and systenatizing the work on the part of the teachers in all the public schools is a striking example of their Increased effciency.
 The Depar tment of Education has made earnest effort toward organizing . better system in the classification of the work in rural schools realizing that the lack of system on the part of many rural schools was prime cause of their ineficiency. The establish ment of county high schools. assuming g as they did a large part of the work In secondary education, assisted ma teriaiiy In bringing about this grading of rura1i schools
 t The Teaching Force.
 .aThe teaching force in Alabama shows an increase among white male teachers of six per cent and of white female teachers an increase of seven and one-haif percent. The number of negro teachers has been increased dur Ing the year five per cent. among the males and six per cent among the fe- males.
 "It may be observed that Alabama keeps employed In this working force educating her white children more than two thousand men and about four thousand women. The negro teachers number a little more than twehty-one hundred. about fourteen hundred of them being women.
 The most gratifying feature of the report with reference to the teachers themselves is the evidenc of earnest effort on their part to equip themselves for more eficient service. It will be noticed that the number of white teachers holding first grade and life grade certificates shows an increase over the previous year of fifteen per cent. while the number of white teach CTS holding second grade certificates shows an increase over the previous year of twenty per cent, whereas the number of white tc$,hers holding third grade certificate, has been reduced nine per cent from the previous year. the net increase in the sum total of white teachers being seven per cent over the previous year. The negro teachers in like manner appear to be improving s along similar lines. The number of

Peruna is an ideal tonic for old

remedies that has been known to the
medical profession for many years.
| Peruna operates as tonic by cleans
ing and invigorating the mucous mem
branes. This explains why Peruna
has become so extensively known as a

condition of depraved mucous MEM
