LET YOUR STOMACH
 HAVE ITS OWN WAY
Do Not Try to Drive and Force It to Work When It Is Not Able You
 VIII Suffer All the More

You cannot treat your stomach as some men treat a balky horse force, drive or even starve 1t into doing work at which 1t rebels. The stomach is a patient and faithful servant and will stand much abuse and ill-treatment be- fore It "balks,' but when it does you had better go slow with it and not at tempt to make 1t work. Some people have the. mistaken idea that they can make their stomachs work by starving themselves. They might cure the stomach that way, but it would take so long that they would have no use for a stomach when they got through The sensible way out of the difficulty Is to let the stomach rest if 1t wants to apd employ substitute to do its work
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will do the work of your stomach for you and digest your food just your stomach used to when 1t was well. You can prove this by putting your food in a glass jar with one of the tablets and sufficient water and you will see the food digested in just the same time as the digestive fluids of the stomach would do it. That will satisfy your mind. Now, to satisfy both your mind and body take one of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after eating-eat all and what you. want--and you will feel in your mind that your food Is being ulB BcSteQ DeCdust you VIII lccl HO uis- turbance or weight in your stomach; ; in fact, you will forget all about hay ing stomach, just as you did when you were healthy boy or girl.
 Stuarts DyspepSa Tablets act In natural way because they contain only the natural elements of the gastric juices and other digestive fluids of the stomach. It makes no difference what condition the stomach is in they go right ahead of their own accord and do their work. They know their busi- ness and surrounding conditions do not Influence them in the least. They thus relieve the weak stomach of all Its burdens and give it it's much needed rest and permit it to become strong and healthy.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale by all druggists at 50 cents box. They are so well known and their popularity Is so great that druggist would as soon think of being out of alcohol or quinine as of them. In fact physicians are prescribing them all over the land, and if your own doctor Is real honest with you. he will tell you frankly that there is nothing on earth so good for dyspepsia as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.

Negro Women on the War Path-C. NJ
 Baugh Dies

Gadsden, November z2--(Special. 1.-The negro women of the city seem to be go- ing on the war path. Within a few days not less than three of the dusky maids have attempted to kill men through jealousy. The first was Annie Williams, who few days ago killed her lover, Buster Bright, In a quarrel. Now comes Lilly Blount, who on Saturday night stabbed a man In North Gadsden. The woman has been arrested, but the victim of her fury has not as yet been located. Last night, Sarah Frost, an- other negress, made murderous assault on Will Milton, a colored cook in one of the local restaurants, and while she did not succeed in reaching his breast with the knife she almost severed one of his fingers with her weapon.
 Charles M. Baugh, one of the best known men in this city and county, where for long number of years he has been engaged in buying cotton, sud- denly died yesterday. Tuesday of last week he went to Boaz on business trip and returned with what was apparently a bad cold. By Wednesday morning he was suffering so that physician was called who pronounced his illness to be pneumonia. He gradually grew worse in spite of the best medical care and died
 
 prominent in business circles and much sorrow is felt in the community.
 The grand jury was again convened to- day and has considerable work on hand, not only unfinished business from the time of adjournment but number of new matters that have transpired since that time. It is probable that several weeks will be required to do the work ahead of it.
 Because of the fact that the census fig ures for the county had been given out by the department it was thought that the enumeration for the city might be se cured with little pressure. With this end in view Mayor Bellenger wired the department several days ago asking if the figures were available, but has been informed that they would not be ready to give out until after the first of the year. when the full figures for the state a ra tO he made public.

 Liquor forces need not be distressed about any secret plot that the prohibit tionists have inaugurated. We are a harmless people. We like the open and a face to face fight. We never surrender and when we fall we fall with our face to the enemy.
 we are not fighting men, but we are fighting traffic that we regard as ruin ous 10 the state, and. if possible, we will influence the incoming legislature to re- tain the present prohibition laws on tho statute books.

the negro. Philips maintained all along that the confession of the negro was voluntary and that it had not been wrung from him.
 In the criminal court today J. B. Burke of the Birmingham force and A. D. Brown, city detective, stated that Philips entered the Birmingham office after the supposed confession, remarking, You ought to have seen that negro jump when we put the electricity to him." specifying the negro as Morris Brown The Birmingham officers, at the same time, testified that Philips had described how the electricity was applied.
 When Philips was called to the stand today he admitted making the remark about the negro jumping. but he denied that the negro referred to was Brown On the showing he was put in jail under bond of $500, but few hours later was released when he admitted that the third degree" had been applied under the supervision of Detective Sigskse of of the Birmingham force.
 As result of the new developments, it is more than probable that Brown, who all along has maintained his innocence, will be granted a new trial.

Shephastown Jefferson County, Thursday

thighs, which were half flexed on the
pelvis. The left arm was extended be-
side the body, with the hand at the hip,
while the right arm was bent, and the
hand near the shoulder. The head was
turned to the left, with the mouth wide
open.
The bones, though broken in places by
the great weight of earth above them, re-
manned firm and in their normal condi-
ton. Only the bones of the right hand
and foot had been displaced, and in part
removed, probably by rodents or small
carnivora.
The skeleton was photographed as il
lay and the leg and arm bones carefully
removed. The pelvis was then covered
with tinfoil and large plaster cast was
nexi formed around it, so that If could be
taken up without injury. The thorax
and the skull were treated in the same
way. Hence these parts can be mounted
without the loss of a single fragment, as
the earth in which they lay will surround
them, inside the plaster casts, until the
casts are opened in the preparing room.
This method is commonly employed by
paleontologists, but this is its first appli-
cation to human remains.
The age of the skeleton is indicated,
with certainty and precision, by the reg
ularity and very characteristic appearance
of the successive strata of the mass in
which it was found. age in prehistoric
chronology refers, not to definite num-
Der of years, but TO period OF more or
less hypothetical duration.) The quar-
ternary geological period, in which man
appeared on earth, began with the COM
paratively warm chellean age, which has
lett remains of the rhinoceros, hippopot-
anus, and elephant, and flinttools scarce
ly modified by man. Then came the cold
acheulean age, the age of the mammoth,
marked by crudely Clipped fints. The
ensuing monsterian age, at first cold but
subsequently mild, represents a higher
civilization possessing a variety OF more
elaborate flint tools-daggerS and picks,
knives and scrapers, and disks OF un-
known use, very characteristic OF the age.
Flints of all OF these types were found
around and above the skeleton, while ru-
der acheulean flintS were found beneath
it. Hence the skeleton is proven TO be
monsterian.
The stratum containing the skeleton
was covered by two strata containing
flints tools of the aurignacian age. The
overhanging cliff then fell, and its debris
subsequently became covered by layer
of earth and stones, five feet in depth,
which has effectually protected the hu-
man relics beneath,
DR.. Captain believes that the skeleton
is that OF a corpse regularly prepared for
sepulture, which may have been covered
with earth, but was not buried in agrave.
Protected by the vicinity oi the living in
habitants OF the shelter, the skeleton eS-
capped the hyenas and was only nibbled
by small animals. This unique skeleton,
which is at least 10000 years old, will
probably be mounted and exhibited in
the Museum OF Natural History in Paris.

Intensive Farming.

More than twelve thousand Southern
boys less than eighteen years old planted
and cultivated an acre of corn each last
year, under the direction of the Depart
ment of Agriculture. Persons interested
in the experiment in Arkansas, Missis-
sippi, South Carolina and Virginia offered
to pay the expenses of trip to Washing
ton for the boy in each State who raised
the greatest amount Of corn on his acre.
The winning boys will soon visit the nat
ional capital.
The average yield of corn TO the acre
in 1909 was a little more than twenty
five bushels. The South Carolina boy,
who made the best record, produced one
hundred and fifty-two and a half bushels.
The winning Mississippi boy raised one
hundred and forty-seyen bushels; the
Arkansas boy one hundred and thirty
five, and the boy in Virginia one hundred
and twenty-five. The average raised by
each OF the twelve thousand was sixty
bushels.
The instructions given to those boys
by the Department of Agriculture are
available to every farmer in the country
If they should be followed exactly, the
yield of corn to the acre could easily be
doubled in single year.
Intensive cultivation is worth while on
all crops. The average yield OF potatoes
to the acre in 1909 was one hundred and
seven bushels, but the Maine farmers
averaged two hundred and twenty-five
bushels, and some of the most progress
Sive of them dug four hundred bushels &c
the acre. The yield OF corn and potatoes
depends more upon cultivation and fer
tilization than upon the soil, and there Is
practically no part Of the United States in
which these crops cannot be raised sue
cessfully.
1t is beyond doubt that larger crops
can be produced from ten acres thorough
ly TILED than from two or even three
times ten acres cultivated as they usually
are. The fact that the ISouth Carolina
prize-winner raised more corn on one
acre than the average farmer produces
from six tells story that should not be
lost upon those for whose benefit the
experiment was made.

Blushing.

BluShing is curious phenomenon, OF
ten very diSagreeable to the sufferer. 1t
is due to sudden relaxation OF the walls
OF the minute blood-veSsels of the surface
of the body, and is classed by physicians
among nervous affections Of the circula-
ton.
SeIf-conSciousness is usually tine excit-
ing cause of habitual blushing, which oc-
ours therefore more commonly in bashiul
children, and in girls more frequently
than inboys. Those who blush easily are
generally OF sensitive, nervous tempera-
ment, and as contact with the world modl-
fies this somewhat, the habit gradually
disappears with age.
The face is the part where blushng
more commonly occurs, although any
other part of the body may show the same
change. One who watches the bushes
of painfully embarrassed person may
see a faint pink flush spread over the ears
and throat, as we'll as the cheeks. 1t is
said that among unciyilized tribes, where
much of the body is habitually exposed,
blushing, when it occurs at all, may in
volve all the uncovered parts. II is pro-
badly because the face is the part by
which one is identified-that which per-
sonifieS the individual-that it is the rec
ognized seat Of the blush.
Sudden attacks of general blushing
without any apparent reason may effect
| those who are somewhat advanced in
! life, and constitute a most diSagreeable
symptom.
Children who blush easily should be
trained to overcome self-conSciouSness
or bashfulness. They should be per-
suaded-not forced-to take a prominent
position among their playmates rather
than to hold back and speak only when
they are spoken to. Undue timidity
should be overcome, because II Injuries

The spontaneous blnsiling or flushing
of adults may be benefited by tonics, re-
medies to aid digestion, a generous ou
simple diet, cool bathing, and plenty o
exercise in the op en- air.

DIR. OsIer On Consumption.

DIR. William Osler, one Of the few ply
sicians of international fame, has taken
up a new work and, Enthusiastically, in
a new way. For many years DR.. Osler
has studied tuberculosis of various sorts,
and he announces his conclusions very
definitely. DR.. Osler says:
1--WE know the germ.
"We know whence il comes.
1--WE know how it gets into the body
eve know how the germ develops m
the body.
1--WE have learned how to recognize
the disease.
eve have learned successfully how to
prevent it.
eve know that the disease is not her
editary.
"And lastly we have learned how to
cure the disease"
In an article in the Woman'S Home
Companion for February DR.. OSler sets
forth these various points at length and
proves his case. 1t is part of great
educational campaign against tuberculo-
sis that should have untold influence on
the present and the coming generation.
