Twill Lighten Life's Burden and Lessen
 It's Care

It's Care By Mrs Mary Ware M ,,. Yes there's trouble enough in this life, my brother; Sorrow enough without profit or gain Trouble enough, quite enough, my nroth- Without giving each other needless pain. Much of the wrong and heartaehe' my brother, Much of the bitterness known to us here. Comes from a careless word spoken an- Tn pIace of a smile we planted tearl God pity us for the sorrows we are so"- The wrecks that are scattered far out OCT the sea; The pain that we give sometime without knowing Oh, hedp us, dear Father, our error V seei Give us a heart that is ready to proffer The hand of true friendship, whatever betde: A warm heart that will win the cold
 scoffer.
 And turn all his skeptical arrows aside. Mueh of the trouble we all learn to hor-
 row Is never our own. but in seeming: Much of lfe's sunshine is left for tomor- row,
 And then it all fades out in dreaming.  God help us to garner the sunshine about us, And see but the good that is given us here, Forgiving the erring, who eensure and doubt us Twill tighten life's burden and lessen it's care. Birmingham, Ala.

By WALTER HARPER.
Metllodists

1 then pastor at Elyton. The Methodists had service once each month.
 A $1GC0 church was erected at the cor ner of Twenty-frst street and Sixth ave- nue the following year, and was dedicat- ed by Bishop Doggin in December of 1872 The Rev. T. H. Davenport was the first regular pastor sent To the church.
 This was the interesting period of Bir- minghams organization.
 Robert H. Henley was the first mayor. He was appointed by Gov. K. B. Lindsay. He went into office December T, ISL, to hold until the first Monday in January, 1873 But his health failed and he re- signed before the expiration of his term.
 MT. Henley is described as a handsome and promising young attorney who had recently come to Birmingham from De- mopols
 The aldermen under his administration were James E. Francis. B. r. Poden, w. J. Mcdonald. A. Marre ]. B. Webb, John A. Miner and T. $. Woods Nll- liam Alexander was city clerk; James Mcconnell was treasurer; o. D. Williams was marshal or chief of police. The other policemen were Robert Bailey and H. Clay Atkins. The mayor also acted as policeman when occasion required In those crude times of organization.

"Incompetent."
 Perhaps ne other word in the English language tells al more pathetic story of human tragedy.
 A few men have been known to outliYe and overcome the terrible sentence. but 1t requires courage and will power superior to that possessed by the average man.
 Though the pronouneement has been the death blow to hundreds. it has been the goad to push others to success. Some Of the most successful men in the world could never have attained their high sta tion without the necessity of having had to fight against the most trying odds.

FAMILY COUCH SYAUP
Cures Any Cough In Five Hours. NEW PRESCRIPTION HERE.

Here is given the most effective cough prescription known to the medi- cal world. It is a mild laxative. too, and this is what a body needs when suffering with cough and cold on the lungs. A cough or cold indicates poisons in the system. causing fnffam- nation and congestion. Nearly all cough syrups relieve, but make the trouble worse by their constipating ef- fleets. This prescription not only re- lieves quickly, but it cures any cough that is curable. Get onc-half ounce fluid wild cherry bark, one ounce com pound essence cardiol and three ounces syrup white pine compound. Mix in a bottle. Take for acute cough or bron- chitis twenty drops every half hour for four hours. Then one half to one tea spoonful three or four times daily. Give children less according to age. A few hours treatment will<cure and heal the throat and lungs of all but consump- tives. Cut this out and give it to some friend who may need 1t to be saved from an early deathby consumption.
