been treated since we established this magnificent machine, yet the results have been marvellous in every case. Friend aptly remarked, "Electro-Radio must be learned practically under skilled opera tor. and not from books" That is why this company pays the highest salaries, and thereby procures the finest talent Tn the world today, and I may further re- mark that right here in Birmingham they have employed men of genius who are destined to eventually become stellar lights in the worlds greatest scientific achievements In the next few years to come. When you take this treatment be sure to not overdo 1t: twice weekly is sufficient to cure any case, and when 1t Is taken too often it does for yo uexactly what an overloaded stomach would do- there would be a nexcess of gas. the same as there is an excess of food to be disposed of, which overtaxes the stomach. This machine is the only one in the mid de west, and was installed only a few days ago at an expense of five thousand dollars Two expert operators go with the machine to SC that the most scien- ttfic and expert treatment is given. 1 consider this one of the greatest benefac- tors of the human race, and Birmingham Is indeed lucky to possess such a great invention for the saving of human life.
 MT. J. K. Stewart of 2214 Avenue G is loud in his praise after being relieved of a severe case of stomach trouble Mrs. A. Gross of BOA s. 19th street, relieved of liver trouble.
 MT. Christ Underwood of Walker coun- ty has just reported passing many gall stones after one treatment.

WITH THOSE WHO LABOR
 IN THE LORDS VINEYARD
BY D. V. FRANCIS

New York, September n-(Special.)- We in New York are inclined to be pes smistic regarding the work of the church. The city is so great that the number of those who have no church affiliations is so large, and so much in evidence, the open violation of the Amer ican Idea of the Sabbath is so frequent that it is not unnatural to feel that the church is losing grounds.
 It is gratifying, therefore. to know that this feeling is not based on facts
 comparative study of the population figures given out by the census bureau with the growth of the churches during the past ten years shows that, great as has been the increase In population since 1900 in New York, the accession in church membership has been a little greater.
 Tn all five boroughs of the city in 1900 there were 1,233,677 members of Christian
The Birmingham age-herald., 1910-09-18

churches. This was 34.9 per cent of the population. While the church member ship figures for this year are not com plete, by taking those for 1909, and as- sumng that the increase in the last year of the decade has been the same aver aged for the entire decade, the number of church members in the five boroughs this year will be 1,751,214 This number is 37.2 per cent of the new census figures, or Is per cent ahead of population growth.
 This increase is evenly distributed be- tween Protestants and Roman Catholics. In 1890 there were 353,S12 Portestants. ac- tual members, and 9O9. .925 Roman Catho- lies The method of counting in the two divisions of Christianity is quite differ ent from the figures first given. not in- cluding many who call themselves Pro- testants. but are not regular attendants and contributors.

COST OF LIVING IS
 RISING IN FRANCE

Paris. September f.-(Special.) l.)-The cost of living in France continues to rise and has increased by one-third during the last decade. Last Saturday the Restau- rant Keepers association of Paris decid- ed to raise, the price of vegetables and various meat dishes. It Is explained that wine has become so expensive that the restaurants can no longer afford to serve cheap dishes. The price of potatoes, moreover has nearly doubled. Attempts are being made to reassure the popula- ton and to prove that the crisis is pure 1y temporary, but experience has shown that when once prices have been raised the middleman is reluctant to reduce them.
 2 M. Cochery, minister of finance, decided to raise the tax on the superior brands of tobacco and cigarettes from 10 to 30 per cent in order to wipe out deficit on

The police of this city, who have been famous for their activity have become lazy of late. Following the example of many New York policemen they are doing only the things actually required of them. Here Is sample case; An old resident of Paris recently picked up what he was supposed to have thought a bun dle of Illustrated papers. Reaching home he looked into the bundle and what was his surprise to find bonds worth $8oOO He went straight to the police commissary of his quarter and turned them over to him. You should not have brought them here, said the officer You should take 1t to the commissary of the Eastern railroad. for you found 1t in that quar- ter" But I haven't time to go so far," said the finder.
 That is not my business, and 1t will be your fault if the owner of those bonds has paid to stop payment on them You have prolonged his agony and made him think his treasure lost Now. you don't know the victim of your delay has com mitted suicide" said the officer. who con scented to have the bundle carried to where it belonged, grumbling about men picking up bundles and then bothering public officers with extra work.
 The police, 1t Is believed. are sulking because they are allowed to use pistols only in self-defense and then when crooks may have reyolvers on them.. The lem iency towards criminals is attributed to the sentimentalism which has been cul- tivated by doctrinaries who believe a criminal who is a criminal from choice can be reformed by letting him have his own way.

In the Restaurants of the City
 of Paris
ToMBs ARE DISCOVERED
Remains of Richard Occur de Lion and of Queen Eleanor Are Found
 During Excavations in
 Abbey Of Fontexrault

Paris, September 17-(Special.) .)-The trade and labor unionists of this city are very much incensed over the increase of prices in the restaurants which they ire quent. Some are quietly, others openly organizing a movement to secure a lunch con to the old rates, threatening a boy cott, unless their demands are complied with To raise prices would have been considered a serious matter, but coupled with the announcement that prices have been raised carries the other announce ment that half portions will no longer be served.
 The government has abolished the old fashioned leather infantry knapsack. This will be replaced by a knapsack made of brown sacking and will be car ried much lower than the old one, in the method adopted by tourists in Switzer- land.
 One of the principal reasons for doing away with the old knapsack is the i'm possibility for soldiers wearing 1t to have freedom of movement, and to shoot in a reclining position.
 The new knapsack will not look so smart on parade, but will be more prac- tically useful.
 A discovery of interest to scholars and historians Is announced The Tombs of the Plantagenets in the Abbey of Fon- tevrault have been discovered by the gov ernment inspector-general of historical in restoring the abbey discovered traces of inscriptions and paintings in an arched recess of the transept This ornamental tion consisted of gold crosses. escutch cons and traces of heraldic devices repre- senting leopard's paws Below there re- mained traces of the following names: "Richard," 'Alienor." and Henri" Be- meath the floor were found the tombs Of Richard Coeur-de-Lion and of Queen Eleanor Next to them were the tombs of Henry II. and of Isabella Angouleme.
 It Is proposed to remove the remains and re-inter them In place of honor in the abbey.
 Crime and the police are attracting much attention here. A choloroform rob bery had the center of the criminal stage recently business man from Lille came on to pay a bill of s1oo0o. Going to well-known cafe he asked two bash full young women sitting next to him to dine with him. He exhibited the roll of banknotes. They took him to a fiat and tea was made The man had no sooner slipped his cup when he fell asleep. He awoke next day, still dazed by the mar cotic poured into his tea, and found him. self alone. minus his pocketbook, In furnished room for rent, of which bill was presented to him He told the police that one of the women wore a bangle with a gold pig having two ruby eyes. detective traced the lady with the lucky pig, and met her and her friend outside the Scarlet Windmill.

 The police are searching for another burglar named Mollet, who by mesmeric was the influence under which two young Frenchmen of good family, Fred Rothen- stein and Napoleon Capello, committed a burglary.
 | At the trial 1t was stated that the young men were smokers of opium and of hasdish, and not responsible. Some time ago they made the acquaintance of the professional burglar and he acquired such a mastery over them that he in duced them to break into a house. They themselves made nothing by their crime l Rothenstein has been put into prison asylum, but Capello was sent to prison because he was considered responsible | for his act.

An amusing defence was made by Franco Brigaux. an electrician, charged in the Paris police court with stealing a clothier's dummy and dress. He said 'The fact is, I had had glass or two and a glass or two flies at once to my poor head. Moreover. my sight was blurred. Strolling along I saw girl, and when I got nearer I recognized her. 'Hullo,' l said to myself, here's Fidine. my sweetheart.
 'Hullo, Fifine.' said I. what swells we are,' and got my arm round her waist just lifted her of her feet.
 T was just going to kiss her when I found 1t was not Fifine at all, but fig ure to show a dress of. The shopkeeper looked around, thought I was making of with the dummy and the dress and shouted. Stop, thief! and I was run in I tried to explain, but they wouldn't listen"
