STATE Treasury Is VOb
In Healthier Condition

dictative of what can be done this fall
with ease, after which time 1t is felt
that the revenues will be ample to take
care of the needs.
The trouble with the state account
is not so much any falling off in re-
ceipts for, as a matter OF fact those
of 1909 were In excess of 1908 by S45,-
S42.93. There is $4,000 In franchise
taxes tied up in the courts that might
have been used, these alone being
enough to have saved any borrowing
this year. At the same time the liquor
licenses are cut out by the general
prohibition laws, when they were
figured in the original budget of in
come and expenses. All In all the mat
ter is In fine shape. The state, as
noted, has a balance now of $433, 900
with the loans paid back, the interest
paid and an open road for several
months. Last year the deficit was
S67O,S01 so, and the year before s4S7.-
143.17.
Under the present laws very little of
this money is kept in the vaults at the
capitol state repositories in verious
counties hold it and it is thus made a
part of the circulating medium. w. D.
Seed, state treasurer. worked another
scheme in December by having the tax
collectors cash warrants IN their coun-
ties for school teachers. thus getting
quickly to use the balances of the col
lectors, often delayed In the routine

Acid Dyspepsia
Nervous People Are Frequent Sufferers
From Too Much HydrocIoric Acid
In the Stomach.
A Trial Package Of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets Sent Free

Sour stomach, or acid dyspepsia Is;
a form of Indigestion in which entirely
too much hydrochloric acid is secreted
by the stomach. A sour taste in the
mouth is the most common symptom OF
acid dyspepsia; and the saliva which is
normally alkaline, is found. when tested,
to be changed to acid, or just the oppo-
site of what 1t should be, and Is a state
of the secretion which causes rapid and
extensive destruction OF the teeth.
Everything eaten turns more or less
sour in the stomach. but sweets and acid
fruits are far worse in this respect than
other foods. If the eructation of LIQUIDS
from the stomach occurs. they have such
an extremely sour taste as to set the
teeth on edge
Hydrochloric acid Ia an important con-
stituent in the gastric juice, but when
too much of 1t is secreted 1t does positive
harm to the mucous lining of the ston-
ach and when acid dyspepsia is long
continued it often sets up chronic gas
trtis, gastric ulcer. and other serious
diseases The premature loss of all the
teeth has been caused by acid saliva.
which was dependent upon the excessive
ly acid condition of the stomach.
STUART'S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS.

the stomach to dilute the excess of hy-
drochloric acid, and to digest proteids

cium carbonate. which are artagonistic to
the acid and therefore neutralize the ef-
feet of the excessive amount of acid in
the stomach, and the continued use of
these tablets viii change the perver ted

state.

Novel Experiment by which IT May Be

A peculiar feature about poslam, the
new skin discovery, is that no one Is
asked to buy it without first sending to
the Emergency Laboratories, No. 30 West
Twenty-fifth street, New York city. for
AN experimental sample and applying
same to an affected part of the skin,
about the size of silver dollar. 1t will
clear the spot so treated in "a hours-a
remarkable visual demonstration of its
powers.
While poslam has been mentioned prin-
cipally in connection with the cure of
eczema, the most stubborn of skin dis
cases. IL must be remembered that when
used for Itch. hives. plmples, blotches,
acne, itching feet. scaly scalp, chafing
of infants and similar minor skin trou-
bles, its action is all the more pro-
nounced, results being seen after an over
night application. As only small amount
of poslam is necessary to cure such cases

ficient, has been placed on sale at Ja-
cobs' Pharmacy and OF leading drug
stores in Birmingham and throughout the

NOTABLE DAY AT
THE UNIVERSITY
JUNIORS BEAT SENIORS IN FOOT
BALL GAME, IN WHICH MODI-
FLED RULES PREvAIL-coNcERT
BY JUDsoN GLEE CLUB.

University. January s.-(Special)-with
a class football game in the afternoon
between the elevens of the junior and the
senior classes, concert in Clark hall
in the evening by the Glee club of Jud-
son college, and a reception after the
concert in the beautiful exhibit hall of
the new geological building, yesterday
was a gala day for the university stu
dents
The football game was won by the
juniors by score of to 0, under the
regular system of scoring and by a score
of is to 2 under the modified system
as adopted by the Southern Intercol-
legiate association at meeting of the
rules committee recently held in At
lanta. The game was played under the
rules modified as suggested by the South
ern Intercollegiate Athletic association,
and much of the interest in the contest
centered in the working of these changes.
The game was divided into quarters of ten
minutes with rest of five minutes be-
tween each; seven men were required on
the offensive line of scrimmage at all
times; no advancing was allowed on a
forward pass after the bali was received
and no penalties for incompleted forward
passes were inflicted. The most obvious
results of these changes are slowing up
of the game and deprivng 1t of bril-
liancy and variety
The next of the class games will be
played next Friday afternoon, the oppos-
ing teams being the sophomores and the
freshmen. The winner of this contest
will then battle with the juniors for the
interclass championships.
The concert rendered by the Judson Gee
club was a notable musical event here
for from the opening to the closing num-
Der 1t was a finished performance. The
ensemble work Of the entire club and
of the smaller choruses was splendid, and
the soloists did some beautiful work. The
unquestioned feature of the concert how
ever, was the singing of Mornings Leg

Miss Hightower. Miss Thompson, Miss
Dickinson and Miss NJ. williams. 1t was
above criticism, for 1t left nothing to
