Honest Medicines Versus Fakes

President Taft's recent message
suggesting an amendment to the
Pure Food and Drug law in it's re-
lation to prepared medicines, does
not refer to such standard medicines
as Foley's Honey and Tar Com
pound and Foley Kidney Pills, both
of which are true medicines care
fully compounded of ingredients
whose medicinal qualities are re-
cognized by the medical profession
itself as the best known remedial
agents for the diseases they are
intended to counterfeit. For over
three decades Foley's Honey and
Tar Compound has been a standard
remedy for coughs, colds and af-
fectiOns of the throat, chest and
lungs for children and for grown
persons, and it retains today it's
pre-eminence above, all other pre-
parations of it's kind Foley Kid
ney Pills are equally effective and

SOLITUDE OF THE lONDONER
There lie One City Where Man Need
Take Mo Part in Com
munal Life.

winston Churchill, who was the
guest OF the evening at the st. David's
DAY dinner at the Trocadero, drew a
picture of the solitude OF London.
Where else in the world" he asked.
nave you freedom such as you have
In London now? Here man, so long
as he does not break the law or have
practical jokes played on him. may
live, year after year, without ques-
lions being asked him as to where ne
comes from or what he thinks.
He may be richer than the dreams
OF ayarice or poorer than the night
mare OF poverty But no one is going
to make any inquiry, and unless he
seeks them for himself he will be
charged with no public duties. He
Will be asked to take part in no COM
munal life, he will have no neighbors,
and he will submit himself to the
judgment Of no circle of friends.
Why, the last people in the world
that Londoner knows are those that
live next door to him, so that his
manners, his morals, his probity, his
prosperity, his ruin, give no concern to
those who live at his side-no more
concern than their qualities and vir-
tues are to him.
In this mighty labyrinth of streets,
crowded as they are with the vastest
aggregation of human beings that the
history of the world can show, man
can enjoy a complete detachment from
all forms of civic and social obligation,
he may find in this country solitude
more effectively secure in the midst
Of this great city than will ever be al
Iorded to the wanderer in the steppes
Of Russia or the deserts of Sahara
London, think you will agree, has
produced freedom more complete,
and | think will add more slatternly,
than any that has yet been discover
able among men. London Express.

There's Truth In II.

Jack London, at publishers dinner
in New York, said OF industry:
THE boy who starts at the bottom
in some big concern thinks all he
needs to do is to work his very best,
and then his employer will raise him
up and up till finally, he is made gen.
eral manager.
AS a matter Of fact, the truth lies
nearer Lawson's case.
Lawson said the head Of a rich
firm, I have noticed that you work
with amazing zest No detail Of the
business is too small to escape you
No task is too hard You are the first
TO arrive in the morning, you are the
last to leave at"
"'Oh, thank you, sir; thank you,
sir cried Lawson, expecting his sal
airy to be doubled.
"Hence, lawson his employer
ended, with a snarling laugh, III ask
you to dig out the first of the month.
II is men of your caliber who get
business down pat and then go and
start rival establishments in the next
block

EUROPEAN NATIONS
 STOP NEGOTIATING

Paris. August 21.-Although negotiations between France and Germany looking to a settlement of the Moroccan dispute have been temporarily suspended. the attitude of the French foreign office is that set clement will be arranged ultimately if in- exhaustive patience and moderation on the part of France can bring 1t about. Public opinion appears to trust the gov ernment implicitly. Newspapers are cau- tious in their comments to a degree rare in France. They refrain because of a de- sire to not embarrass the government from emphasizing in the least the quiet military preparations being made steadily in consequence of ministerial orders.
 The naval ports are busy making ves- sells ready for active service. but this ac- tivity is explained as a preparation for the naval review off Tulon on Septem- Der 4.

JASPER EAGER FOR
 NATIONAL SCHOOL
Mass Meeting Saturday In Interest of National h.
 dustrial School

Jasper, August H.-(SpeciaD.-A mass meeting of all the citizens of Walker and adjoining counties will be held at the gust 26th. at 10 o'clock in the morn ing to devise ways and means for se- curing the necessary 5000 acre tract of the National Industrial school and to select the strongest committee that can possibly be found to go before the To- eating board of the Southern Educational bureau, which meets in Nashville August 29. Everything seems to be favorable to the location of the institution here. The officers of the bureau who went over the prospective locality last week seem favorabIy impressed with this place.
 The school is to be located August 29th and work will begin on the grounds and buildings within few moths If action is taken promptly and unitedly the school which win speedily become the greatest of it's kind in the United States will certainly be located within few miles of Jasper. All citizens have been re- quested to attend the meeting in Jas per next Saturday and lend aid to those in charge of the movement,
 The greatest opportunity for real edu- cationa progress along industrial lines that has ever come to the south, to Alabama, and especially to Walker and adjoining counties, is now presenting it. self. The Southern Educational bureau, which is composed of representative business and professional men from all parts of the country, and has almost unlimited money with which to operate, Is looking for a suitable location for a great national industrial school.
 This will be located somewhere in the south, and will be able to accommodate at least 5000 boys and girls, who will not only gather information from books, but will have the. best vocational training that brains and money can provide.
 The bureau is asking that 5000 acres of land, in a body if possible, be donated as an inducement for the location of this school Those in charge of the movement have already secured about one-half of the required 5000 acres, and have called the meeting to devise means of acquiring the other half.

 Quite a number of men who rank high in the agricultural. live stock and poultry world have been secured as lecturers for this course, and the rail- roads, anpreciating the value of such schooling, have granted low rates to and from Starkville.
 Prof. James Rice of Cornell will talk on poultry, as will also Mrs. H. c.

ARRESTED AND HAND CUFFED IN CHURCH
Man Then Escapes-Cull- man Republicans
 Have Split

Culman, August 21.-(SpeciaD John Bright and Charley Harris, deputies un- der Sheriff Bryce entered church house six miles north of Holly Pond. yesterday and arrested Tom Plunkett, young man of that community, charged with a serious offense. The officers en- tered the church while the services were in progress and placed the handcuffs on the young man and carried him on the outside while they proceeded to search him.
 They had not more than gotten well started in this work than Plunl1ett jerk ed loose from the officers and ran off through the woods and was soon out of sight of the officers carrying with him the handcuffs which had been placed on hls hands. The young fellow is still at large and has not been heard of It is said that he has several charges against him and the officers are securing the country for him.
 The remains of Jonathan H. Kinney, aged 76 years, a highly respected cit- zen of Cullman who died very suddenly at his home at 9 o'clock Saturday night, were inferred this afternoon in the Prot estant cemetery, Rev. z. A. Bowling conducting the services from the resi- dence.
 The deceased was an influential citizen and his friends are numbered by the hundreds in this and other counties. He is survived by his widow and seven sons.
 The pallbearers were Dr. A. P. Martin, Dr. w J. Cottingham. Dr. L. Hays, George H. Parker, c. w. Hamin and M. H. Bogue.
 A split between the Cullman county republicans is almost inevitable. At a meeting here Saturday afternoon pur- suant to a call from County Chairman John F. Sufferer. almost everything pre- vailed except harmony. It Is said that this was the most antagonistic meeting of the party ever held in the county.
 The main fight In this county is over the chairmanship. MT. Sufferer has held that place for the past several years, and for some reason a number of prom inent republicans sought to oust him. At the meeting Saturday evening 1t is said that Chairman Sufferer refused to dvulge the list of the committee select ed at the beat conventions held over the county some few days ago, and for this reason many of the most prominent republicans are very indidant. MT. Sut- tereh, however. was reelected
