but the articles eminating from your pen recently. on the damage suit lawyer, are so appropriate and set forth the iniquity of that class so vividly that l beg that you permit me to ask you to give the public one more and give the remedy The lawmakers of the state long since undertook to provide against violators of both the law and the ethics of the pro- fession by statutory enactmenta In the code, section 297s. ct seq, the oath of an attorney is given, which must be sub scribed to before license is issued to the applicant to practice law
 Code 6312 defines unlawful acts and provides for disbarment and makes this also criminal.
 "Coue, section 29S6 defines the oath and makes unlawful to solicit or encourage litigation for personal motives or gain and lucre. In every judicial district there Is a solicitor general whose duties are defined. Acts of violation of the law should bebrought before the grand juries and the party indicted. If this officer would do his duty such acts as you give ac- count of in your Sunday article in The AgN Herald Crebruary 19 should be in- dictable, and besides disbarment proceed ings, also an indictment for obtaining money under false pretenses and fraud would lie and be easily proven.

It does not matter how greatly the ethics of the pro- fession may be violated no action is taken because everybodys business is nobody's.
 How sadly decadent this code of ethics has become. as compared to that which maintained 40 years ago. when such men giants in the profession-as Chiffon, Watts. Judge Yancy Rice of the Mont gomery bar, or Morgan, .Pettus or Selma, or the Walkers of north Alabama were the representatives of the Alabama bari
 Tn their time no apologist nor de- lenders of shysters would have been tolerated. Neither was the class recog- nized. Birmingham has grown, despite the shyster, but how much. faster would 1t grow if he was eliminated? The repu- tation of the bar certainly would be cleaner, as well as the percentage of damage suits be lessened.
 Again asking you to pardon me for suggesting even this mode of hitting him again. l do so as a nonresident, but well wisher of Birmingham. Very respect fully, "J. K. BARTON"

! CAN'T BE SEPARATED
Some Canaan People Have Learned How to Get Rid of Both.

Backache and kidney ache are twin brothers.
 You can't separate them.
 And you can't get rid of the backache until you cure the kidney ache.
 If the kidneys are we'll and strong, the rest of the system is pretty sure to be in vigorous health.
 Doan's Kidney Pills make strong, healthy kidneys.
 James o. Snyder, Canaan, Conn.,, says: "Doan's Kidney Pills proved satis- factory in my case. My kidneys were disordered for some time and often had difficulty ill passing the kidney secretions, When the trouble was at it's height. my back ached intensely and after I stopped it was hard for me to assume an erect position. Doan's Kid ney Pills were finally brought to my attention and procured supply from John l.. Thurlough's Drug Store, In a short time after beginning their use, l received relief. I take pleasure in reoom- mending them to other kidney sufferers. "
