said, has now reached the sum of

Who Is Benefited By Weatherly $

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
 Have you heard of any one who has been really benefited by Commissioner Weatherly'e Fourth avenue produce mar ket? This is not a silly question. l want some information. If there are any who are really henehed by it, I want to know who they are, where they live and how thew are benefited This is a proposition that concern all the people, and many of them are harmfully affected by 1t. have chosen to cali it Weathery's market be- cause I think he is the great majority who patrorizes and appreciates it.
 The country peddler don't like it. be- cause he cant sell his produce, the people will not come to Fourth avenue to buy it and he is not allowed to take it to them The city peddler don't like it because ne Lac to do too much waiting On the corner" The housewife don't like it because she can get nothing to eat in the way of good fresh country vegetables. The average housewife cannot afford 10 fix up every morning and journey away down on Fourth avenue just for the priv ilege of paying "only cents for nick els worth of turnips, or "only nickel for cents worth of collards. Many of them would have to lose at least two hours from their house work and take good long exhilarating jaunt just in order to have a little good, wholesome country pot liquor for dinner. Many of them are not physically able to make the daily Journey to MT. Weatherly's market. Many who live too far to walk are not finan- cially able, and there are thousand and one other indispositions which confront the good housewives while the greens" are all stored on Fourth avenue.
 Besides all these hardships and incon- veniences to the people at large, l think his market crowds up Fourth avenue too much. Why. have seen three or four people stanlng around there at one time. Most of them, however, were real estate men, trying to swap the country ped

dler "city property for his garden spot and some difference
 NOW, I know Mir Weatherly is a man of good, sound judgment, and I think he is well supplied with what we call good horse sense, which, by the way, is most yaluable asset. I am sure that his inten- tions are good. But he, like few others, has made one mistake, and since it has proven to be mistake, it has absolutely no defense Ween MT. Weatherly stopped all the peddlers from delivering vegeta- bles to the good women at their doors in the early morning. and said by the law that the industrious peddler should hang out with his hands in his pockets on Fourth avenue till 10 o'clock, and that the busy, rushing housewife should turn all her housework loose-"just drop every thing"-and journey down to that par ticuar spot for vegetables, or do with out he made a mistake for which he will never obtain pardon until that act is re- scnded.
 This Fourth avenue market can have but one possible result as to prices and quality, lnd that is this: If it holds out, the country peddler will not be here next year to trouble the officers of the law, WnO are fGN scouting lne tONn Oil liiS fastest vehicles known to man the mo- torcycle) n search of him. And as con- sequence, We will be eating old stale, wilt ed, shipped vegetables at higher prices than we should pay for good fresh home raised country products. Now, l don't t claim to understand the theory in MT Weatherlys market proposition; but l do not think it takes a prophet or even telescope to see the result. The country peddler, if allowed, could sell out his load at reasonable prices before he gets to Fourth avenue But as it is, they are so handicapped that they are thoroughly dsgusted at Birmingham as a market for their products, and they promise me that they will not infringe upon our rights as an up to date city any longer than their present supply lasts. Can this be MT Weatherly's desire? l think not And as I claim to be as big hearted as he is, l am anxious to help him out of this predicam ant. He didn't go to do 1t, and am sure he will appreciate 1t if we will help him out just this one time. As I all the peop'e of the city. and all those in the country who raise vegetables for this market.
 So I suggest that every citizen, man or woman. who opposes the present sys- tenn of forcing all the vegetable wagons to stand on Fourth avenue until 10 o'clock instead of allowing them to deliver veg

SAVED FROM DEATH
 BY FAITHFUL DOG

Pensacola Fla, December I.-When the crew of the steamer Manteto, from Mobile, rescued Armand Olsen from the water of Pensacola harbor early this morning, they found him holding fast to his life companion, dog. Olsen was more dead than alive, and is not expected to recover from the exposure and exhaus- tion which followed the capsizing of his little sail boat last night. Olsen's craft was overturned near Deer Point light, and the necessity of taking care of his dog prevented any effort to right the boat. He was in the water four hours, but all the time the dogs head was held above water.

A Straightforward Talk to Sexually
 Weak, lmp0tent Men

This is a straightforward, honest, man to man talk to sexually weak and impotent men.
 The man with impaired vital sexual power Is sexual weakling. He is cut off from the complete, vigorous pleasure and usefulness which is every mans heritage. The number of men sexualy weak and to degree, if not con- petely impotent, is appallingly large. The man thus impaired, robust and strong though he apparently is, is weakling. The vital a black cloud.
 The impression prevails, and has rather been encouraged for years that impotency can- not be cured. Dozens of other human afflic tons were for years likewise declared incura- ble, but modern medical skill has narrowed the incurable ills to small margin-a thought for the man who has given up hope.
 To all men who are seHually weak; tell
