Your child isn't naturally cross, irri-

the tongue; if coated, it means the lit
tie one s stomach is disordered, liver in
active and its thirty feet of bowels
clogged with foul, decaying waste.
Every mother realizes after giving
delicious "Syrup of Figs" that this is
the ideal laxative and physic for chill

ones tender stomach, liver and bowels
so effectually, besides they dearly love
its delightful fig taste.
For constipated bowels, sluggish liv-
er, biliousness or sour, disordered stom-
ach, feverishness, diarrhoea, sore throat
bad breath or to break cold, give one
half to a teaspoonful of "Syrup of
Figs" and in few hours all the clog
ged up waste, sour bile, undigested
food and constipated matter will gent
ly move on and out of the system with
out gripping or nausea, and you will
surely have a well, happy and smiling
child again shortly.

Maude, years old, daughter of Mrs.

"Oh, Auntie, see the beautiful nun in

The sisters merely nodded their heads
and clasped their hands in awe. Then
it occurred to the women to call their
mother, the widow, and Mrs. Hart
awoke Mrs. Lavery with the statement
that her daughters wished her to come

When he had satisfied himself he made
the sign of the cross and rushed from

remained at the foot of the bed and the

Mrs. Barbee said today:

1t is well recognized fact among
physicians today, that the greater part
of all sickness can be avoided by keep
ing the kidneys working properly.
This is even more important than for
the bowels to move regularly, because
the kidneys and bladder are the filter
ers and sewers of the body. If you
suffer with pains in the back or sides,
bladder or urinary disorders, lumbago,
rheumatism, dizziness, puffy swellings
under the eyes or in the feet and an
kles, nervousness, tired and worn-Out
feeling, or any of the many other symp-
toms of kidney trouble, don't neglect
yourself another day and run the risk
of serious complications. Secure an
original package of Croxone, which
costs but trifle, take three doses a
day for few days, and you will be
surprised how entirely different you
will feel

THE SAFETY OF TRAVEL

From Leslie's.
Travel never was safer than it Is to-
day. The danger by accident on sea or
land has been minimized almost to the
lowest degree. A remarkable calculation
was recently made, based on statistics of
accidents and mileage travelled on Ameri-
can railroads. 1t was found that the
average railroad trip is "a miles. Taking
the fatalities on our railroads and divid-
ing them among the number of miles COW
cred, we find that one could take 2,275. 900
such trips safely before he would meet
with an accident. If a traveller were to
ride out this number of journeys, taking
two a day for every business day of the
year, he could travel for 1900 years be-
fore his accident policy would be due.
Accidents sea are still less liable to
occur, and in these days of wireless tel
egraphy ocean travel Is safer than any
other kind One writer says there is more
danger in one day of an accident to a man
who walks the streets of any busy city
than there is in six months travel by
railroad or years travel by steamship.
In other days, timity restrained the de-
sire Tor travel with great majority OF
with the dangers lessened to such an ex-
their own and foreign lands. But now,
with the dangers lessened tot such an ex-
tent that they have become a negligible
factor. timidity does not enter into the
matter. Some of the timid ones believe
that they are safer while travelling than
while at home.
The strict requirements regarding safety
appliances on railroads and on the sea,
established by governmental regulations,
have had no little to do with the safety
of the traveller. The promptness with
which the railway and steamship man
ayers accept all the latest safety devices
emphasizes the fact that they are ex-
tremely anxious to remove all possibility
of danger to their patrons.

Birmingham's Exposition

The Birmingham Ad club, known
far and wide as booster Tor this city
and district. has done no greater work
in its organized capacity than in get
ting up an exposition of homemade
products. 1t is really the most far
reaching work that the club has un-
dertaken, and it is most gratifying
to note the genuine public interest
that is taken in this initial affair as
evidenced by the large crowds in daily
attendance. The exposition closes to-
night.
Between 40 and so Birmingham
concerns have made exhibits. For a
first attempt at an exposition of pure
ly cal products-commodities made
in Birmingham-it is not only highly
oreditable, but it has surpassed all
expectations.
Next years exposition will be held
on larger scale. Instead of so there
will be 100 or more exhibitors. The
future expositions should be kept open
at least two weeks. While the object
should always be educational, there
should be some good amusements. A
high class band concert should be a
feature. The Ad club is certainly to
be congratulated on it's efforts at the
prese1t time. Next year it will have
the ready and united support of the
entire business community.

Holmes was right. Details are of the

the not prominent village of Coapke,

hung a sign conveying the enticing
information that miss Emily Lawson

Wilson Brown Dead

Few men had such wide circle OF

Wilson r. Brown, whose death oc-
Cured in New York yesterday. Less
than month ago Mr.. Brown was
watching tenderly at the bedside OF
his brother, William CARROT Brown
the distinguished editor and man OF
letters, who passed quietly away, far
from his old Alabama home. Little
did his friends think then that Wilson
Brown was so soon to follow his
brother to the grave. The news of
his death was received with sincere
regret by vast number of citizens.
Wilson Brown was man of bril-
liant mind and large business ca
pacity. He had been very prominent
in the public life of this state. He
was a felicitous speaker and charm
ing companion. His business inter-
ests had kept him in New York dur
ing the past three years, but he loved
Birmingham, and his Birmingham
friends we're truly devoted to him.
His death will be mourned throughout
the state.
