He is an old friend of Peruna, but he

is the pharmacy which provides the
healing drugs necessary, absolutely

To those doctors who might advance
the proposition that some who are able
to pay for the services of a physician
or surgeon will apply for the benefits
of this charity, it may be countered,
that any man or woman, who would
fitch from so worthy a cause, under any
preteXt whatsoever. would beat a doc

shall it be denied to the hundreds of
poor who are afflicted that relief, which

perchance some unworthy person may
impose upon the charitable institution?
ingham has many institutions to
be proud of. Her progressive spirit
should and will quickly respond to the
call for support of this practical char

measured two ways: One. the giving
relief to the sick, suffering, afflicted,
INDECENT poor; the other, aiding in the
practical work. in philanthropical
sense, making 1t possible to have to
degree sound, healthy school children.

Agricultural Exhibit Wins
First Prize at Fair

Arguments on Proposition to Abolish

Huntsville. October 25.--CSpecial)
Madison county has won the first prize
in agriculture at the Alabama Missis-
sippi fair at Meridian according to a
telegram received here last night. This
was the exhibit collected by George T.
Motz and which won first agricultural
award at the Alabama State Fair in
Birmingham this season. The exhibit
is composed of a large variety of pro-
ducts and shows the effects of diver
sified farming in this section. At Me-
rfdian the exhibit came in competition
with the Lee county exhibit which won
first agricultural award at the Tri-
State fair in Memphis.
The county commissioners have set
aside Tuesday, November 4, as a day

fundamental principles of banking.
This it was probable which Mr.. Mora
wetz had in mind and it may have been
this also which the members or the
Chamber of Commerce had in mind
when they voted unanimously on the
same daygthat Mr.. Morawetz testified
in Washington in favor of many of the
features of the present currency bill,
but in disapproval of certain other
features-these being for the most part
the very features that the American
bankers and Mr.. Morawetz disapproved
Among the resolutions adopted by the
Chamber of Commerce was one which
recommended that the members of the
federal reserve board receive as salary
at least $4,000 a year each. These
figures themselves carry the implica-
ton of what the Chamber of Commerce
regards as an essential qualification
for membership of that board If the
New York clearing house association
can afford to pay $4,000 year to an
officer whose sole duty is to make ex-
animation of the banks. it seems appro-
pirate that the federal government could
afford $4,000 a year to each MEMBER

high salaries If competent men are to
be induced to accept the place. One
resolution adopted by the Chamber of
Commerce Is in sympathy with the en-
tire tone Of the testimony of Mr.. Mora
wetz. That resolution urges national
banks to adopt a broad and unselfish
view of the general proposition and to
act in hearty cooperation so that sue
cess may be secured, hoping, of course.
that the bill will be adequately
amended.
