Of Ear-Reachinr Importance

President Fairfax Harrison of the Southern Railway company, who sue ceeded the late W. W. Finley, has entered upon his duties with large vision and characteristic vigor.
 He would have been cordially vel comed here had he come merely on a tour of inspection, but his announce ment Monday that his company would begin construction immediately on terminals and engine and repair shops at North Birmingham costing fully S1, ,500,000 made him doubly welcome. The work will be done in fixed units, which indicates that additions will be made later on. Birmingham indus trial development goes forward rap idly these days, and while the author itative statement was made only in regard to s1,500,000 expenditure it requires no great imagination to see the Southern spending .$3,000,000 or S4,000,000 on terminal facilities here within the next five or six years.
 But total of $1, ,500, ,000 for term inal construction is fine starter It is indeed splendid fact. It certainly means much in the upbuilding of Bir- mingham and the Birmingham dis trict

HOW WOMEN LOST WHISPERS

From the New York American.
 Prehistoric man may have starved and beaten his mate and abused her in 1000 ways, but for one thing at least woman of today should be everlastingly grateful to the brute men of the past-they saved her from the nuisance of shaving.
 Whiskers are mans own fault. This is true because man can remove them, but it is not his fault that they persist in growing long after he is bald headed.
 There was doubtless time, 50000 or 100000 years ago, when women had as much hair on their faces as men. The sexes had not specialized to such an ex- tent as at present, and their differences were much less noticeable in all ways
 Ideals of beauty were doubtless crude, if they existed at all. If woman had any notions on male good looks they counted for snothing, as he and not she did the choosing. Through all the ages man has had one firmly fixed idea regarding Nde- sirablity in women. They must have youth.
 In stealing or purchasing bride the cave man invariably chose young girl. Whiskers are the most noticeable sign of maturity, and when a young woman's face became fuzzy her chance of obtain- ing husband was gone.
 Women who developed boards early in life were sure to be spinsters, while those whose facial hair sprouted late or feebly had an excellent chance. In fact, they were married whether they liked it or not.
 Through the generations man weeded out the bearded women, while there was nobody to perform the same cruel but kind service for him. He did his work so thoroughly that we now pay to see the occasional "throw-backs known as the bearded ladies' Quite often these are men dressed up as women

Federal Reserxe bank

T understand that the organization committee charged with the duty of 'regioning' the country and selecting cities for the federal reserve banks will be ready to make the awards by the latter part of this month, said F. r. Dorchester of Boston.
 l was in Washington recently and met number of prominent men who were greatly interested in the federal reserve question. It seems to be un- derstood that Boston, New York and Philadelphia will each have a federal bank. My guess had been that Balt- more would be one of the cities, but learned while at the national capital that Richmond. rather than Baltimore. would be selected Many persons seemed to think that Atlanta had been slated for one of the federal reserves but 1t appears now that Birmingham. being in the center of the region south Of the Ohio, will be a winner. From my own observation l would say that the federal reserve bank for this part of the country would be either in Louis vile or Birmingham

The Great White River"

The avalanche season has begun in the Alps, and many Swiss villagers are in peril of their lives. Perhaps the tourists who visit the Alps don't realize what menace to life and property the annual snowslides are, but the Swiss peasant knows, to his bitter cost. In an average year the avalanches and landslips number 5000 and it is not always possible to tell on what spot they will descend. Avalanches that follow the same course year after year present an easy problem. They can be guarded against and are frequently started by the peasants themselves by shouting or shooting, in order to get them out of the way, but the unexpected catas- trophes sometimes take a frightful toll of human life.
 Communes, villages and inhabi- tants unite to guard against the peril. The insurance companies make easy terms and the Swiss government grants a, large annual subsidy to en- able staff of engineers to take pre- cautionary measures. Forests are planted on exposed slopes and trenches and breastworks are con structed in districts threatened by the Great White River,' as the peas ants call the avalanche These guards are, however, pitifully inadequate when put to the test and thousands of Swiss villagers dwell from year to year in the shadow of death. Some of the more superstitious pray to the avalanches to be spared, while others struggle through the snow in the footsteps of their cure to pray for safety in the village church.
 People who live in land where a little high water and an occasional cyclone are the greatest perils to life and property, will hardly envy the lot of the Swiss peasant with huge masses of ice and snow poised in the mountain fastnesses above him, ready to be loosed by the slightest tremor and to rush dowpward with a terrific roar, burying whole villages beneath tons of ice and snow.
