AN OLD, SOUTHERN MAINLY
By MARY NICE HoskINs

she first opened her eyes in Tuscumbia near Florence, she was handed to Aunt Jessie, who softly cuodled her close. and sung the songs that will forever finger In the heart of every true born southern woman While environment may mold the present, yet way down in the very soul of the southern woman there remains an intangible something that stirs and moves at the sound of the songs of the old south The matron of today knows of the old nanny songs under the thrall- dom of a beautiful heritage and the children of tomorrow will know them as q far away dream, in the which con- sciousness of the something they have missed, shadows the brightness of their sunshine.
 Of all the children Aunt Jessie Hart has assisted in this troublesome old world none ever possed a single fault-if you hear Aunt Jessie Hart tell it, but none ever measured quite up to Helen Keller, for like Abou Ben Adhem, her name leads all the rest
 During the night watches, when Aunt Jessie would be grooming the almost for gotten lullabys, in our home, she would pause during a moment of sleep for the little one and tell of that perfect June day, when all the world was attuned to the harmony of the universe when Helen Keller came to bless a home. No other
  the ownership with God-as does the first born, and. Helen Keller rounded out the fullness of married life. The pride of Aunt Jessie Hart that she nursed this little morsel of humanity, is immense of all fhe children who have found in her soft bosom pillow of sleep-her pliant arms a cradle of rest, none can compare to this one. As new born babe she possessed all the faculties of normal child. But if you attend to what Aunt Jessie says, she was a prodigy from the very beginning, and was miles and miles ahead of all other children, and she openly ayers no other child but Helen Keller would ever have been successful with such a handicap.
 Aunt Jessie, like other members of her race, enjoys few brief moments con versation with herself occasionally-once after long nights vigil, spent in trying to soothe restless, feverish newcomer she was heard to remark to herself, while looking at the mother in the home:
 T tell ye, one nanny is wuf CT cow pen full uv daddes."
 Aunt Jessie has the very highest con yiction of what is right or wrong One recent deed has proclaimed to the world, that while her face may not be white her soul is as white as the snow on an un- reached Alpine glacier.
 After awhile when the years become too many for this true-hearted soul who has given of her best those she loved, she will be laid away in the quiet city of the dead hearts will ache, tears will fall from eye lids unused to weeping, for all love Aunt Jessie Hart, and the memory of her kind deeds will finger in the heart of those who knew her best as the fra grance fingers in the sandal wood-repre- senting sweet service.

Water Issue Probably Will Not Be Conspicuous
 Factor in September
BOTH MEN ARE WELL
 KNOWN BY EVERYONE
Race Is Expected to Marrow Down Simply to Question of Fitness of the Rivals for
 Place
By HIGH W. ROBERTS

While the first political meeting of the present municipal campaign has been held, and the first political ad- vertisement has been printed, com paratively little interest has ben aroused in the race for the commission which Harry Jones will make against James Weather1y. Tentative headquar- ters have been opened by MT. Weather ly, and both he and his opponent have circulated their petitions in order to acquire the 500 signatures of qualified voters which are necessary before either will be formally recognized as candi- date.
 At the present moment the water question is discussed as the possible issue between the contestants. If the election was scheduled for August in- stead of September, that question would probably be fully developed until wa ter" would be made the issue.
 It is safe to predict, however, that the sole issue between the two will be one of personality and fitness.
 The Effect of Water
 In the first place, as stated, the date of the election is too rar away for the present excitement in regard to the water situation to continue at a height suf- ficient to maintain universal interest to the end. In the second place, the ques- tion of pure water and cheap water even the question of municipal ownership of the waterworks plant-is a matter of importance too great to be made the football of politics. Tn the third place, there is no vital difference in the position of the candidates. Both men favor pure water and cheap water, although they might differ as to the wiser and more expeditions method of obtaining the de- sired end. Neither man is the tool of the corporation, and should either prefer such charge against the other. 1t would rebound to his disadvantage.
 The present embroglio which has result ed from the attitude of the city on the one hand. and the company, on the other, will no doubt have an indirect effect on the result, in that it does furnish an in- sight into the executive and legislative qualification of MT. Weatherly. But it will not be the prime cause of his vic- tory, if he wins, or his defeat, if he loses.
 City Races Without Fun
 From the standpoint of popular amuse- ment, municipal campaign is always failure. There is great interest in the announcement of candidates and in the specialization of plans. When the lists are closed, however, interest wanes and there is no more fun until the returns are made
 There is reason why this Is true To begin with, the candidates are well known to the people before whom they are to necessary for the candidates to waste

Work of the Kidneys
Often Overloaded, They're Particular,

The kidneys have certain duties to perform and are kept constantly active in performing them To perfectly filter all impurities and remove uric acid from the blood Is some of the work of the kidneys. The work of the liver and bowels is also intimately connected with the kidneys work, and when they refuse to faithfully and fully do their part, the whole system becomes more or less affected, the kidneys are often involved and weakened.

Every town--not city, mind you-has sympathetic human landmark, with wrin- kled face and heart of gold, upon whom 1t is perfectly natural to rely in times of need or sudden emergency. Florence is the proud possessor of many good things, among which is the pre-emption right on Aunt Jessie Hart" who lives and moves and has her being in m humble home on the outskirts of the town.
 We meet with so few of the fast van ishing race, the regular "old timey dar- kie,' not the old nanny of before the war. but the veritable production of the nanny remebered by our stately ante bellum mothers, and told to the grand children of today with tenderness that hints of days redolent with lavender and yellow lace-Aunt Jessie Hart, whose services are indispensable upon the ar rival of every newcomer in the family, and to whom the reverence and love of the entire family is hers by right of loyal service, to this class Aunt Jessie Hart be- longs. Her services are not for strangers; she is an aristocrat, and wields the scep- ter in homes bearing the stamp of the We're de We're You can mark the pro- letariat from the patlician by following the steps of Aunt Jessie Hart as she starts out to pay a visit to her white follSs for her services are in such de- mand she will never under any consider alton consent to make her permanent home with any one family. This fully demonstrates her good horse sense, for dire confusion would reign in good old Florence-famiy feuds would be engen- dered, dire calamties threatened, if by golden promise or silver strategy she was ensnared into a positive stay at any one home. Very few big entertainments can be had in this town successfully without the presence of Aunt Jessie Hart, to do the work? Mercy alive, no indeed. Who ever heard of such a thing? At such a suggestion she will reply in amazement:
 ''Jes' lots an lots uv desc here new fangled niggers kin put on CT white cap 'en pass round sammiches and tea, but 'haint hairy CT one kin keep de white chillen but me"
 And this is true. With Aunt Jessie In the nursery, the fortunate hostess can sail around in her silks and laces, con scious all is well behind the closed doors, for every complaint will be headed off by her watchful eye; the baby in long clothes will be in her arms, but there will be the little human stairsteps listening with wide open eyes to the wonderful miracle of how 'Brer' Rabbit done loss his tail or his many maneuvers when he projected with Dat air tar-baby."
 On June 27, 1880, when all the world was knee deep in June, and the earth alive with growing things, little Helen Keller was placed in the arms of Aunt Jessie Hart, for Helen Keller belongs to Ala bama, also to Aunt Jessie Hart, for when

Long Campaign Unnecessary

It IS therefore unnecessary for the can didates to go to the expense of conduct ing a long campaign or a strenuous cam paign. It is certain that if they do they will fail to arouse the people to that pitch of enthusiasm and excitement which ticllles the vanity of the average poli- tieian.
 The indications now are that the race between MT. Weatherly and MT. Jones will be close. It is race certainly of doubtful outcome. MT. Weatherly will probably represent himself as the foe Of the waterworks company, and the ob- ject of that company's consuming fury.
 It would be nothing but natural should he do so. His friends will no doubt intimate that MT. Jones is the candidate" of the company because probably support him. Captain Hob son, as Is remembered endeavored to prove his charge that MT. Under wood was the candidate of the liquor interests because those engaged In that business in Alabama were opposed to Coptain Hobson. And even as Captain Hohson failed in his effort to make the people believe, so will the friends of MT Weatherly. The same result would obtain were Mir Jones to en- deavor to line MT. Weatherly up with anybody or any faction or any corpor ations against whom or which the peo- pie might for the moment be subject to prejudice.
 It Is unquestionably true that neith- CT of the candidates will be able to paint the other in colors dark and un- natural. The issue is one of personal ity and fitness. And there is marked division. At this moment there Is no means of indicating the result

COMMISSION MAY
 OVERRIDE BOARD Increased Assessments in Etowah Will Be PrObed
 by Tax Commission

Gadsden, July 25.--(Special )-Prevalent in certain circles about the courthouse is the belief that the state tax commis- sion will override the work done by the board of equalization in the matter of increased assessments. In many cases it is said. the increases made final have been mere shadows of those recommended In Attalla, where increases aggregating s1O0,- 900 were recommended ,an increase of $17500 was accepted on a compromise. It is said the state board will hardly sanc- ton this increase.
 School lunches for the children at cost is one of the striking recommendations made by Superintendent w. s. Griggs in a report to the board of education. It is claimed that food dispensed by street peddlers to school children often is un- wholesome. One of the interesting changes in next years teaching corps is the se- lection of M. w. o. Vance as principal of Disque High school, succeeding Pro lessor Jester A start in school garden ing has been made. and this work will be continued. The total cost of the schools for the year was $23, 262. .O5.

time in introducing themselves. In the scond place. the publication of campaign charges are received with indifference. The people, in advance, known whether or not the charges are true. It is inn possible to spring a surprise on the people in regard to an individual with whom they were reared. In the third place. there is never an issue in a municipal campaign An issue is matter of state on which the candidates are disagreed, a clear cut point of difference with each contestant admitting and defending the difference. Without an issue. there Is no opportunity for the people to enthuse over the man of their choice, or to abuse the position assumed by the man of the other peoples choice.
 The ensuing campaign will be no ex- ception to the rule Everybody in Bir- mingham knows Harry Jones and every body knows James Weatherly. It Is very probable that at this moment. practi- cally every man knows for whom he will vote Certainly there are not enough men lon the fence to change materially to effect, what is destined to be the re- enlt
