 COMMON IN CITY
Remarkable Scientific Rem- edy Takes City by Storm.
 Many Testify

MT. (. F. Dunn of 5l7 North Twen- ty-first street, adds his name to the scores who have given public praise to 'Rhubaral' pronounced oo-bur-allJ i. the new tonic medicine and general health builder now being introduced in Birmingham. Regarding this prep aration MT. Dunn said:
 T have been ailing for years with stomach trouble and nervousness as we'll as being generally run down. Work was an effort as I had little en- ergy, vitality or ambition; my appetite was poor and my food did not digest properly for with stomach pains. gases and biliousness l felt miserable and found no happiness in life. This has gone on for the last four years in spite of all the treatment I have had and the medicine l have taken until about a week ago when I obtained bottle of RhubaraP of which l had heard a great deal.
 This wonderful medicine has given me new health, for all my distressing symptoms are gone and I feel like a new man and even my friends have re- marked at the improvement In my ap- pearance. I state this for the benefit of sufferers like I used to be-
 The health representative who is in- troducing "RhubaraP' in Birmingham at Averyts drug store. 109 North Twen- tieth street. made the following state ment yesterday: I am giving scores of tired, worn-out, half sick people suf- fering from all sorts of symptoms Of modern ailments, a small glass of "Rhubarar' free simply that they may learn it's pleasant taste-they do not doubt its action to restore them to health for it is guaranteed to do so or purchase price refunded. Each day many who have taken test return later to buy one or more bottles, show ing some effect must have been felt This preparation was invented to com bat all modern ailments due to the rush and strain of city life, the gener- al symptoms of which are: Headaches dizziness, weak memory, susceptibility to colds, poor circulation and lassi- tude.
 'RhubaraI' positively removes this condition. Many so-called cases of kid ney, liver and bladder trouble vanish with it's use. It is free from all nar- cotics. opiates or harmful drugs It con tains the wonderful medicinal herb Turkish rhubarb, grown only in Asi- stic countries and Is totally different from American rhubarb.
 Averyt's chain of drug stores here and in Pratt City, Ensley, North Bir- mingham sell "Rhubaral" as does Ad- ans drug store, Patton Pope and all other leading druggists. Bessemer agents, the Fulton Drug company. Dos -Northington company are wholesale distributors

I summoned the police and the coroner: also an undertaken.
 'As to the circumstances whereby Had dock was hung, I know nothing of them but from statements made on the scene it seems that ThomaA HaddoclS came in the grocery by the rear and stum- bled. Tn stumbling blindly forward his loose neck scarf is supposed to have caught in the iron staple and he checked to death.'
 Coroner Charles L. Spain stated at Il o'clock last night tha, he would thor oughly investigate the affair this morn- ing and that he had deputized an un- dertaker last night to attend to all pre- linninary arrangements.

PRIZE FOR THE SCIENTIST
Discovery OF Skull Thousands Of
Years Old Has Stirred the Men
Of knowledge.

In the Technical World magazine
We read that skull was found lately
near Los Angeles that is probably sew
eral thousand years old. There is a
bed of pitch just outside the city
which somebody says Is like a 30-acre
sheet of tangle-foot fly paper ranging
from six inches to several feet in
depth. Even today little wild crea-
tures-Tabbits, birds or gophers-be-
come entangled In the pitch and die
there, and this has been going on
thousands of years, probably.
II bird flies down close enough to
the asphaltum to be trapped, so the
monsters of long ago were caught and
held there. The quality OF the ma
terial is such that 1t preserves every
thing that Is buried there, and skele-
tons have been found in perfect condi-
ton.
The skeleton Of the saber-toothed IT,
ger with the long curved teeth that
gave II the name was found here, the
giant sloth, camel, a great wolf, a
small antelope md huge bird of prey
called the teratornis. The latter was
found near the skull just discovered.
and because scientists know that the
bird became extinct many thousands
Of years ago, they can Judge some
thing Of the age Of the skull. The
skull is smaller and fatter at the back
than a mans skull of today. and the
find has excited the scientific students
Of California.
