difficulty. The original Thomas,
when he doubted, found no condemna-

/ would suggest to you, however,
that you drop your text, and borrow
words from that man who said to
Jesus: Lord, l believe; help Thou

Senator Bacon Dead

Although Georgia's senior senator,
Augustus o. Bacon, was in his seventy
fifth year his death yesterday after
a brief illness startled the south. The
veteran statesman was the democratic
leader in the Senate and chairman of
the foreign relations committee.
Senator Bacon was al officer in the
Confederate army and was one of the
few members of the national legisla-
ture whose active life began in ante
bellum days. He was first elected to
the United States Senate in 1894. A
lawyer by profession and student of
government his influence in the Sen
ate was felt from the start.

When Pennsylvania was reluctant
to adopt the constitution and even re-
sorted to breaking methods
Webster scathed the secessionists with
the eloquence of Burke and the scorn
of Junius. His efforts saved the day.

the real birthday of our constitution,

New Federal Patronage

While the extension of the civil service
law has greatly limited federal patronage,
there will be many highly desirable Of
fices to be filled under the new banking
and currency act.T said L. 7. Shepherd
of Philadelphia
There will be no less than eight fed
eral reserve banks. There will probably
be u, the maximum number authorized.
Each OF these banks will have a number
of officials on good pay, to say nothing
of many clerks. AS / am not interested
in the patronage question: / do not know
whether or not the clerks will come with
in the civil service appointment rules.
But the officials will be appointed outside
of such rules. In other words, the demo-
cratic administration will have such de-
sirable patronage at its disposal, which
is most agreeable fact to those demo-
Gratis like myself who think the so-called
merit system has been somewhat over
worked. Philadelphia is almost sure to
have one of the federal reserve banks, and
many democrats there are already fixing
their eyes on the local offices to be filled.
suppose 1t is the same way in Birming-
ham and other cities trying to secure a
federal reserve bank"

future is unquestionably very bright,
said Bert Clifford, formerly of Birming-
ham, but row manager of the Point Clear
summer resort hotel
THE Gulf City has not grown as rapidly
as some Of the other southern cities, but
it has a great commercial future. and it's
population win increase fast within the
next few years.
Satsuma oranges are being grown in
the Mobile section with fine profit. There
is very enthusiastic Satsuma movement.
Everybody who has little land is setting
out Satsuma trees. | happen to know
man who planted on five acres of sandy
soil a Satsuma orchard, and his last sum-
mer's crop brought him $1,000.
while I am living on the gulf + still

This city is going ahead at a rapid rate,
and 1t will continue to do so. I remem-
ber in 1897, when my father leased the
Florence hotel, Birmingham had the repu-
tation of being a hustling town; but of
course it was small city then compared
with Birmingham of today. The changes
and improvements in recent years have
been remarkable, indeed.

CHILDREN INHERIT MORALITY

From Womans World for March
No one for a moment questions that
children inherit physical qualities from
their parents, but we quite easily forget
that moral qualities are also inherited.
Parents, apparently intelligent, never
seem to realize that their children are
composite reproductions of themselves,
added to some peculiarities of ancestors
and some originality of their own.
During the early years OF the ehild's
life he grows in the direction his parents
lead or drive him. He is never again
entirely free from the efforts of this
leadership, whether good or bad. And
isn't 1t true that fathers and mothers
can only train their children Alright when
they have high ideals for themselves?
We all know-and most of us forget
that the habit of obedience is formed as
any other habit is, by constant practice.
1t is absolutely Indispensable to strong
moral sense. The lack of it leads to all
kinds of bad conduct and self indul-
gencies OF course, If we are to preserve
anything like order in community the
individuals must obey the laws. To most
people this comes natural, the fact that
a law exists being sufficient reason why
it should be kept. There are always some
people, though, who find it very difficult
to conform to the regulations, no matter
how salutary.

Gently invented insulated cloth which

mas been found to give sufferers from
these diseases much relief and the prob-
lem has been to provide the heat for To-
eai applicatlon without making the rest
OF the body uncomfortable Numerous
electric devices have been invented for

peihs an electric mat which can be at

aiter many others had failed. The chief
obstacles to be overcome in the manufac-
ture OF insulated cloth were imperfect in
sulation, which made the fabric dangerous
to Wearers, insufficient resistance TO wear

the Herrgott fabric seems to meet all
requirements. The conductors form an
integral part of the fabric without de.
tracing from its fexibility. On account
of its resistance to oxidation, nickel is
the metal used for this purpose and the
cloth is SO made that there is no danger
of the wearer receiving an unexpected

Reproduction of Animal Life

DR.. Martin Fisher of the biology
department of the University of Gin
cinnati stated in a recent public ad-
dress at meeting which was held in
honor of DR.. Wolfgang Ostwaid of
Leipzig university, that animal life
has been actually reproduced by chem
ical reaction and gave technical ex-
planation of the method. The theory
of the artificial reproduction of hu-
man life has one of its greatest ex-
ponents in the person of DR.. Ostwald,
who is internationally famous for his
researches in chemistry and biology.
1t was DR.. Ostwald who reproduced
in his laboratory the living organism
of the sea urchin solely by artificial
means, an achievement which at
tracted worldwide attention, not only
among scientists but among many
other people, to whom the topic is al
most equally absorbing.
DR.. Ostwald claims that any form
of animal life can now be reproduced
in the laboratory to a limited extent,
and that when more thorough knowl-
edge Of the process is obtained there
will be no limit to the extension of this
phenomenon.
The reproduction of animal life,
with vague dream of some day being
able to reproduce human life, is be-
yond all question one of the most
fascinating subjects now being consid-
cred by men of science. 1t has been
the theme of highly imaginative and
oftentimes grewsome romanoes, while
some of the theories advanced have
been so wild as to be almost prepos-
ferrous. Nevertheless, beginning
seems to have been made, and at some
time in the dim and distant future
human beings may be manufactured in
laboratories by hoary men OF science,
with hair, eyes and complexion to
suit"

layman.
AT conference of home agency
secretaries. held at the Bible house
in New York, the officers of the nine
agencies were present Their work
covers nearly all of the United States.
They reported for the year 1913 a re-
markable advance in the circulation
of the scriptures. The total reaches the
figures of 1876, 459 volumes. This takes
no account of the general circulation
of the American Bible society in for
eign lands, to the trade, or the circu-
lation effected by the auxiliary and
other local Bible societies. The total is
an advance of 2S0,22 volumes in these

City Beautiful

'I am glad that the city commissioners
have made a special effort to induce
householders to keep their back yards
clean as well to keep their lawns and
little grass plots in good condition." said
an old citizen.
while those who live in the outlying
residential sections keep their premises in
good order all the year round, in the
downtown district it is next to impos-
sible to maintain green sward in the
spaces between the sidewalk and the
curbing. Still, an effort should be made
to keep grass growing in the spring and
summer in the space intended for sward.
The trouble is that so many pedestrians
are careless or are Indifferent to beauty
and walk across open grass spaces. Pee
pie should be more considerate / no.

by a West Indian cruise to the Tsla santa
