A Message to Thin,
Weak, ScrawnyFolks
An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 80 lbs. of
Solid, Healthy, Permanent Flesh.

Thin, nervous, undeveloped men and
women everywhere are heard to say,
Il can't understand why | do not get
fat. l eat plenty of food, neurishing
food" The reason is just this: You
cannot get fat, ne matter how much
you eat, unless your digestive organs
assimilate the fat-making elements of
your food instead of passing them out
through the body as waste.
What is needed is means of gent
ly urging the assimilative functions of
the stomach and intestines to absorb
the oils and fats and hand them over
to the blood, where they may reach
the starved, shrunken, run down It's
sues and build them up. The thin
persons blood is like a dry sponge
eager and hungry for the fatty ma
terials of which it is being deprived
by the failure of the alimentary canal
to take them from the food. The best
way TO overcome this sinful waste of
flesh building elements and to stop
the leakage of fats is to use Sargol,
the recently discovered regenerative
force that is recommended so highly
by physicians here and abroad. Take
little Sargol tablet with every meal
and notice how quickly your cheeks
fill out and rolls of firm, healthy flesh
are deposited over your body, cover
ing each bony angle and projecting
point. Bowditch- Webster Co. and 9TH
er good druggists have Sargol, or can
get it from their wholesaler, and will
refund your money if you are not sat
isfied with the gain in weight, it pro-
duces as stated on the guarantee in
each package. 1t is inexpensive, easy
to take and highly efficient.
Charlottesville Sargol has pro-
duced remarkable results in overcom-
ing nervous dyspepsia and general
stomach troubles, ii should not be TAX
en- unless you are willing to gain ten
pounds or more, for it is wonderful
flesh builder-AdV

HALL0MELL,
Much Sickness Among the
School Children birmingham
Deputy Sheriff Jones Sizes Up
LabeI--Gets Is Gals. Whiskey
Death OF Edwin D. Sherburne..The
Cemetery Assn TO Meet

During the winter term of school just
closed there has been much sickness
among the pupils. The attendance in
the one-room buildings was less than
SO per cent. Of the total enrolment in
those schools, and the absences were
in most cases due to sickness Only
one school of this type in our city re-
ported children not absent during the
term, namely, the Vaughan school in
which there We're three children who
were present every day. In the Maria
Clark and High school buildings the
percentage of attendance was higher
than in the other schools
There has been considerable pro-
gress shown in all departments of the
school work in spite of the large num-
Der Of cases of absence. 1t is to be
hoped, however, that q more regular
attendance may be maintained during
the spring term. The tests which have
been applied in the schools indicate a
decided advance over the work of pre-
vious years. Other tests will be APP
piled during the spring term and the
results will be made public.
The aim is to develop a method of
instruction that will make possible the
limitation from the schools of the sys-
tenn of boss rule" whereby the teach
err becomes a "task-master" and not
an instructor. The desire is to have
the teacher work with the pupils and
not for them; to have the pupils work
with the teacher and not for him.
And to carry this idea one step far
Their Il should be added that the parent
should work with the child and not for
him when he is required to do work
outside of school hours. Under this
system or method of instruction the
corps of instructors shall be able to
accomplish more for the boys and girls
and they in turn will accomplish more
for themselves than has been possible
heretofore.
Pupils not absent during the winter
term are:

EXEMPTION CONTEST

Speaker tomorrow and there is much
speculation as to TIE course his attack
on the bill will take. His friends do
not expect him to attack the Presi-
cent. Some Democrats believe he will
not refrain, however, from illusions
to political entanglements.
Discussion of the issue in the SEN
ate today was enlivened by Senator
James Hamilton Lewis of Illinois, who
pleaded for the Presidents cause. urg-
ing, however, a compromise, giving
the President authority to suspend
tolls. Thus he proposed to find some
intermediate channel between what
appears to be Scylla upon the one side,
and Charybdis on the other and to
prevent the party craft from striking
upon either promontory either to be
wounded or disrupted
Senator Lewis aroused mingled as

Heavy Fines in
Liquor Cases

Charles H. Gould, proprietor of the
second hand store where the raid was
made Saturday by Deputy Sheriffs
Potter and Bucklin and Marshal Dun
ton, was arraigned Monday forenoon
before Recorder Clason. After the
testimony was heard Gould was fined
500 and costs and so days in jail
County Attorney w. H. Fisher appear
ed for the State and Sheriff Colby
Getchell was present.
The story as told in the courtroom
reminds one of the old tale of the
monkey who got the cat to pull the
chestnuts out of the fire, which re-
suited in the cat getting scorched.
Deputies Potter and Bucklin and
Marshal Dunton testified as to the
finding of the liquor and arrangement
of the interior of the store. Witnesses
were summoned that showed that
Gould was tenant and paid the rent
and he was consequently held respon-
sible for the presence of the liquor.
James Jones, cab driver in the
city, was the next witness. He tes-
titled that r. F. Harmon had given him
a note Saturday afternoon when he
called at the Harmon home to be Civ
en- to Thomas Dick. This note stated
that Mr. Harmon was sick and needed
some whiskey and requested Mr.. Dick
to go to the Gould place and get some.
Mr. Dick complied with the requests
went to the store and secured the Ii
quor but before ne could take it to the
cab driver the place was raided and
the liquor found in Mr.. Dicks pos
session Mr.. Dick was evidently per-
fectly honest in his part of the trans
action and acted in good faith, but
as the liquor was found on his person
there was a warrant issued for him
and he suffered the penalty by being
fined 500 and costs.
In view of the recent activity of the
officers in this city it is believed that
Mr.. Dick was used as tool to get
portion of the liquor to safer hiding
place.

Glass of Salts if
Your Kidneys Hurt
Eat less meat if you feel Backachy or
have Bladder trouble.

Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their eff
forts to filter it from the system.
Regular eaters of meat must flush the
kidneys occasionally. You must re-
lieve them like you relieve your
bowels; removing all the acids, waste
and poison else you feel dull misery
in the kidney region, sharp pains in
the back or sick headache, dizziness,
your stomach sours, tongue is coated
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment; the channels
often get irritated, otliging you to get
up two or three times during the
night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a table,
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine and bladder
disorders disappear. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys
and stop bladder irritation. Jad
Salts is inexpensive; harmless and
makes a delightful cffervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then, thus avoid
Ing serious kidney and bladder dis
eases.-Adv.

Puts Blame on
Glynn and Senate

Syracuse, March BOT. C. Sweet,
Speaker of the state Assembly, ex-
pressed amazement in a statement is
sued here Sunday that Governor Glynn
should charge the Assembly with the
failure of the Legislature to pass
finance bills.
With the approval of the governor"
says the statement, 1.-The Democratic
Senate fixed the date for final adjourn
ment at noon on March 81 and the
Assembly concurred. The Senate con-
vened at 10 O'Clock in the morning and
Immediately took a recess. The Senate
did not reconvene until $50 o'clock at
night. Up to that time, more than nine
hours after the hour fixed for final adj
journment, the Assembly had received
no appropriation bills from the Sen
ate
THE failure of the Senate to meet
for the transaction of business was
due to the fact that the presiding Of
ficer and leaders of the Senate were
at a meeting in the executive cham
Der with the governor, Chairman Os-
born of the Democratic state commit
tee, .Bos' McCooey, 'Packy' McCabe
and other agents of Charles F. Muir
ply, during which, as shown by the
appointments sent to the Senate, the
governor surrendered completely to
Tammany Hall and bargained with the
Democratic Senate leaders for the con-
firmation of his appointees.
From $50 o'clock Friday night un-
til 100 o'clock on Saturday morning
the Senate marked time, awaiting the
Governors appointments, while the
important business of the state was
neglected In the mean time the AS
sembly appointed committees to wait
upon the Governor and the Senate no.
titled them that it had finished it's bus
ines sand was ready to adjourn. The
committee to notify the Governor was
denied access to him by the Governors
secretary, Notwithstanding the fact
that the Governor was in the Execu-
tive Chamber with the Democratic
state chairman and his Tammany con-
ferees discussing appointments which
should have been sent to the Senate
early in the session. that politics
might not interfere with the financial
business Of the state.
The Governor lays great stress upon
the anticipated cost of 100000 for an
extra session. This amount. or thrice
the amount. is but a fraction of the
amount which the Assembly bills will
save"
