For a year Alabama has reposed un- Ger the watchful eye, of the nation
 When on last Monday, oscar W. Un- Gerwood administered crushing, a hu. miliating defeat to R. P. Hobson, the nation sighed a sigh of satisfaction and relief.
 But had Alabama failed in the crisis to rebuke hysteria, to crack the in Folent head of demagogy-in other words, had Alabam believed the charges pf Hobson, had Alabama failed to dis play Its resentment in that such base less charges had been preferred-the nation would have laughed-and justly bo-at Alabama

Cured of Drug Habit

Charles B. James, care Charles B. James Sanatorium Co.,, Memphis, Tenn: Dear Sir am feeling so much bet ter and so much more like living this morning that I concluded I would write you. telling you of my improve ment and how much happier we all are. When I went to your sanatorium for treatment I was using 15 grains of morphia Approximately per day The first dose of the drug. was given me by the family physician when l had typhoid fever-later l had pneumonia and morphia was again used, and as
 result I was left helpless drug user (could not sleep and only weighed about 40 pounds). and continued to use 1 1t until I was relieved at your sanato- rum. Now I weigh 190 pounds, sleep well, have good appetite and the family Is so much happier. I now feel 1t my duty to advise all such unfortu- mates tol take treatment and rid them selves of this soul-sapping. lfe-de- stroying drug. Strange to say. I never knew when l took the last dose of morphine. I suffered no pain on ac- count of its withdrawal and have suf- fered none since As a matter of fact my stay at your sanatorium was both pleasant and profitable. I found your sanatorium more like a pleasant home, where the patients are we'll fed and al-
 
 interested. We have a good many un- fortunates in my section, and I hope they will read this letter and go to you for relief.

 AIr. Johnstofn proved himself an eX- cellent general. He was able with docu- mentary evidence. with evidence of rec ord, to prove false every charge pre- ferred by Hobson He was able to call as his witnesses men in public life. leaders of democracy. strong spokes= men whe testified with apparent sat tsfaction to the chara cter and record of MT. Underwood. In this respect, NIT. Johnston was more resourceful than the leaders of the Hobson camp. Mir. John ston takes no credit for himself He declares that it is always easy to prove a charge untrue when fl is un- true on it's face"
 Mir. Johnston was ably assisted by R. E. |, Mel and R. B. Smyer. Frank A. 1ewett. in charge of the county cam paign, did brilliant work. At every point, his intelligent leadership had his opponents at a marked disadvantage.
 Mir. Musgrove's Mistakes l.. R. Musgrove of Jasper was Cap tain Hobson's manager. Mir. MusgroVe did splendid work for the captain in the Sixth district-especially in Wal lSer county. In that county he man aged so adriotly that the vote was larger than ever before, and Hobsons majority so large that the state laughed despite itself.
 But in other regards, MT Musgrove was failure. He was ineffective in the state. as whole. When he vis- ited Senator Clark of Arkansas and re- peated in Alabama the charge of Sen ator Clark, he was guilty of a distinct faux-pas. He did not calculate on the intelligence of the people of Alabama. He did not think that they would find Clark out.
 Mir Musgrove printed a Hohson cam paign book He made the mistake of printing it in Ohio. The contents Of | his book were but the repetition of Hobson's charges against Underwood. MT Musgrove wrote with battle ax

made to serve two entirely different ends
but here IL a coat that can be made with
a tunic to wear over plain skirt or with
out the tunic to wear over fancy skirt ard
the difference is so complete that it
scarcely would be recognized as funda-
mentally the same. The short double
breasted coat is much liked for the tunic
skirts and for the draped skirts that still
keep their place and the coat with the
open tunic is one OF the newest OF the sort
The model while it includes all the latest
features, is erninently simple one, for the
seams to the shoulders mean easy fit. The
tunic when used is joined to the lower
edge and the model will be found an
excellent one for all the fashionable serges,
for the broadcloth that is so much liked,
as well as for gabardine, wool velours
and the like
