Thin Folks Who
 Would Be Fat
Increase in Weight Ten Pounds
 or More
\ .Pbysic4an's Advice

I'd certainly give most anything to be able to fat up few pounds and stay that way" declares every excessively thin man or woman. Such a result is not impossible, despite past failures. Thin people are victims of mal-nu- triton, condition which prevents the fatty clements of food from being taken up by the blood as they are when the powers of nutrition are normal In stead of getting into the blood, all the fat and flesh producing clements stay fn the intestines until they pass from the body as waste.
 To correct this condition and to pro- sduce healthy. normal amount of fat the nutritive processes must be artif- cially supplied with the power which nature has denied them. This can best be accomplished by eating a Sargol tab let with every meal. Sargol is a scien- tific combination of six of the best strength giving. fat-producing elements known to the medical profession. Taken with meals, 1t mixes with the food and turns the sugars and starches into rich ripe nourishment for the tissues and blood and its rapid effect is remarkable Reported gains of from ten to twenty five pounds in single month are by no mems infrequent. Yet it's action is per fectly natural and absolutely harmless Snrgol is sold by Averyt's Chain of Stores. Central Drug Store, Golfers Ensley Stores. Averyts North Birming- hem Store, Madison Pharmacy, Pratt City Store and other good druggists everywhere and every package con- tins a guarantee of weight increase or money back.
 Can tLon:-While Sargo1 has produced remarkable results In the treatment of nervous indigestion and general stom- ach disorders, it should not, owing to it's remarkable flesh producing effect, be used by those who arc not willing tn increase their weight ten pounds or more.

Montgomery, January 12.-(Special) ) Judging from resolutions introduced fin the senate and house this morning, there is little question but that the legislature is planning to prevent a. repetition of the wholesale appropriation of money which characterized the administrations of the preceding and present governor.
 In the senate MT. Lusk of Marshall in- troduced a resolution providing that be- fore any bin carrying an appropriation could be acted upon by the senate 1t would have to be reported by the com mittee on finance and taxation. In the past, it happened, according to explana- ton, that certain bills were referred to certain special committees regarded as favorable to the contents of the bills, and were favoraby reported, whereas the finance committee, acting simply on the merit of the bills, might have returned an unfavorable report. Another way in which the resolution will serve a good purpose, according to those who support It. is that it will enable the finance com- mittee to keep track of all moneys ap- propriated.
 In the house Representative Stringfellow of Barbour introduced resolution pro- viding for the appointment of joint committee of five. the duty of which shall be to inquire into the financial condition of the state, having an eye open. also, to the possible revenue for the next sue eeeding years. The object of this resolu- ton is to acquaint the legislature with actual conditions in order that appropria- tions to be authorized will be in ex- cess of the states income
 In this connection. it Is interesting to note that one of the first bills introduced was that of Representative Carnicha e of Coffee. which provides for an dppro- priation of s60,000 for the construction of an Alabama building on the site of the Panama exposition to be held in San Francisco in February The majority of the members of tue legis,a ture, it is be- lieved favors this bill. which was pre- pared in accordance with an Age-Her- aid editorial, and the consensus of opin- Ion is that In essential parts it will be en- acted into law.

John A. Rogers of Gainesville, Sumter county's representative and scientific farmer, will grow next year on his plan tation no cotton
 Heretofore Mir. Rogers has grown on the average, 1000 bales a season. In re- gard to this matter, MT. Rogers said to- night:
 T will grow no cotton next year. have instructed my tenants to grow none. have signed a contract with them in which I agree to pay certain prices for food crops, it being especially provided that if at any time the market price Is hi gher than the contract price, they may sell elsewhere.
 ''W tn the food crops grown I intend to feed cattle and hogs. [ believe that eventually l will make good with this scheme. At any rate, we lose money when we grow cotton, and as the boil weevil n my section will be voracious next season. the cotton which is grown in lesser acreage than usual will simply be more piuably at the mercy of the weevl.
 There is no question but that we can make money by raising fine cattle and hogs. We should not be dependent on cotton. We have talked in this vein for a number of years, and for one am going to aet. Therefore next year instead of

MIR. M'NEILL EXPLAINS

Rev. II. H. McNeill stated to the rep resentative of The Age-Herald today that during his visit to Montgomery h, had not related in sepulchral tone the incident wherein it was charged that thugs burned his home and beat up his little" boy.
 The Age-Herald correspondent re- piled that inasmuch as MT. McNeill had so stated, he would admit that he was mistaken in his reference of the day be- fore.
 MT. McNeill seemed to be aggrieved in tha the adjective "sepulchral' was employed. Inasmuch as anything or any word growing out of "sepulchre" is dis tressing in it's significance. it is prooa ble that a wiser selection might have been made. A friend has suggested that Funeral might have been preterable'

Senator From Hawaii Proposes
Plan For Special Fund to
Protect Property

Territorial insurance for the prop
erty owned bg the territorial govern
mcnt is a feature proposed by Sen
ater Metzger in S. B. 14O, introduced
by him Tuesday. Explaining it yes
terday the Hilo Golon said that at
present a destructive conhagration
which might rae any Of the govern.
ment buildings or wharves would
bring a total loss with no funds at
hand to cover il.
IL the armCry or capitol should be
destroyed, for instance. the only way
in which its reconstruction could be
authorized would be by a special SEES
sion Of the legislature, a proceeding
in itself which would nearly double
the cost or total loss to the territory.
His bill would authorize the terri
torial treasurer to set aside this year
special fund Of $4,000 from the gen.
eral fund, placing it in territorial
insurance fund" Each succeeding
year the treasurer would be required
to add $4,000 to this amount until it
reaches a total OF $25O,00O. The gov
ernor would have authority to appro-
pirate from the special fund at any
time such amounts as are deemed ne
cessary for the repair or reconstruc
ton Of edifices destroyed by fire or
other casualty.
