CHIEF PAGAN FILES MONTHLY REPORT
Total of 1115 Arrests Made With S6O32 in Fines. Speeders Suffer

It shows a total of Ills arrests with $6OS2 collected in fines. Stolen prop erty valued at $S311 was recovered and returned to owners.

GEORGIA FARMER
 SAYS HE COULDN'T l DRINK HIS COFFEE
Says Hands Were so Shaky ]. and Trembly It Would
 Spill From the Cup

One of the strongest evidences of the rapidly growing popularity of Tanlac and of the wonderful results it is accomplish ing is the large number of letters that are being received daily from well-known men and women throughout the south.
 On yesterday alone, letters were re- ceived from three states from grateful users of Tanlac, and their statements are, indeed, remarkable.
 Among the number was the following 4 letter from w. F. Crawford well-known farmer who lives at Ocilla, Ga His let ter follows:
 'Mr G. F. Willis, Atlanta, Ga:
 Dear Sir-I suffered a general nervous breakdown, or that is what the doctors pronounced my case. I had worked hard all of my life till about a year ago. then l quit off
 T was very nervous and restless and couldn't sleep at night. My hands were 80 shaky and trenby l could hardly hold a newspaper steady enough to read 1t. When I would go to drink my cof- Ice my hand trembled so the coffee would shake from the cup.
 T bought Tanlac because I had heard so much good it was doing others in my condition and from the advice of my local druggist. After using two bottles of Tanlac l am now able to pass coffee to my mouth as good as anybody. My nerves are as steady as they were when was young man.
 I am now proud to recommend Tanlac 10 anybody suffering any nervous disturb snce whatever, because it has done me a world of good, and I think that it is the best medicine in the world, and I feel like everybody ought to know about It, that it might relieve other poor, ner- vous men and women.
 I am now "A years old and have been a farmer all my life. Worked hard, but tell you, I feel like doing some more of it now. If you doubt this, just visit my son. A. T.. Crawford, at Ocilla, Ga., and see for yourself.
 "W. F. CRAWFORD"
 Tanlac is sold in Birmingham exclu- olvely by Eugene Jacobs Drug store and Patton-Pope Drug company; in Ensley by D. w. Morris Drug company, and in Bessemef by Pegram-P Patton Drug com pany-Adv.

w. c. T. U. to Create Permanent Memorial
 For Miss Tutwiler

In view of the fact that the Won ans Christian Temperance union was the first organization under which Miss Julia S. Tutwiler worked, and that her great work in this state for prison reform was done as state su- pcr1ntendent of the prison reform de- -partment of the Alabama Womans S Christian Temperance union for over 32 years; and in recognition also of her deep interest in the education of the young people of this state, the executive committee of the Alabama Woman's Christian Temperance union has decided to create a permanent me- morial to Miss Tutwiler.
 They propose to provide a library ot general reading matter and school books for every prison in the state, and to present every college, normal school and agricultural school in Ala shama with a shelf of books relating to every phase of temperance reform
 New books will be added from time to time. Anyone desirous of aiding in gifts can send books to the Woman's s Christian Temperance union headquar- tiers, 113k North Twenty-first street, between 10 and 8 o'clock daily.

DRINK A GLASS
 OF REAL HOT WATER
 BEFORE BREAKFAST.
Save we will both look and feel
 clean, sweet and fresh and avoid lIIness.

l Sanitary science has of late mau. rapid strides with results that are o1 tuntold blessing to humanity The lat lest application of it's untiring research tis the recommendation that it is as necessary to attend to internal sanita- stion of the drainage system of the hu- 1man body as 1t is to the drains of the mouse.
 I Those of us who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when we arise 1splitting headache, stuffy from a cold foul tongue. nasty breath, acid stom- 1ach. can, instead, feel as fresh as a ldaisy by opening the sluices of the sys- Item each morning and flushing out tho whole of the internal poisonous stag- jnant matter.
 Everyone. whether ailing, sick or ]well, should, each morning before breakfast drink a glass of real hot lwater with teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stom- iach, liver and bowels the previous poisonous toxins; thus cleansing. lsweetening and purifying the entire lalimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on lan empty stomch is wonderfully in- jvigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases. waste and acidity
 1iio 6iVOS oic q splcHulu appetite loT breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the phosphated hot water is quietly extracting a large vol ihne of water from the blood and get
 ting ready for a thorough flushing of all the inside organs.
 The millions of people who are both
 bred with constipation, bilious spells,
 stomach trouble, rheumatic stiffness;
 others who have sallow skins, blood s6irordars and sickly ccmolexions are
 urged to get a quarter pound of lime-
 stone phosphate from the drug store. tThis will cost very little. but is suffi- ]cient to make anyone a pronounced icrank on the subject of internal san. Htation.-Adv.

Tuscaloosa, April 5.-(SpeciaI.)-Lo- cal citizens interested in the building of better roads throughout the south have started a movement for Ten nessee river to the gulf highway and strong effort will be made by Tus- caloosa to have the proposed Jackson highway choose this route instead of either of the routes advocated hereto fore. It is pointed out that a high way passing through Tuscaloosa can be built cheaper than any other and furthermore that such a route would be nearer to Pensacola, Jacksonville and New Orleans than any of the routes heretofore mentioned Franklin Marion, Fayette, Tuscaloosa, Hale, Ma rengo and Clarke counties, through which the proposed highway will pass already have built or have in course of construction practically all of the links of this proposed highway and with small cost the whole project can be completed. An effort will be made at once to have the various counties interested to send representatives to Tuscaloosa in order to organize in an effort to secure such highway
 According to Postmaster Clabaugh during the year ending March S1, 1916. the Tuscaloosa postoffice receipts were S35231 This amount is the largest In the history of the office and during the last 10 years the receipts have more than doubled.

SANTA Re ALREADY OWNS
! Terminal, IN ST. LOUIS
(St. Louis Republic.)


The Santa Fe will enter st. Louis
in a few months. st. Louis will rave
another railroad, one of the greatest
and largest in America, with more
than 1000 miles of road. The bene-
fits from the acquisition Of this pro-
digious system will be multifarious.
The Santa Fe is a distinctive rail-
road, and its territory, which is Pc
culiarly Santa Fe territory, might be
designated by the worldwide known
and historic trademark of the swas-
tika emblem, bearing On the horizon
tai crosspiece the name of the small,
old New Mexico town that lent the
big. modern railroad a winning, ro-
mantle, poetic title.
The averment that the Santa Fe will
Ienter st. Louis should be modified IN
to the assertion that the Santa Fe
already is in St. Louis. While 1t Is
true a connecting line must be con-
structed in Missouri, between Car
~rollton and Mexico, before the sys-
tenn begins running its own trains
into st. Louis over its own tracks, the
fact is equally true, although but lit
tie known, that the Santa Fe has beer
the proprietor of terminal land in st
Louis for three months.
More Than 1900 Miles.
The magnitude of the system ma.
be appreciated by the fact that it con

of road, and its outstanding capital !
