I1lba, Ala.-Mrs. M. T. May, of this strong when I married, but after my marriage, I seemed to get very much worse. About two months after was married, I began to have awful of headache, simply felt bad all the time, could hardly do a thing. I suffered so much pain in my left side and had the swimming of the head and congestion and heartburn very bad. In fact I suffered so much I thought I would die. I kept getting worse and felt I must have some relief. I had some pain and difficulty in walking. :.
 MT. -. who ran a store in recommended that I take 'Cardu', and my husband bought me bottle, which did me so much good that he bought me another, and after the use of three or four bottles I was well; was up doing my work after the use of the first bottle.

Miss Margaret Chenoweth, one of Bir- mingham's popular belles, has been the honor guest of many lovely courtesies during her visit in New Orleans Says the Times-Picayune: "Whether the day be warm and balmy or cold and crisp seems to matter little in the Country clubs attraction for society. Last week when the Wednesday luncheon found many of the members at tables set under the oaks with an al fresco set ting usual only in late spring, it was not more crowded or bright than yes terday, one of the coldest days of the winter.

People Should See Our Great Photoplay,
 Sam Da0ls, Not Only to Assist Camp Wilcox
 But For It's Real Beauty" Says Mrs Anderson
By DOLLY DALRYMPLE

EF 1 were inclined to be "bromidic"
 & (did I hear some one giggling off A stage'?) I should say that Mrs. Vera Anderson lis one of the most charming wcmen I have ever met" but register ing the protest, mot guilty" I am going to stick to my sulphitic theory and write her down as something more than "one of the most charming women I have ever met" and say that she is one of the most remarkable women I have ever met combining charm intelligence splendid business ability, and best of all enthusiasm in her work.
 In the first place Mrs. Anderson is in terested in more things than the average woman ever hears of; besides the big photoplay sam Davis," which IS her pet hobby she is the secretary and treasurer of the Conner Producing company, and as side issue conducts tremendous business in her home town, Nashville, with dozens of people taking orders from her every day.
 That Mrs. Anderson should have become affiliated with the great Confederate pho- toplay, sam Davis, seems very fitting and appropriate. for she is first vice pres ident of the Kate Litton Hickman chap ter in Nashville of the United Daughters of the Confederacy. and matron or honor for 'Lightfoot Company B.
 She loves everything connected with the Confectionery; she loves every veteran who lives now to tell the story of the noble struggle; she loves every foot of ground that covered an incident of the war, and she loves all these so much that she is giving her time and her efforts toward doing all in her power for what is left of the great cause.
 ''The Sam Davis photoplay Mrs. An derson said yesterday, lis really the first gun to be fired in honor of the reunion here in May. The production during our three days here at the Jefferson is for the benefit of Camp Wilcox and the funds derived are to be used in bringing the veterans here to the reunion. When we started the idea last year in Nashville of producing the play, we supposed it. would be merely limited effort, but the plan assumed such miraculous propor- tions, and the opportunity to make some thing big out of it developed so rapidly. that before we knew it the play had be- come a tremendous thing"
 When the reunion took place in Rich mond last year. Mrs. Anderson said, we were just starting the play which was not finished until August, and so the money we took to send our veterans to Richmond was paid back from the profits of the play afterward, and again put back into the play
 From photographic standpoint" Mrs. Anderson said, T believe the Sam Davis picture is as beautiful as any pie ture could be made.
 We have employed the best talent in the market. The players themselves are famous for their work with the various big companies. Take Russell Rose. for instance, who plays Sam Davis; he has been with the Paramount company for long time and is ma gnificent actor. He looks and acts the part of Sam Davis to perfection; big, manly, fine and coura-

~KATING is at present great
 craze in all society. In the S north indoor rinks have taken the place of the once popular ballroom, and now society makes its bow on skates Many smart looking skat- ing costumes have grown out of this craze and the rinks present gala scene. or course, our sunny southland can't even hope to play ice man, for nobody cares to be the ice man, but roller skating is a fairly good substitute. This once popu- lar pastime is growing more and more popular. and there's going to be rink right here in Birmingham. The Birming- ham Motor and Country club will soon start on their plans and then society may enjoy itself.
 Mobile society has caught the craze since the return of Mrs. Stewart Le- Blanc from New Orleans, where at one of the mystic balls al lof the partici- pants made their entry on skates. Says the Mobile Register:
 Mobile society has become enthused on the subject of skating, and in conse- quence skating parties out the west end of Government street are quite the latest thing. Mr. Telfair Hodgson is in reality the ringmaster. and as Telfair knows how to do everything, he is quite the envy of the crowd as he makes the figure and gyrates and cuts all sorts Of capers. The president of the Rotary club quite envies him. He finds it easier to rotate among Rotarans than to rotate on skates. but as the old saying goes, If at first
 aif,i nd so the president does, and some day who knows but what he may be able to stand up straight and skim gracefully along over the paved streets.
 Mrs. Maury, finding New Orleans so quick to catch on to this fad. has en- couraged her young niece. Mrs. Leblanc. to stimulate the interest here, and, with her sister, Miss Ross, is frequently out Government street. where the skaters may be seen flying through Flo Claire and all around Monterey Place.
 True it is summer time weather down here. but winter sport holds. and though ice skates are out of the question, Santa Claus brought skates to grown folks this year as well as to the small boys and girls, who have been indulging in this pastme all the days of their young lives.
 Among some who are now busy master ing the art are Mrs. E. c. Hugnes, Mrs. Florence Happer Rose, Mr and Mrs. Palmer Itllans, Mrs A. W. Yerger, MT. and Mrs. T. K Jackson and a host of others out that way, while some of the society girls who have paved back yards are practicing assiduously on the walks.
 Nobody wants to be the ice man, but say, wouldn't it be fun if he could share his wares with the weather man and pro- duce a sure enough freeze down this way for the fun of society?

| view, the play makes its appeal as well as otherwise.
 'Of course, we are delighted for people to come to see the play, because it is for the benefit of Camp Wilcox Mrs. Anderson said, but really want the pub- lie to see it aside from that reason, be- cause it is play of such real beauty. Otto Gilmore, who did the photography, is and has been with Burr Macintosh for years and is regarded as one of the great rector, s. l. Connor, was Robert Man tells director, and that I think is suf- fiicent praise for his work, as Mr. Man tell stands for all that is big and fine in the legitimate drama as well as in the film drama. We will show the play in Montgomery, Mobile and other southern cities and the proceeds will be used by the various camps to send their veterans to the reunion here in May. If there is a sweet cause, more tender appeal, to those who who love the Confederacy than just this beautiful love story of the south, l can't think just now what it is The old love stories. the untold love stories of our beloved southland, always make their appeal, and I do not believe that there IS a single one of us who could sit before the screen and see this beau- tlful picture without feeling 2 deeper and a more abiding love in our hearts for those few who are left to us now to te,l the story, tho +r~i''' Fs fats,- .. wonderful Ee1 .eyrreiifns. -tr-,.- our below, . and died to a d sta r- SO es derly.'
