Alabama Marble Deposits

THE essential qualities for an interior mar
 l ble for high grade commercial buildings, as we'll as monumental buildings, are that it shall be fine grained, approximately pure white, and that t shall take high polish; it must also be as nearly impervious to moisture and as nearly proof against staining as pos sible In all these qualities Alabama marble excels. There is no marble on the market which is superior to it in these essential par ticulars and very few that are equal to it. It is easily the highest grade interior marble so far discovered in the United States
 Undoubtedly the cities of the Cotton Belt will rebuild during the life of this generation, just as the cities of the North have been doing for a generation past. Itis fortunate that rightin the middle of the Cotton Belt there should have been discovered and developed at this opportune moment material like Alabama marble, which is so admirably adapted for the interior finish of the great and monumental buildings which will surely be erected in the future upon the basis of cotton the greatest producer of liquid cash among the staple crops of the world.

Every woman who has ever attempt
ed to lay hens on napkins or table
cloths or to hem them after they are
laid knows the impossibility of doing
them quickly or well If the stiffening
is not first removed. One way to get
them In proper condition is to rub the
linen between the fingers and thumbs
along the entire length Of the hem
This gets out the stiffness and prevents
needles from breaking.
Another and better method is before
the linen, napkins particularly, Is cut
apart. wet 1t along the line Of division
and for about an inch on each side
with small toothbrush dipped in
soapsuds. Not only will the thread
draw with few II any breaks, but the
hem can be laid with much greater
ease. Never attempt to cut linen by
the eye. 1t takes little more time to
draw a thread, and that is easily made
up by the quickness and accuracy with
which the hem is laid.

Our old friend Rheumatic is having his
inning this year, and few words OF

may not be amiss.
Wear rubbers in damp weather; keep
your feet dry; drink plenty OF lemonade,
and avoid strong alcoholic drinks.
II rheumatism gets you, or sciatica, and
you have sharp twinges, gnawing pain or
swollen joints or muscles, you can get rid
OF all agony in just a few days by taking
