At THE STRAND
Career of Katherine Bush"
a Big Superfeature
Production

THE Career of Katherine Bush ~
the big special Paramount Art-Craft
production featuring beautiful Cath
crime Calvert, the international screen
star opened at the Strand today for
three days run, with Mrs Sidney
Drew in her latest comedy entitled
"Bunkered" and the mid-week edition
There are few pictures that have
created the wide interest that has
been shown in the release of this pow
erful drama from the pen of Elinor
Glyn, and the thousands of readers
who remember it as the leading serial
story in the Cosmopolitan Magazine,
will recall with pleasure the power
full appeal that this famous writer
injected into the story of the girl who
dared, and risked her all upon the alter

brates with dramatic climaxes, and
thrills one as nothing in the realm of
fiction has done since Elinor Glyn
gave to the world her sensational
love story, Three Weeks"
In this picture Elinor Glyn has
chosen a broader field, and wherein
love alone dominated the heroin of
Three Weeks" Katherine Bush is the
slave of ambition. her affairs were
not those of the heart but rather
those of worldly wise young woman,
who was willing to barter her soul
for wealth and position, and in the
words of the authoress, she was the
most damnab1y attractive creature
he thought he had ever met. She was
like some dangerous, lazy lioness."
In many respects THE career of
Katherine Bush" is one of the most
remarkable photoplays of the year,
not alone in point of screen enter
tainment, but from the viewpoint of
the advocate of the single or double
Bush smashes to smithereens the ar
gument that at once closes the door OF
happiness, that leads to an ideal love
for regardless of many affairs in her
past, she at last wins love and honor,
and becomes the wife of one of the
foremost men of England
The cast surrounding Mis- Calvert in
this picture is one of the most notable
that has been seen in Birmingham in
many months, comprising such popu-
lar artists as John Goldswo rthy, who
plays opposite Miss Calvert as Lord

! festival diseases.
The addresses of the physicians were
/ especially instructive. going into the
technicalities of the diseases and offer
ing the best remedies available at the
present time for the treatment of colitis
and aeidesis.
After an informal discussion of the
two diseases and also considering the sug-
gestions made by the two experts, it was
the consensus of opinion among those
physicians present that the only way to
absolutely eliminate typhoid and intes-
final diseases of infants was to have alb
solute pasteurization of milk. The spe-
cialists stating they had tried 1000 infants,
when others were suffering with intestinal
diseases, at John Hopkins hospital or
cows milk which had been boiled and
the most satisfactory results had been
obtained not one of them contracting
the disease.
The distinguished physicians have been
here several days and have come in con-
tact with IS cases, y of which were
minor serious three dying. They wiz
be in the city for several more days and
are making a thorough study of colitis
and other childrens intestinal diseases.
All of the local physicians promised then
utmost support in their endeavor.
Dr. Bowling made short talk, showing
that Birmingham was gradually elimin'
ating typhoid and children lntestlnal as
eases, but also showing that this city al
the present time had four times as many
typhoid cases as any other city OF It's
size in the country, with the exception
of Memphis which is half as great.
The meeting was well attended and al.
physicians present stated that they hao
been greatly benefited by the information
that they had been able to obtain through
the addresses
Three new members, Doctors W. w.
Ransom, Fred E. Stockton and Edgar
Spencer were elected as members OF the
society at the meeting.

A DISCOVERY THAT
BENEFITS MANKIND

Two discoveries have added greatly
to human welfare.
In 1885 Newton originated the vac
NUN process for condensing milk with
cane sugar to a semi-iquid form.
In 1888 Horlick at Racine, Wis, dis
covered how to reduce milk to dry
5pozcder form with extract of matted
grains, rakout cane sugar.
This product HoRLlcK named
Matted Milk. (Name since copied
by others.) Its nutritive value,
digestibility and ease of preparation
Thy simply stirring in water) and the
fact that it keeps in any climate,
has proved of much value to mankind
as an ideal fcod-drink from Infancy
to old age.

After Brief Illness

Col Edwin T. Taliaferro. aged 70,
a prominent attorney of New York,
formerly of Birmingham, passed away
at the home of his sister, Mrs Robert
Pulley, of Huntsville, yesterday after

1871 to 1878, when he moved to Fort

partnership with Judge A. o. Lane and
together they practiced law for some-
time When this partnership was dis
solved he formed partnership with the
late Noble Smith, who died at Nash
Vile last Monday. In 1892 Colonel
Taliaferro removed to New York, where
he practiced law since that time.
Some weeks ago he accepted an in
vitation to visit his old home at Pu-
laski, Tenn. and deliver an orator
there on July 4. From Pulaski he
went to Huntsville, and was visiting
his sister, Mrs. Pulley, at the time Of
his death Colonel Taliaferro was
very popular in birmingham and hao
many friends here who will regret tc
hear of his death.
During the year of 1874 Colone
Taliaferro married Miss EVE Sloss.
daughter of the late Col. j. w. Slos:
of Athens. He is survived by two
| daughters, Mrs. George S. Little. ane
and Miss Mary Taliafarro of New York
and one sister, Mrs. Robert Pulley, Of
Huntsville. Funeral services and in
torment will take place at Pulaski
Tenn. Friday.
