 1 Although little over 8 years have elapsed since the first building was erected upon the present lot within the memory of those who call themselves pioneers" many happy recollections abide; nay, many important facts are scheduled in the mind, facts which have had to do with the building up of the entire Birmingham district.
 In 1887 the first building was completed and w&s intended as the home of the Ensley Land company With the passing of this institution for a while 1t was unoccupied. For many years it stood as a sentinel, so to speak, to the way

Later this self same building became the home of the Ensley division of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company, and when that company removed its offices to Bir- mingham, again the old building was de- serted and again did sentinel duty! Later Uncle Sam rented a part of the building for postoffice space, and still later various other uses were made of it. until it became the headquarters of the Ensley company (Ramsay & McCor- mack, and finally in 1899 the Bank of Ensley was installed.
 So you see, although Ensley is young, although the whole Birmingham district is young. there is many an interesting tale that may be told about the build-

1TlO -the material prosperity of the
 Birmingham district and to the
 state of Alabama in general nc two names stand emblazoned upon the pages of history which are moge promi- nently Identified with progressiveness public spirited cordiality, and ability than the names of Erskine Ramsay and George B. Mccormack. Add to these the names of Robert E. Chadwick and Sam nel c. King, the two clever. able young men connected with Mr. Ramsay and Mr Mccormack in the Bank of -Ensley, and quartet is presented which for brains, keen foresight and accurate Judgment, can scarcely be surpassed in this broad land of ours.
 It was my pleasure few days ago to make visit to the handsome new home of the Bank of Ensley, which pleasure I had anticipated for sometime.
 To Say that the structure was reye- latlon is putting it mildly, for architec- turaily and mechanically the new home or the Bank of Ensley is not only one of the most beautiful but one of the most modern in every detail
 This attractiveN building is a dream which has come true to the men whose aAe@iASS dfS SO IHQlSSOluDlY linked to- gether in business-Ransay and Me- Cormacll-a dream which dates from those days when the bank occupied a meagre and humble little home on the self-same corner lot, Avenue E and Nineteenth street, Ensley, in the days long gone by
 These two far-sighted business men had visions of the magnificent business which this institution now Is en- inc
 all over the district all over Ala bama-and that their ~fondest hopes have been realized is a matter of con graduation heartily extended by their many friends throughout the district
 When I went out to make a visit to the Bank of Ensley it was my pleasure to renew most delightful acquaintance with MT. Chadwick, whose personality and splendid business acumen have been one of the greatest factors in the build- ing up of the bank and establishing it upon such, a firm and reliable founda- ton. Mfr. Chadwick told me many in- teersting things connected with the his~ tory of the bank--its connection with the upbuilding of the thriving city of Ensley, and the part it has played in the big business enterprises of the Bir- mingham district.
 That MT. Chadwick is proud of the beautiful new home of the bank is put ting it mildly, for upon passing a com pliment upon some feature that strikes you forcibly, MT. Chadwick smiles such a smile of genuine pride that you can help feeling that it is a joy to talk to such mana man who throws all of his magnetism and personality into his work and takes real pride>in it.

 In comme enting upon the value of Nux- ated Iron as a means for creating red blood, strength and endurance. Dr. Ferdinand King. New York Physician and Medical Author. says:
 Scarcely a day goes by but that I see women whose careworn faces, dragging steps and generally weak. tired appear ance show unmistakable signs of that anaemic, rundown condition usually brought on by lack of iron in the blood
 There can be no strong. healthy, beautiful women without iron and inas- much as refining processes and modern cooking methods remove the iron of Mother Earth from so many of our most common foods this iron deficiency should be supplied by using some form of organic iron just as we use salt when
