VISITOR BREAKS \ LEG BY FALL ON SIDEWALK
Candidate for Shrine Slips on Wet
 Sidewalk and Is Badly Hurt

Marcus Crawles, a resident of Rus sellville, slipped on the sidewalk near the store of Loveman, Joseph x Loeb at Third avenue and Nineteenth street yesterday morning and sustained a broken leg and other injuries.
 Mr. CraWles came to Birmingham yesterday morning with the intention of going to Albany with the Shriners where he was to have been initiated, and was walking with some friends when the accident happened.
 He was carried to the Highland ln- firmary in Shaw's ambulance and was reported to be resting as well as could be expected last night.

 When you are next in the vicinity of First avenue and Twentieth street, Second avenue and Twentieth street or any of the other busy crossings where traffic off cers are maintained during rush hours, take a look at those "stop" and 'gO' signs. They are not put there for ornament and you may not approve of their cut or style, and certainly you cannot look approving ly upon the manufacturers imprint around the base.
 The maker took pains to advertise his goods and the place where they are made ''Made in ," not Birmingham.
 They are made of iron, and made in city not 200 miles from Birmingham. They are made of iron bought in Birmingham no doubt The iron of which they are made cost, perhaps, $50, certainly not more than than S2 for each device or whatever it may be called The city of Birmingham paid considerably more than S2 for each one of these.
 The iron made in Birmingham was ship ped to the nearby city carrying freight charge and another freight charge had to be added when the finished article was shipped back to Birmingham.
 In the city where the iron is made into signs" a factory had to be built, laborers paid and overhead expenses provided for. ~-I It is quite probable that the iron in these devices represents but small part of their cost.
 Now, had they been made in Bi1ming ham the item of railroad freight would have been saved, office and shop men would have been employed here and their salaries and wages expended with local merchants and property owners for pro- visions, clothing and rent or for payments on homes.
 Doesn't the question, "Why are not these things made in Birmingham? naturally suggest itself.
 The factory that makes these "stop" and "go' signs may be 8 small one; 1t may enl- ploy only few men, but it is the small lr}- dustry that builds up the big community. The big corporations build factories and mills and employ thousands of men and dispense enormous sums in their monthly orweeSly pay rolls. They make big show ing. But the little factories make for the greater city, because they add diversity, bring together greater variety of work CTS. multiply the activities of the people, and each little article bearing the trade mark made in Birmingham advertises the city
 Birmingham does not want to detract from any other city; she does not want anything that would work injury to others: she is not jealous or envious of. the pros perity of others, but she needs all the fac tories and mills, big and small, that she can get. And especially does she need to work up her raw materials into finished products.
 Every ton of big iron shipped away from Birmingham means just that much raw material sent away. Every ton of pig iron worked into the finished product here means just that much raw material con verted into the things needed by the peo- nle in their daily activities And it means employment for labor.

Reckless Courage Was Of

Rome.-The Gazzatta di Torino, tell
Eng about the count Of Salemi, cousin
of the king Of Italy, recalls how he
fought in the beginning of the war in
Val d'Assa under the false name Of
Macmillan Mombello. Nobody, not

vigorous youngster, so good and mild
of temperament, so magnificent In his
reckless courage, was Prince Umberto,
count Of Salemi.
The hour of danger found him calm.

they praised him Corporal Macmillan
Mombello would answer with a proud
smile: "I-but I am a special corpo-
raj" His manner quickly won him the
friendship and favor Of all, from the
soldiers to the officers.
Count Starts a School.

the lessons. A draught CT wine, a por-
ton of bread were ready for all in his
trench ration. His greatest Joy was
ION the arrival of the mail in the eve
ming. If the enemy permitted, he de-
voted himself to reading and writing
letters. He was often surprised, moved
or disturbed by the letter he received
or sent-a letter from his mother OF to
his mother.
One day, however, 1t leaked out
among the officers that Mombello was
the Prince Salemi of royal blood. 1t

the war period there was a dread Of

what: If the American went to Canada
he might be conscripted, put in prison,
or In his attempt to cross the border he
would meet with innumerable difficult
ties, most Of which, of course, was un.
true. These untruths were circulated
for a purpose by an element, which, it
was discovered had an interest in To-
menting and creating trouble and dis
trust between two peoples whose Ian
guage and aims in life should be any
thing but of an unfriendly character.
The draft law of the United States
adopted for the carrying out of the
high purposes had in view by the Unit.
ed States kept many from going to
Canada during the period of the war.
The citizen army Of the United States
was quickly modified, and contained
a large percentage of the young men
from the farms. In this way many
ere prevented from going to Canada.
That is all over now. There are no
real or imaginary restrictions; there is
no draft law to interfere. On the con.
trary there is an unfathomable depth
of good feeling, and the long existing
friendship is stronger than ever. This
has been brought about by the knowl.

cent great struggle, each vying with
the other in giving credit for what was

by the leading banking institutions of
Italy.
The Salviati palace, which Is near
the entrance of the Corso Umberto

Capitoline hill, is surrounded by the
other equally historic palaces Of the
Odescalchi and Dorvia families. Its

The first floor of the palace will be
occupied by the central headquarters
Of the Italian-American league, Of
which Senator Ruffini is president and
which has for it's object promoting
every possible relation between the
American and Italian peoples.
The second floor will be given over
to the offices of financial organiza-
lions that are especially interested in
italian and American stocks and
bonds.
Still other portions Of the palace will
be given over to the societies and or

enable them to attain their ends.

Health Talks
Where Most Sickness Begins
and Ends
BY N < DUANE, N. D.

It can be said broadly that most human
2s begin in the stomach and end in the
stomach. Good digestion means good
health, and poor digestion means bad
health. The minute your stomach fails to
properly dispose of the food you eat, trou-
bles begin to crop out in various forms.
Indigestion and dyspepsia are the common
est forms, but thin, impure blood, head
aches, backaches, pimples, blotches, dizzi.
ness, belching, coated tongue, weakness,
poor appetite, sleeplessness, coughs, colds
and bronchitis are almost as common
There is but one way to have good health,
and that is to put and keep your stomach
In good order This is easy to do If you
take DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry. 1t is a wonderful tonic and blood
purifier, and is SO safe to take, for it u
made Of roots and herbs. DR.. Pierce, Of
Buffalo, n. Y, stands behind this stand
ard medicine, and it is good to know thaA
so distinguished a physician is proud to
have his name identified with it. When
you take Golden Medical Discovery, you
are getting the benefit of the experience of
a doctor whose reputation goes all around
the earth. Still more, you get a temper
ance medicine that contains not a drop of
alcohol or narcotic of any kind. Long ago
DR.. Pierce combined certain valuable vege-
table ingredients-without the use Of alco-
hol-so that these remedies always have
been strictly temperance medicines.
If piles are torturing you, get and o
Pierce's Anodyne Pile Ointment. The
quick relief it gives is hard to believe until
you try it. If constipated DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets should be taken while
using Anodyne Pile Ointment. Few in
deed are the cases which these splendid
remedies will not relieve and usually over
come. They are so good that nearly every
drug store has them for sale.
