Family Remedy of DIsagreea-
BILE Taste
The chemists of Spencer Kellogg &
Sons, Inc, one of the largest manu-
facturers of castor oil in the world,
have perfected a remarkable process
by which all nauseating taste is re-
moved from castor oil. In the opinion
of physicians and druggists who are
already familiar with Kellogg

BILE improvement is real blessing.
It's the same old-fashioned castor oil
that every physician prescribes. It's
100 per cent pure castor oil. But that
nauseating taste has been eliminated.
Strength and purity remain the same.
Today you can take Keilogg's Taste

it without coaxing Of bribing. Do not
accept substitutes. Sold by all good

Government Aid for Farmers 75HE address of Senator Robert 4 L Owen of Oklahoma, delivered before the convention of the American Cotton Association in Montgomery, Tuesday afternoon, was of great in- terest to the farmers of America. It was particularly instructive to the southern cotton grower. Senator Owen spoke on "Our Banking System"
 The federal reserve act and the farm loan act, which Senator Owen helped to get through Congress, are generally recognized as two of the most important legislative measures enacted in many years. Senator Owen said they afford great help in the organized handling of the south's cotton cr9o Through cooperation of the government with the farmer he is able to build up his farm and in- crease his production. The difficulty of borrowing money at low rate of interest has probably done more than any other single factor to retard the development of the farming industry in the United States. 1t has been a severe handicap to the cotton grower whose business in the past has been conducted in a haphazard way.
 The federal farm loan system en- ables the United States government to cooperate with state governments in storing, distributing, grading and marketing cotton to the best advan- tage, all matters of prime importance which are just now being put on a strictly business basis. Senator Owen urged cotton producers to form their own organizations for obtaining fair price for their staple.
 At time when republicans are di- recting some of their campaign fire at the federal reserve system, the ad- dress of Senator Owen, an authority on the subject, should dissipate any doubts southern cotton growers may have of the practical advantages to he derived from our national banking laws.

WILCOX IS FOR UNDERWOOD

be opposed was expressed by s. q God bold, lawyer and editor. Underwood is not entangled with any organization that will prevent him from representing all the people," said MT. Golbohd. The county treasurer, F. B. Dexter, said the same thing, and D. s. Prichett, hardware man, declared that labor is the para mount issue, and s'to meet it we have a man of honesty, prestige and influence. a fearless man who will not be governed by political expedientss H. D. Matthews. another Camden merchant, confessed that Mir. Underwood's position on the labor question had influenced him greatly. and besides it is good Alabama policy to keep capable men in the Senate. c. M. Jones, one of the most successful cattle. men in Wilcox, with herds in that county and in Marengo, said of Mir. Underwood that he is one of the greatest senators ever produced in the south-he says what he thinks and thinks what he says.- R L. Renz, merchant, voiced the opinion of many when he said. T am tired of tho
 prohibited agitation when prohibition is all settled and everybody is satiSzed.-
 Sol D. Bloch, the sage of Camden, and the lifelong friend of education, Said he believes Underwood will get s per cent of Wilcox county's vote. Editor O. c.

Iof the service. In the last six months of 1919, Admiral Washington said, there were 4,666 assertions. More alarming still, many petty officers, some of them with several years ex- perience are deserting.
 Until Congress sees fit to adopt a more liberal policy, the personnel of the navy will suffer. Recruiting is at a low ebb, in spite of intensive eff forts made throughout the country to get young men to join the navy. The many advantages it offers are dis counted by the high pay received in civilian life. It would not be neces- sary to raise the pay of officers and men to the high levels now obtaining in industry, but proportionate in- creases should be granted to make the pay of our sailors relatively equal to what is considered fair wage else where. Fifty dollars month in the navy is equivalent to $100 month, or more, in civilian employment, but nowadays $100 a month is regarded as beneath the notice of the average skilled worker.

GIVE CHAPLIN TO LEVINE

From the Chicago Tribune
 There was time when we would have said that if Jack Dempsey could not whip Carpenter, Charlie Chaplin could. MT. Chaplin's career had proved it true that the bigger they came the harder they fell He was a fair match for Jimmy Wilde and Jess Willard and all the weights in between.
 The other day MT. Chaplin got into un- pleasantness with movie manager and appears to have done nothing except put his right eve smack in the way of a left jab. The inimitable foot work was not there, no blocking or feinting, no ducking. Mir Chaplain took it standing That is the best that can be said about his performance.
 That destroys an illusion and cham pion. We now suspect all his fights were fra ne-ups. The boy was not there at all. He needs bake shop There he would be all to the custard. The moral is that if he would work more he would not have so much time to get into trouble. We ought> to send him to Russia and allow Lenine to conscript him for work.

Lfke. Salvation Armx

From all I have seen and know Of the Salvation Army. I can uquah
 fiedly say that think the organization is most remarkable one" said D. Oscar deWolffe Randolph, rector of St. Mary s-on-the- Highlands. T had a brother who fought in the late war in France and whenever we received a letter from him. it was always filled with pleasant complimentary things about the Salvation Army. He fre- quently told us that when we were making our contributions to the various welfare organizations during the war not to forget the Salvation Army, be- cause the soldiers were greatly in- debted to the Salvationists for their kindness and consideration, not only in the matter of spiritual comfort, but material welfare. Since the war has ended, the home service work of the Salvation Army has been, from all can observe, just as efficient and just as generous as during the war I am anticipating with much pleasure the visit of the commander, Miss Booth, next Monday, when she will deliver one of her notable lectures here"

From the Mobile Register.
 GT1HE county of Wilcox is for Under wood Our correspondent finds
 every assurance that this is the fact. The leaders of thought give a good reason for what they say regarding the senator Prohibitionists do not hesi- tate to avow that they are for him. W. J. Bonner, banker, said he did not think he would choose Underwood when prohibitionist candidates offered in op- position, but he had changed his mind. The fight made on Underwood by organ ized labor had caused him to consider; and then also he obtained better under standing of Underwood's attitude as to prohibition. Said MT. Bonner: MT. Un- derwood's opposition to the prohibition amendment was based wholly upon his conception of the rights of states; and that whenever it has been a question of enforcing the law, Mir. Underwood has been squarely for enforcement. Mir. Un- derwood voted for the Webb-Kenyon bill and gave the bill the right-of-way when he might easily have caused its delay Mir Underwood voted also for the volstead enforcement measure. With these facts in mind, do not believe his opponents will get the support oI a cor porars guard in this county. MT. Under woods opening speech at Huntsville will not leave half dozen prohibitionists in this county lined up against him.

LUKE M,LUKE SAYS

 l The trouble with a woman of few words 1 is that she repeats them every hour or so.
 What has become of the O. f. man who used to keep his store teeth in the bot tom of the kitchen clock? About the only time a man is gener- ous to fault is when the fault is his own.
 And the mere fact that she has four grandchildren won't keep a woman from wearing short skirts nowadays. If prohibition hasn't done anything else, l it has fixed your latchkey so 1t isn't too thick to go into the keyhole when you | get home at night It is sad thing to say, but the man
 who does business on the theory that all men suckers usually has plenty of money,
 The O. f. man who used to make his money raising chickens now has a son who makes his money raising jackpots A sharp man thinks it is up to him to make tools of men who are duller than he is.
 A woman likes to have a good figure because she hasn't much trouble in changing some of the outlines to fit the prevailing fashion Play fair with your wife When a woman loses confidence in one man she places 1t with-another man. A man likes to lean back in his com fortable desk chair, put his feet on his desk and spend two hours telling you lhow hard he has to work. Cheer up, Any time you bang your self with hammer You may get some ccnsolation out of the fact that it takes l only five months for new thumb nail 10 grcW.
