me no good at all--my pains got worse instead of better. I began taking the Vegetable Compound and felt a change from the first. Now feel fine and ad. wise any one going through the Change of Life to try it, for it cured me after 1 had given up all hopes of getting better. You can publish this and will tell any one who writes to me the good it has done me"-Mrs. MARGARET DANz, 1925 N. Alder St., Phila., Pa.
 It hardly seems possible that there is woman in this country who will cons tinue to suffer without giving Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial after all the evidence that is continually being published, proving beyond contra. diction that this grand old medicine has relieved more suffering among women than any other medicine in the world.

VAT DEsTRoYERs BUSY


 Anniston. April 4.--(Special)- )-Be- lated reports made public Saturday ait ernoon showed that total of ten cat tie dipping vats were destroyed by dynamite during the last week, the last ones being wrecked by dynamite charges exploded therein during Fri day night.
 All of the vats destroyed by dyna- miters during the week were located south and west of the quarantine line established by the veterinary authori- ties of the state last year after the peo- pie of the northern and extreme east ern part of the county had wrecked pra actically all of the dipping vats north and east of the line later drawn and from which cattle cannot be moved into another county or into another part of Calhoun county.
 County Inspector w. F. Clements made the estimate Saturday afternoon that it will cost the taxpayers or Cal houn county around $15,000 to repair and operate the destroyed dipping vats are fully met and the lower half oi this county freed from the existing quarantine against cattle.
 The county inspector reported Sat urday that several of the vats blown up during the last week had already been destroyed and rebuilt severa times in some instances, and at one vat, where construction work was under way, the destroyers wrecked the forms ready to receive the cement walls of the dipping place. filled the excavation with dirt, rocks and other refuse matter twice during the same week!
 In the lower part of the county only three voluntary dipping days stood be tween the cattle owners and freedom from the quarantine, and had the vats been left alone for period of six weeks the nightmare of cattle dip ping which has caused so much excite ment in Calhoun county for year ol more would have existed only in the memory of those who favored or op- posed the measure.

DAILY NOVELETTE,
The Royal swipes

| It was the Russian winter and the sky
 looked coldly down on Moscow. l Several small stars shivered far above,
 and the steppes were so frozen and icy | that it was really unsafe to walk down
 them.
 i Wrappings his samovar closer about
 him, the handsome Prince Picklejuski walked swiftly to the door of an humble cottage in Pigski Alleyvitch and knocked
 softly upon it.
 | The door opened and disclosed the beauteous, buxom form of the lovely Olga Noclanearoff to his enamoured gaze. Prince Picklejuski!' she cried, won deringly, and curtsied low, having recog-
 nized him by the imperial Russian crest tatooed on the end of his nose. "Rightski, Prince PicKlejuskir' he an- swered and clasped her unresisting form in his strong arms Beautiful one. is your father homer asked the prince, tendeEly. "No. He's gone after a barrel of vodka" she answered, with spirit. "Ah! The fates are with usr' he cried. Long have I watched and loved you 1 from afar. Your father keeps a we'll filled coal bin, does he not scrumptious creature?"
 "Yes, your highness," she faltered wondering whether to hand him her dowry then, or wait until after they were married.
 And with coal fifty rubles a hunk all | over Russia!' he murmured. "Fair one, 1 let me inspect your coal bin while yo1l ' pack your little bag and get ready to
 elope with me-.
 1 After showing him the way to the cellar, 1 she rushed upstairs to get ready, and ljust as she was throwing new red caviar into her carpetbag, she heard q loud noise and chatter. Looking but the window, she saw that which made her cry out, e'Ye godso- vitch!'
 A drosky (wagon) was being driven l furiously away from the house filled with

During the last three days of the week just closed there were nearly 4,OOO school teachers and educators in Birmingham. They came from all parts of the state.
 No two halls in Birmingham will hold this num- Der of people. Presumably majority of the visi- tors were here to learn something of value to them in their work The instructive work of con- ventions usually takes place in some hall or other meeting place where lectures, addresses and other forms of instructions are given.
 Had all of the 4,000 men and women in attend ance on the convention desired to be present at one time in any one place, they would have been confronted with an impossible problem.
 The special committee made up of representa- tives of the civic bodies, and of which Morris w. Bush is chairman, is understood to be making good progress towards raising the public's part of the auditorium fund. Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars are to be raised by public sub- scription.
 For several weeks MT. Bush and his associates on the committee have been working on this part of the programme and they give assurance that this entire sum will be in hand whenever needed.
 The work of erecting the auditorium building it is understood will begin just as soon as such de- tails as the final draft of plans can be made and contracts awarded When that is done it will be only question of time when Birmingham will of la kind in the south.
 Then will Birmingham be prepared to enter tain large gatherings of all kinds Conventions that have been waiting for adequate facilities can then come and find halls and committee rooms and all other accommodations and conveniences at their disposal.
 The "All-Star Concerts, initiated by Mrs R. F. Johnston and Mrs Orline A. Shipman; the Music Study Club, with it's splendid programme of ar tists; the choral society organized and directed by Forrest Dabney Carr, will have place in which to put on it's. oratories and other pro- grammes. Everybody who so desires can hear the Chicago Grand Opera when it comes here next winter. In fact, Birmingham will then be able to accommodate any assemblage that may be in- duced to come here.
 Grand. opera companies, symphony orchestras and other similar attractions tour arrange their trips so as to reduce railroad fares to the min imum. They can do this only by booking cities separated by short distances. Obviously a tour so arranged that stop would be made in Bir- mingham would be more economical than if Bir- mingham had to be omitted, thereby necessi- tating jump from, say Atlanta to Memphis or New Orleans.
 The location for the auditorium, so far as the public is advised, has not been selected. It would be well to find location for it which could event ually be part of the civic center A civic center for Birmingham is in contemplation. The audi torium building would be good beginning for it.
 Yours for upbuilding,
