Reports of Alabama Home Building and Loan Associa
ton Show Much Activity in Building Circles.
Loans on Half Values

Did the people of Birmingham feel
sufficiently at ease financially to
build homes this year?
They did. The Alabama Home
Building and Loan association ad-
vanced 100000 for the building of
homes in Birmingham the first ten
months of this year.
This is. s6s2,00o more than was
loaned for home building purposes by
this concern during the same period
last year. There was more money
with which to build homes and as a
base for loans from the building and
loan associations.
The building and loan association
loans not more than so per cent of the
value of the property. The $3,0oo,6o0
loaned by the Alabama Home Build
ing and Loan association in the first
ten months of the year, therefore,
represents 100000 in new homes
and improvement of old ones during
the first ten months of the year.
The Alabama Home raised its capt.
tai stock from 100000 to 50, 600. 00U
In the early spring. The total in
crease has been absorbed by the peo-
pie of Birmingham. How much more
they would have absorbed had 1t been
available may be judged from the
numbers of loans that the. building
and loan associations have been
forced to refuse on account of their
loanabie funds being totally abb
| sorbed.
These homes were built without

The Easiest Way
To End Dandruff

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This de-
stroys it entirely. To do this. just
get about four ounces of plain, or
binary liquid arvon; apply it at night
when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub in gently with the
finger tips.
BY morning, most. if not all, of your
dandruh will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
You will find. too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft. and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive, and
four ounces is all you will need This
simple remedy has never been known
to fail.-Advertisement

Ripping Rhymes
BY WALT MASON
LOOKING FOR IT.

The man who always looks for grief
is sure to find the goods he seeks; his
search is peradventure, brief, or it
may last seven weeks. But when he
finds his grief he's prone to wish he'd
sought for other things, and puts up a
bitter groan, the while the Wise Man
smiles and sings. The man who doesn't
pay his bills hunts grief, and he will
run it down; the course he follows al
ways kills a fellows standing in the
town. And when he runs for county
clerk, or tries to follow other plans.
his creditors get in their work, and
he is with the also rams. The scan
DIAL mongers hunting woe, and he is
close upon it's heels, some ugly tale
he whispers low will reach the man
with whom it deals. Then there will
be a frightful scene of violence, the
moon beneath; and Mr. Scandalman
will lean against fence and spit out
teeth. If griefs invited to your home,
it's sure to come, with its valise, and
it will furrow your old dome, and new
er give you any peace. It's better far
to hunt for joy, and ask it to your
cheap abode; say kindly things and
don't anoy the jays along the road
Be honest as the day is long and earn
the kopecks in your purse; then life
will be a grand sweet song, chorus
after every verse. -....5.
