Then apparently he lost control Of

When the iremen finally hacked

Sneezing.

A sneeze was considered a sign OF
omen from the Gods by the Greeks.
There are many illusions to it In
the works of classical writer's.
The Romans used to believe that
whenever beautiful girl was born
Cupid would sneeze.
In India the man who sneezes whilst
saying his prayers Immediately begins
them over again.
At the present time in many parts
of Europe the successful sneezer is
greeted with, "God bless YOU"
On similar occasion it is the Gus
tom of the Hindu to say "live," to
which the answer with you" is given
According to medical scientists the
effective range OF sneeze from the
germ point of view, is not more thar
three feet.
1t is strange fact that the blacks
OF Africa never sneeze, nor do their
full-blooded descendants in any part
of the world.

secretions when the kidneys are well,
are retained in the body when the
kidneys are disordered. II the kidneys
and bladder become infiamed and swol-
len worse troubles may quickly follow.
This is often the cause OF bearing
down pains, lameness, backache, etc.
Uric poisoning is also frequent cause
Of headaches, dizzy spells, languor,
nervousness and rheumatic pain.
When suffering so, try Doan's Kid
ney Pills, remedy that has proven
effective in thousands Of such cases.
Let a Shepherdstown woman tell OF her
experience.
Mrs. William Myers, says: 81 have

Besides pencils were never sup

on French soil was an evil for whose speedy elimination sacrifice was too great
 Germany, under similar conditions, bluffs, pleads, cries poverty and bargains for a re- duction of the indemnity while the allies re- main on her borderland and continue to ex- act the tribute of overlords. Germany balks payment to the very brink of invasion and enforced collection before she agrees to meet the terms of her war settlement. In the end she pays what the allies say she must pay.
 It makes no difference what Germany dertook to do two years ago six months ago, or last week. She is going to trade and dicker until the last mark of her indemnity has been paid, and will try to save that last mark.
 France paid her huge war debt without quibbling. France acted on pride. Germany is meeting her post-bellum obligations in different way. With her business comes fyst; pride is a subordinate consideration. Germany has just agreed to the latest demand of the reparation commission after securing con- cession as to terms. That Is the German method.

IN HOTEL LOBBIES j AND ELSEWHERE
CONFUSING BOARD PERSONNEL

"Some people do not know the difference between the school board of the city and of the county" said J. D. Moore, member of the county board of education. Whether they know the difference or not I fear that they would have hard time naming the members of the two boards.
 Each member of the county board is elect ed by the voters of the county for a term of six years. The first board under the law was chosen for two, four and six years in order that in the future there would be two members elected every two years. At the approaching election this year the terms of two of the old est members of the board will expire, and they will be reelected or others chosen to take their places."

SEMINARIES AT THE LAY COLLEGES

The work of the modern minister being wise step on the part of the Christian Brotherhood of Alabama to establish semi nary at Tuscaloosa on lands donated by the state university.
 This will enable the ministerial student to enjoy all the advantages of the lay student at the same time that he is taking his semi nary course. He will be in touch with the man who is later on to be his parishioner
 It is just as necessary for churches to he economical as for business institutions. Wher- ever some overhead expense is saved, it will enable greater work to be done by the church with the same investment.

COURT DISCOUNTS EVIDENCE OF "WHISKY BREATH"

The court of appeals has ruled that the odor of liquor on a mans breath is not evil dence sufficiently strong to convict him of manufacturing whisky. citizen of Lauder. dale county deserves the thanks of those un- regenerate Alabamians who still indulge in tunity to settle question closely allied to per- sonal liberty.
 To say that man who smelled of forbidden beverages had made the stuff he consumed would not only be evidence of a most tenuous nature, but ninety-nine times in hundred it would be false and misleading. The manu- facturer or distributor and the consumer are seldom the same person. The wary boot legger quaffs but sparingly, if at all, of the stuff he sells. The moonshiner prefers to put his wares into the channels of trade, and and get rid of his liquor, the more apt he is to accumulate a neat bank account before a mysterious stranger comes along and wrecks the plant.
 The waiting wife who detects liquor on her husbands breath does not, in majority of cases, accuse him of making it. The fight usually starts over the money he spent that should have been used to buy shoes for the children dog biscuits for the poodle.
 The time may come when whisky breath may enable minions of the law to send man to jail, but at present it merely indicates a consumer, not necessarily a manufacturer. Under the state prohibition law man can. caught in the act or exceeds his capacity.
