STEPS TAKEN BY. COTTON MILL TO. DOUBLE CAPACITY.
S100,000 Hospital and Sash and Door Plant Near Con- pletion - New Water
 works System Planned

ALEXANDER CITY, Ala, Feb. 15.-(Special.) )-From an indus. trial standpoint Alexander City is facing the brightest prospects oi her history early in the year. There is now more building under con struction and in contemplation than has ever been at one time be- fore.
 To begin with, large new brick building for the Alexander City Manufacturing company, manufac- turers of sash, doors, windows and screens, is about completed in ev- cry detail, which will allow room for big increase in the output of this factory, which makes a line of goods that will compare most fa- vorably with Grand Rapids, High Point or any other place of like character.
 Then comes the new Russell hos pital, which will be completed with in the next few weeks at a cost of something like $100,000, giving to the people of this section hospital facilities that will compare most fa- vorably with the larger cities of the state, and thing very much need ed in this section for many years.
 Mills to Double Capacity
 Following this is the announcement that the Avondale mills of this city will double it's capacity by adding 10000 spindles, the work to begin about May l. It is expected that this will be the biggest building operation for the city during the year, as it will mean that several hundred cottages will be erected along with the mill, adding possibly 1,500 or 2,000 people to the population of the city. This alone is going to make lively times in Alexander City during the summer months.
 But the building operations do not stop here, for movement is being launched in a, new waterworks sys- tenn that will cost $100,0oo or more, which will give the city water sup ply that will be sufficient for a city of. 30,000 or 10000 inhabitants, and that, too. in an abundance. Plans are being worked out for this enterprise at this time. The new system will be much larger than the old one.
 To Erect New High School
 Some time during the present year a new high school building will be built in Alexander City that will cost anywhere from s20,00 0to S30,O00. Plans are now being worked out for the construction of this building, which will give Alexander City four splendid school buildings for white people and one for colored people
 A new building is being erected, by the City Ice company for it's plant in order that it may increase it's ca pacity to the point where it can take care of the growth of Alexander City. The story could go on in telling of the building operations that are now in progress and will soon be in pro- gress in this city Many new homes will be built during the year, ac- cording to plans now on foot. All of the mills of the city are operating on full time with orders sufficient to keep them going at high speed for months to come.
 Alexander City has her best year ahead of her and she Is beginning that year.

GODS COUNTRY AND THE
 LAW" LAST TIME TONIGHT

Do you believe in superstition?
 of you do, you no doubt know of the legend of ace of spades and devils finger
 But, after all, is superstition a habit or fear that has been injected into ones life?
 "Is it an inheritance? There are those who believe it is, but the ma. jority of those, who are inclined to characterize as absurd superstition of any story. will argue that it is merely a sign of timidity-of fear. But is it?
 "That is the perplexingly interest ing and timely question that is an swered in Gods Country and the Law, which will be shown at the Palace theatre last time tonight.
 "This production, which deals with love and adventure in the Great Northwoods, is adapted from the story by James Oliver Curwood. It is the most extraordinary entertain ments that it provides, but in addi- tion to that it solves that perplex- ing problem.

IF RHEUMATIC EAT NO SWEETS Says glass of Salts helps to overcome Rheumatism
 acid.

Rheumatism is easier to avoid than to cure, states a wellknown authority. We are advised to dress warmly, keep the feet dry, avoid ex- posture, and above all, drink plenty of good water and avoid eating sweets of all kinds.
 Rheumatism is caused by body waste and acids resulting from food fermentation. It is the function of the kidneys to filter this poison from the blood and cast it out In the urine; the pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly colt weather the skin pores are closed thus forcing the kidneys to dc double work; they become weak an,
