You have Catarrh, li makes you ill;
It dulls your mind; weakens your will;
it undermines your health. The hawk
ing, coughing, spitting makes you ob
noxious to all and your foul breath and
disgusting habits make even your’loved
ones avoid you secretly. Your delight in
life is dulled and your faculties impair
ed. Tn time catarrh will bring you to
an untimely grave because it *up« your
vitality.
I have a treatment that will free you
of this abomination. It is something ab
solutely different. If you are tired pay
ing enormous doctors’ bills; If you are
through buying expensive nostrums and
so-called cures, write and learn how
you can conquer tills insidious foe of
humanity. It will cost you only a penny
for a postal card und that penny will
bring you a glorious emancipation, a
new youth, a new health, a new vigor.;
You will he strong. vital. energetic,

Catarrh, asthma, colds in head or
throat, bronchitis, hoarseness, affec

taste, foul breath, and the dozens of in
fections due to catarrh will all vanish
before the sweeping effects of my treat

RISK JUST ONE CENT
Send no money—just your name and

how to overcome Catarrh." That’s all
you need to say. The facts will be sent
to you FREE and at once. Don't delay.
Every day, every hour catarrh clings to
you, all Its disagreeable, disgusting
features handicap you. Don't think of

greater or less degree in Almost every
line of trade. The railroad situation has
not Improved. Net earnings declined for
a considerable period, and now gross
earnings have been declining. The freer
movement of metals and general mer
chandise will help the railroad situation
in a measure but genuine relief cannot
come to the railroads until the 1914 crops
begin to come in. Even good crops mav
not wholly remedy the present unsat
isfactory conditions unless some method
is found by the railroads or the inter
state commerce commission to enable the
roads to get a higher rare pet* ton per
mile on freight. Fortunately for the
roads, the cost of niateiir.Is less than
it was a few months ago and they would
now be in a position to buy new equip
ment and supplies liberally were they
able to I1n*».)ce such purchases. 'Financ
ing by railroads was accomplished dur
ing January to the amount of $74,000,00>
compared with $76,000,000 for January of
last year. Industrial financing being
smaller for the month than last year by
$16,000,000. probably helped the market for
those securities. Railroad securities gen
erally will look better to the investor
when the railroads can snow better net
profits on operation.
"Building operations for the month of
January showed n gain of about 10 per
cent over the same month last year, al
though they were smaller for New York.
Philadelphia, San Francisco, Bos Angrles,
Newark. Cincinnati, Baltimore and New
Orleans. Big gains for the month ifere
shown by St. Bouts. Seattle. Portland.
Pittsburg, Minneapolis, Brand Rapids.
Duluth. Detroit. Denver, Columbus,
Cleveland and Albany. A number of
other hading cities showed fair gains.
"The figures on business failures for
January call for cureful analysis on the
part of all business men. Only for the
year 1910 did the aJnuary failures ap
proach the figures of January, 1914. in
total liabilities which last, month amount
ed to over $39,000,000. A larger number
of failures was recorded in January, 1912.
and 1908, but the total liahilites for each
of these months were considerably less.
Mortality was heavy in manufacturing
lines and 25 failures of manufacturing
concerns, having liabilities of more than
$100,000, caused the total to swell to un
usually large figures. Thove were fewer
failures In brokerage lines, as well as
in groceries and meats. Jn foundry and
machinery lines failures were fewer In
number, but in foundries, total liabilities
were greater. As similar conditions are
reported for Canada, the situation is not
a local one, hut is still further evidence
of the general business house-cleaning
which has been going on for sometime
and is apparently not yet completed.
"Railroad gross earnings tor the cal
endar year 1913 for all roads set a new
high record at $3,201,000,000, the highest
previous showing being $3,046,000,000 Hi
1912. These figures w’ould prove mislead
ing were it not mentioned that the gain
made by the railroads was experienced
during the first nine months of the year.
From October 1 to December 31. gross
earnings declined materially. Net earn
ings showed the first falling off in March,
a gain for April and May, followed by a
steady decline throughout the balance of
the year. The railroads added about 1
per cent to their mileage during the year.
Gross earnings for January, so far as
reported, totaled $67,000,000. compared with
$71,000,000 for January of last year, a de
cline of 5 per cent.
"Pig iron is moving and prices show
an inclination to advance, although the
advance is slight as yet.
"Coke prices are a little harder, white
the coal trade, particularly bituminous,
is exceedingly quiet.
"1* is easy to say that the business
for the later months of this year will
depend largely upon crop conditions
because we all know that this must
l»c true. This year, however, even more
depends upon the crops than Is usually
the case. Business is slowly, but sure
ly, improving and easier money is
helping general conditions. The vol
ume of business wrhich will be shown
on the last day of this year to have
been transacted during the 12 months
will he largely affected by farm pro
duction. Present reports Indicate good
soil and plant conditions over practi
cally the entire winter wheat, rye and
oats area. There are a few million
acres which were planted to provide
early spring pasturage, and it is not
expected that we will harvest much
more than 32,000.000 acres of wheat
and 250,000,000 acres of rye. Allowing

case and requested telegraphic informa
tion from tiie local authorities at Chi
huahua. asking them to send him a full
report on the case, which he has not re
| reived, owing, no doubt, to the advance
j of General Vilia south of Chihuahua.
“Carranza’s attitude in the Benton and
Baud, cases in not accepting the repre
sentation made by the British government
in the case of a British subject, and
his reply at once with deep interest to
the representations made to him through
a duly authorized representative In the
case of an American citizen, goes to prove
dearly that what Carranza desires is to
have tlie national dignity and his posi
tion as supreme chief of the constitution
alist army respected, hut at the same
time he does not wisli by any means to
elude representations made to him.in due
form and according to international law. ’
General Carranza's reply to Mr. Bryan’s
request for Information of the Bauch case
reads as follows:
“I have received through the acting sec
retary of the department of foreign af
fairs the telegram which the honorable,
the Secretary of State, William Jennings
Bryan, addressed to you today relative
to the Bauch case.
in reply thereto I have the honor to
inform you that 1 have today telegraphed
to tlie competent constitutionalist authori
ties directing them to report to me at
once in detail, and as soon as I shall
have positive information to convey to
you, I shall do so at once.
“Please believe, and I beg of you to so
inform tlie department of state, that 1
most sincerely lament this unfortunate in
cident, and that the department may rest
assured and have confidence that my. at
titude now, as always, will be inspired by
absolute respect for the lives and prop
erties of foreigners and for international
law.
“Please accept for yourself, and be good
enough to transmit to tlie Secretary of
State, the assurance of my highest con
sideration.’’
The text of tlie longer explanation about
the Benton incident read:
“Tn reply to the unofficial representation
which you made to me yesterday in tlie
name of tlie department of state of the
United States, I have to inform you as
follows:
“I have already on other occasions in
formed you. so that you may communi
cate it to your government, that in order
to enable the executive power under my
charge to attend to representations rela
tive to foreigners residing in this country,
within the territory under the jurisdiction
of constitutionalist authorities, that such
representations must be made by repre
sentatives authorized by their respective
governments and communicated directly
to me as supreme chief of the constitution
alist army, through the department of
foreign affairs, attached to the executive
power.
“Therefore, in order to be consistent
witli my policy as above outlined I wish
to inform you that I shall be only too
pleased to consider any representations
made in tlie case of tlie British subject,
William S. Benton, provided, of course,
that it may be made directly to mu by a
representative of the British goveriment.
"With reference to this case and in
order to show the spirit of justice
which animates the constitutionalist
government I think it advisable to re
peal here what I have already told you
and other authorities of the United
States and stated publicly through the ,
press:
“Tiie constitutionalist government
recognizes tlie rights of all foreigners—
as provided for by the decree of May
13. 1913—to claim losses and damages
already suffered by them or which they 1
may continue to suffer during the pres
ent civil strife, 1. e., since February
19. 1913, until the restoration of con
stitutional order in Mexico. The above 1
is evidenced by your honorable Secre
tary of State, Mr. William Jennings
Bryan, who does me justice in his sec
ond telegram of yesterday addressed
to you wherein he appreciates my ef
forts in endeavoring to protest the
lives and properties of foreigners, in
asmuch as I have always respected
them in my character as supremo chief
of the constitutionalist army, and en
forced the respect for the lives and
property of all foreigners residing in
the republic who strictly complied with
their obligations as neutrals.
“I w’Ts’h, how’ever, to call especially
to your attention—In order that you
may so inform your government—that
yours is the first direct representation
made to me in the Benton case, since
all of the representations made in this
case so far have been made to author
ities ot flie constitutionalist govern
ment who only have been dealt with,
although I am the supreme chief of
the constitutionalist army, according
to the declaration of Guadalupe of
March 26, 1913. And it is therefore only
to me, as I have repeatedly stated on
various occasions, that foreign gov
ernments or their representatives
should address representations regard

of the National Equal Suffrage associa
tion will meet outside of New York, ami
to Birmingham fell that honor. On Mon
Jay and Tuesday, March 9 and 10, from
12 to 15 of the most distinguished women
of the world will visit the city for the
purpose of holding an executive meeting
and to further the equal suffrage cause
In Alabama. Many of them are of in
ternational fame, all are recognized load
ers in the movement.
That Birmingham will receive and wel
come this gathering of notables is evi
Senced by the ready manner in which
Tien and women of the city, regardless
of their views on the suffrage ques
tion. are co-operating with the general
committee from the local equal suffrage
issociation in providing for their enter
tainment. The Birmingham men will
five a luncheon March 9 in their honor
ander the auspices of the Board of Trade;
the Birmingham women will entertain
hem at a luncheon at the Country club,
rhe Birmingham Trades Council has of- j
fered its assistance in this matter. Sol
lave the merchants of the cV r\ so have |
everyone who uppni»ciatc«i the promi
nence of the group of women who will
>e in the city on March 9 and 10.
Among them will be Dr. Anna Shaw,
president of the National Equal Suf
'rage association, a woman known and
idmired wherever the English language
s spoken or known. Tno splendid, self
sacrificing character of Miss Jane Ad
lams is known the world over and pos
sible her charities ami work for tlie poor
md friendless has been the subject of
magazine and newspaper articles until
hey are most widely known. The other
^omcn of the party are almost equally
'among.
If the members of the executive board
no not given the reception that their
standing and fame would indicate, it will
lot be the fault of the members of the
ocal equal suffrage association, for they
lave been untiring in their efforts to
mllst the men and wome»n of the city
n making preparations ror the reception
md entertainment of their distinguished
quests, and tlie results thus far show
hey have succeeded.
In honor of the occasion, the city will

Race for Sheriff, Having

That Gua Lee, candidate for sheriff, ia
backed by the representative men of the
county was evidenced by the names that
appeared as members of his campaign
committee in a recent issue of The Age
Herald. Every walk of life was repre
sented and among the names were those
of many of the moat influential citizens
of the county. Gua Lee is not backed
by any click or clan, nor any special
Interest. He Is making a clean, open
-ace, having formed no alliances or com
binations. Neither has he “syndicated"
the office. That he is competent none
will deny for he has demonstrated his
iblllty as a leader of men in his busi
ness affairs. He is honest, upright, man
ly and conscientious and ideally fitted
by nature and training for the important
duties of tlie office to which he seeks to
oe elected.
He lias lived In Birmingham for nearly
25 years, is a man of family and his home
life is ideal. The enthusiasm of his
friends and supporters would justify the
conclusion that he will be the next sheriff
of this county by the votes of its rep
resentative citizens. ...

Is a mortgage for $29,000.

forced him to swerve into a curb, rip
ping off two tires. Pullen renewed his
wheels and re-entered the race with
the loss of but a few minutes.
Teddy Tetzlaff. who set the course
record of 78 72 miles an hour, which
still stands, was out of the race early.
He covered several laps today at the
rate of 87 miles an hour. Tire troubles
and the balking of motor and bear
ings forced him to quit.
The wholesale elimination of cars
began In the twentieth lap. A pace
of close to 80 miles an hour appar
ently was too much for them. Engine
troubles developed rapidly, and one by
one the cars dropped out.
Climbs to First Place
Pullen began his climb to first place
in the thirtieth lap. He was fourth
then and going 79 miles an hour. Mar
quis, who held the lead until his ac
cident in the thirty-fifth, set the pace
and Pullen successively passed Ander- r
son and De Palma.
Pullen's prize was $3000. The two %
next prizes went to Los Angeles Bovs,
Pall and Taylor, who drew $2000 and
$lf>00 respectively. De Palma added
$1000 to the money he won Thurs
day. m
Taylor plugged into third place with
a car which he said he had picked up
as junk and bought for $250.
Tiiis was Taylor’s second race with
the old machine, and his time for the
last 10 laps averaged 66 miles an hour.

Health Expert Here Introducing:
New Medicine Gives Reason
for Sad Condition .
According to the health expert in
troducing the famous medicine, "Rhu

due 1o stomach trouble. He states this
new preparation will cure practically
all modern ailments by regulating tin
digestive organs and explains his the- *
ory ns follows:
“\\ hen food is properly digested a
person is well but when the digestive
organs are not in condition, perfect
health is impossible. A tired, over
worked stomach produced by little out
door exercise in years, too much hasty
eaten food and irregular hours can
cause an endless amount of ailments;
among them being liver complaint, kid- v’
ney trouble, nervous breakdown, blood
trouble and even rheumatism.

I day which will aid in staving off ill
ness.
