The Name Rnnh.

Not many persons are sufficiently &c.
quninted with the Bible to know TINT
Noah was the namo of woman as
we'll ns of the patriarch.
At Rn Inquest in England q female
witness gave her Christian name as
Noah" The coroner remarked that
he had never before known woman
to bear the name. Whereuponithe wit
ness, who was well posted in the orr
gin Of her singular prenomen, said:
Z ut is Bible name, sir; youTl find 1t
In the last chapter of the book Of Num-
bers."
Reference was duly made, and in
the, eleventh verse Of the thirty-slXth
chapter the coroner found mention
made Of "aIahlah. Tirzah and Hoglah

Zelophehad."

walking md balancing,

It is pointed out that in walking or
running the arms and legs produce q
"bnlancing" like that OF the Reciprocal
Ing and revolving parts of u iocomo-
tive. The movements OF the legs react
upon the trunk and tend to rotate it in
alternate directions about q vertical
axis. But the swinging Of the arms,
each IN unison with the opposite leg.
produces an opposing mechanical coli-
pie, tho effect OF which is to rotate "a
trunk in the other direction, thus ual-
ancing, in part Mt least, the rotating
action Of the legs.

WEST FLORIDA DEMANDS
THE NEXT GOVERNOR

Editor Pensacola Journal:
l notice several extracts from the
state papers in which they state that
Hon. Mr.. So and So. OF South Florida,
is a candidate for our next governor.
This it seems TO me is matter of print
er's ink, as everybody in the state
knows, whether they acknowledge it
or not, that West Florida is entitled
to the next governor, and intends TO
have it. We have never had one since
Z. A. Perry, of Pensacola. was COVER
nor of the state-and we never had a
better one. We have waited patiently
and supported the ticket without a
murmur. and now when the time
comes it will be a West Florida man.
Escambia county has some as good
gubernatorial timber as is in the state.
The writer has in mind two or three
men in Pensacola that will just fit the
governors chair, and it will just fit
them.
We don't intend to sit idly by and
see public opinion moulded in that
shape for four years. but we must be-
gin now to let FLORIDA democrats see
that our demands are first. Pensacola
is by far the best seaport in the state,
and West Florida the coming section,
and while we are looking up CONNER
cially. our wants must be recognized
at least, once in twenty
years. CITIZEN.

Editor Pensacola Journal;
In a recent issue of the News under

seems to me that the individual who
wrote the article or caused it to be
written, must be one Of those vulgar
cigarette fends who always I'LL the

blow that vile smoke into the faces
of passengers when getting on or off.
If a gentleman smoker can not wait
until he gets off the car, which does
not take over thirty minutes to cover

High Water Marx
in CiPcUlat i0H.

The Journals circulation touched
high water mark last month. In fact
Il reached the highest average for the
month ever attained in the history o.
he paper, and The journal may be
pardOned, it hopes, for somewhat of {
feeling of pride over that fact.
The detailed statement for tho
month, which is published on this page
TO-DAY, shows exactly how many copies
Of the paper were printed on each day
making a total Of 1o1, 7os copies fol
the month, or an average of 3,efz
copies for each day in the month.
This, The Journal thinks, is q
pretty good showing, and particularly
as It is more than two times the cir
eulation which any other Pensacola
paper has or ever had. Beginning
with to-day The Journals circulation
will be over 1000 copies and by July l,
unless all signs fail, it will reach
5000 copies.
Advertisers will find The Journals
circulation statement a particularly in.
teresting one. It is interesting. first
because of what it shows about the
papers circulation; and it is interest.
ing, second, because The Journal is
the only Pensacola paper from which
an advertiser has ever been able to
get a circulation statement of any
kind.
To an advertiser, this circulation
statement demonstrates that he is get
ting more for his money than he ever
got before, and it also demonstrates
that if he is paying any other paper
within fifty per cent of the rate which
he pays The Journal, he is either pay
ing such paper too much or is not pay
ing The Journal enough.
Less than a year ago when The Jour
nal installed the only perfeetina press
in this section of the state and, with
one exception, the most expensive press
in the whole state, there were those
who predicted that The Journal was
getting too far ahead of the town and
that, in other words, the cost Of oper-
sting so expensive a plant wouli
swamp the paper. Six weeks ago
when The journal was elected a men,
her Of The Associated Press and be-
gan publishing that telegraphic ser
vice. there were also people who pre-
dicted that it would never be able to
stand the tremendous expense. But
The Journal found its modern per-
feetina press the best investment it
ever made and the press enabled it to
make more money last year than il
had ever made before. In the month
OF January, its Associated Press SER
vice has enabled The Journal to put
on nearly 400 more subscribers than It
had in December, and those extra sub
scribers prove whether or not that
latest improvement in The Journal
pays.
Now keep an eye out for The
Journals circulation statement which
will be published March 1.

NOT THE BEST.

There's always a fly in the ointment. or the butter, and it may slightly re- duce our United States pride to be told what we are told by the United States consul at Hull. England, in regard to the small sales of United States but ter in Great Britain. This consul says the reason why our butter is not want ed is that 1t is not good. He accom- panles his report by some figures show ing that out of sixty-nine samples. of American butter ffty-four contained boric acid and forty-three contained bring matter. An interesting contrast to this showing is the butter that came from Denmark. Out of 271 sam ples only one contained boric acid, and Sweden made nearly as good a showing, for of her PIP samples only four con tained this acid.
 The point is also made whether the butter sold at home is any freer from these acids and coloring matter than that which was sent abroad. The prob ability is that it certainly does not con- tain less of these dangerous ingredients.
