Road and Bridge Fund Short.
Chairman Avery called the attention
of the board to the fact that the road
and bridge fund of the county was
short over thousand dollars and
stated that while he was in favor of
spending every cent of money avail
able on the roads and bridges yet he
did not think the board should go in
debt for these purposes. After much
discussion of the matter, in which
Attorney Reese was called on for an
opinion, the board borrowed four
thousand dollars from the general
fund to go into the road and bridge
fund in order to meet the present in
debtedness.
Several bonds of county officers and
notaries public were read and APP
proved by the commissioners. During

take special appropriation from con-
gress.

ported balance OF s1,116.O0.
Mr.. Morrison OF the Southern Con-
struction Company presented to the
board the drawings and plans for the
new bridge. which the board inspected
carefully.

on the 22nd Of this month.

NEED VINOL
its cod liver oil clements heal
and strengthen the lungs

Many people inherit weak lungs
which are likely to be attacked by
consumption. So also are lungs weak
enei by disease or by stubborn
hacking cough.
No matter what the cause Vinol
Strengthens weak lungs and gives one
the power to throw off wasting dis
eases.
The reason that Vinol has such
power to heal and strengthen is be-
cause it contains in highly concen-
trated form all of the curative, medi-
cinal and strengthening elements
of cod liver oil, actually taken from
fresh Gods livers, with the useless,
nauseating oil eliminated and tonic
iron added.
So sure are we of what Vinol will
do that we ask every person in Pensa-
cola suffering from weak lungs, stub
born hacking coughs or any wasting
disease to try vinol on our offer to
return money If it fails. w. H. White
& Co., Druggists.

PENALTY FOR AUTO SPEEDING,
Mark Twain Comes to the Front with
Unique Suggestion,

Mark Twain has a cnaracteristically
original suggestion as TO speed mani.
acs in automobiles He says the law
dresses convicts in such way that
they can not be mistaken for anything
else but zebras at a reasonable dis
lance Then why not says Mark, ox-
tend the idea to the convicts broth
er criminal, the oycrspeeder. who
every day runs over somebody and
escapes? Al present he points out the
automobile numbers are so small that
ordinary eyes can not read them upon
a swiftly receding machine at a dis
lance of loo feet He suggests enlarg-
ing The figures, making them readable
at 100 yards. For offenses CT over
speeding he would have the figures
enlareed, as a penalty in place of a
fine-to he re-enlareed for each sub
sequent offense with auto numbers
readable as far as one could tell a
convict from barber pole none of
these criminals could run over a per
son and escape.
