For Sick Women
To Consider

FIRsr.-That almost every operation
in our hospitals performed upon women
becomes necessary through neglect of
such symptoms as backache, irregular
and painful periods, displacements
of the female organs, pain in the side,
burning sensation in the stomach,
bearing-down pains, nervousness, dig
ziness and sleeplessness.
SECoND.-The medicine that holds
the xecord for the largest number of
absolute cures of female ills is Lydia
Z. Piukham's Vegetable Compound.
1t regulates, strengthens and cures
diseases of the female organism as
nothing else can.
For thirty years It has been helping
women to be strong, curing baclache,
nervousness, kidney troubles, inflam-
nation of the female organs, weak
ness and displacements, regulating
the periods perfectly and overcoming
their pains. 1t has also proved itself
childbirth and the change of life.
THIRD.-The great volume of unso.
licited and grateful testimonials on file
ut the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, many of which are from time to
time published by permission, give alb
solute evidence of the value of Lydia
f. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
Mrs. Pinkham's advice.
Mrs. .Pinkham's Standing Invitation
to toWomen.-Women suffering from any
form of female weakness are invited to
promptly communicate with Mrs. Pink
ham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are
received, opened, read and answered
by women only. From symptoms given,
your trouble may be located and the
quickest and surest way of recovery
advised. Mrs. Pinkham is daughter
in-law of Lydia 4. Pinkham and for
twenty-five years under her direction
and since her decease she has been ad-
vising sick women free of fcharge. Outof
the vast volume of experience in treat
ing female ills Mrs. Pinkham probably
has the very knowledge that will help
your case. Surely, any woman, rich or
poor, is very foolish II she does not take
advantage Of this generous offer Of
assistance.

UNIVERSITY WILL
GO TO GAINESVILLE

AL injunctions restraining the re-
moval of the equipment, etc, of the
University of the State of Florida from
Lake City to Gainesville have been
dissolved, and the bills for complaint
dismissed.
The order of Judge John w. Malone,
of the second judicial Circuit, dis
solving the injunctions and dismissing
the bills, was made Thursday, This
leaves the field clear for the removal of
the University, course which has been
bitterly fought by Lake City residents
and by the city itself, and the work will
proceed without delay.
"The University will positively open
in Gainesville ON the last Wednesday in
September" said chairman N. p. Bry-
AN. of the Board of Educational Control.
1.-THE rumors to the contrary are with
out foundation, and the definite an
nouncement can now be made that the
University will open in Gainesville ON
the date stated.

MORE PAPERS

Notice OF Application for Tenn
pOrary Injunction.
DEFENDANTS NOTIFIED
me Compartments in The Injunction Case
Want Immediate Order to STOP
County Jail Building.

Last week we published synopsis
OF the bill of complaint asking for a
permanent injunction in the matter of
building county Jail at Fort Pierce.
Last Saturday the compliments
served legal notice on the county COM
mlssloners, the county clerk, county
treasurer and Wagner & Dobson, con-
tractors, that temporary Injunction
would be asked for in the same cause.
The date Of the hearing of the PRAYER
for the temporary order is set for next
week Monday, July 30, when both
complainants and defendants will be
represented before Judge Jones and
the matter will be argued pro and con.
In the original bill provision was
made for this action should the com
plalnants deem it necessary to ask fol
the temporary restraint.
The grounds upon which the order is
asked are to the effect that the county
commissioners had no right to contract
to pay for any public building from the
general fund, when special levy had
been made for that purpose, stating
that the general fund was for current
expenses solely. They also state that
it was beyond the board to create such
an Indebtedness for such a cause, and
contrary to law. The bulk of the an.
gument will no doubt be based on this
point.

COAL AND Oil FOUND
ON FLORIDA COAST

Highly interesting and sensation re-
ports have reached Tampa to the effect
that oil and coal have been discovered
ON Anna Maria key as well as oil on the
mainland at some point not defined.
The discovery of the oil and coal was
made 10y Miss Stella Teller, sister of
Senator Teller, Of Colorado, "A lady who
has already made fame and fortune by
her oil discoveries in Texas, and who
has been quietly prospecting in Florida
for some time, and she has announced
that at last her Judgment has been YER
flied 10y the discovery of oil on Anna
Maria key, this being located on the
south side Of the island while the coal
deposit is on tn" other side.
Miss Teller has the very best of ere
dontiaIs, and her work in locating oil in
Texas is we'll known. She has an
nolnccd that the coal and oil exist on
the key in large quantities, and also
that she has discovered oil on the main
land of Florida The news of this dis.
covcry will be hiphly interesting to the
people of Tampa, as many of them
own property ON the key, and will no
doubt hasten to see if they are among
those fortunate enough to possess land
with oil wells upon it,
The people with whom Miss Teller
has come in contact during her pros
pectng tour are very mach impressed
with her and her ability to locate the
oil and coal properties, and they seem
satisfied that hrdiscoyrrjcs are genuine.

SOME LESSONS
FROM FRISCO
The City Has Learned That It
Can Do Without Whisky.
A MATTER OF BUSINESS
Kidding the Country OF Saloons Not The
Work OF Temperance Crank, But
Substantial Business Men.

The remarkable prohibition period in
San Francisco has, during the past
thirty days, been made the text for
more discussion Of the great reform in
the daily press than any other similar
item in recent years. The latest news
from San Francisco is that prohibition
will continue in force and that the city
authorities and the people will take
their time about deciding upon the new
regulations for the business.
What the papers of Frisco and vicinity
have to say regarding these events
certainly deserves attention and pre-
servation. The widely quoted comment
Of the Chronicle that this temporary
example of prohibition has proved IAN
absolute demonstration that the saloons
are responsible for all the crime and
violence" is "A pretty good text for 49,
900 prohibition speeches during the
next quarter of century.
When the Argonaut, in the same vein
declares that 1.-The enforced sobriety
and civic calm resulting from this order
have amazed the state" and that the
chief Of police remarked that he did
not believe San Francisco could be 50
peaceful community under any cir
cumstances, least of all the awful ones
through which she has passed." we be-
gin to see the impressive effect which
this glimpse of civilization where beer
and whisky are excluded is having upon
the secular, quor-advcrtising press.
The San Francisco Bulletin adds its
tribute to prohibition in the terse
declaration: "San Francisco has learned
during the past three weeks that it can
do very we'll without liquor"
The Sacramento Union strengthens
all this testimony with its editorial
assertion that the events in San Fran
cisco have demonstrated that the dis
orderly elements will not remain in any
place where the stimulus of drink is
absent" that "both San Francisco and
San Jose are now practically free of the
class that make the life of the tender
loin;" that 'wthout the evil stimulus
of drink they have found their ways of
life impossible and have quietly skunk
away
Uuder the title of "rhe Saloon Pro-
blem in Frisco" the Colorado Springs
Gazette declares that that city has
chance now to begin anew with clean
slate" and says: SALOONS are an
abomination under any and all circum,
stances and it to abolish them entirely
We're practical it ought to be done by
all means" and in this connection goes
on to note the rapid strides Of the great
reform, "All over the country war IS
being declared on the saloon, not always
by the temperance cranhs, but by
municipal authorities who look at the
question simply as matter of business
and who recognize in the saloon an
economic evil which deter iorates the
quality of the citizenship, depreciates
the value of property, and increases
taxation by making necessary greater
expenditure for police protection and
criminal prosecution.
