Our experience waS that one meets
delay in the Everglades. but not dan
ger The water is pure and sweet and
food plentiful enough. Limpkins taste
like young turkeys. All members of
the heron family are likely t. be found
in the glades, and most other birds are
fair food. Snails, which abound, are
delicacies when called perlwinkles. You
would pay a dollar a portion in New
York for the frogs that are yours for
the catching in the glades. There are
plenty of turtle. which posssss all the
good qualities, except cost, of the green
turtle or the terrapin. A few fruits
can be had for dessert-cocoa plums,
custard apples and pawpaws-while
the leaves Of the sweet bay make a
fragrant beverage. Crossing the Ever
glades of Florida in canoe Is not an
adventure; it is a picnic.-A. w. Dim

Gow would you like to be forced to
invest $1,000 for clothing whether you
had the money or wanted to or not?
This is what an army officer holding
a commission in Uncle Sans service
has to do much oftener than he likes.
II he does not happen to have the ready
cash land many of them do not have
it) he is forced by army regulations to
buy enough clothes on credit to tog out
fifteen men.
1t Is an army secret, but some of
the lieutenants, fresh from West Point
two years ago, have only recently fin
ished paying for their first 81 900 worth
of clothes. Their salvation Is that their
credit is good with the tailors who ca
ter to the army officers trade. All the
uniforms are tailor made. 1t is nothing
out Of the ordinary for an army officer
to be paying for his clothes on the in
stallment plan. That is one part of the
army officers life that will probably
not appear romantic-especially to the
women.
But the rigid requirements make II
necessary for the officer to spend
large sum of money for his clothes or
suffer a penalty for not having them
The pay of Il second lieutenant is
$1,040 year. One Of the first things
he has to do on receiving his commits
sion is to fit himself with clothes to
meet the required regulations. In the
first place, he has to have service uni
forms of olive drab and khaki for sum
mer and winter wear. There must be
one kind of service while mounted and
another kind while dismounted.
1t requires not less than four khaki
uniforms Of wash goods for field serv-
ice. There are trousers for use while
dlsmomted and the riding breeches.
With the service uniform go the boots,
shoes, pigskin leggings, cap, service
hat. saddle blanket to match uniform.
leather equipment and few other
things. Then there are dress uniforms
for dismounted service, with black
boots and black shoes, cap, cape, over
coat, hat and helmet
There must be two sets for summer
and two sets for winter of all the diff
ferent uniforms. Then come the Off
cial dress uniforms for mounted and
dismounted service. With the official
dress 40 gold shoulder knots and
belt of gold costing about $50 cap, hat.
patent leather shoes and boots. Next
are the white shoes and cap. Then
comes the social full dress uniform for
evening wear, with hat, patent leather
boots and shoes. purely for social af-
fairs.
These are not all. There must be
mess jacket, rancoat of certain color
and flannel shirts. The officers have
TO furnish their own horses, saddles
and blankets. They have to pay their
own board and for fuel and lights.
They even have to buy the furnishings
for their quarters. Uncle Sam only
furnishes the shelter and the commits

proach her she merely points the fore
finger of her left hand at him. and he
dies! The ghost was originally one of
the temple dancing girls famous all
over the town for her striking beauty.
The temple authorities raised objec-

her to creep out quietly at II every
night and bathe in the river at Tennur.

When the Sen Wa. Fresh Water

When the sen was Fresh water.
The ocean was once merely brackish
and not salt, as it is now. This was
when the earth was in its first youth
and before there was any land showing
at all or any animal life in the water.
At this time the water was gradually
cooling from its original state Of steam,
and the salts were slowly undergoing
the change from gases into solids.
Then came the appearance of land and
later on rivers, which gradually wash
ed down more and more salts. while at
the bottom Of the ocean itself chemical
action was constantly adding more
brine to the waters. At present 1t Is
estimated there are in the worlds
oceaus 1000, 900 cubic miles of salt, and
the most astonishing thing about it is
that if all the salt could be taken out
In a moment the level of the water
would not drop one single inch.

No Change Necessary
In RexaII Remedies

The new Pure Food Law requires every pat
ent medicine manufacturer to tell just what dan
gerous drug is in his medicine. Certain period
icals interested in patent medicine reform have
declared that the formulas of many patent medi-
cines will have to be changed before the manu-
facturers will dare conform with this law. These
periodicals also declare that the public will never
know of these changes, and never know what
these remedies formerly contained.
This suspicion however, cannot rest upon Rex-
all Remedies. You. have absolute proof that
Rexall Remedies have not been changed to
form with the new Pure Food Law, because you

toner who asked for them.
No one Rexall Remedy vas ever claimed to
be a "cure -all"-each of the 800 remedies is de-
signed to cure a certain human ill-and does it,
These 800 remedies we're selected from among
thousands because they were the most reliable
and successful cures in the world. Far from
wishing to conceal The formulas of these remedies,
we are proud to tell just what they are, and al
ways ave been. -.
That's where the Rexall plan goes further to
safeguard you than does the Pure Food Law.
Even now you'll only know the dangerous drugs
in other patent medicines while you have always
been able to know the complete formulas of Rex
all Remedies
The Rexall guarantee has been the greatest
evidence of the sincerity back of the Rexall Rem
edies. For four years Rexall druggists have
offered to return the money to any one who
brought back an empty Rexal bottle or package
and said they were not satisfied.
We, as one of the Rexall druggists, feel gen.
uine satisfaction in having been able to supply
this community for four years with one line of
medicines which the United States Govern
ment by its new Pure Food Law shows were
alaOays made right and sold right, and have de-
served every bit of the faith you have had in
them.
The Pure Food Law may necessitate changes
in other medicines, but it only endorses Rexall

mxALL "ss" HAIR TONIC

The famous Rexall "93' Hair Tonic is
composed in chief of Resorcin, Beta Naph-
thol and Pilocarpin.
Resorcin is one OF the latest and most
effective germ-killers discovered by science,
and in connection with Beta Naphthol,
which is both germicidal and antiseptic,
a combination Is formed which not only
destroys the germs which rob the hair OF
its nutriment, but creates a clean and
healthy condition of the scalp, which pre-
vents the development of new germs.
Pilocarpin is we'll known agent for re-
storing the hair to its natural color, where
the loss of color has been due to disease
Of the scalp. 1t is not a coloring matter or
dye.
This combination of .curatives mixed
with alcohol as a stimulant, perfects the
most effective remedy for hair and scalp
troubles known today. Per bottle, soc.

RISKS HIS LIFE TO
SAVE HORSES

Risking his life In an heroic attempt
to save eighteen horses from incinera-
tion, PatroIman George Small entered
the burning barn of Patrick O'ROurke
at 1920 Folsom street last night and
succeeded, singIe-handed, in keeping
the flames In check until eight of the
horses had been liberated from their
stalls. Small broke into the stable be-
fore the Hremen arrived the scene.
Seizing an emergency hose that was
hanging on the wall, he turned on the
water and kept a stream playing on the
burning hay while others cut the
halter ropes and freed the eight horses
in the nearest stalls. Ten other horses,
who were stabbed In the rear of the
barn, perished In the flames.
The fire. which was the most de-
structive blaze that has attacked the
new construction in the burned dis
trict, gutted O'Rourke's barn, de-
stroyed the building adjacent occupied
by the saloon of Thomas Hickey, partly
burned the blacksmith shop of Christian
Dahl on the other side. and, spreading
in the rear, consumed the stables of
the German Thomas Draying Com
pany. In this latter building were
forty horses. which were liberated soon
after the blaze was discovered. There
was no time to more than cut the ropes
and drive them out into the street
The frightened animals dashed off in
all directions. Many of them had not
been recaptured last night
Alarms were turned in from three
different boxes. six engine companies
responding. The loss will be in tho
neighborhood of $4,000. the greater part
of which was not covered by insur-
ance. In Hickeys bar were s2500 worth
of fixtures. They were uninsured.
