aprons with Kate Greenaway figures

ecru linen and has little elbow sleeves
az well as two deep pockets In which
little miiady may stow away treasures
such as beads. pebbles and candles.

Caring For
The Mails

A Scotch saying is a nan had better
never been BORN than have his nails on
Sunday shorn. We know the old for
mula that we cut them on Monday for
health. on Tuesday for wealth, or
Wednesday for a letter, on Thursday
for something better. on Friday for a
wife, OF Saturday for long life and on
Sunday you cut them for evil, as all
that week you will be ruled by the
devil.
Nails are supposed TO grow the thir-
ty-second part Of an inch IN a week, an
inch and a half in a year. The nails
Of the thumb and little finger grow the
most slowly, the middle finger grows
the quickest. They grow quicker in
summer than winter, those of the right
hand quicker than the left and four
times as quickly as the toe nails. Ill
ness and grief affect the nails.
People with broad nails have gentle,
timid, bashful natures, those with mar
row nails are said to be ambitious and
auarrelsome, small nails indicate lit
tlenegs Of mind and c~onceit. round nails
come to lovers Of knowledge. white
marks eugur indigestion.
Lemon juice makes nails smooth and
removes stains. Have lemon Juice and
salt on the washstand and dip the I'm
ger and rub cold cream into the Gu
ticles at night.
To keep the nails In good condition
the scarf kin round the nail should be
pushed back daily with a proper in
strument for the purpose, Before cut

to hold them for a few moments in

MILTON SUBSCRIBER GETS A
WEEKLY INSTEAD OF A DAILY,
JOURNAL AND BELIEVES JOUR-
NAL-NEWs GAME IS AT BOTTOM
OF TROUBLE.

Engaged In busily and proudly tell
ing his co-workers Of the great play
ing ability OF The Journal baseball
team, and how they have for years
triumphed over their rivals in the ma
tional pastime, one of the mailing force
of The Journal recently mailed copy
Of the Weekly Journal to Hon. w. w.
Clark of Milton, instead Of the Daily
Journal, and Mr.. Clark Immediately
grasped the situation and lays the
blame on the forthcoming great game,
In which, as usual, The Journal will be
victorious. This is what he says:
Milton, Fla, Aug. 9, 1911.
"Pensa cola Journal, Pensacola, Fla.
Dear Sirs: What's the matter in
your circulation department? I came
down to the office this morning feeling
somewhat blue owing principally to a
disordered liver and bad nights rest
and was greeted by copy of the Pen
sacola Weekly Journal Of date August
4th, A. D. 1911, instead of my copy OF
the Daily Journal Of this date. You
cannot imagine the disappointment.
Immediately looked up my account
with your company and find that 4
have paid up for Daily Journal until
Feb. 10, 1912. Now, what's the mat
ter? Has the proposed game of ball
with the News put your man out OF
commission? Has he actually taken
fright to such an extent as to mix me
up like this? Or has he turned to the
flowing bowl to drown his sorrows and
permitted it to flow over him?
ANY information leading to a cor
rection of the matter will be appre-
ciated. Hope can face the real
article tomorrow.
Yours truly.

ITS CERTAIN OUTCOME.

The unmitigated gall Of the Even

challenging The Journal champions TO
a game of ball at the new Polo park
this afternoon, has even been noted by
the Montgomery Advertiser bunch and
The Journals Bonnie received the fol-
lowing we'll timed letter yesterday
from Grover Cleveland Hall, who, last
year, was writing editorials and things
for The Journal, but who, as time
passed, Just went from bad to worse,
and from there to the Advertiser.
Grover played as pretty game as
you would want to see last year Tor
the Journal team, too, and, as he says,
led the famous team on to victory IN
a pair Of over-alls and jumper.
This is what he has to say this year:

Dear People: I have just read the
challenge Of the Evening News's shirt
tail crew to that aggregation OF emil
nent and talented journalists and pow
erful sluggers of The Journal. Need

assumptions gall may be diluted ere

Those fellows play ball like an Ala

I led to victory a year ago is more than
my analytic mind can grasp.
But seriously, l wish l could be one
of the witnesses to the forthcoming
game. I remember with pleasure the
great day last year, and the fun pre-
Ceding the conflict. 1t only seems a
few short months. II might interest
you to know that I still have my PAL

fully stored away in the bottom or my

Of anything that would afford me quite

OF course this is not a very hard job,
