OF INTEREST
TO PARENTS
Importance Of Attention to the
Health Of a Child During Years
Of Rapid Growth.

School children who are nervous, who
cannot sit quietly on chair, who are
always dropping things, and perhaps
have twitching of the muscles of the
face, need DR.. Wiiliams' Pink Pills at
once.
Growing girls who become pale and
thin, who have tickle Rppetites; who
are out of breath after climbing the
stairs, and who have palpitation OF the
heart after the least exertion, need
them also.
Parents Of such children should not
delay the treatment. Nervous children
do not develop properly. A sickly girl
hood means a sickly womanhood and
lack OF blood during the years of most
rapid growth means fiat-chested, listlesH
ambitionless men and women later on.
Pure, rich, red blood is what is need
ed. Strength for the nerves follows
naturally. The time to correct the
need Of these is now, before any moro
harm is done.

for Pale People. They seemed to give
me new blood right away and my
cheeks became rosy, which they never
had been before. continued with the
pills until / was completely cured.
Since then I have used the pills after
the birth of my child and found that
they built me right up

NO STOP
At DAY1ONA
TOMORROW
SPECIAL WILL PASS THROUGH
ON THE WAY TO KEY WEST.
STOP OF is MINUTES AT THIS
PLACE Is OFFERED BUT THE
OFFER Is TURNED DOWN BY
CITIZENS.

There will be no stop at Daytona
of the special train carrying the
delegation of congressman, foreign
diplomats and dignitaries to the Key
West Oversee celebration, when it
passes through this city tomorrow al
IennoOn
In spite of efforts made to arrange
stop OF the train to give the pas
Sengefs an opportunity to see the
prettiest winter resort in the world,
no such arrangement could be made
and the only sight of Daytona for
those on the special will be from the
car windows. Arrangements have
been made for the special to make
several stops on its way down the
East Coast, but the city of Daytona,
the prettiest of them all, is not in
ciuded in the list.
A wire from Congressman Frank
Clark received Friday night said
the special will stop Is minutes at
Bunnell and asked ID the Daytona
citizens would like that time spent
here. The answer was a demand
for a sop of AN hour at this place
or no stop. A stop of Is minutes
would give the visitors a chance to
see onLy the least attractive part Of
the city and would be only a poor
advertisement for the city of Day
tona. 1t is considered preferable for
the train 10 pass through without any
stop than to stop for Is minutes.
The special will be the first of
the Key West trains to pass through
Daytona tomorrow afternoon and the
first section of this train should pass
here about O'Clock, unless the train
is delayed or the stops north of here
are made longer than planned at this
time. The train will start from Jack
sonville at 1880 O'Clock Sunday fore
noon and stop of two hours Is
planned for st. Augustine, The first
section will be followed closely by the
second section and these trains will
be followed by the two sections of
the regular through train from New
York, due here at 5:56 o'clock.
Henry M. Flagler will join the
special party at Palm Beach on its
way south and make the rest of the
Journey to Key West.

ORDINANCES
SHOULD Be
OBSERVED
BY DRIVERS OF ALL VEHICLES
ON THE STREETS OF DAYTONA
LETTER FROM WELL KNOWN
DRIVER TO THE DAILY NEWS
SUGGESTS THERE SHOULD BE
LESS CORNER CUTTING.

That the drivers of many vehicles
On the streets of Daytona are grow
ing careless in the observance OF the
city ordinances requiring a strict
compliance with the rule of the
road, and that serious accidents are
liable to result unless these drivers
are made to comply with the ordi-
nances, is the observation of one
prominent diver here, and this
driver calls attention to this laxity
In letter to the Daily News.
The agitation of the city officials
last winter for a more strict observ-
ance OF the city ordinances regulat-
ing the handling of vehicles on the
streets resulted in drivers taking
great care to strictly observe the
rune OF the road. This year the
drivers have apparently been care
ful to keep to the right" but the
lack or observance has been in cut-
ting short corners, instead of taking
the long turn, and several serious ac-
cldents have been narrowly ayerted
at the busy corners.
The corner of Magnolia auenue
and Beach street is one of the bust
est IN the city, particularly In the
middle afternoon and great care
should be exercised by all drivers In
turning this corner. The letter to
the Daily News Is as follows:
Editor Daily News:-In view OF
the large number of automobiles and
vehicles and which will be increased
on our sire It's, a few suggestions may
be timely: The great danger of &C.
cidents is the failure of many i'm not
observing the rules of the road as
Dr0Vlnpn hu
should strictly obey and use great
care particularly at street CROSSINGS.
where there is great danger of Sc
rious accidents.
we say to pedestrians that they
nave the right-of-way against every
thlhg at street CROSSINGS in line
with the sidewalk, and when they
start across the street they should
not stop but keep moving when all We
hleies,I particularly automobiles. will
drive to pass in front or rear. II
there Is not room they should stop.
serious violation of the or.
dlnanee, and which is sure to cause
accidents, is cutting across the cor.
hers which can be seen continually
dt the root OF Magnolia avenue. II
marshal or any official will take a
stand there one afternoon and get
busy the mayors office would soon
be filled with vio!ators.
As rule nearly all horse ye-
hicles are driven in the middle Of
the street and when signaled from
behind it takes the driver a long
while to move to the right side.
where he should be all of the time
and frequently he will keep straight
ahead when there is not room in
places on narrow streets to pass
him on the left.
