WITH ECZEMA
Spots Burst and Ran All Over Face.
Sore and lnflamed. Had to Tie

Freeland, Md abys eczema started
IN little spots and would burst an. run all
over his face and wherever the wate- would
touch his face, it would make another sore.
Pimples would break out and make his face
sore and infamed, and he was very cross
and fretful. 1t was awful. He suffered
fortunes from 1t, and we had to tie mittens
on his hands to keep him from scratching.
We tried everything we knew and had him
to three doctors, but they could not help
him. A friend of mine told me of the Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment and I went to
drug store and bought them. When we
would battle his face with the Cuticura Soap
and apply the Cuticura Ointment, he would
be much better. He would wake up in the
nights and cry with his face and we would
put on some of the Cuticura Ointment and
then he would rest all right. By keeping
this up every day his face began to heal and
then got well altogether. He suffered Just
about year before we used the Cuticura

COUNTY MAKES
APPROPRIATION
FOR TIE FAIR
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGREE
TO SET ASIDE $3.50 FOR THIS
PURPOSE, S25 OF WHICH is Of
FERED AS SPECIAL PREMIUM
FOR CORN GROWN IN THE
COUNTY.

Determined not to be surpassed By
the other counties in the fair dis
trict, Escambia county. through her
board of county commissioners, yes
terday appropriated $3.50 for the Pen
sacola Interstate Fair. which opens in
this city on October %.
Twenty five dollars of this amount
is TO be offered as a prize for the
best fifty ears of corn grown in Es-
Gambia county and exhibited at the
fair, while the remaining 1925 is 70
be applied to the general fund of the
association and used as it is deemed
best.
On recent trip through the va
rious counties of West Florida, Mr.
Lillard, secretary and general man
ager of the Pensacola Interstate Fair,
received pledges from a number OF
the counties that donations would be
made to help carry out the work OF
the fair and several of them offered
a prize of s25 for the best twenty
five ears OF corn raised in the respec-
tive counties.
Sometime ago, Mr.. Lillard appeared
before the Escambia county board OF
commissioners and told them Of the
action of the other counties and urged
them to make an appropriation and
to offer the special prize for corn
in order to stimulate interest in this
department of agriculture.
Because the finances of the coun-
ty were in a rather embarrassed con-
dftion at the time, the matter was de-
ferred, but it was generally. under
stood that the members of the board
were in favor Of approprtating some
thing toward the fair.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Lillard and
Captain T. e. Welles, president of the
Interstate Fair Association, again ap-
peared before the board. with the re-
suit already mentioned:
Both Mr.. Lillard and the members
of the board Of directors of the fail
are very much gratified over the ac-
ton of the board yesterday, as Il
clearly shows that Escambia county
is abreast of the times and is not t.
be left behind by the other West
Florida counties.

4 SOLDIER IS
TURNED OVER
TO The COUNTY
DAN WILSON, CHARGED WITH
CUTTING APOLlNAR ALFONSO,
A SPANIARD, Is NOW IN THE
COUNTY JAIL-ALONSO is RE-
PORTED BETTER.

Dan Wilson, the soldier who was
arrested Tuesday night on the charge
of stabbing Apolinar Alfonso, was
turned over to the county officials
yesterday and is now in the county
jail, having failed to make bond.
Wilson was not given any hearing
in the recorders court, a warrant for
his arrest having already been placed
in the hands of a deputy sheriff and
when the deputy asked Chief Sand
ers for Wilson, the latter readily
agreed to turn him over to the coun-
~ officials.
1t was reported late last night that
Alfonso was resting well and was, ap-
parently, better, although it had been
reported a number of times during
the day that he was dead.
It's said that the soldier now
claims that he did not stab the
Spaniard, but that a negro did the
cutting.

Small Savings
And Great Fortunes.

One of the great faults OF the
young American Of today is his i'm
patience with small results.
Many a man remains in Ignorance
because he is not content to learn one
thing at a time. And many more re-
main on the ragged edge of poverty
because they are not content 10
make money. dollar at time.
Propose to the average young man
of today a safe plan by which he
may invest SIS a week for a year and
draw Is per cent dividend on it, AMI
he will turn UP his nose at 1t. Five
dollars week accumulates to only
$3.50 in a year. and Is per cent Oh
that is only $39-a mere bagatelle
not worth bothering about, thinks
the average young American.
The newspapers tell of the daily
making OF millions. Compared with
such princely profits, the sum of sSs
seems not worth striving for.
But the fact is that Is per cent 81
good profit for any mans money
whether he have little or much. And
the chances are that the young mar
who is not content to have his SIS q
week earn a profit will never have
any larger sum to bait his hook with
An immense proportion of the PEG
pie Of this country live Up to theil
incomes, laying nothing aside for the
traditional rainy day Because they
cannot save a thousand dollars in :
bunch they save nothing.
We hear Of great fortunes made ir
a moment. But that Is not the com.
mon way. Ordinarily great fortune
is built up like stone wall. stone
at a time.
And the young man who declines
TO lay the first stone, because Il
comes so far short OF a wall. vii
never make progress in financial ma
sonry.

Should Prepare
For Panama Canal.

Within eighteen months, probably
within year. the Panama Canal will
be open for the worlds commerce.
The significance Of this fact has not
made the impression that its impor-
lance warrants upon the business men
and commercial organizations of the
United States.
It has been pointed out by many
observers. and particularly by John
Barrett, director Of the PAN American
Union, that every seaport of every
European nation and of every Cen
trail and South American republic
has been and is being improved in
anticipation Of this great commercial
event.
Every European nation is establish
ing connections in Latin America
Even Japan, Australia and New Zea-
land are planning new steamship
lines. All of South America is i'm
proving its harbors and each coun-
try is spending millions of dollars
in building railroads to tap the un-
bounded wealth of the interior of the
countries under the southern cross.
So far, it seems that this country
is doing very little to take advant-
age of the immense potential posi-
bilities to follow the opening Of the
canal.
Every American seaport should
profit and profit immensely by the
Panama canal. There is little doubt
that this will be the direct result.
Yet the degree Of this increased pros
perity viii depend wholly on the ac-
ton Of the people of the individual
seaport cities.
Pensacola has the deepest. biggest
and best harbor in all the south. The
position of the city is strategic as re-
CARDS importing and exporting
Boundiess opportunities are waiting
for this city, if Pensacola takes ad-
vantage of this. The future impor.
ance of this port depends largely on
the will, energy and action Of the
people of Pensacola themselves.
The business interests of this city
should begin, work now.
