CAN PLACE NAME ON BALLOT.
Ruling of Court Destroys Power Of
Parties,

Jacksonville opinion of Assistant
Attorney General George H. Ethridge,
holding that an elector has the right to
write the name of candidate on a
ballot, together with an opinion of the
supreme court touching on the same
point, virtually destroys the powers of
political executive committees specifying
time limit in which candidates can get
their names printed on the official bal
lot.
This ruling by the supreme court and
assistant attorney general means that
candidate can appear in the field the day
before election if he sees fit to do so.

Mr.. w. c. Nye, of Washington, Yer

experience with catarrh. He probably
knows more about catarrh than a
great many people who make a spec
ia1ty of the subject, for he has had 1t
twenty years himself. There is no
other way for the average person to
learn anything, than experience.
Twenty years wrestling with the prob
lens of cattarh, local treatment and
internal treatment, ought to teach a
man something.
Mr. Nye tried, he says, many So
called catarrh remedies. He also claims
that he received temporary relief from

CHRONIC CATARRH CURED =
Two Cases Well Worth Read m q

Sherman, South Dakota He had been
a sufferer from catarrh for several
years. He also had tried all sorts Of
catarrh remedies. He was advised by
a friend to try Peruna; which he did.
He commenced at once to get better.
He is able to say today that he is a
well man, and he never ceases to rec
ommend Peruna whenever he can get
the chance.
Both of these men are reliable.
honest citizens, respected and useful
in the community where they live.
They did not try Peruna until after
they had tried other things. Like most
people, who find Peruna after every
thing else has failed.
OF course you would save time by
simply buying your Peruna at once
and beginning to take 1T. Then in the
meantime you can write these gentle
men. You will find that not only the
things you have read in this article
are true, but that they have a great
deal more to say in praise of Peruna
than we have quoted from them.
An internal remedy fer catarrh, that
is what Peruna is Whether the ca
tarrh assumes the form Of a common
cold, or whether it proceeds to the
dangerous condition of catarrh OF the
lungs, for all the phases of catarrh
Peruna is the remedy. Bronchitis.
Laryngitis. Pharyngitis. Gastritis.
Cystitis. All these are phases af ca
tarrh. Peruna is the remedy.
The symptoms OF catarrh of the
throat are: First gagging in morning;
hawking stringy mucus. Second. en-
larged tonsils. Third, sore throat at
times. Fourth, snoring when lying on
the back. Fifth, elongated uvula.
Sixth, liberated patches in throat.
Seventh. throat dry, necessitating
clearing throat often. Eighth, coated
tongue. Ninth, inside of throat red.
Tenth, inside of throat smarts and
tickles. (Adv.)

some Of them. But all the time his
catarrh remained. Ringing in the ears.
Muddling of the senses. Dropping in
the throat. This remained with him
year after year.
He began taking Peruna, without
using any local treatment. Just taking
the Peruna, according to the direc-
tions on the bottle.
1t may seem strange to some that
a bad case of chronic catarrh can be
cured without any local treatment
But the fact remains, nevertheless.
The explanation is that catarrh is not
a local disease, but a systematic dis
ease. To be sure, it finds local ex-
preston. That is to say, 1t settles
somewhere. Quite frequently in the
nose and throat. But 1t is a systemic
disease and requires systemic treat
ment. Something to take. Something
that will operate on the whole system.
Nothing short OF this will cure catarrh.
A great many have found this out.
One of the people who have found
It out Is Mr.. Nye. He had had a long
campaign Of treating his catarrh by
the usual methods of treatment, but
until he took Peruna his catarrh kept
recurring. Now he is well. Peruna did
the work
His testimony is the same as many
others who have had similar expert
ences. Sometimes 1T helps a little to
gargle your throat with strong salt
water and to snuff weak salt water
into the nose. Such things help a lit
tie sometimes, but if cure is ever to
be really accomplished 1t will be by
taking Peruna according to the direc-
tons on the bottle. Take 1t right
along regularly, faithfully, until the
catarrh disappears.
Mr.. Nye is very enthusiastic about
Peruna. He stands ready to answer
any inquirer who is seeking a remedy
for catarrh.

Florida Is Fortunate
This Season.

The unusually fine winter in Florida,
coupled with the advantage of a late
spring in the Carolinas. has been
greatly to the advantage of the Florida
truckers and vegetable growers. While
Florida regrets that the rather late
spring will cause the Carolina farm
ers TO lose money. our own people are
not slow to take advantage of the sit
uatdon. Strawberries, peas, beans, let
tuce. cabbage and the great staple GU
cumber are moving north out OF Flor
ida by the train loads.
All over Florida. the people have
something to sell and so far this
spring have been getting fairly good
prices for all these products.
Potato digging will soon be in full
swing in the famous Hastings district
and the crop is said to be enormous.
The fortunate farmers there will i'm
mediately put this potato land into
corn and will get two full crops Of
staple field products from the same
land.
However. It is nothing for this
heaven favored, sun-kissed land to
have several crops the same year.
Man has only to till the soil intelli-
gently; nature does all the rest.

Big Advertisers and
Big Advertising Mediums,

The Journal has probably done more
than any other one factor in West
Florida to develop the advertising field
here and to demonstrate to both the
advertiser and the buyer the value OF
advertising to the man who has some
thing TO buy as well to the man who
has something to SELL
There was time when the man who
spent money for advertising pretended
to think that he was doing 1t to help
the paper" Today he no longer makes
such pretension. He knows that, with
competitors on every side, he must adj
vertise in order to do business at all
There was a time when the man who
read advertisements did so because he
had nothing else to do, with no thought
that 1t meant anything to him or that
he could profit by it. Today. millions
of people depend absolutely on the ad-
vertdsements in the newspapers and
magazines to direct them to the best
stores and the best goods
That Is the reason why men who are
In business And it not only profitable
but necessary to use the advertising
columns OF the newspaper and the
magazine az means OF reaching their
patrons. And they find It as well the
cheapest way to reach those patrons.
Advertising rates sometimes appear
high. but when analysed they usually
figure out as very low cost for the
service that IL rendered.
Those of you who read the Satur-
day Evening Post last week no doubt
noticed the center double page adver-
tisement OF Wrigley's gum. That adj
vertasenent cost s11. 10000. what"
many of you will exclaim- TT can't be
possible that anyone would pay $11.-
10000 for one advertisement In one
issue of any magazine
But It Is possible and It Is fact.
And when you figure it down, the rate
Is not 50 high after all. The Saturday
Evening Post has a circulation of over
2.0o0.0 900 copies. On this basis. the
cost of this double page advertisement
to the advertiser is just I'VE and one
haI IufiB "a tGahiS over hdaL CENT
per copy. Assuming that there are
I'VE readers to each copy. 1t cost the
advertiser one and one tenth mills per
reader.
In no other way could the advertiser
reach 50 many people for the same
amount of money. In fact. the postage
alone on this advertisement. assuming
that 1t could be sent for one cent.
would amount to s2o.ooo.oo If sent to
100000 people.
A smaller space in the Post IS even
cheaper.l The inside cover pages cost
s5.0oo.o0 each. The back cover page
(outside) cost 100000. Figure out
for yourself what the cost per reader is.
This all illustrates that there are big
advertisers. but that there are also big

I notice in Sundays paper, the
booster" boosting Walton county. 1
am glad to see men speak up for their
county and community, and now l
want to say, in my opinion, there is
no county in this great state of Flor
ida, the land Of flowers, better than
Escambia county, with IT'S advantages
Of having the great city Of Pensacola
located as 1t is. We have there one
of the best harbors in the world and in
my opinion Pensacola is the coming
city Of the South.
Escambia county is a good farming
county and is fast coming to the front
It is especially adapted to trucking and
also a good corn and cotton county If
properly managed. IF you will just
think for q moment you will agree
with me- as she took first prize at the
Interstate Fair last year, and she had
to compete with other counties in this
state and also in Alabama. All Es-
Gambia county needs is a little push,
energy and judgment and she will de-
liver the goods, and we extend a hearty
welcome to the homeseekers.
There are a lot of northern people
who want to come South. If snow and
mud and frozen feet and ears have
made life burden to you. If the long
winters have kept you indoors, shut
out from pure air and soft water; IL
the dead branches of the trees ana
plant life are unpleasant to your eyes;
If you love the balrny air and buddIng
flowers the year round, we have them
and there is room for thousands. The
north and the south are no more The
conflict forever is ended from the lakes
to the Gulf of Mexico. One people
united forever in hope gTeets the
promising years No discord again
can discover union cemented by
tears.

The future shall cherish one glory,
