ELLEMEHAM ITEMS

| WI. anu MIS-. ROBERT thompson, OIL
Loomis, held series of religious
meetings on Ellemeham, beginning
Wednesday evening, May 14th, and
continued the good work until the fol.
lowing Sunday. Pilgram's Progress
which was given with the stereoptican
proved an interesting and helpful
feature, but not more so than the
splendid sermons and the singing OF
many appealing hymns by Miss C. c.
Mcintosh, which touched and charmed
all who had the pleasure of hearing
her.
Owing to the inclement weather
the services were not quite as well
attended as had been hoped, but great
interest and appreciation were dis
played by those who came and the
community experienced spiritual
uplift, which should continue and
grow with the passing of time.
Sunday there was an all day at
tendance at the school house, where
the meetings were held, with services
in the forenoon and at one O'Clock a
bountiful feast was spread, which had
been brought by the ladies' of the
neighborhood, while Chas. S. Lewis
furnished an abundance of hot coffee
and accessories, which were much ap-
preciated. At $3.50 the Sacrament was
administered for the first time in the
history of Ellemeham to those who
wished to partake, and later came the
organization of an M. E. Sunday
school. The following officers were
elected: Mrs. L. M. Hotchkiss, supt.:
Mrs. Orley Johnson, assistant supt:
Z. b. Noyes. secretary; Ray Hersh-
berger, treasurer; Mrs. ]. S. Hender-
son, organist Miss Josie Johnson.

elected: Orley Johnson, president:
Ray Hershberger, secretary: Ed
Lundstrum, treasurer; Mrs. Florence
Lundstrum, devotional; Mr.. Chas.
Lewis, membership; Miss Eta Hersb-
berger, social.
The hour agreed upon for Sunday
school was 1890 a. m. and the Sec
ond and fourth Sundays of each month
there will be preaching services by
Mr. Thompson Immediately after Sun
day school. All of the residents of
the community, both old and young
are urgently requested to attend.
The charter members of the Admit
Bible class will give banquet toward
the middle of June, the date to be de-
cided upon later.
The friends of the Thompsons, both
Old and new, are heartily grateful for
the labor of love performed by them

TIPS FOR THETOURIST
BY BONNIE BURNHAM

Now that the tourist season is fair
ly on in Pensacola and hundreds of
very satisfactorily interested visitors
are enjoying the situation as 1t is reg
ularly enjoyed away down here on the
gulf coast, where winter time is for one
and all time tabooed. there are mum
bers of brilliant little beauty spots
surrounding Pensacola proper which
should by all means. be included in the
regular business of sight seeing.
Make Pensacola your logical head
quarters, Of course. for Pensacola is
more than capable of taking the very
best care in the world of you.
You have Pensacola bay at your
very feet; you have the wonderful
blues and green's of the great Gulf Of
Mexico only half hours distance
from you; the navy yard, Forts Bar
rancas, Redoubt. McRee and Pickens,
as you know. are easily reached frora
the city, while a trip to the Marine
Ways, a picnic party to Magnolia
Bluff or Palmetto Beach or Lakeview
Park, is not among the impossibilities.
The golf links at the Country club,
the courtesy of which is extended to
the guests OF the San Carlos will prove
of doubtless interest.
There are Bayou Chico and Bayou
Texar to be explored; fishing grounds
to be discovered. yachting parties to
be planned, and almost any real estate
man in the city may be relied upon
to show you an experimental farm
where you will have opportunity
enough to learn just what truck farm
ing In Florida may actually mean as
the industry is fully developed.
These, OF course, are all in easy ac-
cess to the city.
You may, in fact be directed to them
with the least trouble In the world,
and they are probably included in the
itinerary of almost any average Florida
tourist-but there are also other places
OF the most gorgeous and surprising
beauty which are unfortunately sone-
times missed by the most enthusiast
tic, mostly because some one forgot
to tell them where to go to find them.
Places to Visit.
Among the seductively beautiful and
almost unbelievably enhancing spots
in West Florida, hidden away like a
gem of some subdued soft ray, is Five
Mile Bayou. which opens into Gar
niers', another bayou Of the famous
up Sound" country. and located pos
sibly fifty miles from Pensacola, up
Camp Walton way.
There being no other way to reach
The Pensacola journal., 1913-02-16

can conscientious!y say that there are
just as good medicines in the drug
store, compounded in a manufactory,
advertised for sale to the people, just
as good medicines of this kind as the
medicines that the doctors prescribe.
All our best remedies have been first
found by common experience. The
testimony Of one person and another
has spread the news and finally it's use
has become general
This is exactly the way Peruna has
spread among the people. 1t has not
been advertising that has sold Peruna.
Sometimes advertising sells the first
bottle to a person, but afterwards it
must be the merits of Peruna that
sell it.
One person takes Peruna and is
cured of a cough, or cold, OF catarrh,
lung disease or kidney disease, or
stomach disease. Some one of these
arrangements which perhaps the doc
tors have failed to cure, Peruna re-
ieves. He tells his neighbor about 1t.
His neighbor tries 1t for the same pur-
pose and is cured also. He again tells
it and so the news is spread.
Yes, / mean to put myself on record
as saying it is from the experience of
the common people thac we must ex-
pect to sift out the genuine remedies
from the many spurious ones claiming
attention.
AS a doctor myself, who has spent
many years in the study and practice
of medicine, 1 say and shall say again
many times that Peruns is the best
remedy know of to meet the comm /,
everyday climotic ailments to which
the household is subject. And II I
we're keeping house as you are, trying
to keep free from debt and disease, I
should certainly keep a bottle of Pc
runa in the house all the time. (Adv.)

IMMIGRANTS TO
UNITED STATES
EUROPEAN EMIGRATION MANIAC
ERs ARE OF THE OPINION THAT
THIS COUNTRY is GETTING THE
MOST DESIRABLE ELEMENT
THAT ARE LEAVING ENGLAND.

London. Feb. 15.--The United States Is
getting the cream Of the vast emigra ton
which is leaving the British Isles in
constantly increasing stream. This s
the opinion of the London manager of
an American railroad which maintains
one of the most complete emigration bu-
reaus in Europe.
He ascribes this advantage not only
to the superior resources Of the United
States, but to the American immigration
laws. The manager confesses that while
he was an official of the railroad at home
he felt that the laws were too strict, but
residence abroad has taught him that if
anything they are too lax.
The people handled by the American
railroad bureau are business men with
capital to invest, and farmers who want
to start in a new country and who have
enough money to buy small farms. Dur
ing the past year three hundred families
of this description have been sent to the
United States as the result Of the advice
Of this one railroad. and many more have
been sent by other American. agencies, or
have gone on their account. The bureau
manager describes these people as abun-
dainty able to take care of themselves,
even under the adverse conditions pre-
vailing in England but they have man
aged to scrape together a small capital
and they are anxious to get a start in a
country where they can do more for
themselves and their children than they
could ever hope to do in this country
The Polo Enthusiasts.
All England is deeply interested in the
intention Of the polo enthusiasts to do
battle again for the International cup,
and active preparations for the selection
and training of the British team have
been started.
The nucleus for the team will be the
Old Cantabs the strongest side of last
year in Great Britain, and Captains
Cheape and Ritson. The Duke of West
minister has made himself solely respon-
sihle for the ponies which the team will
use in America Walter S. Buckmaster,
aptain and founder of the Old Cantabs
viii lead the English team and will take
the following players with him to Amer
lea on May II; F NJ. Freake, Lord Wode-
house. G. Belville. Captain Ritson and
Captain Cheape. The Duke of West
minister viii send 35 ponies to America
on Nav 3, one week before the team sails.
The players win have about three weeks
practice after landing, but no games with
other teams win be played before the in
ternational matches. During March an
April the team will play a few games at
Eaton.
Buckmaster has never played in the
United States, and has not appeared in
international competition since 1902

GO
HUNTING NEAR
OLOPT.ST. JOE
THE FIRST GAME SIGHTED WAS
A LITTLE ANIMAL WITH LONG.
SILkEN HAIR, BUT THEY COULD
NOT GO BACK TO THEIR SHIP.

Port St. Joe, Feb. ia few days
ago two of the English sailors on one
of the vessels in port, decided to go
hunting, just to see what the bloom
in" country looked like, don't you
know"
They took the ships boat and land
ed at Old Town and were not long in
getting up game. A little animal with
long, silky hair was first seen and
they gave chase. After an exciting
run, one of them secured a tail hold
and bagged the game. To use his own
words: "Hi grabbed i'm by lis bloomip
tail, don't you know, and then there
was an earthquake and eclipse at the
same time and John e refused to
come back with me in the boat and I
walked down the beach, and wen
got back to the ship they wouldn't
let me go aboard, SO I went down to
Strauss's.
Strauss is a little eating house at
the foot Of the dock where you can
get good things to eat at a living
price Strauss has many friends who
sit on the bench in front of his door
and expound the socialist doctrine at
their leisure.
The day on which the sailors went
hunting there was the usual crowd on
the Misunderstanding about Billy Taft
and the Mckinley bill, when big Yon-
son, who was sitting nearest the rail-
road remarked: Il bane tink McKin
ley Bills dead, or a pole cats down
the cellar"
Captain Jack got up and shifted the
air, gazed into the south west and
said: Boys, it looks and smells just
like it did before that bad storm we
had six years ago. I must look after
Peggy's anchor.
The Bull Moose said: We'll, gents
1 must look after my dinner. but If the
air stays as heavy at it is now I don't
think 1 can eat it."
/. BY this time the hunting sailor was
coming around the corner and the
company adjourned by a rising vote.
The hunter looked at the retreating
forms in some surprise and as he Sc
lected the most desirable seat, said
The Pensacola journal., 1913-02-16

with evident satisfaction: "Hi always
said these bloomin' Hamericans was 3

Port Notes.
The steamship Chelford is taking on

r. A. Costin is rejoicing over the
arrival of another girl at his home.
The schooner Gypsum Empress is

crew Of South American Indians

here.
The bark Enos is lying in the stream
waiting for a cargo.
The barge Teddy came over from
Southport last Sunday in tow with a

lived with his family years ago in this
most picturesque of up Sound" ter
ritory.
Camp Walton is the last of this
chain Of settlements-but once at the
camp, you will be given your bearing
soon enough.
You viii be told of Ladies Walk
on the Island, where the ghost of a
"headless" lady is said 70 walk each
night in search of her Spanish lover
of old; of Hollow HILL" which indeed,
is a huge hollow hill of hardened
white sand near the gulf side Of the
island.
You will be taken up to "the pass, IS
which marks the other extreme of
Santa Rosa island from that which
you have already seen, forty-four
miles further back at Fort Pickens.
Carriers Bayou. and the deep,
whispering shadows of Five Mile
Bayou are also easily reached from
Camp Walton. These are all points
very much worth the seeing.
In quite another direction from Pen
sacola, in fact just II miles north of
the city on the L. & n. and then 3
miles into the heart of as gorgeous a
bit of country as you may wish to
see, is 'Dexland," which Mr.. C. A.
Dexter is developing to most inter-
esting extent.
There is a point in Dexland which
is called Dexter Park, and which Is
located on the banks of the Escambia
river and for real Florida scenery, the
kind that you will never be quite able
to forget, it cannot possibly be sur
passed.
A water trip from Pensacola to Bag
dad and Milton, Fla, is one that
should be surely included to make the
winter visit complete. If there is a
more poetic sight in the world than
the grey lashing waters of Black
water bay, fringed with it's live-oaks
sweeping with grey, grey moss, and
the quaint little boat house of the
TomasseIlos, at Bagdad, I have not
seen 1t.
Florida scenery is the most appeal
ing and compelling in all the south
land. 1t affords continuous pleasure
and unending surprises for those who
are willing to worship at its shrine,
and the natural beauties which sur
round Pensacola within a very reason
able radius, are not among the least
of the countless attractions which are
surely and certainly paving the way
for a great winter resort business of
a very near future.

How Can the People Decide
Which Medicine is Best?

try to live properly, yet we are sub
ject to disease and arrangements ike
other people. Occasionally we have
to use drugs. What would you ad-
vise?"
My reply, in part, was as follows:
Let us suppose it was a cough, or
a common cold, or a hoarseness, or a
pain in the chest, or a twinge of rheu-
matism, or a stoppage OF the nose and
discharge from the throat, indicating
catarrh.
What you are after is, first. to cure
yourself of your trouble; and, second,
to gain experience so that you may
cure yourself next time, if you or any
member of your family should be so
afflicted.
If you go to the drug store you buy
Peruna- If it cures you then you know
what to get next time. If it does not
cure you and, it proves to be worth
less, you know what to avoid.
In taking advertised. medicines that
fave definite name you are gradually
learning to distinguish between those
remedies that help and those that do
not.
If a neighbor In whom I have con-
fdence should tell me that they have
purchased a bottle of some advertised
medicine that helped them, should
feel perfectly free to give the medt-
cine a trial. And If I found that the
advertised medicine cured me should
not hesitate to tell my neighbors about
it. I should not hesitate to have my
name published, either, as testifying to
the merits of such a medicine. Moth
ing short Of this would be Justice.
Nothing less than this would be
honest.
The prejudice against advertised
medicines may have had some fou1-
dation in the past. But up to date 1
