ident and his advisers today awaited
the outcome of the mission of fed
eral general Enveris, who has gone
to Celaya to arrange for a quiet en-
try by the constitutionalists into the

his tenure is only temporary pend
ing the occupation of the office by
Carranza The fleet remains at
Vera Cruz and Funston will continue

temporary control of the Mexican
government and took the oath last
night after congress accepted Huer-
ta's resignation Huerta, General
Banquet and several close friends
are fleeing toward the coast and have
probably gone to Puerto, Mexico. 1t
is believed that Huerta is going to
Europe. A special committees Of
federals has gone to Celava to ar
range with the constitutionalist for
a peaceful occupation of the capital.
1t is thought that Carbajal will ac-
cept the Guadalupe plan, whereby
Carranza will become provisional
president pending the elections.

pending in Congress last night, Dep

DEATH OF MRS.
GRACYS GRANDSON

The friends of Mrs. j +. Gracy
sympathize with her in the loss of
her oldest grandson. Carruthers
Gracy He was the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. e. Neal Gracy, who have made
their home in Tampa for some time.
Carruthers having been in bad
health for several months, 1t was
thought best for him to have
change. About a month ago, in
company with his mother, Grand
mother Walker and little sister, he
went to Dawson Springs, Ky. The
doctors there gave them every en-
couragement of his recovery, but as
is often the case, some unexpected
symptom developed, and Sunday
morning his father received the sad
news of his death, after having just
received a very hopeful letter from
him.
Carruthers was IA years old, and
loved by all who knew him. He was
of an unusually active Christian
for one of his age.
A FRIEND.

Like a good many other institu-
tions of its kind the National Bank
of Commerce in New York has a
president, officers, a good reputation
and other desirable assets. Specific
ally, however, the Bank of Commerce
is operating a most interesting fea-
ture of its business in it's meal pro
viion for 400 employe. The entire
top floor of the building is devoted
to the culinary department and the
two restaurants which the former
supplies. To accommodate the large
force of clerks the serving has to be
done in about four shifts. Mrs.
Marion Schaffer whose business it is
to see that these employees are prop
erly fed each day, says: "The bank
whose custom it is to serve luncheon,
figures that if a man goes out for
his meal he undoubtedly consumes
half an hour going to and coming
from the restaurant. Then another
half hour is used up in consuming
his meal. But If he only has to go
upstairs, half an hour is saved to
the bank. Moreover with an ex-
pert dietitian in charge of the menu,
the employe is assured of nutri-
tious as we'll as palatable lunch
con. And the health of the employe
is of supreme Importance to the
bank, for looking at the matter in
a purely businesslike light, it means
SO much less in sick leave and sub
stitutes.'

EX--KENTUCKIAN F N d S
FLORIDA BETTER THAN
FORMER HOME.

Edmonton, KY, July 10, 1914
Dear Editor:
am having a good time in my
native land. The latch string
hangs outside to me wherever I
90. The hospitality peculiar to
this people is still in evidence.
1t is hot and very dry. They
have made fine wheat crops, the
best in years; but oats, meadows
and gardens are almost failure.
Corn and tobacco are still on the
safe side If it rains soon. There
IS fairly good fruit crop, but
little is ripening yet. The dry
weather is doing it lots of harm.
Up-to-date progressiveness is
not much in evidence up here.
While some homes are kept in
good condition, many are badly
neglected. Some OF the bottom
lands that have been in cultiva-
tion a hundred years are making
good crops yet, while the uplands
in many places are washed away
and gone forever.
The good roads proposition is
still in the background. The
public roads are little better than
they were twenty years ago. /
have travelled over many miles of
road in three different counties
and have only met one automo-
bile. Such vehicles are an infre-
quent proposition in these parts.
I am a loyal native of this
grand old Commonwealth, but in
an impartial comparison
the odds are strictly in favor of
the Sunny Southland, where Il
have cast my lot.

GOOD ROADS FOR POLK
COUNTY.

Does 1t ever occur to the aver
age taxpayer III Polk County
that he is paying the tax every
year for good roads without hav-
ING the roads and without any
necessary blame being attached
to the County Commissioners? ?
Yet such is the fact, and the rea-
son is evident if one stops for
a moment to look carefully into
the matter. For instance, the
road and bridge tax brings IN this
year about one hundred thousand
dollars, twenty thousand dollars
Of which goes to the incorpor-
ated towns, leaving about eighty
thousand dollars for the building
and mnintnance of county roads.
Each Commissioner is entitled,
under the law, to his proportion
OF this amount for his particu-
lar district, making an apportion-
ment of about sixteen thousand
dollars for road building and
maintenance in each district of
the county. 1t will readily be
seen that no so-called permanent
roads could be built with such
a small sum Of money, and al
most all of it is used practically
in maintenance of roads with
very little in the way of extern
1t is easily figured out that the
sion.
net amount of eighty thousand
dollars received from taxation
for road purposes would pay the
interest, provide a sinking fund
large enough for the retirement
of long time bonds and leave
substantial balance for the main
tenance Of a large system of
GOOD roads, and that these
roads could be built NOW, so
that the present generation
might have the benefit of them
and the county move aggressive
ly along the line of agricultural
development, which is not possi-
BILE with such roads Tor none at
alb as the prospective settlers
are invited now to tie up to.
Polk County is a little behind
the other progressive counties in
the State and it is in order to
make some plans and take some
early action in this matter that |
the meeting is called for at Bar
tow next Monday, the goth, at |
which time a strong and infuen-
tial body of the taxpayers are
urged to be present to organize
a Good Roads Association for the |
good roads covering every set
tied portion of the county.
Don't fail to be on hand with |
your neighbors.

YOUR HAIR NEEDS
 PARlSIAN SAGE
It Quickly Removes Dandruff, Stops
 Falling Hair and Scalp Itch.

Just because your hair is full of dandruff, thin, streaky, dull, and never will do up to look pretty, do not think it must be so.

 Parisian Sage is one of the most helpful and invigorating tonics known. Just one application stops itching head, removes every trace of dandruff, cleanses the hair and scalp of all dust and excess oil. It goes right to the hair roots, stimulating them and fur- nishing the nourishment that is need ed = the hair becomes soft, huffy abundant and radiant with life
 Parisian Sage not only saves the hair and stimplates 1t to grow long and heavy, but gives it an incompar- able gloss and beauty.
 Get bottle from Lee & Osgood, or any drug or toilet counter. It's not expensive and you cannot be disap- pointed with this delicately perfuned and helpful tonic, for even the first ap- plication will give the hair beauty and charm.
