Dancers of Draft.

Drafts feel best when we are hot and perspiring, just when they are most dangerous, and the result is neuralgia, stiff neck, sore muscles or sometimes an attack of rheumatism. In such cases apply Sloan's Eminent. It stimulates circulation tp the sore and painful part. The blood flows freely and in a short time the stiffness and pain leaves. Those suffering from neuralgia or neu- ralgic headache will find one or two applications of Sloans Eminent will give grateful relief. The agonizing pain gives way to a tingling sensation of comfort and warmth and quiet rest and sleep is possible. Good for neuri- tis. too. Price 25c. at your druggist.

ENTERTAINMENT FOR

Grand Master w. U. Lathrop will
have reason to long remember the
first official visit which he paid to
Pensacola, for, from the time of his
arrival yesterday he was in charge of
specially-appointed. local entertain
ment committe, who showed him

terday morning, and was met at the
train by a welcoming committee.
Later in the day he was shown around
the city and taken to the aero station.
Although there were no fights, on
account of the foggy weather, the dis

to the other, enjoyed trip aboard
and all through the big cruiser North

TRANSATLANTIC
SERVICE To STOP

The Western Union Telegraph
Company yesterday announced that
effective at once, due to the shortage
of facilities, it will be necessary to
suspend for few days the handling
of Transatlantic deferred messages.
Every effort viii be made to restore
service and cable letters at the
earliest moment, and the public will
be promptly advised as soon as con-
ditions permit the restoration of these
services.
The company states that the neces-
sity for this action is greatly re-
GREETED, but the suspension of de-
ferred service by other Trans-Atlan-
tic cable companies some days ago,
has resulted in a flood of deferred
messages and it has become neces-
sary, in order 60 protect the COM
pany's regular patrons, to Temporal
rily suspend all but the regular full
paid service.

how the allies built their defenses
at salonik to meet the threatened
drive by the Austro- Germans and
Bulgarians, although it was asserted
that the drive would not take place.

astir. Running eastward across the
two railroads from Saloniki and pa
rallel to the line connecting these
railroads, the defenses face Ghev-
geli in the center and Dorian on the
extreme right. Other defenses have
been built south of the line here in

rived unannounced in Saloniki and
conferred at length with General
Sarrail, the French commander.
