"Good-evening. Mr.. Carl" greeted
the man with the smoked glasses, as
the manager neared the table.
How d. do. Mr.. Colton?" There
was q nervous tremor in the man

That strange couple Sydney has been
telling me about? The man who is
sitting there alone?"
Yes. I think there is something
wrong. Would you mind going over
there with me, as though o wished
an introduction? If there is nothing
wrong, l can apologize. If there is,
you can tell me without alarming the
guests. The man did not move nor

to whom crime puzzles were the one

the moment they entered; especially
the voice of the man. Is he still
sitting with one arm resting on the
cloth and the other hand at the stem
of his w~ineglass?
Yes. The captain says that he has
not moved since he sat down. n he
hasn't said a word since the woman
left"
Back between the tables they went.
On all sides of them were laughter
and gayety, richly-dressed women, and
wine-flushed men, who had already
ceased paying attention to the lone
man at the table, and were once more
thinking only of their own good time,
The manager stopped at the table as
though to speak. Cotton stepped
around him and touched the wrist OF
the arm that lay palm down on the
table. His long, slim fingers encircled
the wrist. He raised his head. His
n~ostrils quivered as though some
strange odor has come to them.
The wrist artery has been slashed
in three places" the blind man said
quietly. He has been dead for
hours"
A tingling sound came from the
next table as a convulsive movement
of the girls fingers shivered the straw
stem of her wineglass.

For Is cents you can save your

Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. This will cleanse
the hair Of dust, dirt or excessive oil,
and in just a few moments you have
doubled the beauty of your hair. A
delightful surprise awaits those
whose hair has been neglected or is
scraggy, faded, dry, brittle or thin.
Besides identifying the hair, DAN

please you most will be after a few
weeks use, when you see new hair
fine and downy at first-yes-but
really new hair growing all over the

BODY MRS. NJ KAY
Be SHIPPED NORTH
SERVICES WILL BE CONDUCTED
THIS AFTERNOON AND BODY
WILL BE TAKEN TO NEW JER-
SEY TONIGHT.

Services over the remains of the
late Mrs. William Mckay, who died
in Pensacola Sunday morning, will be
conducted this afternoon at 4 o'clock
at the home of Mrs. Woods, 1908 East
Gadsden street. Rev. Mr.. Moffett,
pastor Of the First Presbyterian
church, will conduct these services,
and tonight the remains will be ship
ped north.
The body, in charge of the grief
stricken husband, will be taken to
0r1nge, New Jersey, for interment.
Deceased was thirty years of age, and
had been here but a short time.
One of the peculiarly sad incidents
in connection with the death of this
lady was the fact that her husband
was not with her at the time. Three
days previous to her taking sick, Mr..
Mckay was ordered to Cleveland, o.,
on business, and he reached Pensacola
in response to a wire telling of his
wife's very serious illness on Monday
night, He came here several weeks
ago to install the hydrogen plant at
the Pensacola aeronautical station,
and, finishing this duty the latter
part of the week, was ordered TO
Cleveland, leaving his wife here, to
follow shortly.

IN
ALL PRECINCTS TO
END NEXT MONDAY
DEPUTIES IN DIFFERENT PRE-
CINCTs WILL KEEP BOOKS
UNTIL MONDAY NIGHT FOR
CONVENIENCE OF VOTERS.

Registration books in each precinct
will be kept open until and through
Monday night of next week, and all
voters are urged to see that they are
properly placed on the books in order
to exercise their right to vote in both
the city and county primaries.
The matter of registration, one
man stated yesterday, should not be
COMPOUNDED with the question of poll
tax paying. The last day for the
payment of polls is Saturday of this
week, and, according to the records
in the office of the tax collector yes
terday, this very important matter
had been neglected by hundreds of
voters in city and county.
Another very important matter
which had evidently been overlooked
by large number is the fact that,
in cities of over 10000 voters must
re-register, and this has been neg
lected by large number in the city.
All naturalized citizens must produce
their naturalization papers before
they will be permitted to re-register,
according to the holding of Mr.. Hicks,
the county registration officer. AS a
number who naturalized in years
gone by have misplaced, lost or de-
stroyed their naturalization papers
duplicate is necessary, and in some
cases duplicate is a source of trou-
bic to procure. Some voters who
have found no trouble for years to
vote are finding the naturalization
question very serious obstacle to
their exercising that right of suffrage
at present.
All voters in Pensacola are re.
quired to re-register in the county,
registration officers office, and the
name of every voter will appear or
four different books. Two of these
are Office copies and two will be usec
in the precincts.
City Registration Officer N. B. Cool
yesterday stated that he was expect.
ing very early in the week a state
ment from the county tax collector
as to what voters had paid their pol
taxes for last year, and who are quail
flied, by reason of having paid fol
the past two years, to vote in the ap
preaching primaries. Although pol
tax receipts were rendered for beinl
marked paid" on the city registra
ton books, he stated that he "wa,
not ready for that business of fxint

DIR. c. R. STUART
SPEAKS TO LARGE
AUDIENCE HERE
is TOURING THIS SECTION OF
FLORIDA IN FAVOR OF PRO-
HIBITION AND DELIVERS A
STRONG ADDRESS.

DR.. George r. Stuart, of Knoxville,
Tenn, who has been a speaker of ma
tional fame for the past quarter of a
century, interested a large audience
at the First Methodist church last
night in the recital of the victories
which have been made in the tenn
perance movement throughout the
country.
DR.. Stuart was introduced by Judge
A. G. Blount, who made mention of
the fact that the lecturer of the eve
ming had been in the anti-saloon CAM
paign for forty years and that for
twenty-five years he had known de-
feat, but that since starting the first
campaign In Tennessee, his native
state, he had seen every state south
Of the Ohio and east of the Missis-
sippi go dry except Florida.
DIR. Stuart stated that in five years
the nation would be dry. Among
some of the remarks made by the
doctor were the statements that the
liquor traffic would go soon, because
this age was one in which nothing
was tolerated if it worked to the in
jury of others; he cited an instance
IN Tennessee, where an entire. herd
OF fine Jerseys was slaughtered be-
cause of the presence of tuberculosis;
of local fine in San Antonio, Texas,
because Of splitting upon the sidewalk
to prevent the spread of tuberculosis:
OF the war upon the mosquito because
IT was demonstrated that yellow
fever was carried by them. He cited
instances Of the discovery of forces
which made for ineficiency and the
part which alcohol has played and
how the great corporations, railroad
brotherhoods, etc., has declared
against the use of alcohol.
No speaker has come to Pensacola
in years who was master of his sub
Ject more than DR.. Stuart.
He spoke under the auspices ~ the
National Anti-Saloon league. and
goes from Pensacola to Milton. where
ne will speak this evening.

RECIPE TO CLEAR
4 PIMPLY SKIN
PIMPLES ARE IMPURITIES SEEK
ING AN OUTLET THROUGH
SKIN PORES.

Pimples, sores and boils usually re-
suit from toxins, poisons and impuri-
ties which are generated in the
bowels and then absorbed into the
blood through the very ducts which
s;3culd absorb only nourishment to
sustain the body.
1t is the function of the kidneys TO
filter impurities from the blood and
cast them out in the form of urine,
but in many instances the bowels
create more toxins and impurities
than the kidneys can eliminate, then
the blood uses the skin pores as the
next best means Of getting rid of
these impurities which often break
out all over the skin in the form OF
pimples.
The surest way to clear the skin of
these eruptions, says noted author
fly, is to get from any pharmacy
about four ounces Of Jad Salts and
take tablespoonful in a glass Of hot
water each morning before breakfast
for one week. This will prevent the
formation of toxins in the bowels. It
also stimulates the kidneys to normal
activity, thus coaxing them to filter
the blood of impurities and clearing
the skin of pimples.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with ithia-

cent drink which usually makes PIN
