GLOBE TONIC REMEDIES WILL
BE SOLD AT THE REGULAR

People who are dragging around,
hardly able to work, and feel that
they cannot afford to lose any time
from their business, but would like
to get to feeling better and get
themselves built up and get back to
that good feeling, like they used to,
when they could eat and drink any
thing without bad after effects-no
bloating, belching, or shortness of
breath and dizzy feeling of headache
no bad taste in the mouth, espec-
tally in the morning, no bad pains in
the back or any other part of the
body-if that is the way you want to
feel, just get one bottle of Globe
Tonic and take it according to direc-
tons and in few days you will won

paper daily that has told you about
how many people are using and prais-
ing this wonderful medicine, and to
think you have never tried for your
self to find out if Globe Tonic would
not do the same thing for you that it
has done for other people. IF you
try one bottle you will never think of
letting yourself get in that run down
condition again, and when YOU real
ize that Globe Tonic is composed of
herbs, roots, banks, gums and leaves
all carefully selected and combined
together with no mineral or chemical
poison whatever in this combination.

Globe Tonic will do for you what other

address of some of the best people in
your city who have used Globe Tonic
some for rheumatism in different
forms, catarrh in the head, bronchial
tubes, stomach, bowels, kidneys, blad-

Why? because it is a treatment that
acts on the mucus membrane, the lin
ing that coats the inner system. It
cleanses, it heals that lining, carries
that poison out of your stomach, re-
heves those inflamed kidneys, cleans
off the liver, and with these tracts
clear and clean. it acts gently on the

THIS HACKER BOY
STANDS THE GAFF
SLUGGING BOUT WITH HEAVY
WEIGHT SHOWS HE ISN'T
AFRAID TO WORK-BOXING
CARD MONDAY NIGHT GOOD.

Willie Hacker, the speed merchant
from New Orleans, who will try to
take the palm from Joe Lawrence, of
the navy yard, in the lightweight
set-to Monday night, comes heralded
as fox for cleverpess, but he proved
Saturday afternoon that he was a
bear cat when it comes to taking pun
ishment.
For three smuggling rounds he stood
toe to toe with Johnson, middleweight
champ Of the navy, until he grew
into the heavy class, and swapped
wallops that sounded like the punch
Of a mule.
The first round wasn't half over
before Hacker stopped boxing and
simply tried to land as many and
as hefty punches as possible, cheer
fully accepting everything johnson
had to offer, and though he was out
weighed fifty pounds, he stood the
gait gamely.
At times the training exhibish
looked like finish fight, and the fans
have one grand little treat in store
for them at the Business Mems arena
Monday night.
A couple of unskilled but thorough
ly-in-earnest heavies are also SLATED
to meet in debate; and the comic re.
lief of the evenings entertainment
will be furnished by the usual battle
royal and a prelim or so.

BENEFITED BY JOURNAL TRIP
Editor The Pensacola Journal:
am very much pleased to note
the efforts YOU are making to take
a number of our West Florida live
stock men on trip through the stock
raising sections of the middle states
I believe that this trip will result in
more practical good than all the lee
lures that could be given, as it pre-
sents clearly the detailed methods
used by the most successful stock
breeders
West Florida is going to be devel-
oped largely by fruit growing and
general farming, but the foundation
of these pursuits is live stock The
more good live stock we can raise,
the richer will be eur section of the
state.

Russia's DOGS Of Mercy.

A further proof of the patriotism OF
the nonc3H1batant classes in Russia Is
offered by the assiduity and enthu-
siasm with which the proprietors OF
kennels in the capital, in Moscow, and
in other large cities have devoted
themselves to the training of dogs in
tended to be sent to the front as dumb
but noble brothers and sisters of
mercy"
1t has become favorite occupation
of the upper classes to indulge in this
highly serviceable and humanitarian
work. The dogs are being trained not
only to search for the wounded on the
deserted battlefields and to deliver
bandage material and first-aid medica-
ments, but also to warm them and re-
vive them in case of unconsciousness.
The conditions of modern warfare
are such as to make it frequently nee
essary for the soldier to advance to-
wards the enemy's position under fire,
hiding as he advances in bushes,
marshes and glens. In these circum-
stances the tracing of the wounded
would be extremely difficult without
the aid of the canine instinct and in
telligence.

Insect Warriors.

Talking Of insects as warriors, an
amazing proposition was once sub
mitted to the French minister of war
by professor at one of the leading
colleges in Paris. It was that large
blow-fies should be bred and kept in
cages, where they should be fed on
blood placed between the artificial
skin of dummy figures dressed up in
the enemy's uniform.
When war had been declared, the
insects were to be fed on the sap of
certain tropical plants in order to
make them venomous. Then, con-
veyed to the front, they could be re.
leased from their cages to make short
work Of the enemy.

First Catch Your Rat.


In many places of the country rats
have been far greater pests than usual
and this has led a Scranton man to
write as follows to the New York
Times:
! Before coming to Scranton | was
located in a mill, situated on river
bank, and in the fall Of the year we
were always troubled with rats in
large numbers, which caused great
damage and annoyance and we, there
fore, were very much interested in
eliminating the pest. The thing that
we found most efficient in this line
was bacteria called azoa, which will
not affect dogs or cats or poultry, or
pets of that nature, but will inOculate
the rats and, as the bacteria develops,
it destroys the animal Rats being
cannibalistic in their nature, feed on
one another, and in this way they dis
tribute this disease among themselves
and work their own destruction. In
the experiments that were made with
this bacteria in it's early stages, some
of 1t was used on isolated farms, and
later rats were found to be destroyed
by this material three to five miles
from the original place in which it was
fed"

PRICES OF A CENTURY AGO.

Following are the prices of

are taken from charges in an old

property of an Atlanta man:
Eggs, 4c a dozen.
Butter, SC a pound.
Sugar, 10c a pound.
Pepper, SOC a pound.
Coffee, Bic a pound.
Tea, $1.50 a pound.
Bacon, 64c a pound.
Wheat. 40c a bushel.
Oats, I5c a bushel.
Corn, 25c bushel.
Salt, 21c pound.
Our forefathers, it appears,
had no high living cost. Prices
for the necessities as we'll as the
luxuries Of life have gone sky
high compared to the old counter
book. The folks didn't have to
buy gasoline either hundred
years ago.
