Ever since the discovery Of uric
acid in the Blood by Seheele, in IT'S,
and the bad effect it had upon the
body, scientists and physicians have
striven to rid the tissues and the
blood of this poison. Because Of its
over-abundance in the system it
causes backache, pains here and there,
rheumatism, gout, gravel, neuralgia
and seiatica. 1t was DR.. Pierce who
discovered a new agent, called "An-
uric" which will throw out and COM
pletely eradicate this uric acid from
the system. "An-uric" is 81 times
more potent than lithia, and conse-
quently you need no longer fear mus
cular or articular rheumatism or
gout, or many other diseases which
are dependent on an accumulation. of

NEW OAK GROVE
SCHOOL BUILDING
is DEDICATED

The new Oak Grove school build
ings, one of the handsomest struc-
lures of its character erected in the
country by the board of public in
struction, was dedicated yesterday
with appropriate exercises. Scott M.
Loftin was the principal speaker of
the day.
The building is constructed of brick,
being the first erected outside the city
of that material. 1t is of four rooms,
we'll finished and credit to the COM
rnunity. It's cost was nominal by
reason of the enterprise of the Oak
Grove citizens, who volunteered to
haul free all of the material as well
as assist in the work, and this enabled
the contractor, III. r. Wainwright, to
erect the building at comparatively
small cost to the county.
Prof. Roche Russ is principal of
the school, with Misses Rosa ant
Elizabeth Baker as assistants. There
are about 165 pupils with eight
grades and the morning was occupied
in organizing.
At noon an excellent dinner was
served on the grounds, and after,
wards the dedication ceremonies be
gan with an address by Rev. J. T
Fillingim, who spoke for the patrons
of the school. Scott M. Loftin ther
made the dedication address, and was
followed by L. X. Gilmore for The
school board. Rev. Ira Roberts made
short address. The ceremony was
closed with short talk by Prof. Russ
Among the Pensacolians, besides
Mr.. Loftin attending, were Judge
Kirke Monroe, James Macgibbon
clerk of the circuit court, and Sheriff
A. Cary Ellis.

Another remarkable case! More
positive proof Fisher certainly has
shown results. Here is a report made
by a young man living in Denison,
Texas. He is Mr.. Walter Overturf.
25 years Of age, living at ia West
Achiscn street, in that city.
Mr.. Overturf had suffered for about
a year from a severe stomach trouble.
He had such symptoms as headaches,
dizziness, short breath, palpitation of
the heart, pains in right side of his
chest, loss of weight, and a ravenous
appetite at times. He was also con-
stipated.

and began using it as directed. After

ASK SUSPENSION
TRAFFIC MEASURE
AND OTHER BUsT-
NESS HOUSES ON EAST GOV
EMINENT STREET PRESENT
PETITION ASKING FOR MODI-
FICATToN.

Wholesale and other business
houses on East Government street,
between jefferson and Tarragona
streets, yesterday afternoon sent a
numerously signed communication to
the mayor and commissioners, asking
for a slight modification of the traffic
ordinance, as it particularly affected
that portion of Government street
wherein the stores are located, the
proprietors of which signed either
their own names or the firm names.
The commissioners disallowed the
request for the stated modification,
concluding that if such was granted
in this case, similar requests which
might possibly come from other Sec
tions would have to be granted, with
the result that shortly there would be
no traffic ordinance worth living up to
in Pensacola.
Those who signed the petition
wanted that part of the ordinance cut
out which forced vehicles when stand
ing at the curb to keep to the right
sides at the curbing where the wagons
stopped for any considerable time, the
allegation being that it was impossi-
BILE at times for wagons to get to
the sidewalk desired, and then, when
loaded, it was necessary, in observance
of the law, to make trips to the near
est corner, thus causing loss of time
and distance.
