Of men rush madly after the wealth

tentment, luXurles and friends, came
yesterday a cry from among those
who had faltered at the pace.
1t was the cry from two homes,
from two invalids, sick almost unto
death A cry for friend Who would
help TO make the few more months
cf their lives brighter.
In a little two-room house at
Eighth and Forest in Parkdale addi-
tion lies a young woman, not vet 20
years of age Doctors have done all
that could be done to alleviate the
mark of the white plague. Eva Coy
has been told that medicine and medi-
cal science can do but little else to
save her life. Only nature can keep
the mantle of death from falling
about her worn and pain-riddcn
fcIm.
Unless she is sent imne ediately to a
dr!er and higher climate, she will
soon 20 the way OF her mother who
passed away but two years aco. "A VIC
tim of tuberculosis. This is one story
here is the other;
Standing well back from the inter-
section of Tenth and Elgin, a little

orly recently has been told that un-
less he is taken to a better climate, he
Glso will die.
Home Is Gift.
The home has been gift OF
friends. Neighbors in their spare mo-
nents erected the walls of the cot
taCe and sealed the roof over the head
Of the invalid. But other friends are
needed.
Seven years ago this man. then an
almost perfect specimen of man
hood, married. soon aftorward the
finger of the plague touched into the
happy home and touched the shoulder
of the bridegroom.
The young wife, to provide medi-
cal attention and food for the hus-
band, sought employment in a laun-
dry. Every day since she began work.
she had shaved from early morn until
the last. over the hot irons and watts
OF the laundry. She was prolonginG
the life of her loved one. But this
was not enough. Doctors told of the
only ultimate hope which lay in NOV
ing to different climate. The sal

for that.

A Piano Announcement
Of Utmost Importance

Several times during our % years j
in the piano business circumstances
have enabled us to offer extraordinary
values in Pianos and Player-Pianos.
Numerous times we have bought
stocks of bankrupt piano concerns, and
always offer these stocks to the Pensa-
cola public at an immense saving.
Every December in the past 10 years.
we have sold carload after carload of
new Kranich & Bach, Emerson, Pack
ard, Lester, Bond and Lindeman
Pianos. A great many of the buyers
of these instruments had silent pianos
which we took in part payment on these
world-renowned player-pianos.
Since the holidays we have been over
hauling these instruments, and our I'M
surpassed corps of piano builders now
have them in excellent shape, and they
are now on our floors for sale
We want to dispose of them quickly,
and to do so we have put these extraor-
binary low prices on them, so today, we,
the largest exclusive piano dealers inthe
states of Florida and Alabama, an
nounce a piano-selling event that far
surpasses in Importance anything we
have done before in our history
We also offer splendid new instru-
ments at from 1919 to 300 reduction.

An INCENTIVE TO VERMONT.

A glance at the prize awards of the
New England fruit show, as printed com.
plcte in Fridays Times, indicates to a
certain extent the awakening of interest
by Vermont fruit growers in the POSSIBLE
ties of their business, Practically one
half of those awards went to Vermont
fruit growers, there being Al first prizes,
80 second prizes, 81 third prizes, 10 fourth
prizes and three fifth prizes. Vermont
ers' success was the more notable mas
much as the show just held at Montpe
lier was considered to have been one of
the best ever given by the organization,
The result must have been particularly
gratifying to horticulturalsts in Yer
mont and to those Others who are anx.
ious to have the fruit growing interests
of the state take their rightful place in
the country. Moreover, the addresses
given at the show and at the meetings
of the Vermont State Horticultural so
ciety cannot fail to prove an inspiration
to those people who were present and to
those who were permitted to keep in
touch with the meetings through the
press reports. The apple growing in
dustry in Vermont should make consid
cradle progress under the impetus of the
exhibition.

if the power proposals did not constitute
a hold-up on company which would be
its competitor in the event that the per
init is granted. He suggested that it
would be possible for a corporation to OBJ
tain franchise and sell il. To which
Alderman Glysson replied that the pro
posed franchise would be so framed as to
inhibit the corporation from making such
a move. Alderman Healy then gave it as
his opinion that nothing would prevent
the corporation from selling its business
to another corporation. He suggested,
too, that the corporation draft a fran
chise which would meet the approval of
its promoters and then submit it to the
council for consideration. The suggestion
did not find favor and Alderman Glys-

CURRENT COMMENT
Norway's Shipping Losses.

Quite apart from the international as
pect of the matter, the question of the
continued sinking of Norwegian mer
chantmen by German submarines is one
of very immediate national consequence
to Norway herself. One of the effects of
the war, upon Norway, has been to bring
about a remarkable expansion in her
mercantile marine. Over a year ago,
dispatches from Christiania to this paper
showed that the shipping industry in
Norway was in the greatest state of ac-
tivity, and had already brought large
sums OF money into the country. The
enormously high freights induced the
owners of "any ships capable of float
ing" to put them into service. One ship
ping company after another was started;
whilst entirely new lines were opened
up, so that new markets might be as
sured at the end OF the war, when the
overseas trade of the world was renewed.
Then again, the shipbuilding industry
in the country expanded beyond all rec.
ignition, Shipbuildlng yards carried out
extensive alterations to make it posi-
BILE greatly to increase their output;
whilst entirely new yards were estab-
lished in various centers. This condition
of unprecedented prosperity gave rise to
a great deal OF speculation, New ship
ping companies sprang up like mush-
rooms. The newspapers were filled with
advertisements inviting people to take
up shipping stock, whilst steamers were
bought recklessly in both Japan and
America at fabulous prices.
From all this it is clear enough that
the present attack on Norwegian ship
ping is being brought home much more
generally to the Norwegian public than
t it only concerned such comparatively
small shipping interests as existed be-
ore the war. It is more than probable
hat the great mass of people, who have
my money at all to invest, have it in
rested in the shipping or allied indus
ries, and the damage that is occasioned
hese interests by the uncertainty ere
ted by the German naval policy is much
.reater than the actual value of the
hipping lost.
What exactly may be the outcome of
he negotiations still in progress be-
ween Christiania and Berlin on the
uestion, it would be useless to attempt
o predict. Norway's determination
realty to increase her mercantile ma
inc is no doubt sound policy. 1t is,
owever, clear enough to those who have
iven the matter any thought, that she
-ould do well to reconsider her method
f carrying it out, in regard to both
and ship buyina-Chris-

Organization.

Richmond, Nov. lS.-At meeting OF
