No permanent cures OF anatomical

one of very many things. II Is often

COOPERAGE co. To
GREATLY INCREASE
CA opacity
WILL INSTALL MACHINERY FOR
MANUFACTURE OF SLAVES
AND HEADINGS NOW BOUGHT
ELSEWHERE.

The Pensacola Cooperage Company,
located in the northern section of the
city, has just closed for thirteen addi-
tional acres of land which it will use
in increasing the capacity of its plant
and in the storage of material. About
$4,000 will be spent in the installa-
tion Of new machinery and equipment
and the company, when all of the
additions are made win enter the ex-
port business as well as branch out its
domestic trade.
The new plant will be for the man
ufacture Of slaves and headings.
Orders have been placed for the neces-
sary machinery and instead of buying
the manufactured material at other
points the slaves and headings will
be made at the plant. Heretofore this
could not be done, for the company
was not equipped for this purpose.
Oak in its rough state will be brought
here and finished at the plant.
The additional work will give en-
ployment to a force of men about
twice the size of the present one.

VAL TINE NIGHT
BY ROTARY CLUB 4
SUCCESSFUL EVENT
LARGE NUMBER OF LADIES AC-
COMPANIED MEMBERS AND
WERE ENTERTAINED FOR SEW
ERAL HOURS.

Last night was Ladies' Valentine
night for the Rotary club. It was the
second time the ladies had been in
vited to participate in Rotary event
and It was one of the most successful
Of the several meetings. Many ladies
were present at the dinner given at
the San Carlos and a most entertain
ing program was rendered for their
benefit.
President Fisher, in a few we'll
chosen words, welcomed the ladies and
paid them compliment.
Following this the program started
with Louis Robinson making a half
dozen excellent drawings of promi-
nent Rotarians present, each of which
was easily recognizable, and brought
much applause.
A young lady masked and dressed
in pink, added to the enjoyment, when
she appeared in the gallery and rem
dered a song, disappearing without
her identity becoming known.
r. v. C. Smith then took up a col
lection of articles to auction. These
were of little value, consisting of all
purses, turnips wrapped in fancy pa
per and similar articles. Nat Kaiser
paid 40 cents for a small turnip be-
cause it's fancy wrapping had the ap-
pearance of being valuable. Mr.
Smith realized 1882 as result of the
auction which he said he would give
to poor man who came into a store.
Harry Ball objected to such proce-
dure, saying Mr.. Smith had no right
to take the associations funds and
spend them as he liked. Heated words
were passed and the two men engaged
in a scramble over the money when
a policeman appeared, took the money
put it in his pocket and left the meet
ing.
Miss Tucker and Harry Wagenheim
rendered the telephone song "Hello
Frisco" and received much applause,
while John Frenkel and Miss Minet
were cheered when they rendered
songs.

success of Tuesday night by singing,

MORNING.
SPECIAL 70 THE To1rp,,.,

Southport, Feb. 15-About 2 o'clock
Saturday morning fire was discovered
in the Southport Mercantile Co 5
store, and in short while the entire
structure was in flames. The post
Office was located in an adjoining
building which had taken fire. The
postmaster, T. F. Tiller, had consid-
cradle personal belongings in the
building. There was also a barber
shop owned by A. +. Driskell. which
was completely destroyed with all
equipment.
The flames were famed by a brisk
north wind which swept it in the
direction Of the mill property. Heroic
efforts were employed to prevent the
flames from spreading, but the ter
rife heat ignited the roof of the old
store building, constructed by Capt.
S. w. Anderson several years ago,
and it was seen that there could be
no means employed to save the old

two-story structure, so attention was
turned to getting the household effects
out that belonged to the Evans FAM
lily. All the furniture was saved.
The next house in line was that for
merly occupied by the Puppy family,
which at this time Is vacant, but with
the splendid work rendered by the
citizens, who came 60 the alarm, this
building was saved.
The large launch Echo, owned by
Tiller & Blackwell, lay along side the
Southport Mercantile Co.'s dock and
because of the north wind driving the
tide out it was hard aground, and it
took good work to save it and the
warehouse from destruction. There
was an exodus of small launches that
were moored alongside the wharf.

RECIPE To CLEAR
A PIMPLY SKIN
PIMPLES ARE IMPURITIES
SEEKING AN OUTLET THROUGH
SKIN PORES.

Pimples, sores and boils usually re-
suit from toxins, poisons and impu-
rites which are generated in the
bowels and then absorbed into the
blood through the very ducts which
should absorb only nourishment to
sustain the body.
It 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 Gre
ate 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 i'm
purities which often break out all
over the skin in the form of pinples
The surest way to clear the skin of
these eruptions, says a noted author
ity, is to get from any pharmacy
about four ounces of Jads Salts and
take q tablespoonful in a glass Of hot
water each morning before breakfast
for one week. This VII 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 IL
thia. Here you have a pleasant, eff
fervescent drink which usually makes
pimples disappear; cleanses the blood
and is excellent ~ the kidneys as
well.

THE HEART.
How ft Acts In Every Day Life

The human heart in a healthy man
weighs but eleven ounces. 1t beats
from long before birth until death, in
an average lifetime, about seven mil
lion times, allowing seventy beats to
the minute. Every twenty-four hours
this slight organ performs labor equiv
alent to lifting ton of material eighty
feet into the air. II the blood becomes
poor, and filed with poisons from dis
eased kidneys, the heart is not only
starved, but poisoned as well. Tt soon
becomes exhausted and unable to meet
any extraordinary demand which may be
made upon 1t. Supply pure blood; get
the kidneys to working; tone up the
feeble stomach DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery purifies the blood,
relieves the kidneys and tones up the
ahmentary canal Give the heart the
food it needs and it will continue to work
till the natural end of life.

Arrangeme mt of Nests


soiled eggs are very bothersome, and even when thoroughly cleaned they ara very apt to be detected by the customer as washed eggs and discounted accord ingly.
 Hens Seek a Secluded Spot
 The hens views must be considered, too. She is vitally concerned in the matter, and her comfort is no less inl- portant than that of the egg gatherer. If allowed to pursue her own impulses biddy will select an inconspicuous place, usually where it is dark, and where there is little risk of being mo- tested. She does not like to lay in nests that are exposed to the view of the rest of the flock or where she is likely to be frightened or inter- rupteds by the attendant or by anoth- CT uuarrelsome hen; she wants se- clusion, privacy. and those who give their poultry intelligent care will see that these accommodations are pro- vided.
 Frequently egg eating habits, egg bound conditions and other troubles result from faulty nest construction The nest has an important influence on egg production generally. If some are more comfortable and more se- cluded than others the hens will fight for the desirable ones, and in so do- ing break eggs, perhaps, or ipjure themselves. And when eggs are broken and the fowls get taste for them'
