Owner Dugan apparently is a busy
man these days, receiving contracts
from players of last years team and
also negotiating with clubs of big

material for the club to make it one
Of the best in the league this season.

Great prosperity will prevail all
the balance Of the current year, and
the present magnificent conditions
will continue at least till the close OF
192O.' asserted William s. Witham,
Of Atlanta, who spent several hours
in this city yesterday. Mr.. William
is connected with several hundred
banks and other financial institutions
in this and adjoining states, and made
his way to the height Of finance
where he now sits because of his
Judgment and acumen regarding men,
conditions and money possibilities.
He is spending few weeks in Miami,
with his family, from which point he
is making trips about the state to
look over situations. He resembles
more retired grocer than he does
the expert financier which he Is;
and is gradually arranging matters
so that less OF his time will be taken
UP in looking after details.
There is an enormous amount Of
money everywhere" continued Mr..
Witham, "and this country is on the
top wave of prosperity. During the
past few years there has been a great
deal Of money made by every line Of
business, wages have been high, and
there have been no idle hands. There
will be none now, If there is a desire
to be employed. look for this con-
dition to continue for at least two
years; then there will be a gradual
return to normal conditions. But de-
cades will pass before the old condi-
tions, those Of half dozen years ago,
will be resumed; and perhaps not
even then"
The multibanker returned last eve
ming to Miami-but will soon, be in
this city again enroute to other por-
lions of Florida.

Head Of Many Banks Predicts
Prosperity For NeNt 1zUO Years

months was contaminated yesterday
when A. f. Bass Of st. Cloud and DR..
Phillips Of Orlando, purchased the
stock Of cattle in this county owned
by w. r. Goodwin Of st. Cloud, esti-
mated to be 1000 head. The trans
action was for cash and amounted to
sac, 900.
w. R. (Riley) Goodwin is one of the
best fknown cattlemen in Osceola
county, and, in addition to his own
herds, he has been looking after cat
tie for other extensive cattle owners
in this section several years. Mr..
Goodwin will continue in the cattle
business, but will be in charge Of
ranches Of other people, to which
work he will devote all his time.
The firm Of Bass & Phillips, com
posed Of DR.. Phillips Of Orlando and
A. F. Bass Of St. Cloud. has become
one OF the largest cattle concerns In
the State, and during the past year
has bought more cattle than any 9th
er one concern in this section of the
State.
Mr.. Bass devotes all his time to
cattle raising, and but few men so
well posted on raising cattle in Flor.
ida as is Mr.. Bass can be found any
where in the country.
Several smaller cattle deals have
been reported lately, and with COM
ing Of compulsory dipping this year
it will be only a short time until the
grade of Florida stock sent out Of
Osceola county will equal some Of the
famous Western cattle that have af-
forded such large part Of Florida's
supply Of meat in years gone by.
Florida cattlemen are coming into
their own, and the st. Cloud section
is ranking with the top-notchers.

There are many half-sick people in
this country; not sick enough to be In
bed, yet they are dragging around all
the time. with first one complaint and
then another. Did you ever stop to
think how very few really sound and
healthy persons there are In this
world? Seems that every one has
some sort Of ailment, and rs per cent
Of these ailments have their beginning
In the stomach, is the statement OF
one authority.
When the stomach fails to perform
its full duty, the food lies heavy and
causes severe pains; sour gas forms
and bloats you up as tight as a drum
sometimes; this gas presses on the
heart and restricts its action, so that
we think we have heart trouble. The
bowels get bound up and we have to
take harsh medicines to blast way
through, and then when this effect
wears off, we are bound right up
again. Soon the kidneys become de-
ranged and fail to strain the impuri-
ties from the blood as 1t passes
through, and the first thing we know
there is a bad case Of rheumatism or
hand, with sore swollen joints and
aching muscles.
Mr.. D. A. Demnack Of LAT River
Ridge, Jacksonville, Fla, says, "My
son and I both have been bothered
with gas in the stomach after meals.
constipation, kidney trouble and slug
gish liver. We have taken much
medicine but none ever did FOR us
what this new medicine Dreco has.
It has simply wiped out our troubles
and made us feel like new again.
There is nothing too good for me to
say about Dreco."
Dreco does not contain any iron.
mercury, potash, or acids Of any kind.
but is made from the, juices and ex.
tracts of herbs, roots, barks and ber-
ries, which act upon the vital organs
and revitalize to a normal state Of
health and activity.
Dreco is sold by modern druggists
throughout the country and is highly
recommended in Lakeland by Red
Cross Pharmacy .-(Adv.)
