The medical fraternity now agrees
that the most common cause of bad
colds is over acidity Of the system, and
that bad cold germs cannot live in an
alkaline system, which is the normal
condition of human beings. Consti-
patton being prevalent wherever bad
colds are found It is only necessary
to do two things: free the system Of
it's excess acids and start the liver
to work, both of which you can do
with Jacobs Liver Salt

Of several alkaline salts that is pleas

LONDON, Nov. 23.-The entire visit
of the prince of Wales to the Bombay
presidency has been a great personal
triumph. says a message received at
the India office from the governor of
Bombay. The departure Of the prince
of Baroda was made the occasion of
another great demonstration. Masses
of people thronging the platform in an
effort to get near the princes car made
it difficult to get the train moving.
The populace, the governor reports,

tunate riots Of last week, to prove their

crops and all legumes such as cowpeas,

The numerous blessings possessed by
Florida in general and Escambia in
particular. must be made known to the
whole country through the various
newspapers of the north and west, and
also by personal advertisement by
lsending men into the large communi-
tiles of the north and west. Let these
men have credentials from the cham
Der of commerce and other official bod
| les and let them be men who can be
relied on to go before official bodies of
other respective communities and tell
them Of our county and bring them
proof in photographs, and give infor-
nation on any and all subjects in re-
gard to the growth of everything in
vegetables, fruits and forage crops.
| Let these men tell others the nature
and quality of the soil, and that it is
possible to raise crops Of any kind
with half the fertilizer, labor and prep
arations required in the north and
west
In the commercial world the large
firms don't depend on their home pa
lpers alone for their advertisement to
represent their goods. They send men
who travel all about and exhibit their
goods, and we can use the same meth
DDS in bringing settlers and home
seekers into Escambia county.
The literature sent out by real es-
tate firms reaches very few Of the
classes of people we want to come here.
We want farmers, stock raisers, fruit
raisers and poultry men, and when you
send men who can talk to these men on
every subject connected with farming
in general and you can answer these
men on every point, then you can ex-
pect to get results.
Right now there are hundreds Of that
class of tillers of the soil and cattle
men that if they knew what they could
do here they would come like they
would to a newly discovered Eldorado.
Prove to these people the indisputable
facts furnished by the government.
and let them know that they can come
here, secure land cheaper than in
amy other place in the United States;
that this land win answer every re-
quirement and stand any test, and you
viii settle up your thousands of acres
now lying dormant and unused.
Prove to these people that we have
4S0.420 acres of the finest tillable soil
and out Of this 10000 acres in cultiva-
ton. leaving $50. 420 acres laying un-
used and uncultivated. You will never
bring settlers and homeseekers to your
county unless you do like all CONNER
cial firms by sending men Of expert
ence and knowledge in everything per-
tanning to farming In all its various
branches. backed up by the records Of
government. and state truthful facts
BY this means we could prove to the
people that Florida as a state and Es-
Gambia county in particular. is the
place to come and enjoy the finest of
climate and conditions, and that the

But don't interpret that as an out

thing else is quite ancient.
But after all, the idea of checking the little tots isn't 80 absurd. 1t
becomes immensely sensible a one thinks about it. And it has been found
quite practical and popular already.
The Baby Check Stand at the free Nursery Fairgrounds will be one
of the many unusual conveniences found at the Centennial Exposition and
