MAKING GOOD.

The many friends here of Ken
meth E. Bragdon, eldest son of Mr..
and Mrs. E. E. Bragdon of this
place, and one of the first to go out
from the Sullivan high school are
pleased to learn of his advancement
in his chosen work, as told in the
following clipping from the Florida
Grower, a paper devoted to the
fruit growing interests of Florida:
For some time the Horticultural
Department of the Exchange Supply
Company has been searching for a
man qualified to act as assistant to
r. L. Lenfast. who is in charge of
that department. Recently it has
been possible to secure Mr.. X. e.
Bragdon to fill this position. When
it was decided to increase the depart
ment Mr. Bragdon was one of the first
men thought Of He has been in
Florida since early in 1912. Previous
to that date little over five years
We're spent in Porto Rico. OF this
time about four years We're in the ser
vice of the Porto Rican Government MT
Work was done during that period on
property assessment and in irrigation
service. He also spent one year with
the Central Aguirre Sugar Co., later
leaving them to come to Florida. A
little over two years We're then given
to practical grove and packing house
work.
Following this about four ond one
half years We're spent with the State
Pant Board. During this time Mr..
Bragdon was placed on special as
Silrnmant with cd
izations-the Bureau of Entomology.
the Federal Horticultural Board and
the Bureau of Plant Industry. While
IN the latter service the fight against
citrus canSer was on. After a period
in the field he was advanced to head
quarters and there helped in the
training of other field canker inspec-
tors.
DR.. 'Wilmon Newell, plant commits
sioner and director of the expert
ment station, says of Mr. BraEdon:
During the period of over four
years that Mr.. Bragdon was asso-
ciated with the state plant board he
showed himself to be sincerely inter-
ested in the work and energetic in
performing his various duties. He
was ready at all times to spend his
energies to the fullest extent in or
der 'eo~accomplish whatever work was
at hand On entering the county
agent work the same sincerity of pur-
pose and active interest in agricul
tural work, especially citrus was
characteristic of his labors. We are
sorry TO lose Mr.. Bragdon from the
Extension Service, for he is most
capable and practical man. and has at
an times given thoroughly salts
factory service in whatever line he
was engaged"

FACE INFLAMED
WITH ECZEMA
Treatment Prescribed By Two
Skin Specialists Had No
Effect on The Disease
"Fruit-a-tives" Cleared The Skin

ELBA, NEW YORK. s
1T suffered with Eczema in my face
for five years. Tried everaldoctors,
two of whom we're specialists on Skin
Diseases, and got no help whatever.
Last April, l read an advertise
ment about DR.. Z. N. Olzendam of
Dover, NH, being completely re-
lieved of a stubborn case Of Eczema
similar to mine by the use of Fruit
a-tives" and SCOTIA Saliva.
On May lst, began using 'sFruit-
a-tives" and after two weeks saw
improvement. June LIST began
using "Sootha Saliva" and by the first
of August, l was completely relieved.
And at the present time, cannot
see any signs of the disease coming
back. / can now work on the hottest
days in summer and get my blood
heated up and the Eczema does not
bother me.'' RAY W. SPEED.
In all the history Of medicine, there
has never been another treatment
for Eczema, Rashes and other Skin
Disease to compare with "Fruit,a-
tives" and "Sootha-Salva". Here
you have the ideal combination, to
purify the blood, insure sound diges-
ton, correct constipation, and soothe
and heal the infamed, itching skin.
"Fruit-a-tives" is sold by all dea-
lers at SOC box, 6 for $3.50, trial
size 25c., or from FRUIT-A-TIVES
Limited, OGDENSBURG, NY.

THERE'S REST IN THE SHADE OF

No more of the strife and the wound
No more of it's pain and defeat;
No more of the battle-cry sounding
But rest that is tranquil and sweet.
Chorus:
o, comrades tits glory immortal
That crowns us with blessings like
these.
For boys, we have crossed the dark
river
And we rest in the shade of the trees,
o, we rest in the shade of the trees.
We're marching no more on the noun

Or low in the valleys of strife;
But rest near the bright flowing

And drink of a glorious life.
We gather the lilies immortal,
And carry the palm of His love;
We join the bright guards at the

Enrolled in His armies above

One bright cent from Johnny's pocket,
Where nickel and dime
And three other duller pennies
Were reposing for the time
II should like to go to Findiay,
Said the nickel, looking glum,
"But | know too well I'm booked for
Chocolates and chewing gum

Cried the dime. but then, you see
Johnny wants a brand new pistol;
That's what he will buy with me.

INJURED,
Johnny would have let us go:
But for marbles. cakes and tatfy

Wrapped in generous self-conteht'
Felt himself "a Christian truly,
Since he'd freely given cent.
