He didn't like
 white bread-or ready-rubbed tobacco
And probably he preferred
 horsecars to the trolley

He admitted frankly that his tastes were peculiar. He didn't know why. It was just matter of fact that while he was an fnveterate pipe smoker, he never smoked Edgeworth.
 "But don't let that worry you. I don't like white bread. And there are many other things that nearly every body know ikes-and don't"
 We have always recognized that no one tobacco would just hit the taste of every pipesmoker. We have always known, too, that we couldn't make GU the pipe tobacco in the world even if it were possible to make tobacco that everybody liked.
 So we have been content to jog along, seeking and finding men who do like Edgeworth, who find it's indi- vidual fragrance exactly suited to their taste.
 Those are the men we want to smoke Edgeworth. If we can give them the full joy of smoking and keep our fac tories running somewhere near capac- ity, it is about all we expect-and it is enough.
 One thing we do want to be sure of. It is this: That every pipe-smoker try Edgeworth at least once and judge for himself whether or not it is the

The greatest need in Florida today is that we

is less than that of any other state in the Union.
While these figures are somewhat misleading it
remains true that the low assessment of valua-
ton has made the Northern capitalist somewhat
afraid of our securities. The consequence of this
has been that there has been very little Northern

means the bringing to Florida of hundreds of the
most prominent men of the country Interested in
the automobile industry and in coed roads. Pro-
vidiDg steady progress IS maintained by the State
road department and by individual counties in the
world of highway construction, it ought to be pos
sible for Florida to make a good showing. In
another twelve months the northern Translate

City to Jacksonville. There will be several good
entrances 10 Florida from Georgia and Alabama,
notably the northern end of Road No. from
Valdosa to Lake City, the road from Waycross
to the St. Mary river where it connects with State

FROM OUR READERS
To The Evening Telegram:

ToThe Evening Telegram:
The Master, when here on earth,
knowing the. deleterious effect Of
worry on our physical organism, adj
monished us not to worry. He knew
that worry kills quicker than work.
For the great love He has for us,
He said: BE not anxious for your
life, what we shall eat, or what ye
shall drink; nor yet for your body,
what We shall put on"
The gentler sex, after a lapse of
almost two thousand years, has solved
the problem of what we shall put
on That leaves half of the problem
yet unsolved-"what We shall eat and
what We shall drink"
This admonition that Christ handed
to us, Intentionally for our good, may
be susceptible of two constructions
not to worry about WHERE our grub
is coming from, or else not to be too
particular about making up a menu
out of what grub we have.
1t must have been the latter that
he had reference to, judging from
the context, because he assures us
that our Heavenly Father will feed
us. He feeds the birds, and He con-
siders us of more value than many
sparrows. So he must have meant,
that after God has provided the food
for us, that we should not be too
''fnicky" about whether we shall eat
this or that.
In other days and in other places
your humble scribe oftentimes was
forced to worry about the quantity of
the grub, but since coming to Florida
he has now to worry over the KIND.
He has trouble now to pick out
WHAT he should eat.
Hygienists say don't use salt-that
will produce arterio sclerosis.
Don't use meat-that tends to rheu-
matism.
Don't use miik-unless you're a
babylon nature never made it for
grown-ups.
Don't use white bread-it is def
cient in vitamines.
Don't use sugar-that will produce
fatty degeneration of the heart
Now, I'm in a helluva fix to know
! WHAT TO eat.
Here l am, like the NEUROLOGICAL
Tantalus, surrounded by all the good
things that God has so prodigally
provided for me, and yet l dare not
touch one of them. And in my des-
peration l cry out like Paul of old,
20, wretched man that 1 am, who
shall deliver me out Of the body of
this death. LYNN c. DOYLE.

Grantsville. Nd, July 4, 1922.
Our Dear Friends of the Telegram and
Of Lakeland in General:
So far we came through Florida,
Georgia, South Carolina, North Caro-
lima, Virginia, Washington, d. c., and
are now nearly through Maryland.
Some detours in Florida and Georgia
gave US machine trouble, but not Sc
rious. We have seen many more of
Florida's beauty spots and farming
lands than known by us heretofore.
Also by auto route we have seen
miles of fine farm lands in Georgia.
Fine peach orchards abound. A much
more favorable impression of the Car
linas was formed than heretofore OBJ
| tanned, most especially Of North Caro-
lima with her abounding fields of ma
| tive crops and the thousands of acres
of peach orchards. All travellers
must observe the beauty spots that
are being so readily improved by the
hand Of man.
The Dominion state has it's beau
ties and great historical spots of the
past and none can pass through Vir-
| ginia without meditation on her past
history, and as we were passing from
Richmond to Washington we could
not help but think of the once-hated
cries of ION to Richmond and ION
to Washington" and then, thanks to
God, that the same are said today
with great heart of love for each,
and both as united one in love for
our Stars and Stripes that are flying
at the front of our car here in these
Cumberland mountains over 2,0NO feet
| above sea-level.
The day at our nations capitol can
never be erased from mind. To men
ton all we cannot ask the paper to
give space, but to say the trip by ele-
vator to the top of Washington mon
ument and take that panoramic view
OF all Washington, d. c., and far be-
You'd is beyond my description. The
visit to the Pan-American, Lincoln's
Memorial, the White House and Capt.
tol building, then that Red room and
Blue room of the White House, that
room of rooms where our greatest
men meet to deliberate and mediate
on the great questions of today and
may our God ever hallow this holy
place for humanity's sake.
Leaving Washington, we were soon
in Maryland and our "Lizzy' has
brought us within three miles of
Uniontown, Pennsylvania. AS we
have come UP and down and around
and around these most beautiful land
scape spots of Natures beauty, we are
thinking that only real artist could
appreciate fully the artistic beauty in
all this.
We expect to remain here for sew
eral days in these rugged mountains
with this healthful, bracing air We
would perhaps remain here only that
we must go on to Ohio and Michigan.
According to our routing, we are
232 miles from Columbus, Ohio. Elk,
pect as we pass GAINESVILLE, Ohio, to
detoir to Newark and In Licking coun-
ty to visit some friends and then to
Columbus, Ohio, so we will be looking
for a bundle of the kilograms waiting
for us at that city. All real well.
With our best to all, \

Beauty Receives 300 Proposals
 For Marriage As She Lies In
 Prison Awaiting Trial For Murder

Six hundred of the letters touch my heart,'' said Peggy. 'I know just how the poor things feel.'
 Peggy, when she is given a pre- liminary hearing in about two weeks, the date being dependent upon her physical condition, will admit she de- liberately killed Anderson. She will not plead self-defense or insanity. She intends to testify she shot her heart breaking love for two reasons:
 1-To save other girls from him.
 2-Because he deceived her.
 She explained that Anderson prom ised to marry her if she would come to Kansas City, but broke his prom ise. Just before the tragedy, she said, Anderson showed her a list of 50 women's names-and she was number 50. She said he boasted he would get "5O more." He had taken her life, ''as if it had been a twig and broken it," and she resolved he never would do it to another girl.
 The prosecuting attorney. Cameron Orr, recognizing the difficulty of con- victing a woman as pretty as Peggy on a first degree murder charge. had decided, he indicated today, not to demand the death penalty. The charge will be second degree murder.

 Midway was just outcropping sand in the beginning. The largest of the dunes on the 1-2 square miles that tops the sea is fifty-five feet high. It soms with verdure everywhere. Dune grass was brought from Califor- mia and plant and fruit seeds from Hawaii. Midway is a paradise, a prophets heaven sans houris. Yap may be important enough to engage the serious attention of the Washing ton and Versailles conferences, but Midway-the ca ble station half way to America from the Far East, half the station through which the pulse of the whole West and East flows quite transcends little Yap, and any country oovetous enough of this bit of sand as to question Americas sov- ereignty over it would find itself faced with war.
