I06AN DESCRIBES AUTO TRIP FROM NEW PARIS TO FLORIDA

Friends of G. JL Bogan New Paris, are interested in the following letter describing his trip to St. Petersburg via motor car: To tho Richmond Palladium and Son Telegram, Richmond, Indiana. We left New Paris on the morning of October 24th, in our car for Florida. The first day. 182 miles, to Louisville. Ky., roads were good. From LouisTille to Nashville, Tenn.. 190 miles, some good roads and some very rough. From Nashrille to Hubts-toll-gates between the two points. The Dixie Highway people have bought this road and the gates will be removed the first of this month. Most of this road was very rough. Cross on Ferry Boat From Huntsville to Atlanta, Georgia, 230 miles, we crossed the Tennessee river at Gunnersville on Ferry boat. The first forty miles of this day's travel was very rough, the remainder of it was very good. We -came through Rome Georgia, which is a beautiful city that day. From Atlanta to Valdosta, Georgia. 263 miles; this day's travel the roads were good. From Valdosta to Gainesville. Florida. 140 miles, some very good roads and some rough and sandy. From Gainesville to Tarpon Springs, a distance of 149 miles, some of the rdads good and some deep Band. From. Tarpon Springs to St. Petersburg, a distance of , 39 miles, the roads were good all the way. In covering this distance. 1303 miles, we used 96 gallons of gasoline, and two and one half gallons of machine oil. We broke one spring, which cost me $9.50 and I can buy the same spring here for $4.50. U Beautiful Town. We arrived in St. Petersburg at 8:30 a. m., October 31. .The city is situated on the South end of the Pinellas Peninsula, on the West side of Tampa Bay. about twenty-three miles Southwest of Tampa. I call it a beautiful town, and the population, I am told, Is about 12,000. There are about 100 miles of brick road, including the city's paved streets and the county good roads in the vicinity. There are four banks with handsome buildings, six commodious school buildings, besides an open air school and a seminary for girls; something like half a hundred hotels and boarding houses, and apartment houses in almost every block in the city. The opera house is a fin building in the Spanish style, with capacity for 2.500 people, and as well equipped as any theatre In the South. Thm Sna" as the hie bath house is called Is the finest bathing place in Florida, and Its swimming pool is one of the finest In the country. The city pier has a promenade, besides a drive for automobiles and a trolly, line,- and Is one of the favorite spots for recreation. The city band gives free concerts "here" weekly, and "there"ls dancing at the band pavilion on the beach almost nightly. Phillies Train In 8outh. . The "Phillies" train here this winter, at Coffee Pot Bayou, in the northern part of the city; and their grounds divide favor with the new golf links at the Jungle, in the vicinity of Davista, which is a western suburb of St. Petersburg. - A drawing card for St. Petersburg is the large number of benches along Central avenue, the main street, where every one Is free to rest as long as he desires, even until late at night; and it is an interesting sight to watch the crowds that throng the Avenue. Garages Are Numerous The public garages are numerous,

According to reports on hand from Annapolis, the Navy football team has Improved quite remarkably during the past week or to of secret practice. Ingram, the sturdy halfback, who is this year's material on the team la said to have been doing excellent work and to have displayed considerable class. In Orr, the husky future admiral of the Navy football team, Coach Jones Ingram believes he has the prospects of excellent material. Orr is another of this year's men on the Annapolis eleven, but he has proved himself a valuable Hdition to the team. .

and they are the largest and finest

that I have seen anywhere. Some of the store buildings are three and four stories high, of brick and stone, and carry stocks that would be a credit to a town qf five times the population of St. Petersburg. ' There is always something ' doing in the way of amusement. As I write a lady's band is going down the street; they will appear at the opera house in a big show tonight There are fine offerings in the way of operaB and shows, besides the moving picture shows, and in the spring ,there is a Chautauqua. St. Petersburg is enjoying, a beautiful boom; new buildings are going up in every part of the city, and in the outskirts of town, , and the class of construction is usually very good. Rose Are In Blossom We find yards and grounds looking beautiful, a profusion of roses and poinsettias and hibiscus and other beautiful flowers, and the birds sing all night these moonlight nights. I have already proved that the fishing is good, having caught a lot ol mackerel and other fish from the pier in front of the city; am told that tarpon were captured right off the pier only about a week ago. One day this week I saw a catch of twenty-three red fish, some weighing six pounds. My wife and I caught twenty-eight mackerel this morning. Living expenses in St. Petersburg are reasonable. At this time of year the markets are filled with fine fresh vegetables and fish and everything that is good. Expects Record Crowds St Petersburg is anticipating the largest crowd in its history this winter, and hundreds of rooms have been added to the city's housing accommodations to care for the increased travel There are more people here now. than ever before at this time of year, and houses are being engaged very rapidly. This town's great popularity, of course, is due to its wonderful climate, which Is conceded to be the best to be found. It is even a little better than conditions in the rest of Florida, on account of the peninsular position of the town, it being surrounded on three sides by salt water. Another reason for its popularity is found in the cordial, friendly spirit shown to visitors by the residents, who will go out of their way to Bhow a courtesy to a stranger. It is al60 a town where the man of moderate means my. come and live in modest style and be as highly regarded as if ae were a millionaire.

PALLADIUM WANT ADS PAY A MESSAGE TO THIN WEAK SCRAWNY FOLKS An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 30 Pounds of Solid, Healthy Permanent Flesh. Thin, nervous, undeveloped men and women everywhere are heard tp say, "I can't understand why I do not get fat. I eat plenty of good nourishing food." The reason is just this: You cannot get fat, no matter how much you eat, unless your digestive organs assimilate the fat-making elements of your food instead of passing them out through the body as waste. What is needed is a means of gently urging the assimilative functions of the stomach and intestines to absorb the oils and fats and hand them over to the blood, where they may reach the starved, shrunken, run-down tissues and build them up. The thin person's body is like a dry sponge eager and hungry for the fatty materials of which it is being deprived by the failure of the alimentary canal to take them from the food. A splendid way of working to overcome this sinful wtste of flesli building elements and to stop the leakage of fats is to try Sargol, the famous flesh building agent that has been so widely sold in America in recent years. Take a little Sargol tablet with every meal and see if your cheeks don't quickly fill out and rolls of firm, healthy flesh form over your body, covering each bony angle and projecting point. Clem Thistlethwaite's 5 stores and other good druggists have Sargol or can get it from their wholesaler, and will refund your money if you are not satisfied w'th the gain in weight it produces as stated on the guarantee in each large package. It is inexpensive, easy to take and highly efficient. Adv. ,-l ok

The authorities have discovered a clever though simple method of getting around maximum prices for butter and the general prohibition of selling It .in more than quarter pound lots. It consists of "buttered herring," consisting of one vprv small, thin herrine. encased in about a pound of butter, which has been selling on the Berlin marset ior some 9 marks a pound. Before the authorities discovered the ruse, dealers who had managed to get both fish and butter from Denmark and elsewhere had succeeded in disposing of hundreds of pounds. Many customers bought in 20, 50 and 100 pound lots, gladly paying the extraordinary price or any price for the chance to eret butter aeain. even though most of them threw away the tiny fish and with it lost some little of the butter that clung to its skinny sides. ; Patents . have been granted to a Maryland inventor for a gasoline cart ridge for breaking up farm soil in the same way that dynamite is usedTried Various Kidney - Remedies But Only One Proved Reliable It Is with great pleasure that I write these lines of praise for your wonderful kidney and bladder remedy.
