The - Florida Supreme Court has just landed down a decision in- the case of Gadsden B. Bryan, plaintiff in error, vs. the City of West Palm Ueach. Bryan sued under Sec. 94 . of the charter of the City of Palm v Beach, wherein it is provided that the ; rity shall not be responsible for per , sonal injuries due to defective con-- ditions of the streets of that city of for the misfeasance or non-feasance of its civic officers. It seems that a parking area was marked off for automobiles, and that instead of painting the pavement with demark m; line3, the authorities stretched a wire along the streets, to indicate the official parking place. Against thi3 wire the pedestrian, Bryan, tripped, and claimed personal injuries were sustained. The Supreme Court has reversed the decision of the court be . low and Bryan now has the right to r" reopen the case in the Circuit Court ' of Palm Beach county.

J, Appleyard is suffering today from a needle which he accidentally ran into the ball of his foot a few nights ago when he was walking around in his bedroom after he had rempveii his shoes and extinguished his light. .Surgeons have probed several times for the needle but have not yet found it. Mr. Appleyard knows it is still there because he can feej it whenever he puts his weight on that foot. He says he supposes the needle will work its way out in time.

London, Jan. 16 Flight-Lieutenant Tat O'Brien, the former Santa Fe railway man who effected a remark able escape from Germany after be ing shot down in an aerial battle as a member of the Royal Corps and who walked across a part of Ger many, all of Luxemburg, and Bel gium before digging under the "wire of death" and reaching Amsterdam, has just told his story to the King at Buckingham Palace. And O'Brien and the King have formed compli mentary impressions of each other. "I have .met some of the heads of departments on the Western division of the Santa Fe, some of the big business men in Chicago, and a few of the men doing1 the fighting in im portant positions in this war, and I want to say that the King is one of the best," said O'Brien, who is a na tive of Momence, 111., and a resident of San Francisco. "I don't think he knows what side means. We shook hands heartily three times on my arrival, when I thought I might be taking too much of Rls time and started to go, and finally when we said good -by. "I received a telegram to call at 10:0 o'clock and. arriving two min utes before, found the King on rail road time. I was not kept waiting a minute, but was taken directly t- him by one of his secretaries who withdrew on presenting me. We then chatted for 40 minutes, the King showing great interest in my experiences and questioning1 me min utely as to my route from the time I jumped out of the train window until I concealed myself nearby and studied the electrically-charged bar rier between Belgium and Holland for about a week of nights before succeeding in a plan of escape. "The King first offered me a chair, but when I declined politely stood with me" throughout our conversation He certainly had more than an amii teur's knowledge of electricity, as 1 gathered by the ltvely interest he dis played at the several ways I had in mind as to how best to put the live wires out of business. I thought first of grounding the current in the several wires with a horizontal metal bar. then made a ladder of sappings so green that the wood proved a con ductor and decided on another plan successfully. "He was keenly interested in my jump through the window of the train and the guard's effort to hold me in. I think he laughed most heartily at my passage with the guard previously .when I complained of our having to" ride in fourth-class com partments. The guard responded that we rightfully should be riding in hog-tnicks. I answered That such would be preferable to riding" with Germans, and then my English speaking guard exploded in gutterals. probably not knowing profanity in ai foreign tongue. "I couldn'jt realize the King was a King- He seemed just like other men, but more interested in my story. He expressed great sympathy for m mother owing to her long belief that I had been killed, it indeed having Gonzalez High School Named to Secure Federal and State Aid For Agriculture Tallahassee Bureau Pensacola Journal.

Calomel is mercury or quicksilver which causes necrosis of the bones. Calomel, when it comes into contact with sour bile, crashes into it, break ing it up. 'i his is when you feel that awful nausea and cramping. If you are sluggish and "all knocked out." if your liver is torpid and bowels constipated or you have headache, dizziness, coated tongue, if breath is bad or stomach sour just take a spoonful of harmless Dodson's Liver Tone. Here's my guarantee Go to any drug store and get a bottle of Dod son's Liver Tone for a few cents. Take a spoonful tonight, and if t doesn't straighten you right up and make you feel fine and vigorous by morning, I want you to go back t-j the store and get your money. Dod son's Liver Tone is destroying thf sale of calomel because it is real liver medicine; entirely vegetable, therefore it can not salivate or make j-ou sick. I guarantee that one spoonful of Dodson's Liver Tone will put your sluggish liver to to work and clean your bowels of that sour bile and constipated waste which is clogging your system and making you feel miserable. I guarantee that a bot tle of Dodson's Liver Tone will keep your entire family feeling fine for months. Give it to your" children. It is harmless; doesn't gripe and they like its pleasant taste Adv.
