NOV EMBER 6, 1911, How the Doctor Got His Fee “No daughter of mine shall ever 4| marry o son of old Wildon's,” thun. | “3US€8—a more exacting standard, the dered Francis Halbert'y irate father. “A son isn’t to blame for his fath- in bereditary traits.” ‘In this case I belleve that Clarence bas or will inherit all his father's ways. He has never ever buried a patient, much less cured one.” “How can he when he hasn't the chance? They either send for old Dr. Corbin or take such good care of themselves that a doctor is & minus quantity in this town.” “Well, he has a quantity of nerve to ask for my daughter and that ‘No’ is final” “But, father, didn't you marry moth- or in opposition to her family wishes?” “Hush, child! Times were differ- ent in those days,” said Mr. Halbert. That evening Mrs. Halbert com- plained to her husband: “Why are you so obstinate in the case; never have you refused your daughter the smallest trifie, and now that this love has come into her life, you talk as if she were guilty of some great offense. Don't you notice how thin and languld she {s looking. She is grieving herself to death.” “Over that Wilson fellow? Imposs!- ble. Send her to the seashore and she’ll return rosy and gay. If she didn't see him every day she'd never think of that idiotic physiclan. He couldn’t prescribe for my pet canary.” “He wouldn’t,” answered Mrs. Hal bert. Francis told me that after you spoke to him in that abrupt manner, he sald he would never come near the house again until you sent for him.” Francis joined some friends at the seashore and from the tone of her let- ters, her father felt more than justi- fled in having urged her to leave home. On the fourth day the following tele- gram was recelved at the Halbert | home: “Am quarantined here. Bad case of diphtherfa in hotel. Don't worry. Feel fine.” Mr. and Mrs. Halbert tried not to be anxious, but they could hardly wait the hour until the dally message ar- rived. “Still quarantined,” Mrs. Halbert read on the sixth day. Hotel physi- clan takes every precaution. Not lonely.” “Put yourself under doctor's care.| Do exactly as he says,” Mr. Halbert wired his daughter. It seemed from the rest of the tele- grams that Francis was enjoying her enforced isolation and there evidently was no danger of contagion as the doctor watched her closely, was often her partner at bridge and accompa- nied her on long walks. “He's most likely some old fatherly practitioner who took pity on her,” commented her father. “If I had searched the world over, could I bave devised any better scheme for keep- ing Francis away from Wilson. Es- pecially as she & enjoying herself In a first-clase hotel.” MThank the doctor for his kind- ness,” he wrote after he recelved word that Francis would leave on the following day. “Invite him to visit us on your return, when I will thank him in person and pay for his services whatever amount he states.” “Dear Father,” was the answer & few hours later. “Dr. Wilson accom- panies me home on your invitation to ask as payment for his services your consent to our marriage.” “Goodness' Graclous!” Ejaculated the surprised father. “My patience is exhausted, but if he takes such good care of his patients that he is phys!- clan in a big hotel, I suppose I might | as well give in, otherwise Francls will | most likely follow her parents’ exam- ple and elope. There must be some- thing in hereditary traits.” PAGE SEVEN jTHEIR SINGING HARD LABOR IPeopla of Star Island, Says Cella PSSR akeland Highlands Among people—ot—lverage musical ability there is less singing than there Will Prove Profitable.

In a recently published letter, Celia Thaxter tells how some of the Star Island foiks, during her long residence at the Isles of Shoals, used to sing.. “Thelr singing,” she declared, “was truly astonishing, indeed, | might say, excruciating.

The climate is pure and invigorating and there are no mosquitoes nor malaria at Lakeland Highlands. The improvements now under construction, consist of a mag- nificent Country Club House, Spanish Mission style of archi- tecture, schoo! and chapel, boat houses, stables and garage. A golf course is mow being | planned in addition to many oth- er out door and indoor amuse- ments. The approximate cost to be $25,000. With the above improvements and develcpments it is obvious that property values in this sec- tion will increase very rapidly during the next few years, An investment made now, at the present jow pries and easy terms, should yield very hand- some commercial returns, It would not be surprising to see this property double in value during the next two years. The social and health advan. tages at Lakeland Highlands will be worth the amount of your in- vestment.

ZI0HIR Learn to Stand Alone or You Never Will Become Strong or Original, Power s the goal of every worthy ambition, and only weakness comes from imitation or dependence on oth- ers, says Orison Swett Marden In Suc- cess Magazine. Power is sell-devel oped, self.generated. We cannot In- crease the strength of our muscles by sitting In a museum and letting an- other exercise for us. Nothing else so destroys the power to stand alone as the habit of leaning upon others. If you lean, you will never be strong or original. Stand alone or bury your ambition to be somebody In the world. The man who tries to give his chil dren a start In the world so that they will not bave g0 hard a time as he had, is unknowingly bringing disaster upon them. What he calls giving them a start will probably give them a set- back In the world. Young people need all the mctive power they can get. They are naturally leaners, Imitators, coplers, and it 1s easy for them to de Bartow, Fla. ROGERS & BLANTON La 3 Bryant Block, 'Phone 319 Lakeland, Fla. TUCKER & TUCKER ! Lawyers Raymondo Bidg.
