THEY LIKE IT QUIET; LAKELAND'S NOT THE PLACE. Mr. D. C. McCormick and wife, the latter being formerly Miss Mary Butler, accompanied by their little son Lester and Miss Estelle Butler, of Fort Meade, are spending a few days in Lakeland with their mother. Mr. McCormick made the trip in his machine—a distance of 115 miles in one day, arriving in Lakeland at 7 p. m. Friday none the worse for the long trip. Mr. Mc says Lakeland is all 0. K., but he prefers the beautiful banks of the Caloosahatchee, where all is quiet and serene; where the herds of cattle roam at large and the wild flowers bloom in profusion with nothing to break the monotony but the shrill blast of a passing boat. Yes, Dan, all's quiet and serene until a few of those convicts escape, and then listen! Come to Lakeland again, Dan, we are always glad to see you. A FRIEND. TRAIN ARRIVED THREE YEARS LATE. A train which left Bolivar in South America for a neighboring town three years ago has just ar- rived. The distance covered was 120 kilometers, and the reason for the delay was a storm which derailed the train, killed most of the passen- gers and ripped up such a goodly por- tion of the railroad line that the company owning it was forced into bankruptey. About six months ago an American engineer undertook the reconstruction of the road and brought the long delayed train to the point for which it originally started.—Harper's Weekly. THE REASON. James Whitcomb Riley used to tour the country with Bill Nye in lecture courses. One night while the two were behind the scenes in the theater of some eastern town Riley got tired of waiting while Nye tried to make himself beautiful, and tip- toeing to the drop curtain peered out into the auditorium. He came back to Nye's dreesing room in consterna- tion. “Great Scott!"” he whispered, “this is awful! There ain’t a pesky handful of people out there, Bill!" “I don’'t know why there isn't Jim,” replied Nye dreamily, continuing to “wrassle”” with his tie, “we've never been here before.” Aerate Your Bolled Water. Drinking water that has been bolled s usually so flat and tasteless that people are apt to dislike it exceeding- 1y, and even though the heaith au- thorities order its use, many people will run the risk of contracting ty- phoid’ fever rather than take this pre- caution. If boiled water is thoroughiy cooled and shaken up well in a bottle half filled, it will become aerated and have the sparkle and taste of ireshly drawn well water.—Housckeeper, | | | “Pather of Antiseptic Surge Sir Joseph Lister’s remarkable dis- | coveries in surgery wen worldwide | In the profession he “father | ORDINANCE NUMBER 139.
