Mr. Brantley & Son, of Georgia, have recently located in our city and they say they are here to stay. These gentlemen represent the Penn Mu- tual Life Insurance Co., and they desire to show their friends of Lake- land a new up-to-date policy just gotten out by the Penn Mutual. Ev- erybody knows the standing of ‘his old company with its six hundred and fifty millions insurance in force. and sixty-fve years old. " We learn these men have just signed a con- tract with the Alpine Safe and Lock Co., of Cincinnati, 0., to sell and de-: liver in Floridd three bumdred safes between now and the first of Jan- vary. They guarantee to sell you a safe for half the price of other deal- ers. Address these gentlemen Lakeland, Fla., Box 42. Mr. Brantley says he visited Fort Meade. No one wanted to buy a money safe. He sold eight. The first one sold was to Editor R. O. Meeks. He is now sorry his con- tract did not call for 600 instead of half this amount for if you can sell an editor of a paper you can sell any one else. —— OWN AN AUTOMOBILE. We have contracted with the Stu- debaker corporation to sell E. M. F. $0’s and Flander's 20's. We have them here to show you.

If you want a good, reliable car, you will not be disap- pointed if you purchase either of these we have mentioned. S. M. Stephens. 3-28-tf G. C.

When a girl says “Gee whiz,” *It was something fie or “You're up against it,” you need nothing more te convince you that she may be gocd-hearted and well-meaning, but- Nobody wants to be stamped as common. To say to anyone that she is Kkind-hearted, good-natured, will- ing to serve a friend, and that she honestly pays her way, is to say she is a respectable member of society; but to add to this that she is common and ordinary is to indicate a fatai defect, Purity of speech requires the omis- sion of slang and silly superfivous phrases. The latter, while perhaps net profane, are often not refined, and show that one's associations Lave been with iil-bred person To think before you speak is excellent rule, You should ma2ke up your mind once for all to use only grammatical words and phrzses to represent * had- n't ought” or “ain’t” or use « sin- gular verb with a plural noun Most girls have gone through the grammar school, if not further, and they have been taught what is :ight and what is wrong in framin: =en tences in English.

Wiley, the Titre food apostle and fellow wander- er, who is 66 years old and just now the father of his first heir, which tips the scales at nine and a half pounds and which he calls “a bounc- ing baby" (all proud dads call 'em “bouncing babies”)—I notice, 1 say that the Old Doc. is indulging in a heap of mighty big talk about how he is going to rear that boy, says ex- Governor E. W. Hoch. TThe little shaver is to sleep out of doors all the time, he is to be weaned at 15 nonths, and before that time given only gruel and whites of egg in addi- tion to his “natural food" and he is not to eat any fruit till he is 3 years old, his clothes are to be plain and simple and free from frills, and no long dresses will ever be tolerated around that boy; no pins will ever be permitted around to stick him; he is 10 be permitted to kick his little feet and roll and tumble all he wants to, &c. Mighty big talk, this, on the part of the proud old papa, and abcut as valuable as the series of sermons on ““how to rear children” once de- livered in Marion by a brilliant preacher who never had any chil- dren. In due course of time Old Doc will find that Mrs. Wiley has some- thing to say about this business, and all his hifalutin science notions will gc kermash. She will dress it as she Pleases and it will have all the frills she wants on it, which will be a plen- ty. When it gets the stomach ache she will insist that it must be kept out of the drafts of air which caused it and she will at once proceed to tuck it away in the house and close the windows, And long before that boy is 3 years old he will be toddling out in the orchard filling his system with green apples and eat his peck of {dirt and the Old Doe will be as help- {less in it all as a sick Kitten. But he telks mighty big now. Two Good Places: . C. Stevens’ Jewelry Store AND . lakeland, Florida . . 'ALACHUA CONVICT ESCAPES AND STILL AT LARGE.
