We see where this Sunday closing business on the part of the postoffice i ol 1o cost us a nickle every Sunday morning, for what would Sunday be without the Tampa Tri- bune? You come high, Trib, but we . must have you! Over in St. Petersburg they are trying to decide what constitutes swearing, as al] those using ugly, unnecessary words on the streets of that city are to be arrested. lLet a man hit his finger with a hammer, and you'll find out what kind of words to look out for, dear Police. The St. Cloud Council is a bit more progressive in its ideas than any oth- er such body of law makers who have come within our notice. They have passed an ordinance prohibit- ing the running at large of cattle, and have made the penalty for such indiscretion a jail sentence for Bos- sy, her owner and a nice, juicy fine thrown in. Those councilmen had better think twice over the result of the civil war—there's too many old Yanks over there to make it com- fortable if they decide to go on the war path. We appreciate the bouquets that the newspaper fraternity have been throwing our way —in fact, we have yet to find a member of the feminine persuasion who don’t iike just such tuffy though they Kknow it may not all be =0. Our experience in issuing the paper without assist- atce, reminds us of what we were told by a friend the first day the Telegram was issued last November: “Well, you got out one daily paper, but what will you put in it tomor- row.” We have managed, however, to find something—in fact, in Lake- land there is always something do- ing, hardly a day passing that some new industry or enterprise is nog started. —— e oven Lakeland has an ordinance for- bidding the running at large of dogs during the summer months unless they are muzzled. This is a good preventive for hydrophobia—at least i’ the dogs go mad they injure no one but themselves, while if allowed to run loose the danger of someone being bitten is ever present. Only a few days ago a filne dog was killed by a man who knew that if he didn'c end its Jife it might be the death of some child, whereas, if it has been properly muzzled it could have béen left to die or gzet well, according to W hat nature willed. We hope this erdinance wil] be strictly enforced, and then all danger of some one be- ing bitten will be at an end.

The clothing man was of the opin= jon that a grocery businéss was the best. lle said people had to eat no matter what the condition of busi- ness and they could do without clothes, especially in a warm climate like this. He declared he wished he could sell groceries so that he would get rich. The groceryman, on the other kand, said that his business was one in which there were too many chances for leaks and the profit was ¢ small that there was little money in groceries. He thought the real estate business was the best but the real estate man declared there was g0 little doing in his line that it wits hard to make both ends eet, with the price of gasoline and auto- mohile tires =0 high.- St. Petersburg Ladependent, MISS KELLER ASTOUNDS THE SCIENTISTS. What many scientists present pro- nounced a wondertul demonstration was given by Miss lelen Keller one afternoon last week when she sang the scale and spoke in three lan- guages at the Otological Congress at Harvard Medical School in Boston. It had been known for a long time that Miss Keller was winning back the use of her tongue and vocal cords, but thic was the first public demonstration «f her near-miracu- lous powers. Her audience, con.rosed largely of famous doctors, sat in wonder as she spoke in perfectly intelligible tones. Miss Keller begged the physicians to help in the work of enailing the deal mute child to speak and to un- derstand what the people say. “When you have failed to save the organs of a child then you must think of the child locked behind the closed organs of sense and the im- patient spirit,” said she. But Miss Keller's speech in Eng- lish was not the only remarkable event of the afternoon, for she spoke both French and German with equal ease, and read these languages from the lips of another. The most remarkable thing, how- ever, was the rudimentary attempts at singing, or tore culture, which Miss Keller demonstrated. She is taking lessons at the New England Conservatory of Music. Miss Keller sang the scale, taking an fitths or thirds, with perfect and acceuracy Prof. White of the conservatory said that it was difficult for her tH co-ordinate the rhythmic beating of time and the singing of the scale to the same time onr with one hand on the other, but on this oceasion she did it perfectly, and the applause fairly shook the ampitheater. Dr. Henry O. Reik, of Baltimore, ivtroduced severa] of his students. boys and girls, who were quite as much deaf mutes as Miss Keller, and who could understand lip reading perfectly. They spoke so that the; could be well understood by the au- dience. octave, oase as she beat it Kissimmee, one of Florida's most progressive towns, has just voted for $60,000 worth of municipal bonds, which will be used in various im- provements.
