still think Of Florida, and of returning
to our beautiful country. Jackson

a large hrst-class hotel. 1t is the prin-
cipal business point in the state. Its
location is beautiful and healthy, and
its inhabitants enterpiising and thor.
oughly progressive. The climate Of
Florida is the great attraction for nor.

any in the world besides il is at home
under our own American government,
and always must have attractions fol
home comfort seekers, and for iayalids
who desire genial weather during the
winter months The attractions o.
Florida are just beginning to be appre
ciated by the people OF the United
States. Visitors will multiply as the
facts become known and hotels arc
built for their accommodation.
