SECURE A HOME IN The LAND Of ELDWHs
DINSMOREl

One of the growing towns of the
South, is situated on both sides of
Savanr ah, Florida & Western
Railroad, just twelve miles from
Jacksonville, Fla. 1t is high, dry
and level, and a successful horti.
cultural and truck-groWing section
of the State. Dinsmore can be
easily reached from Jacksonville by
railroad, by water route, or by an
hour and half drive over an excel
lent plank and shell road. q -
Dinsmore is not one Of the isola-
ted spots that is only laid out on
paper, but a thriving prosperous
town that recommends itself to
capitalist and laborer, to fathers
and wives who are vigilant over
their own interests and the welfare
of their children, to those who are
seeking homes and those who have
capital to invest for speculation.
Thesland can be obtained at re-
markably low figures and on terms
suitable to the condition of every
purchaser. At the present slow
figures poor man can make regu-
lar payments on valuable home
with less than the aggregate of
unnecessary expense or money act
ually thrown away. II is an in
vestment that one cannot regret
and through which you will realize
many times the amount invested.
The prices are for Front Business
Lots one acre, $65, $50, $35. Sec
ond choice, $25 $18. Third choice
SIS. Fourth choice $40. Fifth
choice, $5. It must be remember.
| ed that these are acre lots.
We also have vegetable and
truck farms laid out adjacent to
Dinsmore, containing from five to
sixteen acres each, which We offer
for the benefit of those who wish to
farm at SIS acre.
Our terms are one fourth cash
and balance in one, two and three
years.
The chain of title will be short
and strong. 1t is from the State of
Florida to the Railroad and from
the Railroad to you.
sTruck farming around Dlnsmore
would be at the door of two of the
greatest markets in the South. Let
| every poor man if with but one
dollar, commence to buy lot in
Dinsmore. The fare from Jackson.
Vile and return is only twenty-five
cents. Think of it. There are
eight passenger trains PEE day and
the round trip will only cost twen-
ty-fve cents. Trout creek, large
streams passes right through the
vicinity, thus affording pure fresh
water for stock, perfect drainage
and abundance of fish.
TAKE WARNING NOW, and
do not let this grand opportunity
slip you. 1t is the very best chance
you will have to secure good
piece of valuable property and such
startling prices.
The merchants in Dinsmore are
enjoying a good trade and the
town is rapidly growing. Saw
mills are convenient for securing
timber to build, and laborers who
desire work can get from a dollar
and a half to two dollars per day

A Wrecked Life,

A life wrecked under the saddest
circumstances ended in suicide the
other day in the town of Carondalte,
Ill. Monroe Gray was a school teach
er with pretty wife and three bright
little children. They lived in innocent
happiness until William Dietsch, all
amorous millionaire, came to the town
and fell in love with the school master s
magnetism and the young wife was
weak. Time went on and the school
master learned that the matters at
home were not as they used to be. One
day he came upon his wife and her
paramour in his own room. The
schoolmaster was firm and with a
cooked revolver in his hand, gave each
of them one minute to pray. The
millionaire offered all he possessed for
life but when the minute was up. fell
dead with bullet in his heart: a
moment later the woman also met the
penelty. The schoolmaster was tried.
convicted and sentenced to one year in
the penitentiary, where he served two
months and was pardoned. On We'd
nesday he wrote to his children that
life was too heavy for him to bear, and
before they read the letter he had
followed his wife and her paramour.
The story is too painful for words.
And there are too many like it

that more of the seekers for good

these opportunities. We have a few
permanent residents who patiently
await these opportunities and have
realized handsome profits in the twelve
years Of my observation. I have en-
deavored from time to time to induce
some of my personal friends in the east
to take advantage of them but generally
they fall into the popular error of
waiting until there is a general move

quent sales carries them across the
line from the handsome margins offered

The certainty of profit in the pur-
chase of lands here at present prices,
and of lots three and four blocks from
the center of business of this CITY at
from $50 to 5000 each, equals if it
does not surpass the best opportunities
ever offered in this state, at points
where marvellous profits have been
obtained, and in my opinion, after a
candid and careful survey of the
situation, these opportunities will be
looked upon in the near future as
bOnanzas.
The influence OF the 1878 failure

business ability that now is the time
to avail themselves of profitable invest

State Convention---Y. N. G. A.

The eighth annual state convention
of the Young Mems Christian Associa-
tion of Kansas will be held in the city
of Topeka, October 1920. The conven-
ton of last year was attended by over
SIX hundred delegates, making it the
largest state gathering ever held in the
west. Arrangements are now being
made for the caring for 500 delegates
and it is confidently expected that the
coming great meeting will be the
largest state convention ever held in
the world. The railroad companies
have again granted reduced rates and
the citizens of Topeka offer entertain
ment for all delegates and correspond
ing members. There will be room for
pastors, fathers and mothers, railroad
men, college men, business men, pro-
fessional men, boys and young men,
and it is believed that the meeting will
be one Of unusual interest and profit.
A large orchestra and male chorus
under charge of Prot. D. B. Towner,
one of the best leaders in the country.
will be helpful feature of the meet
ing. In addition to the good workers
throughout the state. help is expected
from the following: Rev. A. T. Pier
son D. D., Philadelphia. Jno. Y. Far
well of Chicago; Evangeissts E. W. Bliss
and Geo. c. NeedAaa; Dr. 81. Grattan
Guinness of LoRton, and R. E. Speer

Committee still believes in Kansas. in
her young men, her business men. and
her associations, and with renewed
faith in the great captain extensive
plans are being laid for the year 1880.
For the carrying Ga es the regular
work with Increased earnestness. for
the work among the Indian tribes to
the south Of US, for the young men in
unOrganized towns and country places.
and for the railroad and college work.
The financial meeting of the convep.
tion will be held Saturday mosa.lng,
October 10Th.
We are glad to Ao3e that with the
increased prozpeTity in worldly matters
our state does not forget nor take up
with Indifference the work that per-
tains to the best interests of her young
men and we believe that Kansas will
still retain her position as the leader
in aggressive work undertaken hS the
Lords people for the helping 0f young
men.

How MANY republican papers in

How MANY republican papers in
tue state were prohibition newspapers
before the republican state convention
endorsed and saddled prohibition upon
the people? Not one in fifty. And
how many editors who prate about

sellers to violate the law by purchasing
the forbidden Kansas fruit? Honest

otherwise, is worse than downright
scoundrel.- Wichita Journal.
