William j. Florence, the genial, whole
souled, generous man and excellent actor,
died in January, 1S92-less than two years
ago-and he seems to have been we'll nigh
forgotten already, for his grave in Green
wood cemetery, Brooklyn, is sadly neglect
ed. This would not be surprising if he had
left no fortune behind him, but he did, and
his widow, now married to a young English
playwright-Howard Coveney by name-is
said to be in England enjoying the wealth
left her by her first husband.
At the time of Florence's death his will
was contested by his relatives, who alleged
that there had been a codicil which Mrs.
Florence had destroyed. The claim was
not sustained, and the instrument by which
practically everything was bequeathed to
his widow was admitted to probate. And
still his grave has been neglected. In his
case at least the words of the old cynic
seem to have been correct, The weeds of
the vegetable kingdom grow not so rapidly
as the weeds of forgetfulness, for the I'M
mindful heart is the most prolific soil
known"
Who would have believed that such a
thing would ever have come to pass? Ger
tainly Florence when alive would have
laughed the bare suggestion to scorn. OF a
grateful nature himself, he had an abiding
faith that his qualities as a man, as well as
his ability as an actor, would always be ten
derby cherished by his family and the gen
eral public. And in one respect at least he
was not mistaken, for the people will never
forget him. OCTAvUs COHEN.

ESPECIALLY THOSE COMING SOUTH FOR
THEIR HEALTH.
The season is fast approaching when
our northern invalids will be seeking our
warm. sunny cline, and we, believe the
following hints from one of our native
physicians will be of much help to each
and every one. He says:
Thousands, every year, seek southern
localities in winter, for rest and recrea-
tion-other thousands for health. 1t
may be interesting and beneficial to them
to have few plain rules 80 they may be
in position to derive the greatest bene-
fit from a soiourn in warm climate.
Wherever he may go, the invalid sick
with chronic malady, should remember
that although he may have received the
best possible counsel, the ultimate cure
rests with himself. He must apply that
advice under many varying circumstan-
ces, must meyer lose sight of his individ-
uality nor of the fact that many acts
may be done by well people within con-
sequence which for him would be disas-
trOus.

Bribing a Child.

1t is never wise to bride a child to per-
form plain duty, writes Elizabeth Rob-
inson Scovil in an article on "The Re-
wardiDg of Children" in the October
Ladies' Home Journal. There are manx
motives to be appealed to and we should
be cautious how we substitute a lower
for higher one. When bedtime comes
it is often struggle for. the small people
to go off pleasantly and promptly.
When we elders have to do things not at
all more disagreeable to us, we INDUCED
in some murmurs-audible or otherwise
and good deal OF self-pity. 1t is not
to be expected that our juniors will take
up their burdens with more cheerfulntss
than we do ourselves. Yet as soon as
they are old enough to understand any
thing they may be greatly helped, or hlD-
dered, in doing it. cit is time for Charlie
to go to bed now" ought to beenoueh TO
persuade him to do so without difficulty.
But just as we ourselves sometimes fell
to respond to the call of duty SO -,
will be moments when Charlie feels that
his desire to sit up longer entirely over
powers his wish to obey, and he refuses.
What is to be done in this case? His
mother can probably induce him to go
to bed by means of piece OF candy, or
a promised pleasure, but the mex time the
question arises he will be less able to do
right unaided than he was at first. His
mind will naturally revert to the bride
and be will want another. A quiet talk,
gentle argument and persuasion, i'm
pressing upon him that every one has to
do diHagreeable things sometimes be-
cause they are right, will usually prove
effectual; if not it becomes a matter of
obedience that must be enforced even at
the cost Of pain. II we can enlist the will

To Give Away.

81 wish had something to give away"
said dear little woman with a very
large heart and a very contracted purse
to me.
''Try flowers" said /; "a little can of
them, and you can be as generous asyou
please" Perhaps one of your neighbors
has had to put on her pincushion, "Wel-
come, little stranger" Never mind ifyou
do not know her well; you may be as
sured she will appreciate even one flower.

the more you pick the more they come.

OF saying to the strange, rude boy: "Get

den cooling in this way is almost injur-
ious as to pass from sixty degrees F., to
twenty degrees below zero. So also is it
at nightfall. The air as | have said, is
moist, each cubic foot of air contains far
more moisture, absolute humidity than
at the north, yet the sun heat is such
that all through daylight hours this
moisture is latent, concealed. and the re-
lative humi lily is low-:rOm forty to
sixty per cent, but when the sun disap-
pears below the horizon the air cools
Immediately and it will not hold nearly
as much vapor, so that the relative hu.
nudity mounts upward to eighty or
ninety per cent as the thermometer goes
downward, until the dew point or satura-
ton of the atmosphere is reached. This
is period ofchillness, during winter and
requires great care.
Invalils should always be within doors
when the sun sets and should remain
there. Not only should the invalids te
within doors but he should have q fire,
even when the thermometer indicates
sixty'five to seventy degrees F. To at
tain this he will often need be insistence,
especially if boarding in private family,
who are mostly of very small means and
themselves not accustomed to guard
against these changes.
The writer has known invalids stop
ping in sO-called hotels to suffer and take
colds jeopardiziDg their lives, because the
proprietor thought fire unnecessary,
when the Thermometer stood sixty-fiye
degrees F.
The object of the fire is not so much

more easily resisted when the relative

allure OF sixty-fve degrees with relative
humidity of ninety per cent. is excessively
chilling and a serious matter.
From weather studies we turn to cloth
ing. Here we need not pause long. There
i little difference to be made between
ordinary clothing in Florida in winter
and that worn elsewhere in the United
States. In place of furs light wraps and
cloaks should be substituted. Under
garments should be the same as at the
North and of wool or silk. The invalid
should, however, be carefully provided
with three weights Or thicknesses of them
very light, medium and heavy-and
though he may not consult theremome-
tor, barometer and hygrometor before
determining the weight to be worn for
the day, yet he will insure health and
comfort by consulting closely atmos-
pheric conditions before decision.
AS q rule it is best to be on the right
side of extra warm as against cold. We
are often astonished at the great risks
taken, most frequently by women, in the
way OF being cool on a warmish day.
From wooden clothing they change to
lawns in the middle Of the day and at
nightiall are forgetful OF the change in
the temperature or regard it not. AS q
matter of health it is far better to pres

You are probably unaware then that the
climate you describe is unattainabIe
that there is no such climateas you have
prof cted in the camera of your imagina-
ton anywhere in the world, unless posi-
bly, in some mountain fortress of Central
America. In order to have warmth and
evenness of temperature considerable at
mospheric moisture is absolutely neces-
sary. So all being considered, if warmth
and even temperature, blue skies and
abundance of heavenly sunshine are de-
sirable for you, there is no place in the
United States and hardly any in the
winter world where they are better COM
bined than in Florida. Youshould then,
if coming here, consider details in relation
to the climate, learn its peculiarities, and
so adjust yourself as to receive largely of
the many benefits it has to bestow.
The portion of Florida best adapted to
invalids-the peninsula parts practi-
cally an island and possesses the charac-
teristics of an island climate 1t projects
from the main land in a narrow strip
about 100 miles wide for distance OF
400 miles into the cauldrOn-like waters
of the Gulf of Mexico. Around it's horn
shaped extremity the warm gulf stream
sweeps and turns to the Ror theast, across
the broad Atlantic. AS compared with
all other ocean waters to the nOrthward
and to the far southwark these gulf
waters are quite boiling, sending forth
vapor continually. This causes warm
moist air, balmy air in which Florida
is nearly always immersed. 1t is this
that gives the air delicious softness. so
grateful to the weary and worn, and it is
the myriad of fresh green branches of
pine trees through which the wind utters
monotone music, that impregnates it
with aromatic resinous adors.
Over us bends sky of Italian blue and
golden sunlight glitters on bud, leaf and
flower. Occasionally mountaia-like mas
es OF downy white clouds cross the sky
toward the north, beautiful in Irregular

Let US turn and look at the lines of

nor is Florida perfect. For almost every
blizzard that sweeps over st. Louis, st.

Thanksgiving Day.

That the war for the Union accom-
plished more things than the abolition
of slavery. is only one of the many in
stances in which causes have produced
effects not anticipated. The best
thing the war did for us was to
make us a nation. Daniel Webster
said II know no North, no South no
East, no West,'' but he stood almost
alone. Now there is year by year less
talk about the special interest of any
'!ssection;" we are becoming one people.
One of the best evidences of the decay
of sectionalism is the almost universal
observance of Thanksgiving Day. Be-
fore the war, it was looked upon in the
South and West as a yankee institu-
t1on; now the President of the United
States and the Governors of most OF
the states recommend its observance
by formal proclamation. It is a great

WHEREAS, It is quite generally
believed that the sudden death of
Albert Schilling was caused by the ex-
cessive use of alcoholic drinks, given
to him without reserve by the legal
lied saloons and other parties, causing
septic or gangrenous plurisy, which
was produced, we have every reason to
believe, by alcoholic excess and by no
other disease or physical infrmity or
cause whatever; and
WHEREAS, It is the opinion of this
order that in his sudden death the
party or parties auxiliary or in any
way responsible for his death should
be dealt with according to law, the
same as if his death had been caused
in any other unlawful way; therefore
be it
ResOlred, That it is the sense of this
order that the matter be thoroughly
investigated by the proper authorities,
also that we would call upon all law
abiding citizens to help us abolish
from our community the liquor curse
that is continually causing so much
disturbance, trouble and sorrow in our
midst; also be it
Resolved, That we tender to the
stricken mother and family, who in
the death of their son and brother
have lost that support that they are
now so much in need of, our heartfelt
