Florida Style of Eating Oranges.

There are many ways of eating or
anges, but the Floridian has probably
the most common sense way of disposing
of the fruit. He uses sharp knife and
pares the orange much the same as one
would peel an apple, taking care not to
cut through the white rind that protects
the pulp. Then holding the orange at
the poles and cutting through the cen
ter the seed pods are removed. The rest
is easy. AS a colored boy in jackson
vile said, Put yoah face in it and eat
till you come to the rind. New York

He is only printer" Such was
the sneering remark of leader in a cir
Gle of aristocracy-the Goldfish quality.
Who was the Earl Of Stanhope? He
was only a printer. What were Prince
Edward William and Prince Napoleon:
Proud TO call themselves printers. The
present car of Russia, the crown prince
of Prussia and the Duke of Battenburg
are printers, and the emperor of China
works in private printing office almost
every day.
William Caxton, the father of Eng
hsh literature, was practical printer.
What were G. p Morris, N p Willis,
James Gale, Charles Richardson, James
Parker, Horace Greeley, Charles Dick
ems, James Buchanan, Simon Cameron
and Schuyler Colfax? Printers, all, and
practical ones
Mark Twain, Amos Cummings, Bret
Harte and Opie Reid are plain, practical
printers, as were Artemus Ward, Petro-
leum V. Nasty and Sut Lovingood.
Senator Plumb was a printer, and 50 is
James S. Hogg of Texas, and the leader
of science and philosophy in his day
made it his boast that he was a printer
In fact, thousands of the most brill

ADVERTISING.

Time was when merchants felt that the
money they spentln newspaper advertis-
ing WAS almost thrown away. Merchants
were not awake to their opportunities and
their announcements were dull, uninter-
est.ng and often gross exaggeratIOLs. Now
adays advertisements are business news of
value to the reader, and 1t is the fault of
the advertiser if they be not read
Advertisements are becoming more
truthful every day. Busn, SIS men know
that their news must be true. or it will
fail they remember the story of the boy
aud the wolf 1t is safe to say that any
woman who makes business of reading
business advertisements will in
cre:.Se the buying power of her husband S
dollars AS much as 25 per cent.
The columns of a newspaper offer the
best medium for business announcements,
and it is the systematic. persistent adver-
tisrr that reaps the richest harvest. In
t,king medicine the regularity of the dose
il almost as important the drug itself.
That the best i, the cheapest applies to
advertising. A comparatively small sum
may represent the difference in the cost of
space in Il paper of circulation and one
which has no standing.
The Democrat for 1894 will have an
average daily circulation of $500. 1t is
ought 10y people who want it for its actual
worth 1t does not attempt to work up a
fictitious circulation by gift schemes; it
stands on its merits. Our pressroom is
open to advertisers.

CAYLOR'S BALL GOSSIP
Stirring Scenes Recalled by a
Meeting With Hatfield.
RED STOCKINGS VERSUS BUCKEYES

a Baseball Battle Royal That Excited Gin
cinnati Nearly Quarter of Century Ago.
Jouett Meekin, One of the New Twirlers
of the New York Club.
A medium sized, well dressed man of the
purely blond type and wearing a mustache
which was almost white crossed Fifth ave
nue. at Twenty-third street, New York, a
few days ago. My attention was attracted
to him, and as l realized who he was l re
called the time when he was the most talk ed
about manswho ever played baseball. He
was John Hatfield, the great out fielder OF
nearly quarter of a century ago, but he
looked not half a dozen years older and
stepped with scarcely any the less agility
than he did away back in the years just fol
lowing the close of the civil war.
He still holds the official record rs the
long distance thrower of the profession,
which he made Oct. Is, 1872, at the Union
grounds in Brooklyn while mem Der of the
Mutuals. the distance being 1873 yards, l
foot and ~ inches. The late Ed William
son several times came within a few inches
of Hatfield throw, but never quite equaled
it. Ed Crane and Southern league player
of last season. Twitchell, are reported to
have beaten Hatfield's throw, but as in both
cases the wind was an important aid to the
throwers neither instance can go on record.
Hatfield's first great prominence as a ball
player was made, l believe. in the sixties at
Cincinnati, and it was of him as profess
sional at that time that I was reminded
when l saw him crossing Fifth avenue. He
was the subject in those early days of the
game of the greatest local excitement
which ever arose over game of ball.
In 1867 or 1868 he was a member of the
Cincinnati Red Stockings, which in 1869
and 1870 made such an unchallenged record.
That season the Red Stockings had local

Telling Trees by Electricity.

Trees are felled by electricity in the
great forests of Galicia. For cutting
comparatively soft woods the tool is in
the form of an anger, which is mounted
on a carriage, and is moved to and fro
and revolved at the same time by small
electric motor. AS the cut deepens,
wedges are inserted to prevent the rift
from closing. and when the tree is near
ly cut through an AK or handsaw is used
to finish the work. In this way trees are
felled very rapidly and with but little
labor.-LOndon Tit-Bits.
