An old friend of DIR. Holmes says
About 30 years ago, being i'll Boston one
day, called upon him and was ushered
into his library unannounced. As the
door opened heard a singular scraping
sound, and the doctor rose TO meet me
with slightly embarrassed air.

fitted out with turning lathe and tools.
"This is the way l rest myself, F" he
said. but there are people in the world
who would think that if "A physician
made 'jimcracks' he must be mad. So

DR.. Holmes was one of the first of our
physicians to see and point out the dan

often subject themselves He insisted
upon the value of a hobby. some mental
occupation differing from the ordinary

I did, it IS because hc did not ex-
pain himself more fully. Those
who know me- best know that l
do Lot knowingly misreprcsent
things.
Secondly. he says he told ne
could have the money. | have no
recollection OF such promise. He
did say that he would have some
money as soon as the work in my
hands was finished. That seemed
to imply that l would get some Of
it.
Thirdly, Mr.. Williams states
that he was surprised to her that !
had made a mortgage. This | can
not understand, for he certainly
knew that prior to my wife's
death she was sick a long tins and
that the ordeal l am now undergo
ir.. has Mt only inc7p2citated M
mind, but it has taken all nv
money. On Wednesday, when l
was notified that my child could
only live few hours and was in
structed to ship 4 casket l made an
other attempt to ask Mr.. Wi liams
for money and came down stairs
and asked for Mr.. Williams. Mr..
Mock, the foreman of the black
smith department, told me that
Mr.. and Mrs. Williams were both
at Dunnellon. What could l do?
l mortgaged my personal property,
which was the only legitimate way
| had to obtain the necessary
money to give my baby Christian
burial.

lish such an article, for it makes

claimer of the Everglades, dropped
dead Thurday at II am in the

In 1886 Marcus Whitman crossed the
Rocky mountains which were supposed to
bound the United States on the west. In
the UNEMPLOYED northwest he was mission
airy to the Indians but he had the interests
of his country so at heart that in 1912 when
the English came near securing the north
west he made the long trip to Washington,
made known the possibilities of that vast
region and returning with band of emf
grants proved its availability for occupation.
Here he planted the stars and stripes and
they have remained, and the northwest was
saved from the grasping hand of John Bull
For this loyalty Marcus Whitman paid his
life, being murdered by Indians who had
been melted to kill him. Rev. Cushing
Eels started a school, now Whitman col

other competing firms In the field with good
offers.

design. 1t is contracted to be In place by
May -. and the entire cost including trans
pOrtation, erection and water motor by which
the bellows will be blown, Is $4,000 The
case is to be of quartered white oak, highly
finished. The organ will have two manuals,
nineteen speaking stops and a total of 1,036
pipes. The action is on the tubular pneu-
matte principle which is said to be the most
responsive known and even more rapid
than the action of a pianoforte. The front
of the organ will present apleasing appear

is the season when the tired body, weaken
ed organs and nervous system yearn for a
building-up medicine like Hoods Sarsapa-

weather and, in fact, delay giving attention
to their physical condition so long that a
long siege of sickness is inevitable. To rid
the system of the impurities accumulated
during the winter season, to purify the
blood and to invigorate the whole system.
there is nothing equal to Hoods Sarsaparil-

parilla now. 1t will do you good. Read
the testimonials published in behalf of
Hoods Sarsaparilla, all from reliable, CRATE
