Free Cure For Men.
A MICHIGAN MAN OFFERS To
SEND HIS DISCOVERY FREE.
.laims to be a Benefactor to Weakened
Mankind.

There IS Always more or less suspicion
ttached to anything that Is onereu Tree
hut sometimes a man so overtiows with
renerosity that he cannot rest until his
iscoyery is known to the world, in order
that his fellow men may profit by what
he has discovered. 1t is upon this princl-
10 that a resident of Kalamazoo. Mich.,
desires to send free to mankind pre-
scription which will cure them OF any
orm of nervous debility; relieves them OF
II the doubt and uncertainty which such
men are peculiarly liable to and restores
the organs to natural size and vlgor. AS
it costs nothing to try the experiment II
ould seem that any man, suffering with
the nervous troubles that usually attack
men who never stopped to realize what
might be the final result, ought to be
eeply interested in a remedy which Will
restore them to health, strength and
igor. without which they continue to live
an existence OF untold misery. AS the
remedy in question was the result OF
many years research as to what cOmbina-
ton would be peculiarly effective in re-
storing to men the strength they need, it
would seem that all men suffering with
any form of nervous weakness ought to
write for such remedy at once. A re-
quest to II. G. Odds, Box 1922, Kalama-
z, :, Mich, stating that you are not send
ing for the prescription out of idle Curl
osity, but that you wish to make use Of
the medicine by giving it trial, will be
answered promptly and without evidence
to where information came from.
The prescription is sent free and al
though some may wonder how Mr.. Odds
can afford to give away his discovery
there is no doubt about the offer being
genuine. Cut rs out and send to Mr..
dds that he may know how you came to
write him.

Electric Bitters Is medicine suited for

medicine has often averted long and

The Model Conductor

The famous Bill Arr, in recent
letter to the Atlanta COnStitu-
ton, has the following to say
about one OF our Florida cCuduc
tors on the Plant System:
| came from Elorid. ST Mon
day and was impressed with the
Kindness and attention Of u con-
ductOr, a Mr. Sea bring, who runs
from Tampa to Waycross. No
woman was too humble or poorly
clad to receive lis considerable
care. He assisted them in and
out and took their babies in his
arms and provided them comfort
able seats and had his porter to
take water to their little ones
He not only answered questions
willingly and politely, but gave
more information than was asked
for. Most all conductors are civil
and courteous, but some answer
you liz a perfunctory manner and
pass on. Mr.. Seabring's face
seemed to invite you TO ask for
something, SO that he might
oblige you. He did not know me
nor that | was observing him,
but l cannot refrain from saying
be is the model conductor.

An Absurd Claim

We are glad to know that the
proprietor of the Ocala Star has
taken proper legal proceedings to
test his claim of $4,000 against
the state for publishing the de-
llnquent tax list Of Marion cOun-
ty. Mr.. Porter has instituted
mandamuS proceedings against
Comptroller Reynolds to compel
him to show why he refuses to
audit the bill of expenses. At
tcrney General Lamar conceded
with the comptroller in his de-
cisiOn. This decision was based
on the fact that a sale of the
property advertised could not be
made unless the tax collector was
present. In this instance Tax
Collector Poser was at Hot
Springs, Ark, unable to leave his
room, owing to illness, to make
the sale or be present, and his
deputy, it was contended, could
perform all other official acts but
make tax sale.
The ground Of refusal to audit
may be law, but if it is bad law
and without equity or justice to
sustain it. The idea that a news
paper publisher must incur a loss
because q tax collector fails,
either intentionally or providen-
TALLY, to perform his official du-
ties, is absurd and should be de-
clared untenable. One man should
never be made to suffer for the
acts of another. Let each tub
stand on its own bottom.
If Mr.. Porter has obeyed the
law in publishing the ADVERTISE
ment he should be paid for it
promptly, and it is the general
opinion that he has done his duty.
1t was no fault of his that the
tax collector failed to perform his
part. The law never contem-
plated that a contractor and an
other should jointly perform a
service and if one failed in his part
both were guilty of negligence
and only one must be made to pay
the penalty.
1t is about time that the pub-
fishers of newspapers stopped
fighting one another and come
together and demand their rights
and fight those who are attempt
ing to deprive them of what is
their due. There is too much
kind consideration given to men
whose acts show them to be enc
mics of newspapers, and right
here we appeal to the brethren
throughout the State to unite for
battle against every public official
who attempts to deprive the press
of business and the compensation
thereof. 1t is our duty to each
other, and we should not fail to
do it.-Metroplis.
