Such a Climate!

Yesterday snOwsquall visited Or
ange, n. j., a suburb of New York
City. Ten months ago human beings
and horses were dying by the scores
in the streets of that city from the eff
fects of the intense heat and even
those who fled to the summer resorts
were not much better off. Within the
next seven weeks such scenes may be
repeated.
Yet the amount of commisseratiOn
wasted on those who dwell in the truly
temperate state of Florida in the sum-
mer by the residents of the intemper-
ate zone is something sad to contem-
plate. ~ man who freezes on the LIST
of June and rightly fears sunstroke or
heat prostration on the LIST of August
will tell the Floridian that nothing
could induce him to risk a summer in
this state.
The man who leaves the Land OF
Flowers this summer for the north,
except when business compels him,
deserves the fate which turks for him
in that region of perpetual temper
allure nges.-Citizen.

which many medical men have acted
with excellent results. More and
stronger articles have been written in
California and by practitioners of the
northern states, and which are bet
ter adapted to medical journal than

writer claims regeneration from
continued use by old people land that
very small amount of the fluid ex-
tract will completely cure nervous
prostration. 1t was noticed by the In
dians and early settlers that during
the season when palmetto berries
were ripe the wild animals would
leave their range and travel miles to
reach those places where the frui: was
plentiful and that they grew very fat
and active. Again, it was found that
there were places where the surface
water and shallow wells were healthy
to drink, though much discolored Che
ing reddish BROWN, the people be-
ing exempt from fevers, although the
surroundings were such that fevers
would seem to be endemic. The prob
bile reason for this phenomena is that
the water contains a decoctiOr of pal
metto, and thus an antidote to febrile
affections and is a blood purifier and
liver regulator. The beer made from
the berries by maceration in water is
very fattening, stimulating and even
Intoxicating, and has marked effect
in rejuvenating emaciated and worn
out people of both sexes, and is es-
pecially beneficial in that mental de-
preston and nervous prostration so
peculiar to women who have lived so
long time in a tropical climate. This
beer, for some strange reason, seems
unknown to most people living in
places where palmetto is plenty.
''The fixed and volatile oils of the

leaf and medicine in the fruit. Flor
ida is covered with palmetto from one
end to another, and some years hence,
when the full value of the plant is
known to the world demand will be
created for it's products that will be
worth millions to this state.
Probably the best posted man in
Jacksonville is J. w. Wellington, who
manufactures wines and tonics from
the berries. Mr.. Wellington says:
''This plant is especially vigorous
along the shores of the Indian River
and on the bodies of streams and in
land lakes of Florida. The palmetto
and it's congeners are among the most
useful plants known, and their pro-
ducts have a mercantile value equaled
by few. The entire plant makes an
excellent equal, if not SUI
perior to many of the commercial
kinds sold. From the root and trunk
of the saw palmetto can be gotten a
gum which is an excellent glue.

an astringent. From the spathe (the

collect large quantity of excellent

"It is, however, from the drupe

been made of late years which are in
demand on account of their curative

The last heard from him was on Thursday, when Stevens was still alive, as he could be heard knocking on the tim bers in response to signals from the rescuing party. The shaft was down 60 feet, not half the distance to the un- fortunate man; but the miners are working like Trojans.
