FLORIDA'S ADVANTAGES.
One of Them Is It's Inducements to
Home Seekers,

One of Them Is It's Inducements to
Home Seekers.
Editor Morning News: A recent edito-
rial in which you ably recounted the many
advantages possessed by Florida reminds
me of one you forgot to mention.
NO state Up the union offers greater in
ducements to the homeseeker, for In no
other state can one live cheaper or more
comfortably. Energy, industry, economy,
and common sense are the only requisites
TO insure success A family consisting of
one sick man and three delicate women,
who five years ago, began life in South
Florida upon absolutely nothing, now own
their nome and live as comfortably as one
could wish. Though well-born and highly
cultured, they worked hard making money
at what they cauld each helping TO build
the home. This is but one instance of
many.
The servant problem, which has caused
so much discussion the world over has
been most satisfactorily solved by our
South Florida women, who do their own
cooking, washing, housekeeping and sew
ing, yet find time for literature, art and
society. Though distinctly not of the
knickerbocker order of new women, when
the occasion demands it, our wives and
uau6hI0IS are ever ready 10 aod 70 tne
family finances by cooking for boarders,
teaching. clerking, etc, etc.
we are, in short, perfectly independent,
and waste neither time, thought nor money
upon appearances. Mental and moral
qualifications being the same, Miss A,
who wraps tomatoes each season, is Just
as well received in society as Miss b.,
whose father employs the former lady We
have class distinctions, but they are of
merit, rather than Of money and blood
our food costs no more than elsewhere.
our clothes are but little more expensive
than Mother Ewes very original wardrobe,
while fuel may be had for the gathering
thereof. Add to these advantages the
blessing of a perfect health-giving cli-
mate, and what more could mortal desire?
