From Thriving Malabar

A few days ago r. r. Carroll.
our city editor, was pleasantly
surprised by receiving by express
a big box of pineapples, tomatoes,
egg plants, etc, from his father,
G.. G.. Carroll, the real estate
agent and postma ster Of Mala bar,
a thriving little town on the In
dian River, situated between that
famous stream and the ocean.
Two Of the plneappleS, OF the
Porto Rico variety, weighing %
pounds each, have been on eXhl-
bitIon for the past three days in
A. F.. Burnett's window, where
they have attracted the attention
Of hundreds, the verdict Of nearly
all being that they were the finest
they had ever seen, and certainly
the fine st ever shown in Ocala.
The pincappIes were grown on
pine, or scrub land, that was for
merly considered almost worth
less, but now produces, in
"pines, from $500 to 540O on an
acre each year.
Mr.. Carroll will be remembered
in Ocala, as representing Citrus
county in the S-mi-Tropical FIX
position. held here in 1890, and
still earlier, the SubTrOpical in
Jacksonville. He was Il commits
sioner for Citrus county in those
DAYS, and after the county s
formation was one Of its foremost
public-spirited men, and did as
much as anyone to build up his
county ana the state in general.
Since leaving Citrus county he
has been enga gcd III the real es
tate business in the West, but for
the past three years has been at
bis present location, where he IS
again recognized as one of that
country's promoters, and has
been the means Of bringing and
locating there many valuable set
tiers, having some excellent
bargains to offer them IN the
lands of his productive and at
tractlVe section.

SCROFULA
1t is Foul Biood's ADVERTISE
ment
But 1t Is Soon Cured by Hoods
Sarsapariiia.

Yes, Scrofula, if anything, may be called
the advertisement of foul blood. 1t is the
scourge of the world offensive, painful,
facilitating, stubborn and we'll nigh
unendura BILE.
Outward applications do not cure, they
only drive the difficulty to new quarters.
Emollients may palliate, they cannot
abolish the evil. There is but one sure
way out, and that is to eliminate the
faint from the blood.
There is one remedy that can effect this,
and it is the only one that, SO far as we
know, has almost invariab bly, succeeded -
even where the system has been poisoned
by long years OF faint, and the ravages to
be repaired are tremendous. That remedy
Is Hoods Sarsa parilla. Read this:
"My daughter was afflicted with i'm
pure blood. There were running sores
all over her body and they caused her
much suffering. We tried medicines that
were recommended as blood purifiers,
but could not see that they did any good.
A friend told me about Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla and began giving the girl this med
icine. The result was that she was per-
fectly cured after taking few bottles.
She has had no symptoms of scrofula
sores since that time" MARIETTA NJ.
