Mayors Office, Ocala, Aug. Is

Mayors Office, Ocala, Aug. Is.
CITIZENS: In the hospital of
the Florida regiment at Fernan-
dina are many sick soldiers.
Some of these are our own dear
Ocala boys, whose patriotism we
admire and whose sickness we
must alleviate. They need such
ordinary necessities during their
treatment in the hospital as
sheets, comforts, pajamas, pill
low cases, towels, all Of which we
are informed are lacking in that
branch OF the service.
At the request Of the Ladies
Relief Society Of Fernandina, and
the suggestion Of q number Of the
ladies Of Ocala, [ ask for contri-
buttons for those articles for the
hospitals use. Already enough
cloth for a number of garments
for the sick has been contributed
and ladies who are willing, can
get it to make it up by calling
upon Mes. Hooker and Mrs.
Badger, to whom also contribu-
tions may be delivered.
A box will be forwarded to
Fernandina the latter part of the
week and | earnestly request that
this appeal will be responded to
by then, as the necessity Is now.
Very respectfully,
JOHN CT. REARDON.

Passed Over the River

Mr.. e. M. Henderson, who has
been severely i'll since July, but
allIng for a year, died last night
at the home Of his sister, Mrs.
Paranour,sin this city, Of con-
sumption. He was brought here
from the High Springs hospital
early in July, where he was trea-
ted by his son, Charles, who is a
physician in that institution, but
then 1T was feared the worst had
come aud his earthly career
would be Of short duration.
w. p. Norman was in con-
stant attendance on the deceased
and whatever of care, nursing,
food and medical skill could do to
prolong his life was done for him.
Doctor Newsom was his physi-
clan. Mr.. Henderson was born
in Georgia siXty-one years ago
last September, and came to
Marion county shortly after the
war and became q resident Of the
Grahamville district, where he
successfully farmed and raised
oranges.
In more recent years he ht =
come the superintendent of the
Heather Island grove. For
tWenty-Seven years he had been a
consistent and faithful member
Of the Baptist church. The fun
eral sermon will be preached by
Rev. Ill. 6. Martin 1T the Ockla-
waha Baptist church tomorrow
morning at 10 o'clock and the
burial ceremony conducted under
the auspices Of the GrahamvillC
MasOnS, Of which lodge he had
been a leading member for years.
Those left to mourn his death
are Mrs. Henderson, his two sons,
Charles and VIII, and daughter,
Mrs. SLanaland. In every rrIa-
1Ion Of life Mr.. Henderson was a
most exemplary man and citi.
zen. His friends appreciated his
worth: enemies, he had few, and
his .n:tny acts Of kindness to those
in distress and trouble, are
greatly appreciated by those who
were the recipients Of his gener.
Gus nature. In this sad hour OI
bereavement, to wife, children
and f. ends, The Star extends sin

ample scope in the program she pre-
scented. Her costumes were pretty and
catching, and she danced and sang
and talked SO charminglv that en-
cores were frequent. Her songs were
new and pleasing. Mr.. Walker. To-

Upon Her-A Grand, Complete
Cure by Hoods sarsapariIIa
After Others Failed.

PItcF StfteFS dIteus
al was taken with neuralgia in my
head and eyes. Not long after this, g
scrofula sore appeared on my left cheek,
extending from my upper lip to my eye.
Other sores came on my neck and Cd my
right arm and one of my limbs. They
were very troublesome and painful and
soon became great running sores. MY
face looked so bad that some of my
neighbors could not bear to look at me-
and advised me to wear bandage, but I
feared this would irritate the sore and
make it worse. So
Could Not Hide the Sores.
My niece, who was familiar with a case
similar to mine, which had been cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla, urged me to try it.
Finally l was persuaded to do SO, and in
a short time l saw it was helping me-
The sores began to heal and the neu-
ralgia in my head was better. In few
months the sores on my arms and limbs
all healed; those on my neck gradually
disappeared and now they are all rome.
l havehever had any symptom OF scrofuls
since. One large scar on my right arm is
all the sign that remains of my terrible
affliction. The neuralgia is also cured.''

Mulberry Sellers.

One day while Mark Twain and
Charles Dudley Warner were walking
together they happened to begin dis
cussion of the modern novel, and one or
the other suggested that it might be a
good plan to burlesque it. Later while
journeying together to Boston this sug
gestion took definite shape, and on their
return the work was begun, one author
writing a chapter, the other taking up
the threads of the story the next day.
and both critically examining the result
each evening and asking the opinions of
their wives as to the success Of each
stage of the undertaking. Finally they
collected all the manuscript, of which
there was too great a quantity, and
jointly condensed it. 1t was owing to a
suggestion by Mr.. Warner that the
chief character in the tale was called
Colonel Eschol Sellers, and it is fact
that the man whose name was taken-a
man supposed to be long dead-made q
fiery demand for satisfaction, visiting
Hartford for that purpose. In later edi-
tions of the story the name "Eschol"
was changed to Mulberry. Ladies'

The differences between men and
women are we'll marked in many ways,
but it may not be generally known how
great this difference is in the matter of
color appreciation, not to speak of color
blindness. A large percentage Of men
are impervious to the sensation of color;
they neither notice nor appreciate it.
Women, ON the contrary, like many
animals, are strongly attracted and re-
PEELED by color, which to the average
male mind remains mystery. The or
binary man is quite satisfied if his help
mate dresses in black or in the proven
bially agreeable white muslin. Why she
should seek for harmonies and novelties
of color, why she should arrange and
match and discuss various hues with
the seriousness he would give to bust
ness matter. passes his understanding.
And just as color leaves man cold,
so does form woman, which accounts
for her indifference to statuary and her
frequent incapacity for drawing. Louisa,
marchioness of Waterford, was an in
stance of this. Her coloring was superb
and the envy of artists, her drawing de-
fective and poor, and when she tried
late in life to learn to draw she only
succeeded in spelling her fine instinct
for color.-London Graphic.

Gamer Sauce Gamers.

The caper, familiar in caper sauce
and used also as garnish for salads, is
imported from Spain and France. Capers
are grown in Italy, but none is import
ed from there into this country.
Capers are sorted into four sizes, of
which the smallest are known CONNER
cially as nonpareils, and the next larger
as surfnes. The next larger in French
capers are capucines, and the largest
capotes, while the next to the largest
and the largest Of Spanish oapers are
known respectively as capotes No. l
and No. Q. The smallest capers are the
most desirable and bring the most mon
ey. French capers sell for more than
Spanish. Capers are imported almost
wholly in bulk in kegs of Is or 16 gal
Ions and barrels of about 40 gallons in
brine or vinegar. A few capers are i'm
ported in glass, but they are mostly put
up in this country. Capers grow on a

When 81 900 Looked Big.

Divide anything up into pairs and
you magnify Il. A certain wise man
took this way to give his wife an idea
of how much 81 900 is. She had no
idea of money. Her purchases were
enormous. 1t happened one day that
her eye fell upon a magnificent ring,
and she coveted it. 1t cost 81, 900. But
what was 81, 1000 to her in comparison
with the ring? OF course her husband
consented to the purchase. What else
could dutiful, affectionate husband
do? But he tried this method of educat-
ing his wife concerning the great price
of the ring. He instructed his banker
to send her the 81 900 in small pieces
pennies, dimes, quarters. In came tho
money, bagful after bagful. She never
had such an idea of $1,000 before.
When the money was piled before her,
it alarmed her. The price of the ring
went up hundredfold, and was con-
sidered at once an extravaganza which
she of her own option abandoned. -

In the north Of London there is lit
tie plot of ground where old clothes are
buried and afterward exhumed for a
curious purpose 1t is fat, barren and
destitute piece Of ground and presents a
very melancholy spectacle. Little wood
en- stumps, bearing numbers, mark the
graves.
There is paper mill near by, which
finds it rather difficult to get suitable
material for the manufacture of special

The ordinary old rags are no good.
The rags themselves have to be manu-
featured. Old coats, old trousers and
old dresses are covered with wet soil,
and after few weeks rotting are ex-
humed.
A corner is set aside for old linen
goods. The linen is placed in layers in
box, with soft rich soil between each
layer, and then buried.
Limewater is then sprinkled over
the grave, and after fortnight's rot
ting the linen is reduced to mere
skeleton, which is taken out of the box,
laid fiat in warm blanket and rush
ed off to the paper mill.
Though it is only the size of foot
ball ground, it contains 1000 graves,
which are marked by 1900 wooden
stumps, each bearing number

Verdi md the Priest.

Verdi, when boy, had a gift for
Latin, and the village priest advised
him to become priest. Meanwhile the
lad became an office boy in Barezzi S
wholesale grocery store, and for little
over 81 a year played the organ in the
church at Roncole, but one day it hap
pened that Rev. DR.. Seletti, who had
decided that the boy should be monk,
was officiating at mass while Verdi
played the organ. The priest was struck
with the unusual beauty of the music,
and at the close of the service expressed
desire to see the organist. Verdi APP
peared, and the priest recognized him
as the pupil whom he had sought to
turn from music to theology.
"Whose music were you playing?"
asked Seletti sit was beautiful"
Verdi said shyly that he had brought
no music with him that day and had
been improvising. $50 played as I
felt" said he. ...
"AhW exclaimed Seletti. Il advised
you wrongly. You must be no priest,
but musician.
After that the way was easier. The
priestly influence on his side opened
many a door to him.-Youth's Com
