The Florida season opened to-day by
the Inauguration of the fast Florida train

tine following afternoon $3.50. and will be
composed exclusively of Pullman Club,
Dining, Compartment, Drawing-room,
Sleeping, Library and Observation Car,
also carrying one Drawn groom Sleeping
car to Aiken and Augusta. The Southern
Railway approaching the high class Of
travel between the East and Florida, has
given its patrons the best example of per
lection in railway passenger service in
this delightful train, the Southern ,:
Palm Limited" which is indicative Of vic

furthermore appropriate that this very su
perior train should bear this particular

husband was sailor, and when he
went out on one of his voyages she
had begged him to bring her a carpet
for her best room. AS 1t happened, he
did not visit n port where he could
buy a carpet, but rolled up in little
shop on the quay at Malta he had
found the tapestry and purchased it,
thinking II might answer the purpose.
It was too large for the room, and the
woman had to turn a big piece under.
She folded the piece back, revealing
part of the superb border of fruit and
flowers, wrought In silk and gold
thread, as fresh as when It was first
worked But the owner eyed it with
contempt. She never did like the
queer picture thing, she declared.
1t was the opportunity of lifetime.
Mr.. Miller promptly offered her the
choice of any carpet in the stores in
exchange for her queer picture
thing" and the woman MS promptly
accepted the offer. They went down.
town together. and she selected, with
unbounded delight, hideous pattern
Of glowing reds and greens. Her face
was full Of triumph when she re-
turned. The best room at last was to
have carpet that was carpet!
1t is safe to say that no bargain ever
gave more complete satisfaction to
both parties than the one made that
morning in Derby street, Salem.
