graver, has engraved the alphabet and
eight other letters and figures, making
thirty four in all, on the head Of an
ordinary pin. This surpasses any
feat of the kind on record, and re-
quired the best of skill and patience to
accomplish. The alphabet alone has
been engraved frequently heretofore

country is well described, and the marvel

dertul healthfulness of the climate are told

er MIND. Manatee county must be the
garden-spot of all Florida, and the won
der is that 1t has not sooner been settled
and the latent riches of it's soil turned into
good American dollars. A most charming
feature of these booklets is their typo,
graphical appearance. They are printed
on handmade paper, and are DELIGHTFULLY."-
illustrated with Photographic half-tone
plates and, ornamented with decorative de-
signs in fiat monotones that make them
really valuable brochures. Persons in
terested in Florida, and especially in the
possibilities of orange growing and truck
gardening, below the frost line, will find
these booklets not only interesting, but full
OF valuable and practical information.
