Boston on Florida Oranges.

There are many things we get from
the Boston journals that are not al
ways acceptable to the South; but
once in awhile-when digestion is
good, perhaps-there come down to us
words that are as balm to wounded
souls, so appreciative are they.
For instance, the Transcript says:
ITO many tastes there is no orange
grown that compares with the pro-
duct of Florida Pitted against the
world, we stand, you see, at the head.
Our people have always claimed it
and so accept the verdict that comes
from Boston with equanimity.
California is our great orange pro-
ducer, but though the fruit from that
section is of fine quality, it does not
equal the best of that which comes
to us from the older source of supply,
Florida" This extract is not likely to
appear in the Riverside or Los An
geles papers, where the Washington
Naval flourishes and is really the on
ly good orange that comes from the
Golden West.-JacksOnville Sun.

The Bear Story Confirmed.

Those who happend 10 be in the
vicinity Of the depot Thursday morn
ing when the 8 o'clock train from
Jacksonville came in, were attracted
by a large black bear which lay in
the door of the baggage car. Upon
inquiry an interesting story was I'M
folded by the trainmen. As the train
was nearing the southern boundary Of
Marion County. before day that morn
ing. the engineer saw something on
the track ahead which he took to be
a very large hog. AS the train bore
down upon him, and the headlight
blinded him, the bear reared upon his
hind legs, ready for an attack On the
train, when he was knocked of the
track, which stunned him rendering
him helpless. The men put him
abroad the train, quite proud of their
achievements, showing him to people
along the line, whose curiosities were
greatly aroused at so unusual an oc-
currence, and especially is it SO in
this State where all the larger animals
have been killed out, but which were
plentiful during the war.-Tampa

A letter to Major T. D. Lancaster
from Mrs Lancaster, who accompan-
led their son, T. d. Jr, to Atlanta
several days ago to have him treated
at the Pasteur Institute for a dog bite,
says that the young man is doing
nicely and enjoying his stay in the
South's metropolis immensely.
The letter also states that Mr.. Henry
d. Stokes, who is in Atlanta on the
same mission, is getting along all
right.
The cases have been diagnosed, but
the result cannot be known until the
dog head which they took with them
has been thoroughly examined.
Mrs. Lancaster says there have been
fourteen cases Of dog bite brought to
Atlanta since their arrival, some from
South Carolina, several from Florida
and others from other sections of
Georgia.
The friends of the Ocala patients
will be glad to lean that nothing ser
ious has SO far developed in their
cases.

Nervous Dyspepsia.
Not a Patent cure-aIl, Nor Modern

Cure For Dyspepsia.
A CURE FOR ALL.

In these days of humbuggery ana

medicines, as a rule, seem 10 tnlnh
their medicines will not sell unless
they claim that it will cure every dls-
ease under the sun. And they Will
never think Of leaving out dyspepsia
and stomach troubles. They are sure
to claim that their nostrum is abso-
lutely certain to cure every dyspeptic
and he need look no further.
In the face of these absurd claims 1t
Is refreshing to note that the proprie-
tors of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
have carefully refrained from making
any undue claims or false representa-
lions regarding the merits of this most
excellent remedy for dyspepsia and
stomach troubles. They make but one
claim for it and that is that for indiges-
ton and various stomach troubles Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets is a radical cure
They go no further than this and any
man or woman suffering from tndi-
gestion, chronic or nervous dyspepsia.
who will give the remedy trial will
find that nothing is claimed for it
that the facts will not fully sustain.
1t is a modern discovery. composed
Of harmless vegetable ingredients ac-
ceptable to the weakest or most deli
cate stomach. It's greatest success in
curing stomach troubles is due to the
fact that the medicinal properties are
such that it will digest whatever
wholesome food is taken into the
stomach. no matter whether the stom-
ach is In good working order Or not.
1t rests the overworked organ and re-
plenishes the body, the blood, the
nerves, creating a healthy appetite,
giving refreshing sleep and the bless.
ings which always accompany a good
digestion and proper assimilation Of
food.
In using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's no dieting is required. Simply
eat plenty of wholesome food and take
these tablets at each meal, thus as
sisting and resting the stomach, which
rapidly regains it's proper digestive
power, when the tablets will be no
longer required.
Nervous dyspepsia is simply con.
dition in which some portion or por-
tons of the nervous system are not
properly nourished. Good digestion In
vigorates the nervous system and ev.
