AWFUL HUMOR
Would Scab Over, Break Open, and
Be Raw - Intense Suffering tor
Two Years Doctors and Medi-
cines Failed to Help Her.
CURED BY CUTlCURA
AT COST OF IS CENTS

Writing under date of Aug. IS, 1904,
Mrs. L. c. Walker, of S fremont ST.,
Woodfords, Me-, says: My sister
had a terrible humor on her shoulder
when she was eighteen months old,
causing intense suffering for two years.
We had several doctors, and tried
everything, but in spite of all we
did it kept spreading. One day 1t
would scab over and then crack open
and a watery matter ooze from 1t and
the scabs would all fall off. 1t would
be raw for a time, then scab over
again. Some one recommended Cut1-
cura, and we Immediately procured
box of Cuticura Ointment, and cake
of Cuticura Soap. ShewaS much bet
ter after the first bath with warm water
and soap, and an application of the
Ointment. Before it was half gone we
saw marked change for the better,
and she was entirely cured, without
scar being left, by the one box of Olnt-
ment and one cake of Soap. Her skin
is now entirely clear, and she has
not had sign of trouble since"

watching the proceedings of the leg
islature at more sessions than<.any
other newspaper man in the state.
What he says may, therefore, besasre-
lied upon as coming considerably
nearer the truth than what is said by
the long-range critics who have no
intimate knowledge of the legislative
proceedings, but criticise simply be-
cause it is "faddish. "-Starke Tele-

A TEACHER OF THE CULT

& @ =

Bitterly attacking the cult of which |
he was once an enthusiastic expo E,
nent. DR.. Chas. G. Pease has resigned
as member of the First Church of |
Christ, Scientist, and also from the
mother church in Boston, He re-
nounces the belief as "a fabric of de-
ceit, falsehoOd and dishonesty" and
as grave danger to the cOmmu-
nifty" In book of 100 pages he de-
cants upon abuses he alleges exist in
the practice of the so-called healing
and brings up battery after battery
against TIE ramparts of the system
established by Mrs. Mary Baker G.
Eddy.
1.-The foundation principle" DIR.
Pease writes in the Introductory
pages, ''Of the teaching is that of de-
NAL. We read in Science and Health,
(Mrs. Eddy's book: Deny the ex-
istence of matter and we destroy the
belief in these conditions, and with
it disappears the foundation of dis
ease.'
So In Christian Science there
is just enough scriptural truth to
feat the deceptive, hypocritical,
hypnotic human philosophy of teach,
ing, which is poisonous narcotic to
the spiritual perceptive power of the
mind. Self-complacency and self
love pass for Christianity, and dis
honesty, falsehood, deception, tres
pass in the individual pass as virtue"
DIR. Pease declares that by Christ
ian Scie ice the conscience is biunted
and that he has reason to believe
that with this new thought leavening
the world there is more perjury in
the courts than ever before He says
he does not believe that Mrs. Eddy
had a full realization of her danger

Some Reflections from Old Timers.


The death of Mrs Sarah a. Harris
has called forth great many letters,
and especially from those who knew
Ocala in the stage coach period.
Mr.. Y. c. Petit, writing from the
City of Mexico, says:
Av. Balderas, No. IL, Mexico City.
June IA, 1905.
Mr.. Frank Harris, Ocala, Fla:
Dear Friend-I feel that a word
from one known as among the ''drum-
mer'' class, who knew and remem-
bers we'll and gratefully the many
pleasant attentions of Mr.. and Mrs.
Harris, will be appreciated by you,
who always regarded the deceased
with what seemed to me the love of
child for it's parents.
Among the many spots endeared to
me through my 26 years labor on the
road, Ocala stands well nigh first,
and the unvarying kindness of both
Mr.. and Mrs. Harris is one of the
early and endearing memories of my
life as travelling salesman.

ers, and their virtues transmitted are

r. Hillyer, of Washington, ID. c.,
who lived in Ocala and was guest
of the Ocala House for number of
years in the ''old days.:
1865 Whitney Ave-.
June Is, 1895.
Dear Frank read the account in
the last Banner of the demise of dear
old Aunt Sarah, and your sketch of
her life, with much interest.
1 can hardly express in these few
lines all the emotions that have
| crowded my mind the last few days
as recalled the years of my associa-
ton with her, and the innumerable
kindnesses which SO endeared her to
ali of ny family who sojourned in
Ocala. And as I looked over the
list of pallbearers everyone but Judge
McConathy represented the old days,
and each name brought many memo
ries and pleasant recollectjons.
When the day of final reckoning
| comes to us all, very few of my friends
| will have more witnesses to rise up
! and call her blessed than dear old
Aunt Sarah Harris.
We are all well and happy.
Yours, sincerely,

Death.

Death is unique. 1t is unlike all
else in its certainty and it's incidents.
A corpse i'll some respects is the
strangest thing on earth. a man who
but yesterday breathed and thought
and walked among US has passed
away. Something has gone. The
body is left still and cold, and is all
that is left visible to mortal eye of
the man we knew. Around it clings
love and memory. Beyond it may
reach hope. And the law-that rule
of action which touches all human
things-must touch also this thing of
death.-Extract from Justice Lump

Change Of Route.

The Times-UniOn says there is
rumOr current to the effect that in d
few weeks the Atlantic Coast Line
will make an important change in the
manner of running trains between
Jacksonville and ST. Petersburg
1t is said that the next schedule
which is to be placed into effect is to
run trains by way of Alachua over
the Jacksonville & Southwestern di-
vision, thence to Gainesville OcaIa
and over the same route from there
which is being used for the trains at
present. This will give Alachua and
Gainesville through train service
over the Atlantic Coast Line between
st. Petersburg and Jacksonville,
something which Gainesville has not
got at the present time. While this
rumor has not been verified, it is: said
that there is little doubt of the new
arrangement being placed into effect.
