You hear those who are soiourning
In the city making complimentary re-
marks about the fine appearance Of
Gainesville this spring, and although
there is more or less rubbish where
new buildings are going up and street
improvements are being made, the
shade Of the wide.spreading oaks and
The various ornamental trees that are
now putting on their spring attire,
make the city have the appearance Of
a beautiful park and cannot help but
catch the eye Of the casual observer.
The residences are also very attrac.
tive, nearly all Of them being kept IN
GOOD repair and Frightened up with
paint, giving the whole city an air Of
prosperity that you will seldom find 30
universal.
But there is always room for inn
proyement, and there are many spots
that will be identified, streets built
and new sidewalks added, all combin-
ing to make Gainesville one o. the
healthiest and pleasantest cities Of the
South
Every year Gainesville will grow
better, and we will never tire Of sing
ing her praises, no more than good
Methodist would OF singing Praise

Authority for Issuing Liquor
Licenses is With City

elusive power to grant liquor IL
censes. The provisions of the char
ter of Parkersburg expressly pro-
vides that the city shall have such
power, and until a court OF APP
peals or some court having prop
er jurisdiction holds otherwise, |
take it you should recognize that
power in the city.
1t is very questionable, [ have
always thought, whether or not
the Legislature had the right to
take away from the County court
and place the exclusive power IN
the city, of granting liquor IL
eenses and am inclined to think
if the question is ever raised and
brought to the court Of appeals
that it will hold that this could
not be done by the Legislature.
However, for the purpose of
your inquiry this question is not
involved and I take it that the
City Council will issue the licenses
as it has heretofore. I will have
the blanks furnished by the first
of April if possible. Yours truly,

FIRST PICTURE BOOK.
The Daring Idea First Conceived b,
Johann Comenius.

The Daring Idea First Conceived b,
Johann Comenius.
Three hundred years ago a German
sayant had wonderful vision At that
time children were taught to read by
force Of arms, so to speak. through
hardships and with bitter toll on the
part Of teacher and of child! 1t seems
curious that the first real step toward
tightening the labor Of children as
they climb the ladder OF learning was
the product Of the imagination not OF
some fond mother or gentlewoman
teacher, but Of bewigSed and beo'
tied university doctor.
1t was Johann Comenius. however,
who first conceived the daring idea
that children could be taught by the
aid of the memory and the magma
ton working together. "by MEANS" as
he quantity expressed 1t, of sensuous
impressions conveyed to the eye. so
that visual objects may be made the
medium Of expressing moral lessons to
the young m.nd and Of impresslng
those lessons upon the memory" In
other words. the good Herr Doctor had
the bright idea that picture books could
be useful to children. Comenius made
his first picture book and called 1t the
..Orbis Pictus" 1t contains rude wood
cuts representing objects in the nat
ural world. as trees and animals. with
little lessons about the pictures. 1t Is
a quaint volume and one that would
cause the average modern child not
little astonishment were it placed be-
fore him
AS truly, however, as that term may
be applied to any other book that has
since been written. the "Orbis Pictus"
was an epoch making book. 1t Is the
precursor Of all children's picture
books. and modern childhood has great
cause to bless the name of Conenius.--

CONDENSED STORIES.
How an Irish Jurors Wit Helped the
Defendant.

John G.. Carlisle tells story OF
his early days when he was counsel
for an insurance company in Ken
lucky, says the New York Herald.
The company had brought an ac
ton against the proprietor OF G
small dry goods store which ha'
been destroyed by fire under rathe
suspicious circumstances.
The proprietor was put on the
stand, and Mr.. Carlisle, in his ca,
pacity as counsel, undertook during
the course OF cross examination TIC
break down the story Of the fire.
All the articles OF the Questioner
were, however, Of no avail, for the
proprietor stuck 10 his tale and
there seemed to be little nope of dis
crediting the testimony offered BY
him.
The defendant was about to leave
the box, when an Itishman, who
had been following the testimony
with i'll concealed Impotence, shout
ed out in stcntorian tones:
so, me man, whin you'd 1t fire
to the store, We ran. away, heh "
At this the unfortunate trades
man became visibly embarrassed,
suffered and spluttered and finally.
under the renewed questioning OF
Mr.. Carlisle, who was not slow tc
follow up the advantage afforded O.!
the Celt's unexpected outburst, th>
proprietor virtually admitted hi
guilt, whereupon his convictio.
speedily ensued.
When the proceedings were Owe
Mr. Carlisle sought out the lrisI
Juror, whom he complim"nted on IL

No Waste Room
In the Body

A muscle or Egament that con-
tracts will get both shorter and
thicker. There is no waste room
in the body-every bit OF space is
exactly filled by some structure
If a muscle or ligament is thick
ened it will encroach upon some
softer structure, like a blood YES
sci, and limit or stop its work; or
if a nerve is pinched, irritation
may develop so as to exaggerate
it's action. If a hose is stepped
upon. water will not flow through
it: if a telegraph wire is ground
ed. it will not transmit message
so with nerves and blood vessels
when they become abnormally
pressed between the bones and
muscles, as at disturbed joints IN
the spine or limbs.
Osteopathy ascertains where
characteristic mechanical troubles
have developed in the body in eV-
cry disease-and the diseases due
10 such causes, in whole or part,
are legion. Practically all dis
eases may be caused by mechanl-
cal disturbance. By removing
these abnormal conditions, Oste-
opathy enables the body to re-
cover from it's diseases. 1t takes
the ground that these known and
yerifable distinctions to natural
bodily processes would better be
removed to coax back health than
drugging the body in such way
rs to hide the effects OF such dan
gerous physical handicaps, which
has been the most popular sort OF
practice in the past. In a word,
Csteopathy removes the cause;
cure naturally follows.

LAKE CITY SOLOMON.

The Punta Gorda Herald, one Of the
ablest papers in Florida, has the iol'
loving regarding the Buckman Dill anu
the new school law:
1.-THE Lake City Citizen-Reporter,
which The Gainesville Sun Gays is try
ing TO lit itself from the depths Of long
and deserved obscuriIy by cutting IAN
tastic tricks before high heaven IN or
der to attract attention, alleges that
The Punta Gorda Herald is Cd tie base
again, which is nothing unusual, ana
it's editor Is 'opinioDated, because The
Herald stated that, il the Buchanan
bill should be declared unconstitution'
al, an extra session Of the Legislature
would be necessary to appropriate
funds for the State colleges.
"ThiS is denied by The Lake City Sol
ONION, who alleges that the general
government pays practically all OF the
running expenses Of the school here at
Lake City, and shat, therefore, no ex'
ira session would be necessary.
"Thus, the very learned Lake City
scribe cannot see anything in the shape
of q college or other high educational
institution outside OF his own town
His eyes may be so blurred with tears
at the loss OF the University that his
vision is impaired.
1.-THE veFIeSt tyro Of an editor should
know that, IL the Buchanan bill is de-
claFed unconstitutional the result
would be to restore the status quo,
whereby several other colleges besides
that at Lake City would be instantly
revived. and the $4,000 appropriated
By the Buchanan bill could not be used
for any purpose whatever. The Board
OF Control would cease to exist and
all their acts would become null and
void, and the State Board Of Education
would be instantly confronted by the
former laws, which require them to Sc
lect faculties and put in operation the
State schools at DeFunisk, Gainesville,
Tallahassee, Barlow and St. Augustine.
How they could do this without funds
may be a feat within the brilliance and
superior ability Of the Lake City pa
per, but it would be beyond the legal
capacity of the State officials.
"As a corollsry to the foregoing, 1t
may be remarked that the want of edi-
torial discretion and diplomacy shown
by one Of its newspapers has strong
tendency to prejudice the people Of
the State against Lake City, already
noted for the quaTrelsome proclivities
manifested by q few Of it's citizens.
