Moving on the InstaIlment Plan.

An expressman who called at
Ninety-second street boarding house
for two trunks was asked by the land
lady where they were going.
II don't know" he said. You see, I
do only half the hauling. 1 will take
the things to our Office and somebody
else will take them the rest Of the way.
The boss at the desk will know the ad-
dress. The moving is done on the In
stallment plan to keep you folks here
from finding out where the other pe0-
pie went. They were afraid to trust
me with the number for fear you might
worm 1t out Of me, so they told 1t to
nobody but the manager. Lots Of peo
pie who move often make the trip In
sections like that. Half the time when
1 take trunk away from a boarding
house don't know where It will wind
up. That is generally done when there
has been q row and the folks who leave
don't want to be followed. Been lit

BARONESS LED
F0RGERs BAND
Scheme to Forge Railway
Shares Failed and Ar
rests Followed.

Paris, Dec. Sit Is not often that
a baroness appears in court on the
charge of hiring a sumptuous villa
and directing a band of forgers to
produce false banknotes and clever
limitations OF railway shares quoted
on the Paris Bourse. Yet it happens
that parsonage of precisely this
type has appeared in court during the
past few days accompanied by her
staff" of cO-adjutOrs of whom five
were present during the trial. All of
them have made previous acquaintance
with various courts and goals in differ
ent countries.
In 1877 the Paris, Lyons and Medi-
terranean Railway had commissioned
Paris printer to print a series of
new three per cent shares but as the
printing was not satisfactory the
company refused to accept them.
They were finally sold as waste paper
and the bundles eventually fell into
the hands of Victor Lankmann, a Bel
gian, who was sentenced for forgery
to six years Imprisonment and ex-
PEELED from France ten years ago.
Last year it is alleged the Baroness
being short of funds contrived plot
with Lankmann for fabricating $780,
600 worth OF the above mentioned
shares and disposing of them among
purchasers of pawn tickets. They
hired villa at Bots Colonies where
they fabricated the goods in absolute
security. The fact is, to set the police
off the track, they told the authorities
of sham burglary so that police
man actually paced up and down be-
fore the villa for a week little suspect
ing that he was affording protection
for a band of forgers within.
The plot came to grief when they
attempted to dispose of their wares.
A purchaser of pawn tickets to whom
they offered several hundred shares
became suspicious and showed them
to the company. The fraud was at
once discovered and the entire band
was speedily captured.

Where Cicero Took the Mud.

Marcus Tullius Cicero bathed in the
mud of Lake Aguan 1000 years ago
in order to get lid Of the govt. The
mud of the standing waters in the dis
trict west of Naples was famous from
early times for the relief Of arthritis.
The luxurious high livers Of the i'm
perial days knew its efficacy and no
doubt did their "cure" there in muck
the same rough and ready fashion az
their modern representative does now.
1t is no doubt to the sulphur and
other deposits that the mud of the lit
tie lakes on the promontory of Cumae
owes its health giving properties, and
as nature works much the same way
now in that region as she did in the
time Of the Caesars the effect upon
twentieth century govt is probably
much the same as when the great TUT
" soaked his infiamed joints In the
ooze of the Phlegraeaen fields.

AS a fruit, vegetable, nut and ag-
ricultural growing state Florida has
no equal. Here may be grown all the
fruits and vegetables that are indigo
nous to a tropical climate and the more
hardy sorts of the north. Three and
four crops per year can be grown on
the same acre, and the farmer does
not have to idle away half of his time
trying to keep warm during the win
ter months, but can cultivate his
crops every month in the year, and
if he manages his farm intelligently
he will have something to sell every
three months, while his northern
brother sows once a year, markets
once a year and is broke ten months
in the year.
The average soil of Florida is
sandy, mixed with clay and other or
ganic matter, but by the proper use
of fertilizer it becomes very produc-
tive.
Recently large bodies of peat have
been discovered in the state, and there
is little doubt but that this discovery
will add largely to the states rev.

ture of mattings, rope and straw

Germs along line in which there is
no competition and splendid profits.
Climate Is HeaIthfuI. u
The death rate Of Florida is less
than that of Maine, Massachusetts,
New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Vir-
ginia and Minnesota. The variation
of temperature is small here as COM
pared with the northern states, and
this in part accounts for the good
health of the populace. The annual
mean temperature is 20 degrees;
spring, II degrees; summer, so de-
grees. autumn, II degrees, and win
ter, so degrees. The winters will fill
the heart of anyone with joy. This is
evidenced each year by the thousands
! of wealthy northerners who make the
state their Mecca.
| 1t would be impossible for anyone
to enCmerate all the good points Of
Florida, and it would pauperize the
English language to do so. The
stranger is filled with wonder and adj

the state until he has to take his de

green foliage during the winter is

Pointer for Stock Growers.
The possibilities of the state from
a stock growing point of view cannot
be eQualed. The water is here, the
grazing land is here and the winters
are very similar to the summers in
the north. The experienced stock
grower should be able to appreciate
these three points, but he does not
seem to take advantage of them, prob
ably on account of his narrow-minded
prejudice. When he does come to
himself the state of Florida will re-

MAGIC AND RELIGION.
Their Parting Due to the Advance of

In west Africa the belief in a new

In nearly all stages of civilization
now to be found in the world what we
call supernatural beings were concern
ed with the initiation Of the magician.
The schism between magic and reli-
gion was a later development Of civ
ilization. When it occurred, as the
history of heresy in Europe and the
witch trials teach, it was rather magic
In its antisocial aspect than in itself,
which was reprobated and punished.
1t is strange in this connection to no
tlce that the magician was only con-
demned when he departed from estab-

which involved a severance from the
community and an imputation of anti
social ends. Practices essentially mag
