" nat Constitutes Success?

a Boston firm offered prize Of $3.50
for the best answer to the above ques-
ton, and Mrs. ]. \. Stanley, of Kan
sas, secured the prize by the follow
ing answer:
He has achieved success who has
lived well, laughed often and loved
much; who has gained the respect Of
intelligent men and the love of little
children; who has filled his niche and
accomplished his task; who has left
the world better than he found it;
whether by an improved poppy, a per-
feet poem or rescued soul; who has
never lacked appreciation of earths
beauty or failed to express it: who
has always looked for the best in 9TH
ers and given the best he had; whose
life was an inspiration. whose me

Florida Mahogany.

Few people know that this section
Of Florida produces excellent quail
ties of hard woods suitable for finish
ing and for furniture.
The favorite is the madeira, or Flor
ida mahogany, fine grained, beauti-
fully colored wood that takes on a
high polish and is an ideal material
for the finest Of decorative interiors
Contrary to the usual opinion. the
madeira comes from the forests in
large logs. from some Of which it is
possible to obtain boards IS inches in
width
From this lumber veneers are made
that are the equals Of the finest South
American mahogany.
The supply of this wood is said to
be very large in the regiou and south
and west of this city and in the vicin-
ity of Cape Sable. 1t is sawed at
mills located near the supply and is
brought to this city in large planks
which are afterwards sawed into ven
GERS for moulding and inside finish
ing.
An expert, who has hauled this lum-
Der for years states that it could
be used to advantage in the manufac-
ture of furniture.-NIiami Record.

MAKING SPECIFIC CHARGES.

For some time past the Tallahassee
True Democrat has been making
charges of a general nature against
the administration of Ex-Governor
Jennings.
The True Democrats editorials have
been vigorous, we'll written and enter
tanning, but some of the state papers
have demanded that it make it's
charges specific.
This, the True Democrat has pro-
ceeded to do. One of its items is a
charge by the state printer of SO
for a piece of work. which the True
Democrat says the state printer agreed
to do for 81.
The next charge is graver. We re-
produce itNbere:
1--WE here and now, as we here
tofore have done, specifically charge
that the Jennings administration I'M
lawfully paid out of the state treas
ury $500, called legal fees, to Judge B.
S. Liddon, who was employed, to pros
ecute as special counsel" the case of
the state against Walter L. Taylor"
Is that plainly enough stated?
This matter can be explained
Mr.. George w. Walker was state at
torney at the time and he and Hon.
William B. Lamar, against whom Mr..
speaking terms and the Key West Inter
Ocean and some other newspapers
printed editorials stating that, owing
to the intense feeling existing between
these two gentlemen, it would not be
in good taste for Mr.. Walker to pros
ecute the case.
Mr.. Walker submitted these editor
ials in a written communication to the
governor and asked that some one else.
without bias or prejudice, be appoint
ed to prosecute the case. Governor
Jennings agreed with Mr.. Walker that
the best interests of the state would
perhaps be served by his retiring from
the case, and appointed Mr.. Liddon as
special counsel
We believe that the people of Flor
ida justify the action of Governor
Jennings in this mater
The proceedings were all made pub
lie and there was no concealment and
certainly no corruption attached to it.
Judge Liddon represented the state
and ably and was certain
ly entitled To his pay.
We believe in holding our public Of
ficials to a scrict accountably of their
acts, but, do not believe in condemn
ing them therefor unless condemna-
ton is justifiable, which does not
seem to be the case in the matter UNI
der review.

Mr.. Harper's Piano Sale.

Mr.. a. r. Harper and his assistants
who have been i'm the city for the
past five days displaying their splen-
did line OF Ludden & Bates pianos at
the armory informed a representative
of the Ocala Banner that their sales
during that time have not been what
they might have been. but that they
have sold six instruments and prac-
tically sold several more. Mr.. Har-
per is a firm believer in the virtues
of printers ink and has not spared
its use in his business campaign OF
the past few days in our city. He says
his Baby Grand Chickering is the
best instrument that ever left fac
tory and he is making sales on it

CANDIDATE FOR HALL OF FAME.

In a recent interview which appear
ed in the Tampa Tribune, Mr.. James
Hai vey Phillips, gave the following
account of the way the name of the
late Hon. David l.. Yulee. former
United States Senator for Florida
came to be changed.
David Yulee was one of the most
interesting men Florida ever had
within its borders, and / have often
thought that If this state were to
place in the hall of the capitol build
ing in Washington, selected to con-
tain the statutes OF two men from
very state in the union who deserv-
ed this recognition, David Yulee's
statue to fill one of the vacant places
reserved for this state, it would only
be doing justince to his memory.
BE this as it may. Yulee was
prominent citizen, shrewd and capa-
BILE. He construetedthe railroad from
Fernandina to Cedar Keys and was a
pioneer developer in Florida.
HE proposed to the young lady,
his name being Levy at this time.
"She, without hesitating, assured
him she could not marry any man
with a name something like Levy-he
Immediately informed her this was a
small obstacle and straightway went
to the Florida legislature having his
name changed to Yulee.
HE proposed again. She told him
she would not marry a man not
United States Senator.
"He went to Tallahassee and the
legislature sent him to the United
States Senate.
II consider this one of the finest
acts in the life of the man who served
his state we'll, and who deserves a
statue in the hall of fame
The lady in the case belonged to
very prominent Kentucky family,
and their children, two brilliant and
charming daughters and a son, were
long known as ornaments of Florida
society, removing later to Washing
ton, where they were prominent fac
tors in the social life of the capitol
The son C. Wickliffe Yulee, has re-

Flirting at Church.

Editor Russell, of the Palatka News,
in his best sentimental vein. throws
the following sweet morsel to the
young people:
Some time ago the Methodist minis
ters' meeting in Chicago discussed the
subject of flirting in church. At the
time we clipped the newspaper ac-
count of the meeting. being impressed
with the remarks of Rev. NJ. B. Will
liams. one Of the pastors, who was
quoted as follows:
There is no reason why young per-
sons should not cultivate each others
acquaintance from behind hymn books
We are glad to have them come to
church on any pretext. Flirting is as
good an excuse as any. That is how
first became interested in the church.
The expectation of seeing a young
woman home has brought many a boy
to church for the first time. Amid the
love-making there is a chance for the
religious to steal in
Dr. Williams is right. The kind of
Irritation that goes on at church is
Just taking notice" and is harmless.
Many of us who are married found
our sweathearts and wives at church.
Under what better surroundings could
future wife or husband be found?
You knew just where she sat-the
very spot in the pew. How your Grant
eyes wandered in that direction! And
when her eyes sometimes timidly
sought yours-you didn't need TO hear
the preacher talk of heaven. You were
there already And with a courage
that erstwhile takes men to the can
mons mouth. when the evening ser
vices were concluded, you asked for
the first time if you might see her
home And when you got further
along what messages you wrote in the
hymn books as you sat by her side!
If the ministers could confine all
the flirting TO the church it would be
a good thing for the young people who
1t is better practiced there,
and with less danger, than anywhere
else.

THE cENuINENEss OF MANKIND.

How oft have we heard the beautiful
lesson, ore and ore again, but who
hath named it?
Man once stood at the gateway" of
our country and bravely defended 1t
| for the right and common good of
the greatest number. Regardless of
self agrandizment, of personal pleas
ures as private interests, he laid his
life against the intrusian- of anything
that affected the common interest of
moral, political, social, financial and
educational, advancement. He res
pected the rights of his fellow coun-
trymen equal with his own, and de-
Tended them in the same loyal man
ner.
Man once loved his neighbor and
his neighbours family. The links that
builded the strange chain around the
community or ''neighborhood" were
nodded from the genuineness of man
kind
Man himself was genuine. He was
creative. His purposes were of pure
motive and toward a successful end
ing. He looked beyond the mere sphere
of his own earthly life. He purposed
who lived after him. Woman had
more beautiful accomplishments from
a genuine christian standpoint. Her
life was closed to things pure and di-
vine; further away from the world
she lived less for the world and more
for her family and her home. Children
were happier and contented at home.
Yes. Let US repeat it; that children
were, one time contented at home.
That was before that beautiful song
was written: where is my wander
ing boy tonight" Since then an ocean
of tears have been shed by fond moth
ers whose dear oness were not con-
tented at home. 1t hasn't been so
long ago, either.
How beautiful is the genuineness of
mankind. And how rare the gem. How
sad the story: Brothers quarrel over
a paultry sum-" Another, still sad
der, Brothers and sisters go to law"
And here comes one almost incred-
liable: Aged parents turned out of
house and home by their own SON"
What has destroyed the genuiness?
The love of money, greed, self-con-
ceit, false pretense in religion, in So
ciety, in business, in every organiza-
ton that tends to hold its self up
above the average standard. Friends
have entered in. They have the pass
word and regalia. How shall we know
them from the genuine?
Practical trust has been belied. Po-
litical. ASPIRATIONS once reached be-
yond the holding of office reached to
a future reputation honored and res
pected. Today it dies within the count
ing of the ballots. For illustration:
Young man, your memory is fresh
with Florida history, you. are a con-
slant reader and an apt scholar, now
answer me right quick, surely You can
do 50 without giving you time to
think them once: Name two or
three of Florida's greatest men-men
who have risen to distinction through
some of the best Offices in the gift of
the people? Name them please?
Now, young man, do you see an OPP
portunity awaiting you? Can't you
see a clear-cut right-of- to
brilliant success? But hold on. Don't
start off until you have made the nee
essary preparation.
What's lacking?
Genuineness in all things, false pre-
tense is nothing. Purity of purpose
and let that purpose be to build a
good name beyond the mere time it
takes To live.

The Somerset reporter., 1906-05-31

There la come into modern life a
greater variety Of sound and d greater
volume than assailed the ears Of our
ancestors To keep ones freshness
there ought to he q zone Of silence
around every human being during some
part Of the day. The finest creative
work is done, as a rule, In seclusion
not necessarily apart from men nor In
solitary places. but away from the tu-
mutt and away from distracting
sounds. There was organized il Paris
years ago a society for the culture Of
silence. On the occasion Of the inltia-
ton Of a distinguished man Of letters a
bowl Of water was brought ont TO him
In q room where he was waiting in
solitude. He studied il a moment,
placed a rose upon It and sent II back.
The water bore the rose without over
flowing. TO the members mbled in
another room the act was the most
convincing evidence that the initiate
comprehended the purpose Of the fell
lowship and was prepared in spirit to
become one Of the company. The act
was a symbol which Americans may
wisely study.-Good Health.
