Welsh and many others. Ten years
ago there were but few boxes Of
citrus fruits grown in the south end
of the county; this season grapefruit
have been shipped North in carload
lots. The American Nut and Fruit
Company are planting a hundred-acre
grove of grapefruit at Orange Glade,
while there are numerous small tracts
being planted and many acres being
cleared for planting. All of this is
the result of ten years work, and
it means much for the southern sec
ton of the county. The old theory
that this class of fruit cannot be sue
cessfully grown on the rocky lands
of south Dade has been exploded, and
now it is an acknowledged fact that
the rocky lands produce the best pos
sible quality Of fruit that can be
grown, and in quantities unknown in
many portions of the old citrus belt.
The trees are marve1ously healthful,
come into bearing at early age, and
have no off season.
Farther north in Dade County there
are many fine groves-in fact there
are none better. At Biscayne the
Gordans have place that is well
worth looking at. West from Bis
cayne there are numerous fine groves,
and many Of them are now in bearing,
while others are commencing to hold
fruit At Fulford, Ojus, Hallandale
DANA and Fort Lauderdale the same
conditions exist In all of these
places there are groves in all stages
of growth, from trees just set to those
in full bearing. Pompano, Deerfeld
Boca Ratone, Delray, Boynton, Lam
tana and Hypoluxo come in for their
full share of glory along the line Of
citrus culture. In the vicinity of Lake
Worth, along it's shores, are some
magnificent fruit groves. Among
these are those of Mr.. C. J. Mathams
Judge A. E. Heyser and others. Their
trees are in splendid condition, and
are holding quantities of fine fruit
New groves are being planted, and
sooner Or later the shores of Lake
Worth will be lined with beautiful
homes and thrifty citrus groves. Al
DR.. Hood and others have done much
to demonstrate the adaptability of the
soil and climate for growing citrus
fruits. Their groves are located in
the country, some distance from Jupi.
ter, and are never seen by the tourist
or home-hunters, without specia
trip. These groves are we'll worth
travelling long distance to see. The
fruit is of an exceptionally fine quail
ity, the trees are liberal bearers, the
fruit is thin skinned and of fine color
and texture. There are also smaller
groves in the Jupiter section and each
wear there is marked advance IL

All these recognized and standard
authorities praise in the strongest pos
sible terms, each and every ingredient
which enters into the e Favorite Prescrip-
ton" of DR.. Pierce for the cure of wom-
ans peculiar weaknesses and ailments.
In fact the "Favorite Prescription -
stands alone as being the only medi-
cine for wOman's special ailments
which has any such professional en-.
dorsement which fact is generally re-
cognized as entitled to much more
weight than any amount of lay, or nom

The vFavorite Prescription" stands
alone as the only non-secret, medicine
for woman's ailments, the manufacture
ers of which are not afraid to publish
their formula broadcast counting

The "Favorite Prescription has
been ON trial in court and came out

All the railroad branches are pro-

rooms, gymnasiums, and even
lodgingroOms, says Parsons.
That the men gladly avail them
selves of these accommodations is
attested by the membership of
over 10000. A great work is done
by the ColOred Y. M. @. A. branch

cERNE GIANT DISAPPEARING
Interesting Survival of Prehistoric
England Rapidly Descending
Into Native Oblivion.

An interesting survival of pre-
historic England is threatened
with destruction owing to neglect.
This is the "Cerne Giant" a colos.
sal human figure cut on the side
of lofty hill that overlooks the
picturesque village of Cerne Alb
bas, eight miles north of Dor
chester.
1t is several years since the fur
rows which outline the giants fig
ure we're secured and refined with
chalk. Gradually the latter has
been washed away by the winters
rains and it is now barely Wis
ible. Grass has so encrOached on
the channels that, seen from a dis
lance, the details of the gigantic
figure are hard to trace, though
the uncouth human form is still
recognizable. The cost of reno.
waiting the giant is estimated at
about El2, but no one in the local
ity knows where the money is to
come from.
The "Old Man." as he is styled
by the natives of Cerne Abbas 1.-THE
"Abbot's Cernel' of Hardy's Yves
sex novels), is built on truly heroic
lines. He stands $50 feet high and

Pass keys to rooms are not the
only kind used in hotels. Porters
are also provided with keys that
will open any trunk lock.
This is necessary in order to
keep the guests from accumulat.

"Only last week the housekeep-
er called the attention of the pro-
prietor to the great demand for
linen that came from a certain
woman guest. She had been in
the hotel nearly a year, occupying
suite with a sitting-room and
spending plenty of money on food
and livery.
''rhe suspicion that she might
be taking the sheets, towels and
pillow cases that we're disappear
ing so rapidly seemed improbable
in the highest degree. Suddenly
she notified the Office that she was
going to leave.
"Well, opened her trunks with
my skeleton key. They were all
going TO her sisters house down
on the Jersey coast. That turned
out to be a boarding house which
the woman had just opened.
''ln the trunks was all the miss
ing linen. The name of the house
had been carefully removed from
all of it, but there was no uncer-
tainty about the Identification.

and sent the trunks along. OF
course, we never heard of the
woman again. She was rich
enough to buy all the linen she
wanted"

Birds Carry Young.

The woodcock has been known
to carry away her young when
threatened with danger. She
places them on her spread feet,
pressing them between the toes
and the breast. A naturalist says
many wOOdeOcks also carry their
Young down to marshy feeding
grounds in the evening, returning
before dawn. In fact, they have
no means of feeding their young
except by carrying them to their
food, for they cannot convey their
food to them. The nests are usu.
ally in dry, heathery woods, and
the young birds require plenty OF
moisture.

The Kenai Peninsula.

With all its other features of
