Problem Tor the Women

The attitude toward this short
weight system is about evenly divided
among the patrons of the different
stores. .a
1t is an undeniable fact that where
goods are kept in air-tght packages
there is more cleanliness than in goods
sold in the bulk. Grocers say they find
it is to the commercial advantage, to
sell the package goods because there
is a saving OF material as well as
cleanliness.
Necessities sold in the bulk naturally
become mixed with foreign matter
sooner or later, say the grocers.
Goods sold in the package form are
easier handled by both the retailer and
the user. There is no chance for for
eign material to get mixed with the
material until opened. .,..f
But, say the grocers, be careful of
package salt-salt said to be OF the
kind that won't cake. The latter is
often found to be powdered marble.
Genuine salt will always cake II eX-

Stockholders Meeting.

the hour of ten o'clock in the fore

of considering and acting upon two
proposed amendments to the certifi-
cate of Incorporation of said Com

tai stock to $4,000, making 100000

shares ($50.00 each) the same as be-
fore. Second: To provide that the
Preferred Stock shall receive divi-
dends amounting to z per cent per
year on it's par value before any divi-
dend is paid on Common Stock, and
that all profits over said per cent
shall be paid to the holders of Com

year being paid on Preferred Stock
cumulatively before dividends are
paid to Common Stock; but dividends
on Preferred Stock entirely limited to
said per cent By order of the

The Record is arranging for summer va
cation trips for two of Canon's popular
boys. Any boy FL years old or younger is
eligible, and the two who are chosen will
have the time of their lives.
Nothing educates the youth like travel,
but few can enjoy the luxury until they are
well along in years.
Here is chance for two boys of school
age, seldom given to adults.
One trip will be to the Pacific Coast It
will take the lucky boy out through the
Rocky Mountains with stop-over at Lead
vile, Glenwood Springs and Grand juno
ton, if he wants. But the chances are he
won't stop until he reaches the Mormon
capital-Salt Lake City.
He will surely want to stop here and take
a bath in the Salt Lake, the lake so full of
salt that one couldn't sink if he tries. Salt
Lake City has much of interest and will
keep boy busy two or three days.
Then he will go on to Los Angeles,
where he may stay as long as he wishes.
The summer time is the right time to see
California. for in the summer time every
thing is green and in bloom and the sea-
bathing is at its best.
The other trip will be to Chicago or St.
Louis, with a stop-over anywhere this side
that the young man may want.
These trips will be given to the two most
popular boys in the county, which naturally
means in or near Canon City.

Death Of Mrs. Beard.

Mrs. William Beard died at the resi-
denee of her daughter, Mrs. Waities,
early Tuesday morning, aged 81 years.
Although confined to her bed the past
Ave years, on account of injury to one
Of her hips, and notwithstanding her
advanced age, her mind was as bright
and clear as that Of young person, and
she exhibited keen interest in current
events and never lost consciousness un-
oil few days before her death. She
bore her suffering with the patience
and fOrtitude becoming q true Chris
tian, and the end came peacefully.
Deceased was q native OF the West
Indies, but the greater part Of her long
and useful life had been spent in this
State, at Tallahassee, TO which place
the remains were taken for interment
in the family lot Wednesday morning
Mrs. Beard is survived by two sons,
Messrs. Charles and George Beard, and
three step-drughters. Mesdames Wait
les and Fairbanks, of this city, and
Randolph, of Mississippi,
In early life she connected herself
with the Catholic church, and died in
that faith Father O'Brien conducted

A company to do a wholesale shoe
business in Jacksonville Is now being
organized, with a capital of 5000, 600
r. L. Hutchinson, a successful business
man of high standing of West Florida,
will be president of the new company
with r. v. COvington, Of this city, as
vice-president. Mr.. A. S. McDougald,
who for some time has been manager
of the Covington Company's shoe de-
partment, will go with the new COM
pany in the same capacity.
More than one-haf of the necessary
capital has already been subscribed, and
the balance will be offered in small
blocks to desirable stockholders.
Mr.. Covington, when interviewed,
stated that the combined shoe and dry
goods business Of the Covington Com
pany has grown to such proportions
that he finds it difficult to take proper
care Of both departments, and wishing
to be relieved in measure of 50 much
responsibility, and recognizing the need
of a strictly independent and exclusive
shoe house in Jacksonville, has decided
to sell out their shoe department to the
new company.
He states further that their sales in
the shoe department alone are esti-
InaCeu az OStNSSH pOVV,VVV aItu %HvV'VUO
for this year, and this, combined with
their enormous dry goods business, is
too great a burden on him. He wishes
to direct all his attention TO the dry
goods business, and feels that it is suf-
ficient to require his entire attention
The name of the new company will be
Hutchinson She Company and they
will be ready for business next winter.
The new company will begin business
under the most favorable conditions,
with an established business which
guarantees its success from the start.

The Press end the Governor.

The Record heartily comedies in the
remark of the Gainesville Sun that 1.-The
people of Florida will never be led TO
believe that Governor 2roward is other
than a straightforward, honest, square,
courageous man, and there is no good
reason why the press of Florida should
not agree with practical unanimity. He
is all that the Sun so generously claims
for him, personally, and we know Of no
public expression 10 the contrary. But
Governor Broward, as q public official
and as a politician, has allowed himself
70 be advised and controlled, 70 the
great injury and discredit of the party,
and much against his usefulness as an
official, by one Of the worst and most
mischievOus elements in the party, and
he has not seemed TO possess the power
Ct discovering the sinister motives Of
thOse who are using him or the moral
courage TO break away from their bane-
full influence. Sc. Augustine Record.
