The Many uses to Which Their Aariag
"a Light Fabrics Are Put. 5 III
There. are in all about half e dozen
lace bark trees in the world, SO called
because the inner bark yields natural
lace IN ready made sheet form which
can be made up In serFiceable articles
OF apparel. Only four Of these curious
species OF trees are OF much practical
value. Tourists who have stopped at
Hawaii or Samoa may recall the lace
bark clothing Of the natives othing

markable strength and Of fragrant
odor, like freshly cured tobacco leaf.
I The native tapa cloth. as 1t Is called, is
made from the bark OF the brHsonetfa
papirifera, but 1t Is not usually inciud.
ed among the real lace bark trees. &.
IN Its natural state the "a i lace bark
is Of d delicate cream white tint. 1t Is
probably a kind of ibrogs pith. When
b the outer bark Is reaaoyed 1t can be
unfolded and unwound In one seamless
piece, having IN ,.,irfaee OF a little

and sun bleaching give 1t a dazzling
white appearance The fabric Is airily

mantillas. eraFats, collars, cuffs, win

A. p. Jordan Thanks the People.
A remarkable feature of the late
primary campaign in this county
is the fact that not one unkind
word has been spoken or printed
about the division candidate for
the legislature. On the contrary,
he has been treated with the
greatest kindness and respect
everywhere in the county and his
two opponents in particular have
shown him the most pleasing
courtesy. He represented an issue
that stirred the people as never
before and brought out the biggest
vote ever polled III the county.
During the campaign, he made
twelve speeches in ten different
places, some of which were almost
solidly against him, and in every
instance he was given the most re-
spectful attention and treated by
every one as a friend and gentle
man.
Is it any wonder, then, that he
thinks the people of DeSoto county
are the best in the world and that
he is proud of the fact that he lives
amongst them?
This is written to extend to
them his heartfelt gratitude for
their consideration and great kind
ness. Words are inadequate to
give fitting expression to his deep
feeling of thankfulness. He can
only say with all the fervor Of his
heart, God bless the people OF
DeSoto county,

A Pair of CoddIerS.

A man with a curious fondness for
skullcaps was the Able de st. Martin,
who In the seventeenth century, made
himself ridiculous by his vagaries. He
always wore nine o. these articles to
keep off the cold and, furthermore, nine
pairs Of stockings. His mode of pass
Ing the night was more remarkable
still. He caused to be constructed for
himself bed Of ricks, beneath which
was a furnace, so arranged that he
could regulate 1t to the degree Of
warmth he might require, and his bed
was fitted with only a very small open
ing. through which the able used to
creep when he retired to rest at night.
Even more Iudlcrous was the con-
trivance which the great French mathe-
matlclan, Fourier designed and used
for the protection Of his health He in
cased himself In a species Of box, the
interior Of which. by some mechanical
means. was kept at the only tempera-
ture at which he felt he could live with
out Inconvenience. While enveloped in
this clumsy affair he was necessarily
confined to one spot, but he provided
means for the freedom of his head and
hands. Even the Ills OF asthma and
rheumatism, one would have thought,
were preferable to existence under such
circumstances as this, but the French

1t looks like our Division friends
were not the statesmen they pre-
tend, or they would have figured
it out long ago that the reason
why Manatee county in We olden
time" had such a low tax rate.
It is as plain as the nose on your
face. It was because it was a big
county When it was divided
into two counties, DeSoto and
Manatee, both the smaller counties
greatly increased their burdens and
their taxation. 1t invariably
works so.

They. may write and talk all
they want, but Governor Broward
is sincere in the belief that he is
right in the Everglade drainage
plan, and if the chief executive is
correct in his quotations. he has
the law on his side. This being
true, the opposition to the recla-
nation of this land by the State
should condemn the law, and not
the Gooernor, who, upon taking
Office, obligated himself to its sup
port and execution. A man
should not be blamed, condemned
and prosecuted for doing that
