Preferable
to Renting One

Authorities on domestic economy
generally agree that family ought
not to spend more than one-fifth of its
total income for rent. 1t is. of course.
impossible to lay down any hard-and-
fast rule which will apply equally to
families OF varying sizes and condi-
tons: but every family about to rent
a house will do well to set for itself
some such limit, based upon the in
come and the other dmands upon it.
Renting is at best an unsatisfactory
way to live. Those who rent usually
have to put up with many inconveni-
ences. and are rarely fortunate enough
to have an abiding-place exactly suited
TO their needs. A rented house can
never adequately express the individu-
atty OF those who live in it. More
over. there is little satisfaction in pay
ing rent month after month, when by
making the payments a little larger
your own. People will sometimes tell
you that interest, insurance, taxes and
repairs on a house would amount to as
much as rent: but if this held true for
dwellings OF equal value it is difficult
TO see how landlords would make their
profit.
Many years ago a man who had just
moved with his family to certain
city estimated that 1T was cheaper TO
rent a house than to buy one. he
accordingly rented a house, In which
he remained as tenant for about
twenty-five years. At the end OF that
time a simple calculation showed him
that he had paid in rent about three
and a half times the value of the house
and lot at the. beginning of his ten
ancy. This convinced him that there
was a fallacy in his original estimate,
and he finally bought a home. paying
by the square foot for land which ne
could have had in the first place at
farm prices.
In calculating that 1t was cheaper
to rent than to buy a home this man
had disregarded two important consid-
erations: first, the increase in the
value of land in any growing city, and
second, the incentive and aid to saving
afforded by the process of buying
home in monthly or quarterly install
ments.
For some families, however, renting
is a necessary evil. 1t often happens
that a man working on a salary can
better his condition in life only oy
moving to another city. and If he
owned his home he might be obliged
TO sell at a sacrifice. Again, some
business men consider it necessary or
profitable to put all their available cap
ital into their business, the profits OF
which are greater than the saving from
house-owning. But as a general rule,
where family is reasonably sure of
remaining in one city, the purchase
of a. home is about the most profitable
safe investment available.

Next Weeks Event.

The event that will have greatest
interest to the ladies of this city and
county for next week will be the an
nual fall and winter opening of Miss
Kate L. Lucas millinery establish
ment, Indeed these annual affairs
are of such general interest that the
men, especially business men, have
come to look upon them with much
favor. They are always attractive,
and this falls opening, which occurs
next week Thursday and Friday,
will be no exception. The store will
be magnificent in cOlors and the dis
play will be second to no other affair
of the kind in the state.
Miss Lucas states that there has
been radical change in the shapes
and styles of ladies hats this season
and this will make for added inter-
est in the opening occasion.

THEIR FUTURE PLANS.
Palatka Liquor Dealers VIII
Not all Leave the City,

BY action of voters last Monday
the sale of liquor In this city is now
placed under ban. This will necessi-
tate re-adjustment of business on
the part of the men formerly engag-
ed in selling liquor.
Palatka was fortunate in its LIQUOR
selling days in that several of the
men thus engaged have always rank
ed highly as citizens, and the News
knows that it speaks the popular
mind when it says that the people of
Palatka are wishing for them flu
ture career of business prosperity
There are few more popular men in
Palatka than Thos. NJ. Ray and his
son James. They give in gracefully
to the new order, just as it was eX-
pected they would do. And it will
be cause for rejoicing among Palat-
kans to know that they intend to re-
main in this city. Their plans are
not yet fully matured, but it is under
stood that they contemplate opening
the old stand at an early date as a
high-class ice cream and CONNECTIONS
parlor, in which event we know it
will delight Palatkans to give them
their full measure of patronage. II.
NJ. Ray owns the block he has Occu-
pied for so many years, and it is one
of the best buildings in the down
town district, ideally located for the
trade contemplated.
j. ID. Bingham is a Palatka reared
young man who numbers his friends
as he does his acquaintance. 1t is
said he is contemplating removal to
the far west. No mans departure
would cause more general regret.
Mr.. Bingham never liked the bar
business, though raised to it. In the
years he has been engaged in it he
has conducted himself always as the
good citizen he is, cieHu and manly.
Louis Bohlen, manager for Raabe
u Co., it is said will probably go to
Jacksonville. Mr., Bohlen is a mem
Der of several orders here, has always
taken an active interest in the affairs
Of the city and is popular with all
who have come to know him. His
departure will be regretted.
I. II. Heating has already begun
to move his stock to Ocala, where it
will be disposed of by r. l.. Heating

lished a bar business in St Angus

w. NJ. Gallagher, his sons, w. R
and f. b. Gallagher, and Myers Por-
ter of Duluth, Mimi, are here fol

w. R. Gallagher. The Messrs. Gal.
higher and Porter are timber esti.
majors and are here for the season tC
| investigate timber lands for the viii
son Cypress company. Mrs. w. NJ
Gallagher, who is popular in Palatka
society, will also arrive here in n few
weeks.
The home of Ed. Washington, a
| worthy colored man, on north 9TH
street, was totally destroyed by fire
at an early hour Monday morning.
The department was prompt in get
ting to the scene, but the fire had
gained too great a Roadway to be put
out, although very effective work
was done in saving adjoining prop
erty. Washington is an employee of
the Selden Cypress Door company
hard working and honest, and much
sympathy is expressed for him.
The addresses of Rev. J. b. Mitch
ell of Orlando, last Friday and those
of Rev. w. J. Carpenter of Tampa on
Saturday and Sunday nights on the
court house lawn were listened to by
vast concourse of people. The ad-
dresses of Mr.. Carpenter are gener-
ally acknowledged to have been the
most powerfully convincing argu-
ments for prohibition delivered dur
making addresses from start to finish
with every sentence II telling one.
This has been a busy week at Miss
Buky's store in the Dalton block, for
the new fall and winter goods have
commenced to arrive and are being
unpacked and placed in position.
And we might say, the stock is a
beauty, embracing all the latest,
newest and most up-tO-date fabrics
to be found in the market. Miss
Bulky has exercised particular care in
the selection of her goods, and the
ladies will make no mistake in call
ing at her store if they wish to keep
abreast of the prevailing modes in
fashion.
The leaders of the dry campaign
and a large assemblage of citizens
met at the court house Tuesday
night in a sort of ratification meet
ing and joyfest over Mondays anti
saloon victory. Short congratula-
tory remarks were made by Revs.
Bell and Lynn, and Messrs Hilburn,
Merryday, Haskell and Tilghman.
Everyone felt good and looked graft
fed at the success of the campaign.
A law and order committee was APP
pointed to consist of w. G. Thigh
man, T. B. Merrill, J. HI. Yelverton,
H. NJ. de Montmollin, S. J. Hilburn,
D. a. Mullis, j. H. Merryday, E. T.
Lancaster, and John Vincent. The
idea of the committee is to encour-
age officials in the enforcement of
law.

FOR A CLEAN CITY.
Chief Hasan Orders Baudy

mates to Move.

1t was rumored on the street We'd
nesday morning that Chief of Police
Hagan was serving notice to keep
ers of disorderly houses and their
inmates that they must move out OF
| town. Chief Hagan was seen later
in the day by the News and when
questioned concerning the report,
said:
Yes, it is true The people OF
Putnam county, including the city
of Paiatka, said in no uncertain way
last Monday that the saloon must go.
1t has gone. 1t is thing of the past
The baudy house was always illegal,
but it has seemed almost impossible
to control them, | am Interpreting
the vote of last Monday as vote in
favor of u clean city. Several of the
ministers and others of the anti
saloon committee have talked to me
and they think this other thing
should go too. 1t is going, or my
name amt Pete Hagan. Today /
have served notice on no less than
70 women, proprietresses and inmates
of theses houses, that they must go.
Many of them are even now packing
up. [ shall enforce the law against
them to the letter. The people have
spoken for clean city and they are
going to have it.
by the way, | wish you would
also, for me, and in my name, state
that no man need think he is going
to operate a "blind tiger" in this
city, and if any have had this idea,
they had better abandon it before it
strikes in on 'em. I shall keep my
eyes open for "blind tigers" all the
time, and if one is caught, r know
our municipal judge well enough to
say that he will give them all that's
coming to them in the way of peAs
atty.
THE police department is going to
do its full duty in the matter of max
ing and keeping this city clean. l
want this fact thoroughly understood
