years for the best interests of its
town, county and State, and it is
gratifying to observe that its

the lively and genial Col. Tom
Appleyard, may not be a success
fill maker of presidents, but he

This editor had n pleasant talk
last Friday with the new, able ed
itor Of the Florida Times nion,
during which the latter asserted
with the utmost confidence that
Bryan and Kern would win.
This assertion, coming from one
Of the keenest observers in the
land and made in the most positive
manner, greatly strengthened The
HERALD editors convictions.

The reason some candidates
were defeated in the late primaries
was because they undertook too
much; they tried to win both for
themselves and for other candi-
dates. Editor Bittinger, of the
Ocala Star, supported Broward
and Stockton; so did Editor Rus
sell, of the Brooksville Argus, and
both editors, good men though
they we're and are, went down in
defeat. Each candidate should
"tote his own skillet"

The Apalchicola Times and the
Jacksonville Times Union have
been Boosting for a long time
about the beautiful and bewitch-
ing girls of their respective cities.
Punta Gorda has remained silent
on this subject for the simple
reason that her girls are so very
pretty and captivating that they
get married almost before their
school days are over and before it
is just the proper thing for The
HERALD to rave over their
charms. The Jacksonville and
Apalachicola girls stay single long
enough for the editors to see them
and succumb to their destinations.

Street Manners for Girls.

Girls who wish to become pop.
ular may easily do so by studying
and initiating the manners of
those whom they know to be gen.
orally admired and liked in the
community. A pretty face and a
lovely dress are not enough to win
genuine and general admiration;
pleasing manners are everything
to this end; they will win every
time, even though beauty of face,
form and dress may be lacking.
Of course a girl is not expected
to bestow her smiles indiscrimi-
nately upon Tom, Dick and Har-
ry, for one of the three may
be utterly unworthy of a nice
girls recognition, but, when pass
ing along the street, she should
assuredly greet with a bow and
pleasant smile every respectable
friend and acquaintance whom she
may meet. And she should not
wait to be spoken to or greeted
first; it is her duty to be first with
Il greeting, and the reason is sim
pie. Any man whom she pleas
antly recognizes is bound as n gen.
tleman to respond promptly to
her greeting; otherwise, he shows
that he is not a gentleman, and
she is absolved from any further
recognition of him.
But, if gentleman speaks or
bows to the girl first and she neg
lects to respond, as sometimse hap
pens on Punta Gorda's streets, what
is he to Think Either that the girl
did so to show that she dislikes
him, or that she is deficient in
good breeding. Whatever the
conclusion, that man admires that
girl no more; he writes her down
as a female boor upon whom he
wasted his politeness.
When a girl goes out walking,
she should put on her best be-
havior, her most pleasing man
ers-that is, if she wishes people
to like and admire her. Indeed, q
girl should be gracious, pleasing
and captivating in her manners
not only on the streets, but every
where else; otherwise, she is no
better than a harum-scarum hood
lum of n boy. Girls and women
are expected to be better, sweeter
and more lovable than boys and
men; that's what they are made
for; that's why men worship them.
If you cannot be pleasing, win
some and lovable, get thee to a
nunnery at once and stay there.
The world does not want YOU.

THE POOR COW
CAUSES TROUBLE
THE TRADING OF A DISEASED COW
LANDS man In JAIL.
MAYOR ROLLINS WAS CURIOUS.
Sends Constable Laub aud Marshal Rankin on
War Path Friday With Startling Results
for Many.

A whole lot of things happened last
week because of the determination of
Mayor Rollins and the local board of
health to see that Denison people have
milk from cows free form tuber
culosis.
The assistant state veterinarian
DR.. Simpson has been testing the
milk COWS and one which did not
come up to the test was owned by
Mr.. Robert Hird. He hardly knew
what to do with the animal and so
gave it to Bert Stevers it being under
stood as to her condition. Mr.. Stevers
kept the COW for few days letting
calf suck her. About last Thurs
day horse traders came to town and
Stevers traded the COW and calf to
one named Fred Willard for pony.
Willard was going west so he took
his new possessions to Arion and
there sold the calf to the butcher,
and the COW for $27 to Mr.. Adelbert
Lee. The horse trader proceeded on
his way beyond Dow City.
Mayor Rollins had this diseased
COW on his mind. and made inquiry
as to her whereabouts. He found out
as to the trade to Willard and decided
to trace the matter up. Mr.. w. H.
Laub and DR.. Simpson stated on the
trail and coming to Arion found the
calf had been killed for meat. Lee
was found and the case explained to
him.
He thereupon filed information
against Willard for obtaining money
under false pretense. The warrant
was put in the hands of the marshal
at Arion. Mr.. Rankin. MIR. Laub
and the marshal and the party went
on through Dow City until Willard
was found. He was brought back to
Dow City in charge of Rankin. He
said he was innocent as to the health
of the COW and was ready to give
back the money. He made an at
tempt to get away from the custody
of the marshal and in this he was. ii
is claimed, assisted by Jas. Butler
of Arion. who pushed back the officer
Mr.. Laub had hand in preventin,
Willard from getting away before tn
had satisfied all parties. Later
friend of his paid back the none.
and he was allowed to go.

rad of Arion. who at first sentence,
him to six months in Jail. but late
on finding that he had no power t
sentence above thirty days bound hi
man over to the grand jury placin
the bail bond at $500. Mr.. Butle
went to Jail.
