Why Keep a Horse ?

When you can have a Holsman, that costs less to maintain than horse, and is so much more satisfactory?
 The Holsman only costs l cent a mile to operate, and less than $3 a month for repairs. Can you keep horse as cheap as that? Will the horse go as fast as The Holsman? Is it always ready for instant use?
 The Holsman neither eats, sleeps, gets sick, nor requires currying, or stable-cleaning.
 The Holsman never tires out, gets overloaded or goes lame.
 The Holsman does not get balky or run away-when danger threatens it is always under control-one hand on the lever-the other hand free to operate the brake.

ASKS AN EXPLANATION

We want a few explanations from
our county commissioners. We were
told by them that a rest was neceS-
sary for the dear people from extra
taxa lion after the court house had
been finished, and they would discon-
tinue the building OF hard roads. Have
they done it? 1 am told the 500 sal
airy of the overseer continues to be
paid out each month and with 1t the
necessary expense that naturally fol-
lows the building of such roads. /
for one favor the continuation to build
hard roads, but must say l want the
road funds more evenly distributed
through the county. Each section pays
tits pro rata of the funds and is in my
humble judmgent entitled TO it's equal
share We also favor automobiles,
but do not think it a special duty to
build hard roads for their convenience.
No. build the roads by all means and
do so with anieye single to the up
building Of the county and giving
each section of the I county its
proportion of the road funds. The
checked shirt coon with mule and
wagon would visit Ocala often and
with them would come various kinds
of produce and add materially to
Ocala's prosperity. AS it now stands
we have to content ourselves by TAX
ing chances with the little market and
getting little prices. However, we have
to be content and we try to be happy.
If it was different and we could get
to the money centers, we might grow
disconnected hearing the big guns dis
cussing the stringency of money mat
tiers. Why we out in the woods do not
know there has been stringency in
the money world and had the peopie
out in the woods heard Of it in time
am satisfied they would have rushed
to Wall streets rescue and saved its
false alarm.
When Senator d. u. Fletcher takes
bis senatorial harness on and gets un-
| der way the dear people will have a
true friend and one with a great big
| broad brain. Hurrah for Fletcher!

"MERRYWiDoWITls"
A Disease that is Affecting Wearers
of the Hats in Savannah

"Merrywidowitis" is the name for a
new disease which has infected the
women of Savannah since the popular
Merry Widow spring hat has bloomed
into prominence.
Lots of things have been said about
the new style of hat; some by people
who have to sit behind them in the
moving picture shows; some by wom-
en- whom large hats do not become,
and still more by men who get jabbed
in the eye with them by walking be-
side one. However, not until the last
few days has it been noticed that wo-
men who have worn the new style
for few months have become affect
ed with a peculiar nervous twitching
of the head and neck.
Because these hats are so large Ii is
impossible to pin them closely to the
head and they. are bound to slip from
one side to the other. With so much
weight and size it is an easy matter
to straighten the hat by a slight
twitch of the head sideways, front oil
back. That is what is causing the
trouble. Some of the hats are SO large
and slip so much it is necessary to al
most constantly keep moving the heat
to keep them in place.
"Iiget so used to moving my Jheat
in a short jerky way when l am wear
ing my hat that when take it off
find myself affected by new nervous
ness which causes short jerk Of the
head said an admirer and wearer Of
the extremely large hats. mot only
have 1 noticed it, but l have heard
several women say they are affected
the same way. If you will just notice
some time when you see two or three
women wearing Merry Widow hats
talking together you will see theil
heads. constantly twitching. 1t is abb
solutely necessary to do it unless you
put your hand up to your hat every
time it starts to fall over to one side
or in front of your face or back OF
your head. / think the name merry
widowitis' should be given to this par
ticular, sort Of nervousness affectins
so many women now."-Savannaf

Gabrielle d'Annunzio Has Numerous
and Varied Outfit Of Clothes.
The wardrobe of Gabrielle d'Annun-
zio shares with his new play, The
Ship" the attention of the italian
newspapers. A Roman reporter who
got an opportunity to look over his
stock of clothes reports that the poet
owns ~ shirts, IA pairs Of colored
socks, some Of silk and some Of thread,
4S pairs Of street gloves and "a pairs
of white ones; umbrellas, including
several of violet hue; 20 dozen hand
kerchiefs, $50 scarfs and neckties, 10
house jackets and pairs of slippers.
There were about dozen hats OF
all shapes, evening dress coats, dinner
coats, frock coats, waistcoats, fancy
and plain Trousers and shoes are de-
Bcribed as innumerable. The purchase
of new supplies is described as being
serious business on which the poet
concentrates his artistic faculties, so
that nothing may belong to him which
is not worthy of him. He also gives
up his whole soul to the process OF
dressing, so that his mind may be
completely at liberty when it is over
in the consciousness that no mistakes
have been made through discord IN
colors or combinations of tnharmoni-
GUS forms.

When the measure was laid aside

supply of the United States; an in
crease of $4,000 to the appropria-
ton for testing structural materials,
and 100000 for testing coal lignites,

length in the senate today on the
Brownville affair. Mr.. Buckley de-
clared his belief in the innocence of
the negro soldiers of the 25th regi-
ment and said the rioters in town
on the night of Aug. 10, 1906, in his
judgment, were lawless Mexicans,
from outside of town, assisted by
the lawless class within Brownsville
Mr.. Buckley spoke over four hours
his remarks including review of all
the testimony that had been taken in
the case. The senate today passed
the house resolution appropriatine
$25O,OO0 to relieve recent tornado suf-
erers in Alabama, Georgia, Mississ-
ippi and Louisiana.

him to doctor and tried half dozen
other treatments, all with the same
result: no Improvement at all. The
disease gradually spread until nearly
every part of his body was quite raw,
We had to strap him down in bed, for
he used to tear himself dreadfuhy in
his sleep. The agony he went through
is quite beyond words. No one thought
we would rear him. The regimental
doctor, very clever man, pronounced
the case hopeless; at least, he said the
only, hope was that he might, if ne
lived long enough, .outgrow it to some
extent. We had him in hospitals four
times and he was pronounced one OF
the worst cases, if not the worst, ever
admitted. From each he was dis
charged as incurable; in fact he got
worse under the successive treatments.
At one hospital they incased him in
plaster, and this seemed to aggravate
the soreness terribly. He looked so
badly that no one liked to 60 near him
and his life was burden to him. We
kept trying remedy after remedy, but
we had got almost past hoping for g
cure. Six months ago we purchased
set of Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and
them. The result was truly marvellous
not having a blemish on it anywhere.
