There All the Time,

1t is told of DR.. Thorold that he was
once asked to give away the prizes at
a school belonging to the London
school board.
In the course of his opening address
he gravely asked the children, Which
was the largest island in the world be-
for Australia was discovered"
When the youngsters gave it up he
said in the same grave way, which
made them laugh all the more, why,
Australia, Of course; it was there all
the time!"

POLY PLEASES
Elm AgDIE:IG E
THE CIRCUS SHOW IS ONE OF THE
MosT POPULAR THAT CONES
TO FAlRMoNT.

y II
The popular plzy, Polly Of the Cir
GUS" was again presented at the
Grand last night to a full house and
its former success was much more
than duplicated by very much the
same capable cast of characters as ap'
peared in the piece last. season, the
only noticeable change being in that
of the minister which has in no way
suffered by the substitution OF Francis
Yale.
marguerite Mayo in giving to tle
public this very likeable story proved
her ability to mingle sentiment, love,
human nature and that gingery, gilt
tering dash OF circus, life together in
such a harmonious manner as to meet
q metropolitan approval.
Take from the play all the circus
features and a beautiful little drama
of suffcfent merit to please most any
audience would be left, but when this
story is enlivened by real circus at
mosphere, presenting on the stage real
clowns, acrobats, trapese performers
real live ponies. the bucking mule OF
circus fame and "Old Bingo." the cir
Gus horse, ridden around tae ring by
real equestrlenne, scene Is pre-
scented that is difficult to imagine
would be possible on the one night
stands, and affords a most striking
setting for the climax of the story.
Miss Fay. Wallace again does almost
perfect work in the title role and by
ner constant study and presentation
OF the play has so familiarized her,
self with all the little details OF the
part that no other Polly" is ever de-
sired or even Thought of in this con
nection. Her cleverness as an actress
is we'll shown in her equal ability to
handle the Fighter lines of the play
in sucn manner as to give the audi
ence the most pleasure by her droll
darts of wit and to elicit universal
sympathy in her striking and pathet
ic climaxes in which she often brings
tears to the eyes.
Edward saxton, as the old clown
is still with the show and his work is
Of a high character performed in
most pleasing manner. Jules Farrar,
the big boss canvasman, again makes
his part go we'll and while he saves
no lives, stops no runaways, and.
wears no Carnegie medals, he bears
the same relation to the audience as
the most popular hero and ne shared
equal honors with Miss Wallace and
Francis Yale in the numerous curtain
calls.
VIM. Henchey, as Hasty Jones. Ma
rie Plat as Mandy Jones and Cecilia
Clay as Miss Perkins, furnished the
comedy for the play and no complaints
were heard from the ring master or
the audience as to their efficiency.
The piece is possibly the most ex-
penslYely staged of any play appear
ing here. The scenery is ample but
not gorgeous but the presentation Of
the circus scene in the last act with
| the live stock carried more than
makes up for lack of other embellish-
ments. The picture of the circus wag-
ems leaving the little country village
over the hills in the moonlight was
much admired.

AN EDITOR DIsAPPEARS-LIKE-
WISE THE CASH

Our editor Mr.. A. L. Buchanan, left
us four weeks ago, and we do not
know the cause Of his prolonged alb
sence. After trying to ascertain his
whereabouts without any results, we
have come to the conclusion that he
left for good and has no intention of
disclosing his present abode. It leaves
US in a bad plight, as he had full
charge of the editorial as we'll as the
financial department of the paper,
and we have lost both the editor as
well as the funds.
Under these circumstances there is
nothing left but to suspend the Argus
until we can make other arrange
ments. We can only say at this writ
ing that we are negotiating to have
the Argus continued, and hope to
bring the deal to a successful issue
shortly. The Argus started under
the brightest auspices and we are
very sorry that this unfortunate af-
fair occurred. We had full confidence
in the Rev. A. L. Buchanan, and still
have some hope that he may return
and can explain his absence satisfac-
torily to all. A report reached us
about a month ago that he was sick
in a hospital in Jacksonville, but he
cannot be NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Argus.

Special Cor. Ocala Banner:
Some of our young people attended
the Valentine party, given by Mr..
and Mrs. Charles H. Rogers of Lynne
on the evening of the 18th inst. 1t
was certainly the most enjoyable so
cial event of the season. The decora-
tons were beautiful and must have
consumed considerable thought and
ume. Those who brought Valentines
put them into the postoffice, to be
read and handed out later. Then the
young folks began playing games. At
ter several games had been enjoyed
Mrs. Rogers put all the young people
out and pinned large heart on the
wall, and as each one returned and
entered the room he or she was blind
folded, given an arrow, and started
straight for the heart, and told to
stick the arrow into the heart, The
one that pierced the heart nearest
the center was to receive a prize. 1t
was quite laughable to see how near
they came or how wide they missed
the mark. Mr.. S. E. Smith of Electra
won the prize. which was a handsome
necktie. Mr.. Pat Reynolds of Lynne
received the BOBBY prize, a doll
Cake and lemonade was then s,rv-
ed, after which more games were in
order until a late hour, when the
pOstoffice was examined and the Val
entines opened and read. Some of
them were the cause of a great deal
of merriment, at the expense of the
owners. Mr.. Will Hutto won the
prize for having received the most
Valentines, with Capt John Rogers
a close . second, and judging from
those read aloud he will not much
longer be a bachelor.
Of the ladies Miss Laura Driggers
and Miss Dixie Pillans received the
greatest number, but all present got
a goodly share, showing that Cupid
had not been idle for the past week.
Those present were: Miss Snow,
Miss Laura DriggeTs, Miss Dixie Pill
lans. Miss Bette McCarley, Misses
Ethel and Flossie Standard, Miss FL

And 10! that fair young couple were

The marriage took place at her moth

And not on the bridge across the

With many good wishes and pres

Eddie. my boy, you've BEEN faithful,

How we'll, indeed, you've played
your part:
May you for a husband prove as true
As you for years have been a sweet

Dear Inez. just a word for you:
As in welded life you now begin,
May your influence ever be for good
And many souls for God shall win.
Among the many you win for Him,
May your dear companion be first
of all;
Then by living together a life for
Christ,
You will both be ready for the Mas
ter'S call!

Mr.. RoosEvELT'S SERVICE.

From the London Spectator. - We
cannot pass over the retirement of
Mr.. Roosevelt without adding a few
words in review of his remarkable
presidency, and as a token of very
warm admiration OF him as man.
He will always be remembered as the
president who was responsible for the
tone of that transition period in which
the United States passed from her old
circumstances of detachment into the
larger business of the politics of the
world And he has secured that her
influence should not only be one of
the most powerful Influences in ex.
istence, but that 1t should be employ.
ed consistently in just and righteous
causes. If Mr. Roosevelt wants his
country to be strongly armed it is be.
cause it increases her power to de.
fend the right. That is what strikes
us chiefly about his relation during
the last seven years in other coun.
tries. But the same passion for high.
principled conduct has distinguished
his career as chief magistrate of the
American people. He has assumed
THAT public life can have as high an
