account of his health. He built a good
home on Minnesota avenue, and recent

Five years ago / had stroke of
paralysis and was in bad condition,

more in good shape. My rheumatism
has gone and my catarrh gives me no
trouble. and to be relieved of those two
complaints is n blessing. / surely can
recommend st. Cloud to my comrades
who suffer from the effects of the cold
and changeable climate of the North.
Many others who came crippled up and
suffering with various ailments are now
happy in being able to get around and
be free from pain"

The Land OF Small Capital.

Florida is essentially the land for the
man of moderate means and whose
livelihood must be the work of his own
hands. With the same skill and indus
try he can make few acres in Florida
yield as much as many acres in the
North. The farmer in Florida never
completely loses his years work, as he
must in Northern sections of the coun-
try. Here he has at least three chances
during the year, whereas the Northern
farmer has but one, and unfavorable
conditions here one month are very

Racing in Missouri Again?

A bill is to be presented to the next
legislature for the restoration of horse
racing in Missouri, according to John
D. Knapp, of st. Louis, in COM
munication to the secretary Of state.
The original intention, Mr.. Knapp
says, was to submit the bill through
the initiative creating a state racing
commission, composed Of five men,
bers, appointed by the governor to
supervise and regulate the sport in
Missouri.
Mr.. Knapp says the movement
twas initiated by certain sporting
members Of the Missouri Referen-
dunn League at St Louis, who saw a
chance to restore racing in Missouri
under proper conditions and safe
guards, both to breeders and to the
public, by putting before the voters a
reform racing BILL" The betting
permitted in the contemplated act
would be on the 'pari-mutuel or auc-
ton pool style" Mr.. Knapp said.
If the bill fails Of passage, he says
they will submit it to the people
through the initiative in 1912.
