The Chinese.

The Chinese invented printing,
they invented gunpowder, they In
vented the mariners compass.
The farmers of China were the
first to hatch eggs by means OF IN
cubators, and the fishermen Of Chi
ma we're the first to hatch fish spawn
artificially. Artesian wells are OF
Chinese origin.
The penal code of China is thou
sands OF years old, and thousands OF
years old is the Chinese civil serv-

ilization has at last adopted.

Patronize the Advertisers.

There is more than one advantage IN patronzlng

known of town or city amounting to anything with

ze the live public spirited business men, but 1t IS an
aid in the upbuilding of our town and its institution
And everything that helps in building up, the town
heps every resident of that town-even enhances the
value of the holdings of those who too slow to help
themselves In fact were it not for the live business
men in town no business would come to the town and
sugpards would not get the little that they do
There is another thing to consider in bestowng pa

own hook and independently is of far more value to the
town than the fellow who merely peddng the goods

And this is why: From the
cash income derived from
these sales the current farm
purchases are made for the
individual and household
needs, in the daily or weekly
visits to the country and vii
lage stores. High prices
for this and other produce
help to increase the output.
Month by month the COM
mand on the farm over the

proof of a demand which
merchant and manufactures
are quick to recognize as the
advent of better times. The

no insignificant extent the

Hats Off to the Hen.

Primary as the great crops are among the Things
that make for farm prosperity and business recovery
thew are ably supplemented by such subsidiary sources
Of farm revenue as come from dairying and poultry

this country was $1 286 5s That was when prices ts
w. Los rrnged from 1c to 40 cents dozen, fully
Pgse wee fhs tha o ten years ago It Therefore easily
within the facts to say that the American hen now
adds to the income of the farm in eggs alone no less
than $3.50 900, 900 year ,..

of form income help to turn the tide from depression to

AN ENGLISH BLIZZARD.
II Took q Regiment Of Soldiers q
Clear the Roads In 1886.

There was a certain Hercules en-
CINE which cut a noble figure in the
English blizzard Of 1886.
To appreciate the role played by
the Hercules some idea must be
given of the effect of the storm on
other methods Of travel. Fourteen
mail coaches were abandoned on as
many roads. Another was dug out
of drifts five times between Exeter
and London.
Another was buried so deep that
il took 800 men, principally sappers
and miners. several hours to make a
passage to the coach and rescue the
mails and passengers, while near
Chatham the snow lay to a dcpth Of
thirty or forty feet, the military be-
ing turned out 10 the number Of
COO to clear the way.
In London the drifts were ten
feet deep, and hundreds of men and
carts were employed hauling snow
out TO the fields in the Suburbs. The
markets were in a bad way One
day only four stall holders were
able to reach n main market. Greens
which few DAYS before the storm
we're being sold for threepence a
bunch at market now fetched from
tenpence to a shilling, turnips, car
rots and celery becoming equally
dear, while penny handfuls Of pars-
lev realized 2s. Cd, and the happy
possessor Of bunch which he had
previously purchased for ninepence
realized for his prize no less a sum
than Il 2s. Sd.
Amid all this confusion the po-
neer railways covered themselves
with glory by rlnning trains almost
without interruption. There was a
deep cutting on one line where the
snow had drifted badly, and great
numbers of people turned out to
see how the Hercules engine would
get along. They imagined, Of course,
that she would be stopped, but to
their astonishment the engine dash
ed right into the drift, clearing
her way through apparently with
out the slightest difficulty, the snow
at the same time flying over the tor
of the engine chimney like foam
from the broken waves Of violent
sea. and Notwithstanding obstruc'
tions the train came down from
Greenhead twenty miles) in one
hour and a quarter" = London

You cannot look about you the street without see
np people who have money in their pockets which ought
TO be in your cash drawer or to your credit IN bank
You cannot look about you in your store or shop with
out seeing goods that these same people should own

These facts hold good if you have been doing
good business lately They the sort of facts which
make store-keepng the most interesting in the would
the most tantazing one too.
You can't go out on the streets personally and take
these people by the hands and lead them into your store
But YOU can go to them vicariously.
You can make your newspaper advertising your proxy
You can make it say to them all that is in your mind
all that you could possible say if you had their undiv
ded attention for an hour. And you can make what
YOU saw to them so nterestngso fraught with purse
Importance to them-that they will read eagerly.
Your advertising does this to great or small ex-
tent, of course falls short of its fullest appeal it
IS not as full of enthusiasm you are 1t is only half

Just GirlS---The Chaser.

There are some girls who 90 much farther than the
proverbia halfway station in meeting mans atten-
tons.
In fact they go all of the way and actually pursue
him.
girl of this type receives good deal of attention
not because of her popularity, but because of mems
galantry.
Men canaot bring themselves to repulse her and so
they suffer the pursuit
girl of sense knows when man sgrowing inter-
ested in her and she wishes to encourage him she can
do in a modest way that does not detract from the
dignity in the least But the chaser does not wait for
a man to seek her; she does the running.
She is an adept at limiting. When man calls on her
she asks him at parting when ne will call again. In
her eagerness she oversteps the mark and men are
9rad to be even mildly attentive to her for fear she
will msconstrue their attentions
know one girl of that type who has spoiled many
chances of marrying well simply through her anxiety
to hurry matters. She was good loohs, ba ariu tbou
and men were usually very much attracted wheh 'hey
first met her ,,e1 tlx
But the first thing they knew they would lind them
selves regarded almost members Oh Ihe r@iin,s, -
Thev would be invited to the house on al 0IcaeohS
and introduced TO the ants and cousins anu an rl,es
The girl called them hv their first name a. o anu
adopted tone of propetorship that was nos III
certing. The natural result Was that tne A'eA 'oon
discontinued their attentions. 49,,
This is the tyne of girl who asks to look at iiah
ring and then slips it payfuly her finger oeciheS
to return it.
She talks so much about certain pav that man
hate to saw it of any GIRL but the chaser gri IS
bold If she had any pride was the least bit sensl
tive she could not run after men as she does
Men constantly 'throw her down"---to use slang
phrase-and vet she bobs up again smiling sereney and
quite undsmaved.
She is good girl at heart but she is so desperately
afraid of being wall flower and perhaps an OLD maid
that she cannot wait for the to to seek her
but must needs do the seeking herself
Men are inclined to make fun of her and to speak
sghtngy of her because they prefer to do the running
themselves. No man values very highly that which
comes to him easily.
She will not be an old maid so she usually marries
some mouse of man who is flattered by her atten-
tons because other girls won't be bothered with him.
"Any port in storm is the motto of the chaser girl
Poor child. She is reallv to he pitied rather than
criticized she only wants attention and good time
which is natural enough.
A girl is running after when she makes ex-
cuses to telephone him almost every day or when she
writes three letters to his one.
These actions are so derogatorv in oirs anxiety to
have rood time TO marry hut the girl of sense and
dignity keens within bounds and does not display her
anxiety to the world.
ALWAYS feel sorry for the chaser girl she works
so hard for fun and it is of such small value when she
gets it.

Open Letter From Mr.. J. Henry

Titusville, Fla, Dec. 9th 1909.
Hon. B. K. Wilson,
Mayor, Titusville, Florida.
Dear Sir:-Will you kindly advise
the city council at its next meeting
that | will not qualify as city assess
or, so that they will be enabled to
elect an assessor. under section 10 of
the new charter.
My reasons for declining to quail
ify, is, that under section 45 of the
new charter, the assessor is required
to commence the assessment on
April 1st and continue until July, ,un-
der section q it is continued to Aug
ust, under section 81 it runs to Oct
Ober.
AS it has been my desire, if | so
wish, or my health requires, to take
such vacation in summer as | may
deem advisable, | feel that the
length of time required by the new
charter to perform the duties of as
SCISSOR legally, prevents me from fill
ing the office. and do not wish to
make an assessment that may be
questioned on that score as legal.
| would appreciate it if the board
would make my reasons for not
qualifying public.
Thanking you all for past kindness
and favors, JOHN HENRY.

JULIUS KLINE
SELLS OUT
QUITS BUSINESS
RETIRES

This statement comes like a bolt
from clear sky. No one knew it.
He hardly dreamed it himself. But,
realizing that his well placed real es-
tate investments give him a comfort
able income he has suddenly decided
to quit the mercantile business and
enjoy his competency and have time
to see more of his friends and enjoy
life.
Mr.. Kline simply knows when he
has enough and gives up the mercan7
tile business to enjoy life.
Mr.. Kline will devote his time to
real estate, and Titusville is to be
congratulated on having his energies
behind her up-building.
Coming here seventeen years ago,
a poor unaided young man, hardly
out of his teens, among strangers
and alone, with no one he could go to
for aid or consolation, he battled his
way from the ranks to be the head
of Titusville's mercantile life.
Through good years and bad he
fought his way. He started humbly,
honestly and industriously, adding a
little each day to his stocks.
These were hard days to Julius
Kline, but gold to be pure must go
through the crucible, and his labOrs
and his sufferings brought their re-
ward. His store has grown until
for years it's stood head and should
ers ahead of any mercantile estab-
lishment for miles around.
The selling out of Julius Kline
makes sad the hearts of thousands of
appreciative customers who looked
upon Kline's as their trading home.
julius Kline remembers, and time
can't make him forget those who
have traded with him, helped him in
his fight for success.
He bows his thanks and hopes to
grasp their hand and thank each one
personally during his closing out.
The die is cast.
The secret is out.
The business is in the hands of The
Mill-Factory Syndicate, and their
manager, Mr.. Watson, has closed
the doors, to open Saturday morning
at 9 o'clock.
Their orders are to sell out the en-
tire stock at cost and less.
See the doors swing open and the
goods waltz out.
Come for price list.

en- Saturday at ga N.

The large clothing store of Win
ston S. Branning has been closed
since Thursday morning preparatory
to the big sale which opens Saturday
morning at 8 o'clock.
Mr.. Branning, when interviewed
by reporter of The STAR, stated
that his entire stock of $4,000. 90 will
be closed out at cost, to make room
for spring goods, and that he intend
ed to cut the prices on goods to a
point that would make the people
buy in large quantities.
This will undoubtedly prove of
great benefit to the public who are
never slow to take advantage of an
opportunity such as this sale affords.
Mr.. Branning says he has prepared

all properly during the sale. We
bespeak for him a gigantic business
as he has always carried the most re-
liable quality of goods, the kind that
gives satisfaction.
The stock consists of mems and
boys clothing, hats, caps, boots,
shoes and furnishings and ladies' and
children's shoes and hosiery.
Every family should avail them
selves of the opportunity to secure
some of the goods while this sale
lasts.
