ish wealth of natural beauty it be-
came an easy thing for the hand or
man. to give the finishing touches
which have wrought out the colors
and outlines of the big picture.
Man did all this in the laying out
of the streets with their wide margins
of parkage. The entire city becomes
great park, with driveways inter
secting. miles upon miles OF drive
ways so goou as to attract motorists
from all over the continent.
And as for the paVements, pave
ments that look and act like granite
where else between the eastern
and western seas are so many miles
in proportion to inhabitants? The
pavement question stands with the
street as one of the chief drawing
cards. Till some unheard of
place reports more and better, Day
tona throws down the gauntlet to the
world
Squirrels, Flowers, Birds and Fruit.
Whatever comes shortcomings and
however Indifferent or even callous
one may be to many things, the mere
mention of flowers and Squirrels,
birds and fruits" will send a thrill
that is reflected in distended pupils
and pricked ears.
For every visitor with a spare goo
Der there is a bunny ready to come
and accept your gift. He will sit bolt
upright and knaw into the meat,
casting furtive, saucy glances at you
meanwhile.
Flowers. Usually fresh and bloom
ing the year round You are reminded
of Goldsmiths cOuplet where
Smiling spring its earliest visit paid
And summers lingering blossoms
are delayed.
In one yard roses of varigated hues
predominant; another household has
a penchant for the poincetta and the
premises are aflame; another is hid |
den in a jungle of tall cane. Variety |
is the spice of life and here is where
you find it.
The birds fit in, and with their
joyous notes help to give fullness
and symmetry to the picture
AS for fruits, choice citrus fruits,
Daytona yields the palm to none for
quality and quantity per acre. There
are scores of citrus groves in prox-
unity to the city, branches bending
to the earth with their burdens of
luscious golden globes, which for
beauty, proflicacy and all desirable
qualities would truly astonish you.
The Fastest Autos and The Finest
Out.
The seventh world wonder, do you
ask? Come, whether from Missouri
or from Maine, from Kalamazoo or
and you will be shown"
Here is where the wOrIu record for
speed is broken with every recurring j
season. Autos, the biggest, the fast Il
est, and the finest are on daily parad'
and the big show is as free as the
pure artesian water from the thOus-
ands of flowing wells. 1t is a con-
-inuous show with constantly shift
ng scene.
Everything goes, from a 2-horse
power, up to a 2OO-horse power, and
Ill degrees of speed from acanter to
4 twO-mile-a-minute clip. You will
catch the spirit, when you
10 the roads and the beach are yours.
The Florida sunshine is free, the
)almy ocean breezes are free, the
birds and squirrels and flowers are
rec, the sparkling fountain water is
rec and you will have to go down in
o your wallet only for coin for auto, II
md bed and board.
This is no fanciful picture: it's all !
lere. 1t is drawing other thousands
nd holding them enthralled, it will
harm and hold you. Come and see.

Quaker Oats il the hest of all +

Quaker Oats is the best Of all foods;
it is also the cheapest. When such
men as Prof. Fisher of Yale University
and Sir James Crichton Browne, :
IL. D.-F.R RS. of London spend the
best parts of their lives in studying
the great question of the nourishing
and strengthening qualities of different
foods, it is certain that their advice is
absolutely safe to follow.
Professor. Fisher found in his ex-
periments.f for testing the strength and
endurance Of athletes that the meat
eaters were exhausted long before the
men who were fed on such food as
Quaker Oats. The powers of endur.
ance of the non-meat eaters were
about eight times those of the meat
eaters.
Sir James Crichton Browne says
eat more oatmeal, eat plenty of it and
eat it frequently. $

S So, 486 81
1t is probable that the full amount,
$50, 486. 81. will not be realized as there
is likely to be some loss in the collec-
ton of taxes. TIE statement as it stands
shows an excess of liabilities of $16,-
926. 81 Of the warrants outstanding
$40. 954. 50 represents expenditure fol
construction of the water system, and
we understand that such expenditure
will in due time be funded by the
issue of bonds.
To provide for the bond liability of
$40. 600. 90 the city has cash in the
sinking fund, Sc, $50. 90. and the levy
of 1909 for sinking fund, So, $50. 90, a
total of So, $780, 90. If the levies of
future years during the term of the bonds
are for the same amount as in 1909 the
bond liability will be fully provided

fund must, of course, be increased.
The City is growing and will probably

has the assessment of So, 1884, A in the

1t thus appears that adequate pro-
vision exist for all the liabilities of the
City except the general warrants
amounting 10 $35. 1897 and that for
these it has assets of about SIS, 600. 90
which can be applied to their liquida-
tion. A further bond issue of SIS. 600. 90

GREECE AND TURKEY
 MAY YET DISAGREE

Constantinople, November 12-(Special.) The Tanin states that the government will grant Nabi Bey, the Ottoman minis ter at Athens, who has been here for the last two months, unlimited leave. It adds that this may be regarded as the first step toward 8 definite rupture of diplomatic relations with Greece. Of- fioial circles have not denied that this statement is likely to be we'll founded. The committee of union and progress, which may be considered synonymous with the government, is of opinion that the appointment of a person who is looked upon by the Turks in the same light as an Ottoman deserter," to the pre- miership of Greece is an affront which Justif1es what may be described as the po- litical cut direct. Were the Cretan ques- tion solved or near a solution of a na- ture to satisfy Turkish opinion. such a course might not have been followed.
 Such is the opinion of the rules of Turkey, and 1t must be confessed that there seems little chance of any change in their views at this the eleventh hour.

FEW CHANGES MADE
 IN COTTON PRICES Range of Fluctuations for the
 Day Is Small OFFERINGS ARE FREE Opening Is Lower Hut Prices Become Firm and Higher Very Early
 Followed By Gradual
 Easing Off
OFFERINGS ARE FREE

New York, November 12.-The cotton market was quiet today with business chiefly in the way of evening up for over the week end or pending fresh develop ments. Prices fluctuated within a range of about points with the close quiet but steady net point higher to points lower
 The opening was steady at decline of to points in response to indifferent cables and private advices from Liver pool claiming that the south was offer ing cotton more freely at yesterdays ad- vance. Southern advices, however, claim ed continued flrmness on the part of holders and offerings here were by no means aggressive. At any rate, prices firmed up right after the call on covering for over the weekend and during the early trading showed a net gain of about to 4 points. There was a little more selling around 14.9O cents for May and the market eased off again later In the morning, but showed no weakness and ruled very quiet after the first half-hour Sentiment regarding the size of the crop seemed to be very much confused
 Recepits at the ports today 45, 2o3, against 51,e61 last week, and 89,175 last year. For the week, 350.000 bales against sos last week and 2770e6 last year. To- days receipts at New Orleans, 5151 bales against 46SS last year. and at Houston ,472 bales against 10.s93 last year.

FALL FROM THE SKY
Experience as Narrated by One Who
 Had 1t

August Post, in October Century.
 The one question we are asked every where, even to this day, just as we were asked it on the roof at Friedenau, Is How did it feel to fall a third of mile in balloon?" If you want to know how it felt to pass through the experience we did, think first of what we had to do.
 We had to move a ton of sand out Of the car, and we had to do 1t in less than two minutes and half. If you want to knsY how that feels go down into the cellar and move a ton of coal from one side to the other, while some one holds watch and tells you when two minutes and half goes by. Then try to see how much you felt and remembered while you were doing it.
 It will give you a better idea If you move the coal while you are in state of intense, vivid mental concentration, compressing years, as it were, into mo- ments. If we had had but those two and a half minutes for the rest of our lives, as it looked at first, they would have been at least very good measure.
