CLEAN VIRUS /!
Wouldn't That Jar You ?

In the pro and con treatment of the
vexed vaccination question, by two OF
three state papers, there have been sew.
eral citations of learned authorities by
each to bolster up his side of the con.
troverSy.
Thus, the Tampa Times quotes the
Encyclopedia Britannica TO prove that
vaccination is good, and the American
Eagle of Estero, Fla, quotes the same ref
erence work to prove that vaccination is
bad. One quotes from the American
edition, the other from the English edi-
ton. The Eagle rather puts il on the
Times by disclosing that the writer of
vaccination article in the American ed
ition is United States Marine Hospital
pro vaccination fanatics.
All this shows that you can, If you are
industrious, find eminent authorities 10
prove anything by.
Now, ! have reverence for eminent
authorities; no home is happy without
them. They are useful in shedding
light on all subjects that cannot be rea-
soned out by the application of that
homely but good old authority-Com-
mon Sense.
When the dicta of eminent authorities
clash with common sense, then its good
bye, eminent authorities, for mine.
| am this way about this vaccination
question. On il eminent authorities fail
to nudge me.
For, know that vaccine virus, with
which vaccination is performed, is the
puS that exudes from a sore on the belly
of calf that has been infected with
cowpoX.
1t is disease laden, il is handsomely
foul, it is poison.
Some editors talk of clean virus This
is nonsense talk handed out by doctors
formed on wound they are treating.
1t is pathological play on words.
Vaccine virus is puS. Ii cannot be
clean, because it is pus and, therefore,
unclean.
Well, this pus, this unclean matter,
this exudation from a sore made by a
loathsome disease, this poison, is, by
the process of vaccination, put into the
blood of perfectly healthy person.
In the hope that that person may not
have bad case of smallpox, in case that
person should be one of thousand who
might some time during the next seven
years catch small pox.
If vaccination was the only chance a
person had to escape smallpox, the
chance would not be worth half the
risk run by putting rank poison into
healthy blood.
1t is not the only chance to escape
smallpox. 1t has not proven a proven
tive nor even modifier of the disease
Sanitation has done more to reduce
smallpox than all the vaccination done
since Jenner'S time.
Smallpox is disease bred by dirt.
Keep things clean and smallpox will
pass away.
If there was no dirt there would be no
smallpox. Less dirt, less smallpox.
1t is surprising that doctors will advo-
cate vaccination when sanitation is the
unfailing specific against the disease
that vaccination has not conquered nor
reduced in fifty years of warfare

Tampa's Census Celebration.

The great two weeks Census Celebra-
ton marking the tremendous increase
of 1882 per cent in Tampa's population,
for which preparations have been going
on during the past three months, will
open up next Saturday, Feb 18th, under
auspices that bid fair TO make it the
most noteworthy and attractive event OF
its kind ever held in the South.
In appreciation of the unusual attrac.
tons which will be offered to Floridi-

steamship companies in the state have
announced half fare from all points in
Florida TO Tampa, commencing Febru.
airy 10th and continuing until the 25th OF
this month.
The program which has been com
pleted for this years celebration ex-
ceeds in magnitude and attractiveness
that of any previous fair or celebration
ever held in Tampa, and is sure to at
tract banner crowd of amusement
seekers from all points in Florida and
the southern states.
The chance to witness the daring per-
formances of some of the most renowned
one of the greatest drawing cards of the
celebration. For four days, commencing
Feb. 18th, such well known man birds
as McCurday, Ward, Post and Beachey

risk their lives in an attempt TO carry off
the Census Celebration trophies.
The Eighth Division of the United

Florida High schools and Athletic asso-
Citations will be held at the Tampa Bay
track. Nearly two hundred contestants
are entered for the eleven events which
will constitute this interesting program
of field events. The committee in
charge of the athletic meet will award
valuable silver cup and a number OF
medals TO the successful aspirants for
athletic distinction.
February 22nd, WaShington's Birth
day, will be the big Mardi Gras day of
the celebration, and it is conServatively
estimated that over 100, 900 visitors will
flock in to Tampa on that day in order
to witness the monster Gasparilla dem,
onStration and the greatest flower carni-
val in the history of the South.
Those who delight in the varied at
fractions of range or pike will be
pleased 10 learn that this feature of the
celebration has received the especial
attention of the Arrangement Commit
tee. The Florida Pike will be com
posed of the numerous spectacular at
fractions that always add zest and inter
est 10 big celebrations. Most of the
features that made famous the Midway
PlaiSance, the Missouri Pike and the
Jamestown Range will be seen at the
Florida Range.

Two Sunsets Per Day.

There is one place in the world
where the sun sets twice daily. and
that is at Leek. in Staffordshire, Eng
land. The reason of this is that jag
ged mountain is situated to the west
Of the town, and in the evening the
sun sets behind it and darkness comes
on. Then the first sunset occurs, the
gas lamps are lit. and apparently night
has set in. But it has not, for in the
space of an hour or so the sun reap
pears again through the opening at
the side of the mountain. and daylight
again appears. Artificial lights are
extinguished, and daylight again pre-
walls until the sun descends below the
opening and the second sunset occurs
and night comes to stay.

OPENING OF THE
ORPHEUM THEATER
Messrs. Shubert & Co. Send
The Blue Mouse to Open
Palatka's New Play

Few farces have contained as many
natural complications as is said TO be
the case in "The Blue Mouse" Clyde
Fitch's farce which the Messrs. Shubert
will offer here for the first time next
Tuesday, Feb. 21st, at the Orpheum
theater. The farce met with immense
success in Germany, where it ran for
over two years. When produced in
New York the Metropolitan critics
recognized the merits of the piece and
accordingly the criticisms were without
exception praiseworthy.
Paulette Divine, a Salome dancer,
known as "The Blue Mouse" consents
to act as the wife of Rollett, secretary to
the president OF the Interstate Railroad.
This scheme the secretary evolves in
order 10 have the bogus Mrs. Rollett
flirt with his superior officer and obtain
his promotion from clerkship TO divis-
ion superintendent. The filtration is
well begun in the first act when the
real Mrs. Rollette is caught, by the
president, in the arms of his clerk. He
mistakes her for "The Blue Mouse" SO
that when the real Mrs. RoIlett returns
to the offices of the company a few
minutes later-having fled in dismay-
the president, under the impression that
she is the dancer, flirts with her The
scene is most amusing. In the midst of
il the presidents own wife enters his
private office and complications are
doubled. Three acts are required to I'M
ravel the skeins of the tangled threads
and before the finish Rollett's father-in-
law, who believes his daughter is being
abused, drops in and falls victim to the
real "Blue Mouse's" charms. So capti-
waited is he that the old gentleman from
Cohoes, upon learning that the "Mouse"
is going TO auction her household ef-
fects, offers TO buy them in and gives
her check for $4,000. This son-in law
learns of-as he is hiding behind cur
tains during the transaction-and uses
the information as lever to wrench a
handsome dowry from papa" In the
large cast are Grace Merritt, Wilton

We admire the way Pensacolians stick
to favorite. For several days after the
primary they would hear 10 nothing but
that Mr.. Blount had been nominated.
So intensely partial were they TO their
fellow ownsman that when the PenSaco-
la Evening News finally published fig
ureS showing that Mr.. Bryan was in the
lead they accused the paper of wanting
Bryan nominated" and made things so
unpleasant for Editor Felkel that he felt
called upon TO come out in double col
umn editorial diSclaiming any such de-
sire. The partiality of his home people
is high tribute to Mr.. Blount's cbarac-
ter. Very few men in Florida have
ever received the endorsement of so
large percentage of their fellow-towns-
men as he received at the polls on Jan
uary 31St-Bradford County Telegraph.

Curinq q Snake Bite,

This Is how the Indians of Central
America cure Il snake bite: They pin
the unlucky patient to the ground and
wind strong creepers above and below
the bite until they cut into the flesh
Then they apply a live coal to the
wound to cauterize it and follow that
up by rubbing in a mixture of chewed
tobacco and crushed garlic. By this
time the victim is nearly mad with
pain and ready to kill everybody in
sight, especially when he finds, as he
often does, that the snake was not
venomous.
