has to go through the divorce court
to get it.
Divorce for some women is the only
way to have them from life of de-
graduation. Bound to some men, there
are women who have stultified their

nestly, two aged men, bent in body

scene of this character would not
attract more than passing interest,
but when it is known that the son of
one of these men had murdered the

men were Henry Beattie and Robert

Jr., and his young wife, respectively.
Although they had been friends
from boyhood the strain upon the
chord holding them together was
enough to sever the ties, but they are
friends yet, because they are true

make the world better.

den, bathroom and the bedrooms are
all elegantly furnished, the bathroom
having running water and separate
lavatory, and an element of comfort
pervades the whole scheme of this
ideal home. In the den we were
shown many trophies, attesting Mr..
Tinker's skill as a sportsman, among
them a moosehead and mounted
deer.
The entire house is fitted up with
modern gas fixtures and is thorough
ly lighted with gas manufactured on
the place.
One of the many great blessings of
nature which Mr.. Tinker has taken
advantage of is a splendid spring of
pure soft water from which his en-
tire premises are supplied, being lift
ed from the spring to a large tank,
and thence distributed over the en-
tire premises, affording fire protec-
ton as well as for other purposes.
Wildwood is located sixteen miles
north of Ocala on the national high
way leading from New York to Tam
pa, Florida.
The body of land comprising Mill
wood plantation is of the most fer
tile, and it has been proven by Mr..
Tinker that farming pays" in Flor
ida. No part of Mr.. Tinker's place
is for sale, and he is rather more in
the market to buy land than to sell.
While Wildwood is rather the excep-
ton than the rule, it only goes to

cept at fattening time, when they are
allowed to run through the fields to
gather up the 'leavings" from the
corn, potato and peanut crops. Thus
it may be seen that the raising of
hogs, handled as Mr.. Tinker handles
them, can be made very profitable
with small outlay of capital or labor.
Among the crops gathered this fall
We're large yields of corn, oats, pea
nuts, tons of natural grass and beg
garweed hay, sweet potatoes and vel
vet beans, besides minor crops of
feed stuffs used during the season
for feeding the chickens, colts, calves
and pigs. A first glance at the young
stock on the place of all sizes and
ages would lead one to believe that
the place was an experimental farm
conducted by state or federal experts.
Mr.. Tinker has associated with him
at wildwood a graduate from the
North Carolina Agricultural College,
Mr.. D. S. Cromartie, who has shown
BY results obtained that he is the
right man in the right place. He is

Adjacent to the barn is an engine

"MilIwood"-Mr. Tinker's Home
Wildwood, the present home of Mr..
Tinker, occupies an ideal location, Sc
lected and built upon about an hun
dred years ago by Colonel Samuel H.
Owens, one of the most prominent
men in public life of the pioneer days
in Florida, who built magnificent
home, sheltered by towering oaks,
magnolia, sweet gum and hickory
trees. Mr.. Tinker, recognizing the

for the products of poultry farm,
and at prices that make the business
a very profitable one.
The cattle are all thoroughbred Jer-
seys. and the prolific natural pastur-
age on the place keeps them in fairly
good shape the year round with very
little feed at the barns. Several of
these animals are registered, and are
the pride of that section of the coun-
ty. Mr.. Tinker intended exhibiting
several head of his fine stock at the
Marion county fair in November, but
as his entire force was so busy gath
ering the fall crops it was almost an
impossibility to spare people from
the farm to properly care for the
stock while on exhibition.
AS a starter, thirty head of hogs
have just been butchered, for which
he has had several very fiattering Of
fers, but for the purpose of further
experimenting on the possibilities of
this product he has placed them in
cold storage. On account of the large
pasturage under fence, and covered
with oak, hickory, plum, haw, pine
and other mast-producing trees, the
hogs gather their own living to a
large extent without the expense of
raising feed especially for them, ex-

ments for all ages of fowl, necessary
to carry to completion his plans in
this direction. His fowls, like every
thing else about the premises, are the
best breeds that could be secured,

The revelations of the German LOT
a;on minister and the English foreign
secretary tell how near the madness
If war came to taking possession OF
those most broadly civilized Euro
mean nations, within the past few
weeks.
Prussia is today sending her troops
into Persia in the full panopiy OF
war prepared to wreak destruction
and death.
Italv is in the midst of war with
Turkey, and France ana Morocco are
practically at war.
China is seething and boiling with
the revolutionary spirit and civil war
is being carried on in that country
with all the horrors Of a fatracidai
struggle.
England is carrying on a war OF
correction administered to a far-om
section of Burmah, while the United
States government is continuing its
struggle to subdue the wild men OF
the Philippines.
Even the cloud of Misunderstanding
lowers between this country and Rus
STA, old-time friends, and while war is
not to be expected, yet there are ele-
ments present in the controversy that
may even lead to that dire extremity.
The war spirit is everywhere.
Nor is this ALL The pressure for
armament goes on at an accelerating
pace.
The list of great warships now
building or about to be laid down in
British shipyards totals twenty-four-
Orders are in from Russia, Turkey,
Brazil and Chile.
So great is the pressure that the
British admiralty had lately to dis
close its program prematurely to
quiet public fears that the shipbuild-
ers, because of previous engagements,
would be unable to fulfill their con-
tracts with the government.
From Germany, already building at
a furious pace. comes the report that
an additional ninety million dollars is
to be spent on the navy.
Our own secretary of the navy de-
clares that we ought to have navy

subsidiary vessels, such as destroy

An eminent statesman of England
has very recently prophesied that
within the next six years Germany
and England will be engaged in a
death struggle, and that all of Europe
will be involved in the controversy.
The prophecy may or may not be cor
