the National Capital and the organ OF
the old soldiers and the &. A. r., has
Just had prepared new map OF florl-
da. the State which is now the center

the sudden changes from torrid heat IN

who want home where the climate Is
healthful and opportunities are offered
to earn livelihood or acquire wealth
under the most favorable conditions.
The population of Florida increased
nearly so per cent. in the last census
decade, and will double in the next.
This map The National Tribune has
had compiled from the latest surveys
of the Government engineers and from
the most recent data of the Postofiice
Department and Autographed in three
colors on fine quality of plate paper,
% by 30 inches.
This map will be sent free to any one
who will write to The National Tribune
and enclose 7 cents in stamps for post
age.
Whether you own property in any
part of Florida, or are merely interest
ed in the rapid developement that is
going on in the Peninsula State, this
map will be of both interest and value
to you, and all you have to do to get
it, is to send I cents in stamps, merely
to defray the cost of mailing, and the
map will be sent to you at once Sc
curely rolled in stiff tube.
