CARLYLE and Indigestion.

Carlyle suffered from what he called
biNousness during the greater part Of
his life. but Sir Richard Quain, one Of
his physicians. has left It on record
that this was largely due to oyerin-
diligence in gingerbread Apparently
Carlyle considered indigestion an es
sential part in, the makeup Of reform
er, for in his critical examination OF
alleged portraits Of John Knox he re-
jects one expressly on the ground that
the individual represented was too ob
yiously "eupeptic"

FLORIDA REPUBL|-
CANS REVOLT

Jacksonville. Fla, May 10.-A state
convention to choose Roosevelt dele
gates to the republican national con-
vention in Chicago was called to order
here today. 1t is declared by the re-
bellious Florida republicans that the
state convention held at Palatka on
February was steam roller affair
and that the choice of a delegation
instructed for Taft does not represent
the real sentiment of the Florida re-
publicans.
Leaders in today's convention is.
sued a statement in which it was de.
clared that the dictation and rule of
the "officeholders trust" has become
intolerable and that the time has come
for the republican masses to take
things in their own hands"
1t is said that similar revolts will be
stirred up in all of the Southern states
and that contesting delegations
pledged to Roosevelt will be sent from
all over the South to Chicago.

Clean Up About the House,

While we are thinking over the
blessings and beauties of warm
weather, there is another side to it,
not so attractive. but far more impor.
tant and just as serious as the posi-.
bility of a short crop owing to the
backward growing season. That is the
diseases the summer time brings. The
first thing we ou"ht to think of right
now is "clean up" Not so much the
regular spring housecleaning-some of
that might be very well dispensed with
but cleaning up on the outside. The
mud holes left by the winter rains

POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

Happy is the man who doesn't want
what he can't get.
If a girl really objects to being
kissed-well, onions are cheap.
The world is a treadmill for all
excepting the drivers.
Every married man is boss in his
own home when his wife's away.
Business is improving. The clock
makers are putting on more hands.
Lots of men follow the races-prob
ably because they can't get ahead OF
them.
The oftener a baseball player goes
on a bat the lower his batting aver
age will be.
Even if woman has no use for a
man she can be flattered if he pre-
tends to be jealous of her.
Every time a married man loses
money he has a chance to regret that
his wife didn't spend it foolishly.

doesn't need to hide his light under a
bushel, because it cant even be seen
