Galyanii.

Galvani the hypnotist gave three per-
formances to large audiences at the
opera house this week. If there is a
person in Lancaster that is at all skep-
tical as to the powers of a hypnotist,
if he had attended these performances
and seen the work of Galvani and the
peculiar antics which he caused some
of our citizens to perform, his doubts
would certainly have been removed.
The man is certainly wonder and is
pronounced by people who know to be
as good as anyone in the business. The
performances We're clean and entertain
ing, the subjects were treated kindly
and he only made them do ridiculous
things which kept the audience in an
uprOar of lauhgter during the perfor-
mances.

In The Land OF Flowers.

The Volusia comfy Record published
at Deland Fla. under the caption of
Important Real Estate Deal, has the
following to say of two well known
, Garrard county boys
.Messrs. o, T. Wallace and j. S. Has
eden, representing the United Realty
& Auction Company, of Wilmington
N. c., subdivision specialists, are in
the city and have taken charge of the
beautiful property of Mr.. j. w. Smock,
known as Woodland Park" lying in
the heart of the city, between
Rich, Wisconsin and Clara Aven-
ues, delightful location, and will sell
the lots to the highest bidder on JAN
uarv 3oth, an 1920 A. M. This Com
pany has been successful in handling
high-class subdivisions, and the secret
of their success has been in selling
every lot offered to the highest bidder,
without reserve or by bid.
Messrs. Haselden and Wallace are
very enthusiastic in their praise of De-
Land, and say it is their intention to
make it their headquarters for their
Florida business this season. They will
advertise the sale in all the surrounding
towns and country, and it is their in
tention to secure as large an outside at
tendance at the sale as possible, so that
the sale of property will not only
stimulate local investment and building,
but will be the means of inducing out
siders to cast their lots with US, just as
hundreds have done in the past; and it
is well known fact that once we Sc
cure them, they find DeLand such a
delightful place in every respect that
they at once become one of US for good
and all. The rapid grouth of our city
and its brilliant future prospects,
coupled with the high character of the
tproperty in question, make this sale a
very attractive one, to both the home
builders and the investor. Unusual
prizes will be offered as an advertising
feature.

spent his remaining years. His life
went out as it was spent, peacefully
and calm.
A father dear from us has gone
A voice we loved is stilled.
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filed.
They laid him in the cold cold grave.
When the ground was white with
snow.
But his spirit has gone to heaven above
Though his body rests below.
1t was so hard to give him up
But he was called to go.
And what our grief for him has been,
No one on earth can know.
We must prepare our selves to meet
Him on the other shore.
Where all our sorrows will be past.
Well meet to part no more.

Ten years ago, the U. S. Geological

the camel:
"The cannimal is a sheep Of the des.

It has hump on its back. The canni.
NAL is very patient, and will lie down
and die without a groan, but when 1t
is angry It gets its back up, which is
called taking the hump. The shop
herds of cannimals is called Arabs.
When they live in towns they are

much as It can to last for many days,
Such animals are called accquiducks.
