Often the hunt for a rich wife ends
when the man meets a oma that
uses Electric Bitters. Her strong

sleep: her elastic step from firm, free

STATE UNIVERSITY

We call attention to the advertise
ment of the University of Florida in
this issue. This institution has made
excellent progress during. the past
three or four years. The attendance
has increased from 1913 in 1909 to more
than 301 in 1912. There is no pri-
mary or 'grammer school in connection
with the university. 1t is a strictly
high grade institution and is attended
BY mature young men. The university
embraces four colleges and the agri-
cultural experiment station and the
extension division Gncluding farmers
Institutes, correspondence courses, lee
ture bureau, etc., and the school of
graduate studies.
Let our Florida people patroniZe
their home institutions and not yield
to the lad that change of climate is
necessary. There is no better climate
in the world than our Florida fall,
winter and spring. If change of lati-
tude is ever desired, it is during our
summer. Let US be loyal to our state
and to our home colleges. Let. our
boys. make their lasting friendships
among their own fellow citizens, who
are to be the leaders in state affairs in
the years to come.

There is more catarrh IN this sec
ton of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incura-
Bile. For a great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease and
prescribed local remedies, and by con-
Stantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co, Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t is taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful
1t acts directly on the blood and mu-
cous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case
it fails to cure. Send for circulars
