c. E. Woods Moves To
FuStiS.

Mr.. G. E. Woods, who recently left
Richmond TO make his home in DeLand,
Fla, having assumed editotial manage
ment Of the Register Of that city. has
sold his plant and has gone to Eustis,
Fla, where he will have control Of a
newspaper to be started there with a
large capital stock behind the enter
prise. Mr.. Woods had fine prospect at
DeLand, but the offer at Eustis was sucn
a one as seldom comes to a man and Mr..
Woods thought best to accept it. 1t is
needless to say that wherever he goee in
the newspaper field, he will make his
influence felt and it will be on the right
side, too. 1t will always be for the bet
terment Of those with whom he comes
in contact and will be uplifting in every
sense Of that word. Mr. Woods removal
from Kentucky was a loss to the State
and a gain for Florida. His removal
from DeLand is loss 10 that place, but
decided gain for Eustis. Put The
Climax on your mailing list, Clarence,

CHAPTER VII.
In Which the Parson and Mr.. Pepper
Declare Their independence.

Declare Their independence.
That afternoon, when dinner was
over. the Reverend John decided to
make few duty calls. The first of
these he determined should be on the
Peppers.
The Pepper house was situated just
off the main road on the lane leading
over the dunes to the ocean and the
light. It was a small building, its
white paint dingy and storm beaten,
and its little fenced-in front yard dot
ted thickly with elumPs Of slver-leaf
saplings. A sign, nailed crookedly on
a post, informed those seeking such in
formation that within was to be found
"Abishai G. w. Pepper, Tax Collector,
Assessor, Boots and Shoes Repaired"
And beneath this was fastened shin
gle with the chalked notice. salt Hay
for Sale"
The boot and shoe portion Of the
first sign was a relic of other days.
Ryan had been a cobbler once, but it
is diseouraging to wait three or four
weeks while the pair of boots one has
left TO be resoied are forgotten in
corner.
The minister walked up the dusty
lane. lifted the Pepper gate, swung 1t
back on its one hinge, and knocked
at the front door. No one coming IN
answer TO the knock. he tried again.
Then from somewhere in the rear OF
the house came the sound of human
voice.
"Hil" IL called family. Whoever
you be. don't bust that door down.
Come round here"
Ellery came along" as far as the
angle where the ell Joined the main
body of the house. So far as he could
see every door and window was closed
and there were no signs OF life. How
ever. he stepped to the door. green

another knock.

protested the voice. "Come round to

So around went the Reverend John.

And no door. for that matter.
Why exclaimed the voice, III

IT? Here I be at this window"
Sure enough: one Of the windows
on this side OF the house was raised
about six inches at the bottom, the
shade was up. and peering beneath the
sash the minister discerned the ex-
pressive features OF Abishai Pepper
or as much Of those features as the
size of the opening permitted TO De

The old horse. breathing heavily
from his exertions. trotted over the
stretch of yet uncovered fats and soon
mounted the slope OF the beach. The
minister prepared TO alight.

haven't asked me my name"
NO, seldom do more'n once. There
have been times when I'd just as soon

side my figurehead'

Hey? What? oh. no, hoi ho!"
He rocked back and forth on the
seat. The minister's feelings were a

it.

Breakfast had waited nearly an hour
when the minister reached home. Ke-
ziah, also, was waiting and evidently
much relieved at his safe arrival

met him at the back door. Where in
