CALL FOR BUCKWHEAT
COMES FROM TEXAS

Rock Islanders who are prone TO
think they must go elsewhere to get
exclusive" things will be surprised to
know that orders for eatables are be-
ing received by a local grocery store
from far off San Antonio, Tex. A Rock
Island lady, who incidentally spends
most of her time travelling, now in
America, now in Europe and then
again in other parts of the world, has
formed a desire for certain brand Of
buckwheat which she has been able to
procure only in this city. On leaving
here sometime ago for her ranch in
Texas, she took with her a five-pound
package of the flour and has evidently
used 1t all. Today the local grocer
from whom she gets the delicacy, re-
ceived an order to forward 90 pounds
more by express at once.
What is true of Rock Islands supply
of exclusive eatables is true of other
! lines of merchandise as well
And still people go elsewhere to buy
and think they are too CLASSY" fol-

Copper Comes Back With Trick That

Bang! Bang! And just like that, two
derby hats, once possessive of some

from the field of worth, fading into val

magistrate-you can imagine how an

that, stalked out of the police station,
the scene of the carnage of "cadies"
wearing a deeply furrowed frown, hid
den somewhat by cap which was
loaned by a friend. Yesterday the
magistrate was indignant, and right
eously so, for his hat had been pilfered
from the nail on the wall, and he had
to go home wearing a rather decrepit
bonnet.

CHARACTER AND PURPOSE OF
HIS WORK.

A legislator should be judged, not
by the number of bills he introduces,
or towards the passage of which he
contributes, but their character, pur'
pose and provisions. Thus judged, The
legislative career of Senator ournoy
exhibits a record of which not only
he, but those who by their votes
chose him for their Senator, may well
and Justly be proud.
The bill providing for the taxation
of inheritances, requests, ETC., was
one Of the chief features of Senator
Flournoy's legislative experience. Cit
ing the salutary example of many OF
the states which have enacted similar
laws, he gave his best talents to a
supreme effort to stregthen Florida's
financial status by extending the tax
ing power to subjects OF taxation
more Abe to bear the burdens OF
government than the average house
holder, with little property subject to
taxation, except his modest home. The

measure passed the Senate was Ger
