SMOKING BY THE SMALL BOY
How the Question Was Smoothly and
Easily Settled by One Wise
Father.

"The question Of smoking came up
early in our family. Lawrence has al
ways been greatly attracted by what
he considers manly accomplishments.
If he had been brought up in a Puri-
tan atmosphere, he would have sown
an abundant crop of wild oats-so
great to him is the glamour of the
forbidden thing. II it savors of fash
ion or luxury, 1t becomes almost ir-
reslstible.
"He was only fourteen when we no.
ticed a suggestion Of cigarette smoke
about him.
"Have you been smoking, my
boy? his father asked in a tone I'M
suggestive of rebuke. Lawrence ad-
mitted that he had. I should be sorry

When Gov. Wilson by his lack OF APP
probation alienated George Harvey and
Henry Watterson from the ranks of
those who were supporting him he
made grievous blunder. These men
are not dictators but they are influential
leaders OF Democratic thought, and are
conscientiously interested in the success
of the party. They no longer believe
that Wilson is the man to be entrusted
as the Democratic standard bearer.
Florida Democrats might as well be
diplomatic as well as democratic and
choose Harmon. He is the only Demo
crat posing as presidential possibility
who can lead the party TO victory.

Judgment in the case Of Miss Helen
Hunt VS.. DR.. Lincoln HulIey, president
of John B. Stetson University, DeLand,
has been reversed by the supreme
court Of Florida. In the Volusia Circuit
Court about one year ago Miss Hunt got
verdict for heavy damages against DR..
Hulley for alleged slanderous remarks.
This is the judgment which the supreme
court reversed, but which in closing its
opinion took occasion 10 say; "As
Miss Hunt has not been charged with SO
fragrant a dereliction and upon this
record stands spotless, not only as 10
fact, but also as TO the imputation, the
judgment must be reversed.

MECHANICS ON THE OCEAN
Tradition Governs Them Among
American and English Sailors
and They Never Alter.

In the American and English navies,
as well as in the merchant marines,
are found nicknames that have been
in use since before men dreamed that
there was land on the other side of
the western ocean. Tradition, most
inf1exibie of all rules, governs them,
and they never alter, whether the ship
clears from the Gelden Gate or from
London Docks. Some of the nick
names are of obvious origin; others
seem to gain force by their apparent
lack of reason.
For instance, why should all men
named Wright be called Sinner"
Clark is invariably "Nobpy"; Green Is
Jimmy; and White Is KNOCK
er." "Spud" Murphy explains Itself,
as does Dusty" Miller. Lofty" and
Shorty" do not need to present cards
to their mates when they sign on,
and it is not worth while for the
brunette sailor to resent it when a
friendly chap halls him as Niger
he can't whip the entire crew, one
after the other.
The rigid forms of the quarterback
do not hold during the watch below,
and the captain is the Skipper" and
the first lieutenant is Familiarity
Jimmy the One" On fighting ships
the gunnery lieutenant is "Gunnery

torpedo lieutenant, Torpedo Jack" or

GROWING IN
PUBLIC FAVOR

The political star of Frank Clark has
waxed and now it is waning, and the
political star OF Sam Hilburn is in the
ascendency. Wherever Hilburn is
known, and wherever he is becoming
known, the people like him and recog-
nize in him the material for the making
OF an able representative.
Mr.. Clark's recent activities, which
have been usual with him on the verge
of elections, will hardly be sufficient to
induce the people TO again entraSt him
with The commission which he has held
for The past eight years. MIR. Clark will
learn, as others have discovered, that
the only way for representative to re,
tain the good will of the people is TO be
constant in season and out of season
The people are long suffering and en-
dure much. They are the most lenieni
OF masters until patience ceases TO be a
virtue; but when they turn they turn with
will that no man can Withstand. Mr..
Clark's fndefenSibe vote on the Payne
Aldrich tariff bill and more recently his
vote in favor OF the Sherwood dollar a
day pension bill constitute enough for
the people TO recall him. If a congress
man or other public servant is defeated
by the people he generally has only
himself TO blame. AS long as he stands
by the people the people will stand by
him. fIflburn is the kind of man who
will stand by. We believe the Second
District Democracy is going to give him
the opportunity of showing how faithful
he can be to such trust.

Monday was triumphal day for Hen
ry M. Flagler. He rode into Key West
on the first passenger train ever entering
that city over the rails of the Florida
East Coast railway extension for which
he has spent years of toll and worry be-
sides millions OF dollars. Upon his ar
rival he was presented by President j..
r. Parrott on behalf of the railway en-
ployees fac-simile of a Western Union
telegram, made in solid gold, bearing
the congratulations of the employees
upon the consummation of the great
achievement. The gift was beautiful
expression of a liberal and loyal senti-
ment.

aThe editor OF the Tropical Sun al
West Palm Beach tells the story of the
recent political barbecue at Pompano in
verse. When it comes TO Senator Hill
burn he says;
Then Samuel Hilburn took the floor
And faced US with an open eye;
He spoke like one who'd talked before,
Could tell you where and what and
why.
A lawyer keen OF rising fame,
And with record white as snow,
He feared no charge foe might name,
And none was made at Pompano.

ExpIanatlon Of coIorg d leaves.

In extremely moist atmosphere the
color of the leaves are not usually very
bright, as in England. And in very
dry climates the leaves dry up sud
denly, and their skin, which is very
thick to prevent the escape of moist.
ure, is not sufficiently trf nsparent to
allow the color to be seen beneath. In
regions where the autuml foliage is
most vivid we find that an average sea
son produces the most exquisite colors.
Neither very dry nor very wet sum
mer will result in much brilliancy.

SLEEVE POCKET FOR THE FAN
innovation Favored by Paris Seems to Presage Return of Such Re-
 ceptacles to Fashion.

During the past year the pocket has been slowly and steadily regaining it's position in woman's toilettes and even so daring an innovation as a sleeve pocket has now been made possible.
 This is quite the latest fashion note from Paris, the new form of pocket being chiefly intended as receptacle for the tiny fan, which is so much in vogue at present.
 The pocket is usually inserted in the sleeve just below the elbow, the aper- ture being cleverly concealed with lace or chiffon, so that it's presence is not even suspected until the fair wearer suddenly produces miniature embroidered fan, apparently out of her arm
 The fan pocket is to be found on either sleeve of smart afternoon gown and in some costumes one or other of the cuffs is frequently pro- yided with pocket after the same style.
 Although originally intended only to hold the fan, as in China, the sleeve pocket has been found so convenient that it is also used to hold lace handkerchief, and there is no doubt that it's dimensions will increase when sleeves assume large proportions.

BRACELET IS COMING BACK S
With the EIbow-Length Sleeve This s-.s Ornament Is Almost Sure to
 Have Access of Favor.

The bracelet is to regain the favor which it once held. Modern dress, with its popular elbow-length sleeve for day wear, adapts itself ad- mirably to the display of the brace let This is the main reason why they should become popular again.
 Bracelets of fine workmanship set with jewels are bound to find favor.
 The designs for these are borrowed from those of old Egypt and Persia.
 The snake armlets which are asso- ciated with Cleopatra will be worn, especially with evening dress.
 Heavy armlets two inches in width are patterned after those worn by the Sabine soldiers when Tarpceia sold the Roman city, tempted by their gilt tering glory.
 Massive is most descriptive of these bracelets. They are worn on the up per portion of the arm above the el' bow,
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1912-05-17
Needlework Note.

Damask centerpieces are quite the style nowadays. Many clever needle women outline the flowers or design of the damask with a dainty stitch so as to form a border around the cir cular piece, and with an edging of heavy lace this makes as effective a centerpiece as could be desired.
 Damask, however, is by no means cheap, but if one can make num- her of such pieces from old linen with only the trifing expense of the lace one can have one of these center. pieces.
