great tented field, and thousands of

Columbus. O.--The question, Did
Gen. John H. Morgan, the dashing Con.
federate raider, tunnel his way out of
q cell in the Ohio penitentiary while q
prisoner Of war. or did his guards al.

discussion since the war of the SIX
ties, has not been settled by tearing
away the cell blocks in which General
Morgan was held.
Partial exploration Of the air shaft
under the Morgan cell by prison OH.
Gals failed to reveal the evidences Of
the tunnel to the satisfaction Of those
who contend that the noted raider was
allowed to pass out Of the front gate Of
the big institution. The explorations
30 far conducted, 1t is asserted, fail
to show that the tunnel under the Nor.
gan cell had any outlet or that It ex.
tended for any considerable distance.
The cell is being .orn down, togeth.

One thing especially noticeable
in getting the news of the state
is the number of places where
money has been voted for new
school houses. Pinellas is not
the only county which recently
has voted large sums for exten-
sion of the schools. Nearly every
county is preparing to spend a lot
Of money. New teachers are be-
ing employed as we'll as new
buildings erected and prepare
tons are being made to take care
of the increased number Of pupils
expected in school in the fall

And conspicuous among the
communities charging and inn
proving their educational facili-
ties in the city of Lakeland where
our people quite recently by an
overwhelming majority, voted a
$4,000 bond issue to be expend-
ed in new school buildings to
provide for the needs OF Our rap
idly growing school population.
No reactionaries here along the
lines of education. We are all
progressives, and no community
can give to the world better
proof OF the high quality of its
people than this Of taxing itself
to the full limit needed to give
its children ample facilities for
the education without which they
are handicapped all through life.

FLOWERS IN THE HOUSEHOLD
Simple Methods That viii Keep Them
Alive, Fragrant, and a Pleasure
for Many Days.

To make flowers last a week or
more, four things are necessary. First,
do not try to arrange them the mo-
ment you get them, but put them in a
pail of water for a few hours, SO that
every stem will be under water up to
the flower. Second, cleanse the vase
thoroughly before putting in the flow
ers and change the water every day,
Third, the cooler you keep the flowers
the longer they will last. II you are
too busy in the morning to enjoy them
or have to &c out for the afternoon, do
not leave them in the living-room, for
they are not used to such a tempera-
ture. Every night put the vase in a
cool place, or better still, plunge the
stems up to the flowers in a pail Of
water. Fourth, cut about a quarter Of
an inch off each stem in the morning,
1t is more trouble to do this under
water, but it pays. II Q cut the
stems in the ordinary way air bubbles
get into the stems and impede the talk
ing in of Observation-Disclosures.

gathered on street n and in
cafes, and their conversation was
only Of the calamity-of what might
be done to alleviate the suffering.
Representatives of tornado insur-

Germs and storage companies, who
might be readily and rightfully ex-
pected to reap a rich harvest follow
ing the assault Of the wind fiend,
found their work extremely distaste-
full and we're 10th to press their point.
Men of business Importance were
seer to walk the streets softly and
with downcast faces, their thoughts
everywhere but with their affairs.
In the face of all the CHASTITY and
terrible manifestations of a calamity
which is attracting the attention and
concern of the whole world, there is

which hangs as a pail over stricken

Tho Effect of Coffee on Highly Organ

81 have been a coffee user for
years, and about two years ago got
into a very serious condition of dys.
pepsia and Indigestion. 1t seemed to
me l would fly to pieces. / was SO
nervous that at the least noise l was
distressed, and many times could not
straighten myself up because of the
pain"
""ca is just as injurious, because it
contains caffeine, the same drug found
in coffee.
MY physician told me / must not
eat any heavy or strong food, and or.
dered a diet, giving me some medi
cine. l followed directions carefully,
but kept IN using coffee and did not
get any better.
Last winter my husband, who was
away on business, had Postum served
to him in the family where he board
ed. He liked it SO we'll hat when he
came home he brought some with him
We began using it and I found it
most excellent.
While l drank it my stomach never
bothered me in the least, and / got
over my troubles. When the
Postum was gone we returned to cot
fee, then my stomach began to hurt
me as before, and the con
dftions came on again.
THAT showed me exactly what was
the cause Of the whole trouble, so
quit drinking coffee altogether ant
kept on using Postum. The old trou

turned"
