AN OLD LANDMARK is D,
STROYED

Early Wednesday morning the fire
alarm was sounded and lurid flames
were observed in the western part OF
the city, and it was ascertained that
one of the oldest landmarks" in the
city in the way of a dwelling was a
sheet of flames.
The building was owned by Mr.. f.
A. Gervais, one of our new, valued
and much esteemed citizens.
The building was erected by the
late Capt. Samuel Agnew, forty years
ago, and was for long time occupied
by him.
Mr.. Gervais has a small poultry
farm few miles out on the Blitchton
road, and he and his family happen
ed to be spending the night there on
this particular occasion. expecting
early the next morning to superintend
certain repairs
Mr.. Gervais was expecting to con-
duct an electrical manufacturing
plant near the Seaboard depot, and
had stored In a nearby clubhouse cleo
trieal paraphernalia to the value OF
Several thousand dollars. He esti-
mates his loss at $1,000; insurance,
$4,000.
The fire department did everything
it could to save the building, but the
flames had made too much Roadway
before the alarm was given.

HOW ANY WOMAN CAN CURE IN
DIGESTION

Most stomach remedies are make
shifts-they give relief, but afterward
the stomach is just as weak, just as
unable to digest the food as it was be-
fore.
Women especially should not de-
pend on believers only. Mona Stom-
ach Tablets not only give prompt re-
lief but they put strength and elastic
ity into the stomach walls, and cause
the digestive juices to act naturally.
They do more; they force the di-
gestive organs to supply the blood
with pure nourishment, which is car
ried to the muscles, nerves, brain and
skin. Result: Healthy muscles,
strong nerves, clear head and clean
skin. The Postoffice Drug Store guar

The mountain would not come to

A canal from Silver Springs to
Ocala would make Ocala a seaport
town, and bring the light pleasure
craft of the east coast to anchor in
he Ocala basin. The commercial adj
Iantages of such a canal are past
computation.
Lake Weir is the chief material as
set of Marion county. A canal be-
tween the lake and the Little Okla
Waha would complete water cOmmu-
1ication between the seaport Ocala
and Lake Weir. A railroad linking
the lake with Ocala and Silver
Springs, and a hotel on the lake,
would equip Ocala with the essentials
Of a resort town-the most beautiful
lake in Florida and one of the natural
wonders of the state in Silver
Springs.
A hard road between Ocala and
Lake county, circling the east side of
Lake Weir, would complete the link
ing of the city with the lake, and
would redeem a pledge long dishon-
ored in the breech by the Marion
county commissioners.
With city and lake connected with
tide water, and city, lake and springs
joined by rail and hard road Ocala
would instantly become a seaport and
q resort unsurpassed by any inland
city.
Your congressman is chairman of
the rivers and harbors committee.
His word would dig these canals.
The hotel problem in Ocala Is al
ready solved. The complete and com
Portable Harrington Hall hotel would
be a distinct credit to any city of any
size. A few more men of the public
spirit and enterprise of r. S. Hall
would put Ocala Immediately on the
map
With Ocala transformed into a re-
sort city, the farming lands of Marion
county-the richest in the state
would quickly fill with farmers, who
are not caught by the bunk of ten
acres and freedom" but who are
seeking 100 acres and work.
The situation is so simple that a
man on the outside marvels that it
has not long since been apprehended
and utilized.
