Editor Bob Holly of the Sanford
Herald. is just up from an attack of
dengue fever, which he styles the
"damyou" fever. This reminds us
that Ocala has never had an original
case of yellow fever, dengue fever, or
any fever of kindred type. One or
two patients have come in from 9TH
er places with pronounced types of
these fevers, but they have never
been communicated to others. If they
are originated by mosquitoes ours
must be harmless kind of pests.

MR.. eRYAN's ANSWER TO THE
WORLD

Although stating that the World:
offer to pay him $4,000 if he would
quit his tent lectures and devote his
entire time to the duties of his office
was unworthy of notice, Mr.. Bryan
did notice it, and made the following
answer:
"A part OF this criticism is mali
Icious, a part of it is partisan, and a
part of it is based on misinformation.
That which is malicious will answer
itself; that which is partisan will be
accepted as such; that which is bas-
ed on misinformation will cease when
the critics are better informed
The World comes back with the fol-
lowing rejoinder
IF this were all, the answer might
be sufficient, but in Judging human
conduct there are considerations quite
as important as partisanship, malice
and misinformation. There is good
taste: there is propriety: there is pre-
cedent, and there is dignity. Opinion
that is based on these things cannot
be ignored, no matter what may be
said of partisanship, malice and mis-
information
Mr.. Bryan has travelled around the
world enough to know the proprieties
and the dignifed attitude one should
pursue while holding a high cabinet
office. Mr.. Bryan's tent performance
CRATES harshly on the finer sensibili-
ties of the great mass of the Ameri-
can people, and his explanation that
he is doing it because he wants the
money" has offended the proprieties
in a worse degree. Their criticism of
his conduct is done more in sorrow
than in anger.

EAT CHOCOLATE WITH FRUlJ
Ideal Food Combination According to
Writer Who Claims TO Know
Whereof He Speaks.

Some silly things have recently
been said about chocolate, which have
attempted with some air Of authority
to discount its value as an article OF
food. says the Lancet. Practical ex-
perience of course long ago decided
in favor OF the view that chocolate is
a good sustaining food, apd this find
ing Is not surprising. having regard to
the food substances which well-made
chocolate contains.
Chocolate has been employed for
its staying powers and its nutrltive
properties with considerable success
In army maneuvers.
Chocolate can only do herm, In COM
mon with all good foods, when eaten
to excess. Chocolate contains from
q to about so per cent OF sugar.
from 20 to As per cent Of fat, from 4
to IL per cent of heterogeneous matter.
from 2 to 3 per cent Of mineral mat
ter. and about 0.75 per cent of theo-
bromine. 1t is therefore sweetmeat,
food and stimulant.'
Thus far the Lancet. Now comes
DR.. ]. Sim Wallace. an eminent Lon
don dentist, with letter asserting
that chocolate does a vast amount OF
harm, especially to the teeth, by being
eaten between meals and before going
to bed. He says 1t should be eaten
toward the end Of a meal and should
always be followed by fresh fruit.
