DEATH OF JUNlUS ORVIL CAR
PENTER

Special Cor Ocala Banner:
Junius Orvil Carpenter, the infant
son of Mr.. and Mrs w. O. Carpenter
of Oak, died at 10 o'clock Monday
morning. May 19, 1913, after a linger-
ing illness of several weeks. Though
but a babe, he had won the love and
tender objection of everyone, and his
demise leaves an aching void in the
loving hearts of those left behind. A
physician was in attendance. and all
was done to stay deaths effacing fin
gers that loving and attentive minds
could conceive of, but it was Gods
will to take this life in it's innocence
and purity unto himself
A cOncourse of bereaved relatives
and .sympathizing friends followed
the little casket to its last resting
place in the Anthony cemetery. The
funeral services were conducted by
Rev. \. B. Plummer, whose discourse
was fraught with sympathy and con-
dolence for the grief-stricken parents.

Lawyers Fees.

Do professional men earn as much now as formerly? We hear of big doe tor bills and huge attorney fees, but is the average as good? Jefferson. who never turned around without noting the fact in his dairy, has left record of his legal fees. He was earning $3,000 very shortly after he began to practice in what today would be called a village. I have the word of former Attorney General w. U. Hensel for the statement that James Buchanan, Penn sylvanta's only president of the United States, earned an average of $6,5o0 G year for the first five years he prac- ticed law in Lancaster. At the end of that period he was making S2O00 n year. How many young lawyers in America today do that well? Lancas- ter at the time when Buchanan was doing this was town of but n few thousand people. And a dollar when Monroe was president bought as much as several dollars would buy now.- Philadelphia Public Ledger.

Use the Toothbrush.

The regular use of the toothbrush is necessary not only to remove the acid incrustations that eat holes in the teeth, but also to sweep away the germs of many terrible diseases. These find the necks of the teeth an ideal nesting place. They multiply a million fold in a few hours unless washed away; then they go down the throat, enter the lungs, the stomach, the eusta- chian tubes and the passages behind the nose. There they cause consump- tion, diphtheria, earache, catarrh, bron- chitis, tonsilitis-in fact, 1t would be difficult to say with certainty what dis eases may not arise from the germs that have grown upon the teeth. It is now considered almost certain that many cases of appendicitis have this as their origin. Hence there is no process of the toilet so important as that of brushing the teeth.-Naw York World.

Petitions to the Czar.

In Russia there is a court of peti- tions through which appeals are ad- dressed to the emperor. The court was originally founded in the reign of Ivan ". in the sixteenth century. When Catherine the Great ascended the throne she intended to receive all appeals personally, but the task soon passed beyond her powers. The Czar Paul as a young man tried to initiate Catherine's example, and he had a large yellow iron box attached to one of the ground floor windows of the Winter palace. at St Petersburg, into which petitions were dropped. The box was periodically opened and the contents submitted to the. czar. This method of receiving petitions was also found to be unavoidable. The extent to which the subjects of the czar avail themselves of the courts privileges may be gathered from the fact that us many as 65,oO0 odd petitions have been presented in a year.

Roger Crabb, who lived in seven teenth century England, was persist ent faster. He sold off his stock in trade-he was "haberdasher of hats" and took up his residence in hut near Ickenham, where he lived on farthings a week. He described his experiences In a pamphlet entitled "The English Hermit; or, The Won der of the Age" "Instead of strong drinks and wines," says the eccentric Roger, "I give the old man cup of water, and instead of mutton and rab- bit I give him broth thickened with
 bran and pudding made with bran and turnip leaves. chopped together" Wig orous health was the result, and his abstention from food was regarded with such suspicion that on one occa- sion he narrowly escaped being burn ed alive as a wizard.

The Kick of the Cook.

nSring one of his first tours in the United States Paderewski enjoyed d dinuer which was equal to anything he could have expected in one of the best Parisian restaurants. lie was so surprised and pleased that he sent his thanks and compliments to the chef.
 A few years later, happening to be in the same city, he again went to that restaurant. The meal he got was still far above the average, but was not so good as before. However, on the occa- sion of third visit he again tried the same place. The food was uninterest- ing from the beginning of the meal to the end.
 He asked the head waiter whether the former chef had left. He had not left, the waiter informed him, and, on being pressed for an explanation of the change in the quality of the meals. he said

4 Cataplasm.

An airy young doctor settled in a village where an old physician had long practiced. One day the two were brought together at a consultation. and on this occasion the young NJ. D. es- sayed to extinguish the old man with his preponderosity of knowledge. He accordingly began to rattle or Latin phrases and French idioms in n man. her that startled the old gentleman.
 Yes" unused the old man meditn- tatively as he rubbed his chin, that's so, that's so. But what do you think of cataplasm for this ease?'
 "A-a what?" calculated the new doctor, completely dumfounded.
 "A cataplasm," was the reply.
 "Well, I am not familiar with that mode of treatment, though I've seen 1t advertised. It's something new. isn't itYr
 "New2 Great gracious, nor' ex- claimed the old physician, thoroughly enjoying the joke. "A cataplasm means simply a poultice. 1t always has meant poultice and probably al- ways will. l."-London Mail.

Different Names For Waves.

They have curiously different names for waves about the coast of Great Britain. The Peterhead folk call the large breakers that fall with a crash on the beach by the grim name of ''Norrawa (Norway) carpenters" On the low Lincolnshire coast, as on the southwestern Atlantic fronting shore of these islands, the grandly long un- broken waves are known as rollers" !" Among east Anglians heavy surf, tumbling in with an offshore wind or in calm, is oslled by the expressive name of a ''slog," while we'll marked swell, rolling in independently of any blowing, Is called ''home." "There Is no wind," Suffolk fisherman will say. but a nasty home on the beach," Suf- folk men also speak of the "bark' of the surf, and sea covered with foam is spoken of as feather white" The foam itself is known as spoon drift" So, in the vernacular, we have it ''The sea was all a feather white with spoon drift" #..

Aid of shoutlnu In War.

Lord Wolseley. who was in charge of the advance sap close to the re- doubts at Sebastopol, once attributed the success of many of the engage ments in the Crimean war to the sim pie expedient of shouting. "I don't be- Iieve," he said, that we had twenty five fellows the last time we attacked. We were shouting. shouting, shouting, and afterward I could not speak for four days. while some of the officers lost their voices for a week. We fired from behind heap of dead bodies, and told the bugler to blow his very loudest. while we cheered, and so the enemy thought we had plenty of men in the rear" The trick is as old as Gideon. and the Homeric hero was "boe agathos"-good fin shouting.

The Cheery DandeIion.

Of all the merry, happy go lucky fiowers.the yellow dandelion takes the prize. 1t is "bon camarade" with the rich and the poor. It's saucy, impudent little face greets you from the center of your choicest flower bed, and it smiles cheerily up at you from the dusty highway. In the crowded alley. reeking with filth, 1t bravely opens its yellow petals. Anywhere and every where that bit of earth can accumu- late there appears the little dandelion. A veritable street gamin, how it lives and how it thrives Is a mystery much like its human brothers. Close to the pavements, under the horses feet snuggled in areaways, laughing from the gutter, the cheerful little rascal wins your love In spite Of yourself. And out in the country what glorious times they all have together, starring the grass with golden stars, the joy of the children and the curse of the gar dener!-Suburban Life.

Londonnra, HsIplen.naa..

It was not the brightly polished boots of the Londoners that most impressed an old Canadian whom I took to see the sights of the metropolis some time ago. 1t was his first sight of us, and he was frank. He confided to me that he was most struck by our general helplessness" and illustrated his mean ing by telling me that in the town he came from the lawyer thought 1t no shame to carry sack of -four through the street, the doctor might be seen spending his leisure by painting his house or the parson engaged with spade and pick like any navvy. And now my Canadian found he had arrived In country where a man could not even carry his own portmanteau to the sta ton. Of course defended our British point of view and discoursed of iron conventions, but could not avoid feel ing that Canadian sentiment is health fer than our own in these things.-Lon- don Chronicle.

A Monntar Rodent

The Brazilian capybara is large, stoutly built rodent. Imagine n rat weighing 2S0 pounds with huge head, an upper lip foot long and close set eyes and one has an Idea of the beast. He is the largest of the rodent tribd and has harsh, coarse hair. more like bristles than fur. This hair is mixed black and yellow, of dingy appearance. Tn has native haunts the capybara has huge, fat stomach which almost drags on the ground. He is a water loving animal and can dive and stay under for eight or ten minutes at n time. The jaguar of South America preys upon the capybara, and the In- dians kill him for his flesh. which when smoked is said to be as delicious as a Kentucky ham, although 1t has n certain musky flavor. The capybara makes sound when alarmed some what between dogs bark and a pigs grunt. He was once called the hydro choerus, or water hog. and lives on a vegetable diet.

Wild

There is a noticeable difference in color and markings between the wild cats of North and South America. Both animals are of about the same size, but the South American cat is covered with round black spots much like those of the leopard, but smaller in size. These spots contrast strongly with the sur rounding fur, which is of grayish white color, very different from the reddish color of the North American wildcat. The fur of the South Ameri- can wildcat is not so thick as that of his North American cousin, but the skins are said to dress well and make good robes and rugs.-Fur News.
