VICTOR HUGo's PROPHECY

-Four hundred years ago the hui
man race has left its plain vestige
behind. We enter now upon great
centuries.
The sixteenth century will be
known as the age of painters, the
seventeenth will be termed the age
of writer's, the eighteenth the age
Of philosophers, the nineteenth the
age of apostles and prophets.
ITO satisfy the nineteenth century
it is necessary TO be the painter of
the sixteenth, the writer Of the seven
teenth, the philosopher Of the
eighteenth, and it is necessary to
have the innate and holy love of hs-
manity which constitutes an apostle
and open up a prophetic vista into
the future.
In the twentieth century, war will
be dead. the scaffold will be dead,
luminosity will be dead, aristocracy
will be dead, but man will live.
Fer there will be ore country
that contry the whole earth; for
ali there will be but one hope-that
hope the whole heaven.
"All hail, then. to that noble cen
fury, which shall own our children,
and which our children shall inherit.
Victor Hugo.

PERSONAL LOYALTY

to a pinch, an ounce of loyalty is
worth pound of cleverness. If you
must vilify, condem and eternally
disparage, why, resign your position,

little girl of Harrison county, KY, be-
gan life and first ventured from the
home nest as Elizabeth Byrd, and
when yet quite young she married
Bud Martin. When Mr. Martin died
she married Ed Grow, farmer When
the time came TO change nests she al

SAMUEL A. RAWLS

Another good one has left us. Sam
Rawls was truly a Prince of Natures
Noblemea.
Big-hearted and generous even to
his own detriment, he could number
his friends by the thousands. The
preponderance of his life was spent
here in Jacksonville, and it mattered
not whether in poverty or affluence,
he was always the companionable
lovable kind of a man.
Up to a year ago, Mr. Rawls was
the embodiment of all the essentials
that go to make up the ideal MAN
He had never tasted medicine, nor
had he ever been forced to drink the
bitter dregs in the poisoned chalice of
defeat in whatever he undertook in
business life
Mr.. Rawls was one of the first to
enlist in the late war with Spain, and
a detachment of his comrades escort
ed his body to Fernandina. where it
was laid to rest. These with thous-
ands of others can now say with us:
Green be the turf above thee,
This friend of better days
To know thee was to love thee,
To name thee but to praise"

VICE ALMOST IN READINESS

The first "all air route" for pas
senger service to be established in the
world, will be put in operation De-
tween st. Petersburg and Tampa the
first of January This was finally de-
.termined here today when T. w. Ben
DIST. of the Benoist Aircraft Company

boat line and the establishment OF
school for aviators here. A guaran-
tee of $4,000 has been raised here to
insure the company against loss IN
operating the boats to Tampa. The
first boat will leave here New Years
morning, carrying four passengers.
The rivalry for tn edistinction OF
taking the first ride is keen and as
the four seats are to be sold at
auction it is expected that the bid
ding will be lively. The proceeds OF
this sale are to be used to erect har-
bor lights at the entrance to the yacht
basin.
The boats. are to run twice each
way a day and will make the trip from
here to Tampa in IS to 20 minutes.
Mr.. Benoist is much satisfied with

A CHRISTMAS GREETING

General George Byron Loud, past
department commander of the Grand
Army of the Republic Of New York
Tity, who is we'll known in Ocala, and
spends some OF his vacations here,
sending out the following Christ
mas greeting to his friends:
May Christmas bloom with a beau
y and fragrance that neither spring
Tor summer knows.
May love abound in every heart,
music in every soul, g!adness in ev-
cry eye, the thrill and clasp c. cheer
n every hand: may we hang any
LIQUIDS in our lives with rainbows,
hat We may see only the bright and
oyous things, and every weed shall
De a flower may we turn with CRATE
:ul hearts to that fount of every bless
ing in this, the one human festival
hat is closer to the heart than all the
1rotherhoods OF the elect.
"Nav We cultivate the spirit OF
Good will to men as the expression
Of that good will of heaven which
orqrted itself in the Angel song and
predicted the coming OF perfect peace
and ioy. May we learn anew the dl-
rine-ess Ct sympathy as We catch the
reelected smile of someone, from the
door of whose sorrow we have rolled
0wav the stone. May we stand, not
alone on some bleak, for off mountain
seat. but grouped together in heart
touch among the foothills and in the
cu~sh.3y valleys Of fellowship and
comradcs,2ip and peace.
where in all humanity is there
greater longing, dearer expectation
and sweeter hope than in the heart OF
child on Christmas morning? In
all the spheres there is no music half
so sweet as their laughing shouts
ever their gifts. In all the earth there
is no look so sad as that called forth
by the empty stocking; nowhere in
the world do the tender Yuletide an
gels hover more lovingly than over
the heads of the waits and strays with
empty hearts and hands. May we
make the day to one at least of the
poorest of them an opportunity for
glimpse of something more cheerful
than the sordid garnet or the filthy
street.
MAY we in our every act and
thought give TIE warm human touch
which stimulates and inspires our be-
lief in the goodness of the world and
which is truly a Christmas lesson;
and when the twilight falls on Christ
mas day we will know the fullest,
sweetest significance of Christmas.
Think beautiful thoughts and set
them adrift
Ont on the Infinite tide:
They may meet and touch and tender
~ bring
To the sick and weary and sorrowing
A solace so long denied. +"
