Of Rev. Geo. R. Stuart, who is to
lecture at the Methodist church
next Tuesday night the Atlanta Jour-
nal says: "For years Rev. George
Stuart has been with Rev. Sam P.
Jones in the evangelistic work, and is
a good match for this marvellous re-
former and preacher. Mr.. Stuart is
a remarkable man. His wealth of
thought and expression is surprising
His words burst from his soul like a
great torrent from it's mountain
source and sweeps over his crowds,
stirring them, moving them, uproot-
ing them. He is wise in the choice
of illustrations and master in their
use. Sam Jones' genius was never
better displayed than in the selection
of this gifted and eloquent Tennes-
seean for his associate"

the monthly publication issued by the

be good news to the people of Palat-
ka, people who know the men who |

business. The New South Farm & |
Home Company is the biggest boost
ing concern in all florida, and its
