The Palatka news and advertiser., 1915-05-21

Something absolutely new IN fa-
latka has been achieved by the Wo-
mans Club in securing for the Fair
tonight and Saturday, the presence
of the famous Hindoo magician and
seer, Swami Rathjub Pundarninlab.
This wonderful oriental mystic has
kindly consented to read the future
of limited number of persons Fri
day night, so those desiring an in
sight into their future, either from
curiosity or for business or sentimen-
tai reasons, will do well to be on
hand early
Attorney J. V. Walton spent Tues
dav at Hastings on business which
necessitated his seeing many. people.
Said he to The News: "While there
three different gentlemen engaged IN
potato growing told me that it was
their purpose to move to Palatka and
make this city their homes. They
will still continue in the business of
potato farming, but will carry on
their operations from Palatka. They
stated that they liked Palatka for
business and residence purposes bet
ter than any town in Florida"
Said Superintendent Cottingham
Yesterday: 81 think it a matter
worthy of note and commentator
that nearly all the rural school teach
ers of Putnam county, have since the
close of their schools, entered some
one of the numerous. normal training
schools, public and private in the
state, and are trying to improve
their minds and gain knowledge
which will enable them to improve
their work. 1t at least shows that
our country school teachers are not
lazy"
Some one up at Tallahassee has
been sending marked copies of the
Senate Journal of recent date con-
tanning the vote on certain local
"No Fence Law" with Senator Mid
dleton's name underlined as one who
voted for the measure. This Will
please some of his constituents, but it
will also displease number of 9th
ers. While on this line it might
he a matter of news to Putnam coun-
tv people to learn that when a GER
tain Lee county local "No Fence"
law was up for consideration in the
House last Saturday that Mr.. McKen-
zie of this county was the only mem
Der of the House whose vote was re-
corded against it.
A. R. Gaudin, for the past eleven
wears a much esteemed resident OF

in which she desires to thank all

last illness of her father, and for all

Our old friend John Mallem is be.
ing quite severely criticised by Ger.
tain people for his disposition to re-
cede from a position he not long age
took with reference to the efficacy Of
a certain brand of dog mango soar
as a cure for badness. 1t will be re
membered that Johns unsolicited rec
ommendation of this mango cure ant
his citation of a case where the soaT
had actually grown whiskerS on thu
back of Mexican dog, gave the soal
an unprecedented run among tht
bald-headed patrons of Albert Brown
ing's barber shop The fact tha
John is now having his badness
treated daily with a South African
hair tonic, by this same tonsorla
artist, is what has led to the charg<
THAI perhaps John is not really The
unsophisticated advocate that he has
BON looked upon, but that instead ht
has sold out any interests he may
have had in the dog mango remedy
and invested heavily in this South AT
rican tonic. Certain it is that where
John leads in an effort to remedy
badness, there are hundreds of Pa.
latkans willing to follow. The News
trusts that before the public unite'
in any censure of this good man thai
il will look into the case carefully
The News believes in the sincerity OF
John Mallem, it has noted the grad
ual accumulation of soft and silky
covering of hair on the apex of his
coco where less than a wear ago he
began cultivation for a natural Gov
