LIFELONG Thrift HABIT

If this habit of thrift is to be a whole
some, sweet and fruitful one. it must be
acquired while the body is healthy and
the mind vigorous. 1t must not he dy

done when the earning power is greatest
the resisting power strongest, and The flu

he allows to grow become 50 fixed that,

Old age may compel thriftiness because
there is nothing more TO waste but the

energy. money, or property, for which the
best years of life have been given.

The Blood is the Life.

The blood is the life because it is the nutri-
tive fluid If the blood becomes very impure,
the bones, the muscles and other parts of the
body are impaired and finally become diseased.
Slighter variations in the quality of the blood,
such as are often brought about by breathing
the bad air of unventilated rooms, have equally
sure though less plain ill effects on the ner-
vous system.
Persons that have any reason to believe that
their blood is not pure should begin to take
Hoods Sarsaparilla at once. This medicine
has done more than any other in cleansing, en-
riching and revitalizing the blood and giving
strength and tone to all the organs and func-
tions.
If you want to be entirely satisfied, insist on
having Hoods. Accept no substitute. l.:

room was handsomely decorated with
southern smilax and palms, and all the
tables and booths were made attractive
by the artistic arrangements of the
ladies in charge. There were many de-
vices to pick up the money. Everything
in the way of fruits. flowers, fancy arti-
cles and food was for sale, and small
admission fee of 10 cents Melted them

turkey supper, which We sampled. Tur-
key, ham, potato salad, macaroni, pick
les and buttered rolls, whether eaten in
Florida or Name, have about the same
flavor. The receipts were nearly 81 200,
the net proceeds going to local charities,

pating. The next week St. Patrick's

We went out one evening to witness
another novelty peculiar to the South-a

roped off for the dancers. 1t was
strai ght and without car tracks and it's
smooth. asphalted surface was an ideal
place for dancing, although the present
jerky style would seem to be all right in
a freshly ploughed field, from my stand
point. The crowd was only equaled by

the fences, sidewalks, verandas and
windows being crowded with spectators;
the dancers were as numerous. This
evening was especially charming, one of
those nights when the air indoors and
out doors seemed just the same. When
you contrast this scene with our bleak
winds and deep snow drifts of this sea-
son at home, the choice is largely in IA
vor of the former.

A sTaHnARD FAMILY REMEDY
THE SOCONY KEROSENE.

For the protection of the public as
well as to identify distinctly its own pro-
duct, the Standard Oil Company of New
York is conducting an extensive adver-
Using campaign to direct attention to
socony Kerosene, which is claimed to be
as much superior to ordinary kerosene
as dairy but ter is to the 'processed" ar
ticle. This special distillation of crude Pc
troleum has been trademarked so that it
may be distinguished from the inferior
grades of kerosene. The popular error
still exists to some extent that all kero-
sene is alike, when as matter of fact,
there is as much difference between them
as between grades of milk. Socony Kero-
sene gives brilliant illumination without
smoke or odor, and in the oil stove or
heater its heat units are greater than
any other kerosene on the market. Re-
member, too, the use of kerosene means
a large saving of coal.
