THE HEART.
How Il Acts In Every Day Life.

The human heart in healthy man
weighs but eleven ounces. 1t beats
from long before birth until death, In
an average lifetime, about seven mill
lion times, allowing seventy beats to
the minute. Every twenty-four hours
this slight organ performs labor equiv
alent to lifting ton of material eighty
feet into the air. If the blood becomes
poor, and filed With poiso2s from dis
eased kidneys, he heart is not only
starved, but poisoned as well. 1t soon
becomes exhausted and unable to meet
any extraordinary demand which may be
made upon it. Supply pure blood; get
the kidneys to working; tone up the
feeble stomach DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery purifes the blood,
relieves the kidneys and tones up the
alimentary canal. Give the heart the
food it needs and it will continue to work
till the natural end of life.
Pensacola, Fiat was in very bad
shape four years ago and from what / had
read IN regard to heart trouble, considered
my case quite serious, which would have
In time become fatal but for the strength

from DIR. Pierce valuable Golden Medical
Discovery. My heart would palpitate
very fast, and often things would grow
dark before. my eyes and | would fall,

FLORIDA is A
GREAT CATTLE STATE

Statistics, which our observations
verify. show that the cattle and hog
growing industry of Florida is max
ing great strides forward. Marion
county is getting almost twice the
money out of her hog and cattle in
dustry that she obtained ten years
ago. The same conditions prevail
over the state as a whole, the native
cattle having been increased greatly
in numbers and the grade has been
greatly improved by the introduction
of better bulls on the ranges.
The increased number of cattle
grazing the woods and fields is very
noticeable to a person travelling thru
the country. From Jacksonville to
Ocala and on south to Brooksville and
Orlando, the woods are well sprinkled
with cows, and there are literally
thousands of them to be seen in a
days travel.
Just now the grass is very fine and
conditions are most favorable to
raise the little range calves of which
there have been tens of thousands
dropped in the past few weeks. One
noticeable feature of the range is that
the cut-over lands, now well denuded
of timber, make far better grazing
lands than formerly.

IMPROVEMENTS
AT SILVER SPRINGS

The visitor to Silver Springs can't
help but note with admiration the
improvements that have been made
in the last few months.
The most noticeable is the big, new
bathhouse. This is one of the largest
and best arranged in the state. There
are rs rooms, 35 for ladies and 40 for
men. The rooms are nicely and con-
veniently arranged, those for the
ladies at one end and those for men
at the other. Each division has a
big dressing room, properly fitted up.
Specially noticeable is a big mirror
in the ladies' dressing room. Between
the divisions is a central office where
the bathers may obtain suits, of
which large stock of the best is
kept on hand. The price is very
moderate, % cents for bathroom and
suits, or Is cents for those who fur
nish their own suits. The bath
houses are under the management of
Mr.. G. T. Madden.
A concrete foundation has been
laid for a new dancing pavilion,
which will soon be erected and up to
date. The old pavilion is to be re-
moved, and docks and piers take its
place.
In the next few weeks a bus line
will be put on between Ocala and the
springs, enabling passengers to make
the round trip for 25 cents. This
will not be as good as trolley line,
but better than anything afforded so
far for those who do not own cars.
Ed. Carmichael is making all these
improvements, and as the reporter
looked over the buildings, new and
old, the two fine passenger yachts and
the big freight boat, which were all
in the basin Saturday morning he
couldn't help rejecting that big
hearted old Ed. has never counted his
money when it came to doing things
that might help his home city along,
and hoping that some day soon he
might reap reward. He has been
paid mostly in thanks so far.

impossible to estimate the great value
Of electricity to US, in our intercourse
between neighbors, between states,
between countries, and even between
continents. It was wonderful enough
when man could send his message
over wires, but to send it by means Of
ether waves without any wires is
simply marvellous. Think of seeing
the person to whom you are talking
over the phone while you are talking.
This has been accomplished, but it is
not widely used. One of the strangest
inventions is a typewriter with eyes.
The typewriter is run by electricity
and the letters are reflected by means
OF lenses corresponding to the human
eye.
No one can predict the future of
this mysterious power. Scientists
have all agreed that we have only
crossed the bordersinto a land 80 awe
inspiring that it seems as if we were
approaching the throne of the Al
mighty Himself.

BIG WoODMEN PICNIC

Arrangements have been complet-
ed by Fort King camp No. IA, to hold
a big basket picnic at Eustis Thurs
day, May 18th. A special train has
been secured for the occasion and
there will be ample accommodations
for all. The special leaves the A. G..
L. passenger station promptly at
7:30, so be on hand with your basket
and prepare to have big time with
the boys on that day. The drill team
of the camp will take charge of the
baskets en- route, so deliver them at
the baggage car which will be provid-
ed for that purpose and yours will
be well cared for until the grounds
are reached. The train will leave
Eustis returning at o'clock, thus
putting the crowd back in Ocala
about z.
Get your basket ready and take a
day off with the Woodmen.

GATHERING AT GRAHAMvILLE

The candidates had another pleas
ant meeting with the people Satur-
day, at one of the most picturesque
spots in the county, namely Graham
vile.
The place of gathering was bluff,
the foot of which was once washed by
the full tide of the 0klawaha. It is
a picturesque spot; doubtless the In
dams gathered there many times be-
fore the palefaces came, and their
canoes glided up and down the river
hundreds of years before the water
was churned by the paddlewheel or
propeller. But they are all gone now;
even their bones are dust. The river
formerly made one of it's long de-
tours there, coming down almost to
Grahamville, then curving back and
sweeping around a mile or more to
return to its course a hundred yards
or so from where it diverged. Some
years ago the government had a cut
made thru this narrow neck, letting
Considerable water yet flows the an
cient course, however, and the boys
of the neighborhood have fine swim
ming pool at the foot of the bluff.
There is also a good spring of cool
water, slightly impregnated with
sulphur. The ground is beautifully
shaded with live oaks and other
trees, making it an ideal place for a
picnic.
There were about 800 people pres
ent, some fifty of whom went out
from Ocala. Col. R. F. Rogers,
whose old home at Lynne is but a
few miles away, was present and was
unanimously chosen as chairman.
The candidates spoke their little
pieces without much divergence from
the usual course. The most note
worthy incident of the day was tilt
between Mr.. Fort, who now repre-
sents the fourth district, and Mr.. G..
A. Waters, the young Electra far
mer, who wants the elder states
mans place on the board of commits
sioneEs. Sentiment of the crowd
seemed equally divided. Judge Smith
finished his speech by offering to sell
Joe Bell marriage license, thus ex-
empting him from military service,
which little joke made big smile.
Zewadski made the speech of the day;
he trimmed Light up to the queens
taste. While Light and Zee are get
ting each others goats, Judge Tit
comb is stepping around quietly and
may get the bacon.
The Grahamville people and their
neighbors had a fine dinner. Their
tables were laid out in an L; there
was plenty of room and plenty to
eat; and it was all of the best. Good
cooks abound east of the river, and
they have plenty to cook The fact |
OF it is thar this comparatively un-
known and neglected part of the
county, between the Oklawaha ard
the st. Johns has the size and re-
sources of county in itself; and will
be one some of these days.

BOUGHT A NEW TRUCK

The Ocala Chero-Cola Bottling
Works has bought handsome new
truck from the International Har-
vester company. It is truck of 2400
pounds capacity and will be used to
serve the trade in this section of the
state. The truck was sold through
Mr.. r. o. Connor and Mr.. D. N. Math-
ews, the company's travelling sales
men in this section, who have also
sold two traction engines for delivery
in this section shortly.

GOLF LINKS ARE BEAUTIFUL

The golf links, or the Ocala Coun-
try Clubs grounds, are unusually
beautiful at present. Always a pretty
spot, just now the links with their
spring carpet of bright green grass
and the many beautiful water and
live oak trees in their first prime of
early summer foliage present a most
inviting appearance, which is added
to not little by the green farm
crops on the adjoining hillsides. This
property is indeed an asset to Ocala
and is by no means appreciated by
our people.

MELON CROP WILL BE GOOD

The melon crop of Marion county,
despite all of the unfavorable con-
ditions through which it has strug-
gled, will be fairly good this year.
The vines will have a good yield,
and the melons are growing nicely
with the recent rains and warm days.
While the acreage is not large the
price should make up for the lack of
it. The crop is little late, but for
all of that is ten days earlier than
last season and will probably come
in well ahead of Georgia, for the
same conditions that held our crop
back were prevalent there, only more

SOME HEAVY SHIPMENTS

The 0cala Knitting Mills shipped
last week % cases of knitted gar
ments, each case containing 40 dozen
garments, 1920 dozen in all or a total
OF l3,44O garments. Quite little
weeks work for an Ocala factory to
turn out in its first years business.
Eleven of the cases went out of the
state via the Seaboard and II via the

says ne will gradually increase the
mills output until he is shipping each
week 1900 dozen garments.

THE COMMENCEMENT SERMON

If the candidates who are tramping
the state at the present time, trying
to impress on the minds of the dear
people that they individually are the
only fit and capable ones to fill certain
political-and incidentally remunera-
tive-ofices, could gather together an
audience such as filed the Temple
theater Sunday morning, it certainly
would do their hearts good for there
was a big crowd present, only limit
ed by the number of seats in the
house.
The occasion of this big turn out
was to listen to the sermon delivered
to the graduating class of the Ocala
high school by DIR. j. G. Anderson of
Gainesville, and those present have
reason to be glad for they listened to
one Of the most eloquent and inspir-
ing sermons ever delivered to a
class Of young men and young wom-
en-.
Dr. Anderson to ok for his text the
words found in Colossians 2-8, "Be-
ware lest any man spoil you through
philosophy and vain deceit" In part
he said: At the time that Paul wrote
these words there was great danger
of the church being swept out of ex-
istence by a species of oriental phil
osophy which taught people that there
was nS need of Christ in human
life; and his theme was founded on
the fact that every act of the indi-
vidual, of the state or nation, found
led on that false doctrine led only to
destruction. And that teachers,
schools or colleges which claim that
their mission is to cultivate the mind
and not morals are radically wrong,
for human life to be a success must
combine both, and that to eliminate
the teaching of the Bible left educa-
ton incomplete. He spoke of the
| teachings of the Hebrew, the Greek
and the Latin, the first a product of
the heart, the Greek standing for in
IcI4SCI ant Tic Ldtil 1Oi Will VI
power, and that each of these nations
were failures because they only cul-
tivated one instead of all three. The
Hebrews taught love of God and
when the two ancients noting the
ceaseless motion of the flowers, and
one claimed that they were holding a
conversation with God the other re-
marked that they must be talking in
Hebrew al that was the. language of
the heart. 1t was not the scholarship
of Rome that made her great but the
will power of Caesar. The mind today
looks back to the flowers of the
Greek language, but it's only a con-
ception of the intellect not sustained
either by the will power of the Latin
or the heart love of the Hebrew.
Plato had sense enough to see the
golden rule but not the will power to
make it effective while Rome domi-
mated only by will power gave way to
luxury and corruption and became an
easy prey to conquerors and today
any man or nation who subordinates
intellect to will power will become an
abject failure.
In conclusion he asked the grad
uating class to stand up and then in
the most beautiful and forcefu1
language he urged upon them to COM
bine in their future lives, a strong
will power governed and controlled
by clear intelligence, and beauti--
ed by seart of love and truth.
