THAT STORY OF MRS. -.
WILSON'S NEGLECTED GRAVE
(Ocala Banner

A great deal was said about the
neglected grave of the first Mrs.
Wilson. Many good people believed
the story even here in Ocala, so
much so that one of our good citi-
zens who was well acquainted with
one of the ministers living in Rome.
Ga. wrote to him for the real facts
regarding the story, and the follow
ing is the reply to his letter.
We hope that all those who were
misled by the publication of the
calumny concerning the presidents

the president justice by reading
what this Christian gentleman says

EVENT CELEBRATED
Children of Mr.. and Mrs. j. A. Gossett

Of Their Parents Golden Wedding
Anniversary

New Years day marked the celebra-
ton of the golden wedding anniversary
of Mr. and Mrs. ]. A. Gossett, who
fifty years ago January Sd, were uni
ted at Edmonton, Kentucky. The eel
ebration was somewhat of surprise
to the old folks who had no knowl-
edge that their children had planned
the event. The affair was held at the
home of the eldest son, J. w. w. Cos
sett, West Sixth street.
Eight of the ~ children were pres
ent besides % grandchildren. Also
present was Mrs. Gossett's brother
Mr.. Dilly and his wife and son. Mrs.
Abraham, a friend, was also present.
The entire party enjoyed a most
repast during which time
the honored aged ones became remin-
escent of days long gone.
The afternoon was pleasantly spent
in conversation and the aged couple
were showed with blessings for long
future existence. The eight children
presented them with two gifts, solid
gold headed cane for the father and
solid gold headed parasol for the
mother. They were recipients of
other gifts also.

Resident Drops Line and Tells Of
Pleasant Trip.

R. S. Matthews, the we'll known

recently left for CALIFORNIA; for an ex-
tended stay, has written the Star-Mir-
ror a letter from San Luis Obispo

journey. His lett,r is gossipy and
will be of interest to his many friends
here. The letter follows:
According to promise | am going

day it is cooler. San Luis Obispo is
said to contain about six or seven
thousand people, Almost completely

tude of about 23l feet, varlOuSly eS-
timated at from eight to eighteen miles
from the coast.

ETHICS AND ADVERTISING

Though much is to be said in favor
OF the recognition of codes of pro-
fessional ethics, they are not without
fault. At least they, or acts commit
ted under them, are not always con-
sistent.
A good deal has been said lately
about the evils of fec-Splitting, and
according to Dr.. Evans of the Chicago
Tribunes staff, the public can best
protect itself from the practice by
keeping informed on the progress of
medical science and familiar with the
names of the able and honorable men
practicing medicine and surgery. And
vet their code of ethics forbids them
to advertise.
Commenting on that feature of the
code, the Toledo Blade says:
Among the commandments of the
medical profession is a prohibition
against advertising. A man may not
tell the public that he is particularly
good in the cure of club feet. He may
not boast that he has performed three
hundred operations for appendicitis
and never left sponge behind. That
is, if he would keep his standing with
his fellow practitioners. Advertising
is unethical.
Yet there are notifications. If Il
young doctor, striving to get a foot
hold, arranges to have himself PACED
in the corridors of a hotel, or fixes it
up with an usher to call him away
from the theatre so that the audience
can behold the calling, there is moth
ing to be said against it. The older
doctors smile indulgently and their
minds wander back to the time when |
they worked the same lodges. or 9th |
ers of similar intent and purposes AS
VIZ understand it the hiring of pa
tents" to sit in the ante-room is not
unethical though it is advertising.
Racing hroses or automobiles through
he streets is not unethical though it
erve to advertise.
The Chicago doctor who officiated
II the birth-and death-of the Boil
niger baby has been cited to defend
limself of the charge of advertising,
.eainst ethics made and provided. He .
applied the local papers with his bio
raphy So he is accused.
I'VE all of us like doctors and some
+ us have genuine affection for :,
hem. If once in while we laugh at r
hem we do so as friends"

Views on Taxation by a Reader

The writer's views are to reduce
county expenses, and to get a more
Just equalization on land values by
abolishing the office of assessor and
do away with deputy assessors. Forms
could be printed and sent out by the
county clerk to all land-holders within
the county the receiver of same to di-
agram his tract of land on said form,
showing that portion, if any, that
would be considered as waste land ;
also the amount under cultivation, in
| timber, brush, or slashed over. The
land-holder should then return his
form properly filled out and signed
to the county clerk, who shall have
the privilege, at the county's expense,
of employing an assistant whose duty
lit shall be, after reports are all in
to tabulate the reports in their respec
tive precincts on one form, and copy
of same shall be posted in conspic-
uous place within that precinct that
all may view, and a penalty of say
so cents per acre should be attached
to the assessed taxes of any person or
persons failing to properly give in
their acreage: and any person inform
ing the proper authority of an error
of any consequence shall receive one
half of the penalty. and the inform
ants name shall be withheld by the
authorities from anyone.
When the amount of valuation is de-
termined the county clerk is then in
a position to place IN equal valua-
ton. on all land according to their
classes.
Land should be classed in five class I

should be first class; cleared land in /
he timber belt should be second class I
imber land not logged off should be in
he third class; brush land and land
lot broke should be in the fourth

,annot be plowed should be in the
fifth class.

TWENTY YEARS AGO.
AN ANu-LoyER CRUSADE

The members of St. Patrick's T. A. and B.. society, it is said, have be- gun an "Anti-lover crusade" that threatens to- break up either the so- ciety or several prospective we'd dings. They are determined that all members shall join bachelors club that is an adjunct to the society prop CT, and they started last night to en- force their ideas. About 20 of them started from the clubhouse at Main and Catherine streets, early last even ing and visited the houses where it was known that members were call ing Quietly forcing their way in, when their summons was answered they seized the visitors, found their hats and coats and forced them to accompany the crowd. About a dozen houses in different parts of the city were visited and 16 girls were made unhappy. Three young men were taken from one house, wto from another while one was in most of the others visited. One member was dis covered hiding under a sofa and was dragged forth. Occasionally the girls or their mothers objected to the summary actions of the visitors, but their protest was of no avail in any case. Considerable i'll feeling has al- ready resulted from the raid, but the bachelors declare they will continue their trips until all the men whom they have marked cease their Sunday evening visits.

LECTURE COURSE AT
 PARK STREET CHURCH
 IS ATTRACTING MANY

As soon as people catch on to the fact that the Park Street church en- tertainment course includes three at fractions that cost hundreds of dol lars to bring to the city, and yet course tickets are to be had, if obtained at once, for less than the price ordinar- fly charged for one of these enter tainments, they pick up the tickets fast.
 This is what the Mems league wants the people to know, especially the young men of our city whose only home here is a boarding house, be- fore it is too late.
 The popular science lecture by Chas. H. Tyndall, Ph. D.. heads the list, and is down for Tuesday evening of next week.
 The Redpath Grand Quartet, assist ed by a concert pianist, come Jan. 5. It is crack quartet, singing great music magnificently, and yet equally at home with the best popular melo- dies, war songs, home songs, and non- sense verse. Strickland Gillian, the famous funny man, comes with his heart cheering clean humor and wit Jan. 25. Mrs. Alice Mertens, con- traltO soloist, appears the same even ing. Gilillan's lecture is entitled, Sunshine and Awkwardness"
 Course tickets are now on sale at the following places: The Jackson Book Shop, J. s. Wooster & Co.'S, Ernest Kingston's Wolff & Hitch, Challen- gers News store, the Y. M C. A., Bas- sett's Bakery and Wright's pharmacy. The sale is limited to the seating ca pacity of the church, ensuring every one seat though there will be no re- serves.

Christmas Giving
 Seems Now To Be
 More Sensibly Done

The useless truck that many peo- pie used to buy for Christmas has been a notable phase of human folly It was terrific strain on human na- ture to show the proper spirit of grat- itude When fellow was given a plush covered photograph albuh with fooled leather and heavy gilt edges, for which he had no possible use, of course it was up to him to express the most exuberant joy.
 But just as soon as he could de- gently do so, the album was moved up to the attic, whence in due time it made it's way to the junk man. If he ever gave it a second thought, it was to wish that one-fourth of the money it cost could have been put in- to something that he really wanted.
 Among thoughtful people a Christ mas gift is not worth making unless the tastes of the recipient are careful ly considered. In great many fam flies and circles of friendship, people frankly inquire of each other what they would like to receive. There may not be quite so much element of surprise about such present. But the thanks for the same are apt to be much more heartfelt.
 Merchants seem to feel that gifts are more practical and substantial than they used to be. The be-rib boned and lacey frippery that used to fill the stores is not so present to-day. In great many families substantial gifts of needed articles of clothing form the holiday offerings and are most acceptable.
 For the children of course toys are the real thing. When you give boy a handsome overcoat or pair of rub Der boots, he looks aggrieved. No matter how much money you put into it, he does not look at clothing as a gift. It is his by right, and he feels cheated out of a present. A toy rail- road train that will break down in three days will cause him. more joy than the finest garment that the stores can offer. As a result the average home is mass of broken toys the fortnight after Probably the best gifts for children are substantial ar ticles for use in athletic sports. which help keep them exercising and inter- ested in out door life.
