LAKELAND WELL SUPPLIED
WITH MODERN HOTELS

Lakeland is fortunate in being
supplied, with elegant and wellap-
pointed hotels. Chief among these
is the Hotel Kibler, constructed of
reinforced concrete, which was COM
pleted in 1913 The first season its
patronage was so heavy that its 80
rooms were found to be inadequate
to the demands, and the following
summer an annex of forty rooms
was added. 1t will compare favorably
in building and equipment with ho-
tells in cities of $4,000 to $4,000. II
is under the management of Mr.. A.
b. Kibler, one of the principal own
ers, and has always enjoyed splen-
did patronage.
The New fremont is an excellant
hostelry, which is under the man.
agement of Mr.. c. Fielden. 1t was
for long time the. leading hotel of
this section. 1t has recently been
in large part rebuilt and completely
renovated.
The Hotel Marvin, the Hotel Sta
ten, the Eureka, the Matanzas, the
Ford House, The Savoy and the
Bridges Hotel, furnish excellent ac-
commodations, and there are other
smaller hotels, besides many good
board houses.

DAILY
ECONOMY CALENDAR
Yeur Bin Of Waste.
BY FRANCES MARSHALL.

In certain progressive store / know
each salesperson is provided with a little
pad at the head Of each page of which
stand these words Lost Sales" and be-
meath something like this goods we
carry but not in stock" goods we never
carry" customer wouldn't wait to be
Waited on" goods too dear" and other
ciassihcations that might cover the cause
CT sales that might have been made
bu weren't. And the salespeople In this
store take real interest in recording each
missed sale. OF course this record has
no significance regarding their own ability
as statesmen or saleswomen but 1t is
valuable to the managers of the store
III debating their subsequent efforts to-
ward getting the maximum number of
store
These slips tabulated and classified con-
stitute sort of bill of waste" as far
as purchasers are concerned, and II Is
IN order to reduce this waste to the
minimum that the records are kept
DID you, Mistress housewife, ever keep
ohi or waste In order to help you
toward greater household economy.
Try 1t just for a week. You will oe
surprised at the results
TO begin with you must keep an ac-
curate account of all the foodstuffs
wasted, and the items might be classi-
fed under such heads as this: l. Goods
that came from the dealer In unsatis-
factory state. 2. Goods that decayed or
became stale before needed. 8. Food ac-
c'dentaliy destroyed-burned or thrown
away by mistake. 4. Goods wasted be-
cause family would not eat it.
Other classifcatfons will suggest them
selves to you as you continue the expert
ment. You should itemize each entry
putting after 1t the approximate amount
OF the loss In money value. And for
each loss you should. as far as possible,
place the blame and suggest to yourself
a means of remedy.
or course. the bill of waste may be ap-
Piled to other departments of housekeep-
ing besides the food supply. Dishes that
are broken. tins that are burned dry,
clothes that are ruined In the washing
or scorched in the ironing, should also
be recorded In this bill. And I think 1t
would be very good idea to keep a sep
arate bill of waste for your own time.
OF course, you do not want to feel that
you must drive yourself every minute.
but you should cultivate the habit of
working when you work and playing when
you play. So when you have spent a day
and have that disagreeable feeling of hav-
ing accomplished nothing, just sit down
and ask yourself how that time was
wasted-through sheer mental laziness in
thinking out a shorter way of performing
the task, through lack of skill or through
simply a stubborn preference to do the
task in your antiquated method rather
than by a method you know to be shorter.

YOUR WEDDING DAY
And the Famous Men and Women
Who Have Shared 1t.
January 1s-Joseph Smith and Emma
Hale. Z. It. Stotesbury and
Lucretia Roberts Cromwell.
BY MARY MARSHALL.

Naturally a great deal of interest
attaches itself to the marriage of the
man who founded religion which
gained most widespread publicity be-
cause of its sanctioning, for a time, of
plural marriages. One wonders what
sort OF husband this religious leader
made, and incidentally what sort of
woman he chose for his own wife. In
the simple words of the mother of
Joseph Smith We have this account of
the marrying of her son and Emma
Hale: Joseph called my husband and
myself aside" she says, "and said. I
have been very lonely since Alvin died
and 1 have concluded to get married, and
II you have no objection to my uniting
myself in marriage with Miss Emma
Hale, she would be- my choice in prefer
ence to any other woman l have ever
SEEM"
Five years ago today a prominent so
ciety wedding took place in Washington.
remarkable in many ways but not the
least because the wedding gift of the
bridegroom to the bride was a simple
little check for four million dollars. At
least that is what folk said at the time
and the rumor was not denied. The
bride was Lucretia Roberts Cromwell.
or Mrs. Oliver Cromwell as she was bet
ter known in New York and Washing
ton society, where she played a promi-
nent role as hostess. The bridegroom
was Edward Townsend Stotesbury, the
Philadelphia capitalist who was So years
old at the time.
