Are You a Danqler?

A dangler is one who bangles, that
is one who awaits the decisions Of
other people instead of choosing his
own course and making circumstances
conform to 1T. The dangler may be
found any day in the open market,
complaining because nobody hires him,
or her, as the case may be. Our most
celebrated and successful laborers
asked no odds of anybody. They SIM
ply went to work, somewhere, any,
where that offered opportunity, and
then they helped to build up the COM
munity that supported them and so
became in time grand old men," who
to undiscerning minds seemed to have
been wonderfully favored by fortune.
They did not bangle, but became the
strong supports upon which folk of a
weaker sort leaned, and not in vain,
that virtue would come out Of them.

PLANTS PURIFIERS OF Air
Their Consumption Of Carbonic Acid
Gas, Always Going On, Is of
Great Benefit.

Plants do not breathe or have any
action corresponding to the breathing
of animals. Oxygen is essential to the
sustaining of life in animals, includ-
ing human beings, and in breathing
air they consume or appropriate the
oxygen it contains and give out car
bonic acid gas, which is. poisonous.
Plants do not consume oxygen, but
they consume carbonic acid, thus help
ing to purify the atmosphere. which is
to some extent rendered impure by
the breathing of animals. They do not
generate oxygen, but they release it
by consuming the carbonic acid. Tyn-
dali, celebrated scientist, says: "Con-
slider all the fires In the world and all
the animals in the world continually
pouring their carbonic acid into the
atmosphere. Would it not be fair to
conclude that our air must become
more and more contaminated and unfit
to support either combustion or life?
This seems inevitable, but II would be
a conclusion founded upon half knowl-
edge, and therefore wrong. A provi-
sion exists for continually purifying
the atmosphere Of its excess of car
bonic acid. By the leaves of plants
this gas is absorbed, and within the
leaves it is decomposed by the solar
rays. The carbon is stored up in the
tree, while the pure oxygen is restored
to the atmosphere. Carbonic acid, in
fact, is to a great extent the nutriment
of plants, and inasmuch as animals in
the long run, derive their food from
the vegetable world, this very gas,
which at first sight might be regarded
as a deadly constituent of the atmos-
phere, is the main sustainer, both Of
vegetable and animal life."

FINEST WEATHER IN TROPICS
Climate So Delightful That the Aver.
age Person Would Soon Tire
Of the Monotony.

The days were wonderful, and the
alterations of sun and wind were as
exciting as the discovery of the
strange Malayan beasts and birds. The
sun rose softly-no breeze moved
cloud or leaf, and even the light came
at first moderately, indirectly, reflect
ed from the higher peaks, or hello
graphed from the mirror of half-hid-
den, distant waterfall. In early after
noon-one never knew just when-the
faintest of breezes sifted down and
blurred the lacery of tree-fern shad-
ows. The wind was cool and soon
strengthened and by night the air was
surging violently through the gap, ST.
phoned from the cold SUBMITS down
to the hot, humid valleys. Day after
day one reawakened to the sense Of
tropical surroundings from a convic-
ton of northern autumn, with the
wind full of swirling leaves and the
fronds soughing with the same sad
cadence as the needles of scented
pines of the northland.-William Bee

Artificial Sponge Propagation.

The growing scarcity of sponges has
warned those familiar with harvesting
them that unless means are provided
to augment the natural supply the
sponge industry will be seriously Grip
pied in a few years more. An Eng
lishman, living in Florida, some time
ago selected site off the Florida
coast, where he started sponge farm.
At present he has about 100000
sponges, which are capable by subdi-
vision of increasing about tenfold ev-
cry three years. At the end of three
years an annual yield of 100000
sponges can be had. - Portsmouth

Initiation Party

The announcement yesterday of
the initiation party given by the ga"
club at the home of Miss Caroline
pleasing adaptability has made her
one of Ocala's most popular girls,
was a forerunner of a most happy
event which had it's elimination last
evening in one of the jolliest parties
yet enjoyed by the club. The pass
word of the club being given, the
candidates, who were Misses Rexie
Todd, Hannay Ellis, Stella Camp and
Eloise Henry, were led into a dark
ened room and blind-folded A large
black A was then painted on each
cheek and chin, and an enormous A
made of pasteboard, painted black
pinned on the back of each. Thus dis
tinguished, a solemn march to the
Court Pharmacy was then begun,
which ended by the doomed candi-
dates treating their more fortunate
sisters. However that ever generous
and sympathetic Mr.. James Pyles
came to the rescue and treated the
remaining four. The homeward
march was made without mishap,
where after giving the club yell,
(which by the way is an awakener)
the initiation stunts began. The un-
lucky candidates almost came to the
conclusion that there was no ending,
for the proverbial goat was thor
oughly ridden. and each new member
felt that she was most deserving of
recognition. At eleven o'clock Miss
