From Arcadia comes the news
that Cochran of Nocatee will not

about as well that he retire and

that Gus Durrance, the county
clerk, will enter the race ostensl-

of townships from falling into the
hands of Okeechobee county c1tl-
zens who will send a man after 1t
in 1921 that guarantees to grab
anything that is lying around
loose.
Therefore, before Moore Haven
commits itself to the innocent cit
liens of Sebring and Avon Park,
we want to hear from Gus Dur

county division and also whether

the Sehring White Way. That

dictate what the east side Of the

Thorn, the frolicsome writer of
the Palm Beach Post, copies what
The Herald said about printing
communications just as they are
written, without any corrections
and remarks thereon as follows:
eff all the papers would do this,
there would be the insertion OF
so great a number OF comics
that the writers would either
learn something-or remain ST.
lent. 1t would come about as re-
lated in Second Peter, the third
chapter, and the 18th verse: 'Ye
therefore, beloved, seeing y(
know these things before, beware
lest we also, being led away by The
error of the wicked, fall from
your own steadfastness. "

Florida in Summer

Most people are ignorant on
some certain subject simply be-
cause they have had no opportun-
ity to be enlightened on it; a few
are ignorant because they refuse
TO learn, while still others are
merely prctendedly ignorant, be-
cause they hate to admit they
were wrong.
The subject of Florida climate
and temperatures in summer is
merely one that the great majori-
ty of out-of-Florida folk simply
know nothing about. Many have
the childish idea that it is bound
to be hot as you go south, and
some of these doubtless would ar
que with you that at the south
pole is the heat Of hell!
For years this and other Florl-
da papers have been trying to
educate the people of the rest Of
the country to the fact that Flor
ida is cooler in summer than al
most any interior section in latl-
tudes as high as Chicago and Bos-
ton; and that there is scientific
and natural reason for this fact
namely, that Florida is a great
peninsula and that whatever way,
save one, the winds blow, they
come from over water and are
tempered by the seas.
But one can argue that day in
and day out, and still there will
be people who refuse to believe II
Just as there are those who refuse
70 believe that white clothes are
cooler than dark colOred ones, ev,
en- though the dark ones are OF
| Tighter weight. SO, instead OF
I further words to prove that Flor
| ida is cooler, we will just print q
section from the weather report

BUSH HIDES HOLLANDS HILL
But Even at That, the Mound Is Justly
Appreciated in That Flat
Country.

It seems absurd to speak of a hill
in Holland, but if the best guessers
are right the name of the country is
from our word hollow" meaning a
depression in the land. An American,
however, found at Gronigan hill that
was the showplace of the town. 1t
was artificial.
There Is fine hill in the Plan
taage," said his companion, Hol-
lander, "and from the summit of it you
will be able to see the country for a
great distance around"
1t interested the American greatly
to hear that there was such thing as
a hill in Holland.
But where is it?' he asked, looking
around the intermnable plain. 81 can
see no hill"
ut is Just over there, but you can
not see it, for it is hidden by that
bush !"
The American assembled this fine hill,
which proved to be an artificial mound
not 20 feet in height, but the natives
are very proud Of it and speak of it
as if it were some huge mountain. AS
an instance of how successfully a
Groningener is deceived by his admi-
ration for the town hill, it may be
mentioned that the Americans COM
panion heaved deep sigh, mopped his
face and dropped as if exhausted in
a chair, thoughtfully placed there by
the corporation for this object, when
he reached the summit.
But to- Go this eminence justice it
must be admitted that the hill is be-
yond dispute above the level of the
! sea.-Exchange.

SOCIALISTS GAIN IN SWEDEN.
H"HpcnSion Of Prohibition if''i"i'i
 Said to Have Had Encrt.

Stockholm, April 3l, (CorFoSPohd- encc of The Associated fFHSS) - con siderable gains made by the NocljlllSt party in the county CounrlIS ''cC'iohS held in Sweden recently IS A''rlpu'td by Somo Swedish newspapers to the fact that the party dropped It's Tor mcr prohibition platform and now stands for moderate liberation or sup plies of beer and spirits. That IS also the policy of the conservative party.
 Under u new franchise act passed by the Riksdag last fall, tho polls are open to all mon and women over 23 years of age. Previously only Qualified taxpayers had been permit ted to vote. The number of votes east showed an increase over the last election of more than 100 per cent.
 The socialist gains were mostly at the expense of the liberal party, which in all the large cities was badly beaten not only by the SO- ciaIiSts but also by tho conservatives. In Stockholm the socialists elected 55 candidates the conservatives 30 and the liberals l5. the parties polling respectively 72,OO0, 45,000 and 2O,- 900 votes in this city.

DRgNK HOT WAITER IF YOU DESIRE A ROSY COMPL LEXlON Says we can't help but look
 better and feel better after an inside bath.

To look ones best and feel ones best is to enjoy an inside bath each morning to flush from the system the previous days waste, sour fermonta- tions and poisonous toxins before it is absorbed into the blood. Just as coal, when 1t burns, leaves behind a certain amount of incombustible material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken each day leave in the nlimentary organs a certain amount of indigestible material, which If not eliminated, form toxins and poisons which are then sucked into the blood through the very ducts which are in- tended to suck In only nourishmont to sustain the body.
 If you want to see the glow of healthy bloom In your checks, to see your skin get clearer and clearer, you are told to drink every morning upon arising, a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in 1t, which Is harmless means of wash ing the waste material and toxins from the stomach, liver kidneys and bowels thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire ailmentary tract, before putting more food into the stomach.
 Men and women with sallow skins, liver spots, pimples or pallid com plexion, also those who wake up with A coated tongue, bad taste, nasty breath, others who are bothered with headaches, bilious spells, acid stomach or constipation should begin this phos- phated hot water drinking and are assured of very pronounced results in one or two weeks.
 A quarter pound of limestone phos- phate costs very little at the drug store but is sufficient to demonstrate that just as soap and hot water cleanses, purifies and freshens the skin on the outside, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the inside organs. We must always consider that Internal sanitation Is vastly more im- portant than outside cleanliness be- cause the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, while the bowel pores do.
