SEES REAL DANGER

Some folks would have us believe
that practically every newspaper In
the state of Florida is talking ''bosh
when it refers to the possibilities back
OF the Republican effort in this state
Some lukewarm Democratic newspa-
pers have branded the reference to
tie preservation of white suprem
acy' as mere piffle. We trust that
they are correct in their view and not
merely hiding their own semi Repub-
lican souls behind pretense of De-
mocracy. But the Daily Times be-
Tieves that there is danger back OF
the Republican effort-a danger that
can only be avoided by the vigilance
0. Democrats everywhere in the state.
Other newspapers--and majority Of
those in Florida at that--take the
same view. st. Petersburg Times.
Gainesville is one Of the Florida
towns that is going strongly after the
auto tourists, and is epdeavoring to
raise $4,000 for the equipment of an
auto camp. OF this sum $1,375 has
been raised.

the young poet. UnConsCiously the
husband furnished such opportuni-
ties. Called away frequently by
the stress OF State affairs, he con-
fided the happiness Of Teodora to
the ingenuity of Ernesto. And the
young man, filled only with love
for his benefactor, did his best to
amuse the bride.
And the world talked; good
looking young man and a hand
some young wife and the husband
not at home. The very servants
commented on the danger of such
a case and easy proceeding.
The old butler shook his head
sadly at this monstrous breach of
the regulated forms. Don Julian

secure in her belief in the honor
of her mistress. Later she wan
dered into the studio and be-
held with amazement a new head
on the modelling stand; the bust
of Julian had disappeared and in
its stead stood one OF the young
poet.
The old woman sighed; a dozen
Spanish proverbs rushed into her
head. Foolish husband" She
echoed the thought of the butler.
He takes a chance with happiness
when no chance is called for"
Secure in their own righteous
ness, the two young people made
no secrecy of their fondness for
each others company. They drove
together in sight of all the people
of Seville, thereby offering to the
tongues of the passers-by food fer
gibe and innuendo.
And on one of these drives to
the outskirts they paused on a soft
afternoon to alight and walk rev.
erently to a figure Of the Lord
crucifed which stood majestic
against the landscape.
The man and woman felt the
lesson of the sublime sacrifice ra-
dating from this figure and gazed
in silent awe bound up with their
reverence.
The coachman sat immovable
while they knelt, but The World
and His Wife were not there TO
see; perhaps If they had been even
this tribute would have been con-
strued as one of repentance for a
sin of which they were innocent.
They came back in silence, each

day with the pathetic figure on the
cross. God was in His heaven
and all seemed right.

Hints For The
Household

Several lemons of each dozen
bought usually mold or dry up till
unfit for use. Try the following
method for preserving the juice;
Squeeze and strain the juice into
bottles having no dampness inside.
Fill nearly full. then put a table
spoonful of olive oil on top, cork
tightly and keep in a cool, dark
place. When you wish to use the
lemon juice run a piece of cotton in
the bottle, which absorbs the oil,
and the juice is fresh as one could
wish.
Salt and vinegar will remove
stains from discolored teacups.
