Moral Suasion

James Baxter Twigg drank lemon

other deadly kinds of slop, of drugs
and dyestuffs made; l felt that if
he didn't stop they'd plant him with
a spade. And people roasted ]. B.
Twigg. they climbed him every day,
they. said he was blooming pig to
drink that sort Of whey; they jawed
him till his sorrel wig soon changed
to wintry gray. Oh, now and then
we see a gent with stubbornness en-
lowed; he is so built he will resent
the preaching of the crowd; though
in his head we make dent, that
head is still unbowed. | thought it
wasn't strictly wise to roast James
Baxter Twigg, for there was brood
ing in his eyes a spirit strong and
big. the soul of one who faints and
dies before he quits the jig. And SO
| said to him. "Oh, James. your
neighbors make you sore, and jaw
ing gents and doleful danes have
made your life bore; if you would
queer their moral games, you'll do
what they implore. For months they
have surrounded you, and raised
their daily storm. and tried to pound
you black and blue with language
rich and warm; often wonder what
they'd do, if haply you'd reform"
James Baxter Twigg. he winked
three winks. and said. your rede
is kind. and I'll cut out those noxious
drinks which have unhmged my
mind, and laugh at all the busy
ginks who've talked me deaf and

IVORY SUPPLY DWINDLES.

The worlds supply of ivory is di-
minishing rapidly. good quality in the
product already has become scarce
and expensive and it is estimated by
experts in the industry that within
twenty or thirty years substitute

. have to be found because the supply
of ivory will be virtually exhausted,
according to report s>nt to the Dc
partment of Commerce from George 5.
Nessersmith. American consul at Ant
werp. where the big ivory market
is held.
Congo production has fallen off un-
til there is no surplus stock on hand
and a continual decrease is expected.
The two former sourceDof supply are
failing. Chiefs of the Congo tribes
no longer have ivory to barter and
elephant cemeteries seldom are found
any more. Mr.. Messersmith explains
: that hunters are loath to seek the
valuable tusks now because they
must pay steep prices for permits
and then divide the tusks obtained
with the government.

Following a conference in Jackson

the u. S. Bureau Of Animal Industry,
and DR.. J. v. Knapp, state veterinar-
ian, regarding Inauguration of syste-

ut will take little while to get the
forces fully organized and when that
is accomplished and there is evident a
sincere effort on the part Of the cattle
owners. county officials and others to
cooperate with the State Live Stock
Sanitary Board and the bureau, it is
our purpose to facilitate the interstate
movement of cattle through the two
local stock yards by inspection and
certification, where the cattle are
handled under proper procedure.
I'm this connection it might be well
for all parties to understand That the
opening of inspection and certification
privileges and continuation of same
depends upon a wholehearted coopera-
ton in systematic work by the cattle
owners in Duval county, so that the
work can be successfully accomp-
lished. This offers to the cattlemen in
other sections of the state an oppor-
tunity to get an outlet for surplus cat

to discontinue such privilege il effec-
tive work is not carried on in Duval

The Lure of Great Outdoors,

there's no use in going off to some
distant place for vacation and spend
ing lot of money and be out Of touch
with affairs at home when there is so
much good questioning lying around
loose at home and where I can keep
an eye on the business, and an ear too
if needed"
II couldn't go anywhere where I
could find a better climate, cooler days
and nights, finer water and a better
neighborhood and have an all round
better time than can have right here
near Pensacola, and where can have
my folks with me all the time, be near
my business and build up a good
orchard and country place at the same
time for very little more than 1t
would take to go off on a vacation at
some distant place. Can you beat that
combination"
We confessed that 1t was "unbeat-
able" And George went away perfect

anyone should come across George and
he should be wearing a big straw hat,

Raising satsuma oranges has been
quite a hobby with George Emmanuel.
or it might be more appropos to say
that the idea of raising them has been
one of Georges pet schemes for some
years past, but the opportunity seem
ed to be lacking. Last week, however,
the idea, the man and the opportunity
met and they formed an indivisable
partnership.
BY the purchase of the "Old Prof.
Mr.. Emmanuel has made of himself
landed proprietor" and having q
few weeks for vacation he hiked
himself and family to his newly ac
quired country home last Thursday,
and when last seen and heard he was
going into glowing eulogies Of how he
intended to build up that place, plant
satsumas, pecans, and other fruit, and
nut trees; raise chickens, milk cows.
and it is even believed that he intends
putting out an apaiary so that he could
raise bees, not SO much for the honey
that he expects to get from them as to
be prepared to apply the bee sting
remedy in case he gets rheumatism
sloshing around the ponds in his inn
mediate neighborhood.
OF course, IN all these muItidunious
affairs he will keep his weather eye
