Soup AS A Main Dish

A thick creamed soup will often
time be sufficient for dinner or
supper and many people have the
habit of doing just this thing. Now
for dinner soup, one usually
wants something a little heavier
than the average run of soup
which tends to be little thin.
CREAM OF POTATO SOUP
8 potatoes
/ quart milk
2 slices onion
8 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
liz tablespoons salt
" tablespoon celery salt
rs teaspoon pepper
Few grains cayenne
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
Cook the potatoes until very
soft. Scald the milk and onion in
double boiler. Drain the potatoes;
add the milk, having removed the
onion. Rub through strainer and
put back into double boiler over
the fire. Melt the butter or drip
pings, add the flour, stirring all the
time. Pour some of the hot milk
mixture over the thickening, then
return to the boiler and cook

PERFECT TEETH
DECLARED BUNK
DECLARATION MADE BY DR..
EDWARD c. SHRYoCK,
DENTIST
Especial to The Citizen

OCALA, Nov. 23.-The popu-
lar idea that primitive man pos
sessed perfect teeth is all bunk,
declared DR.. Edward C. Shryock,
local dentist, after examining va
rious sets of teeth taken from
shell mounds at Silver Glen
Springs in the Ocala National For
est.
Estimated to be over 1000 years
old, the teeth showed evidence of
pyorrhea, decay and assesses sim
liar to diseases affecting modern
teeth.
They were found to have been
worn down comparatively early in
life due to coarse foods which,
while strengthening the jaw and
toughening the gums perhaps, had
a tendency to destroy the dentine
and admit decay.
DIR. Shryock was of the opinion
that people of the present have
the best teeth of all times when
they take proper care of him.

DIR. FERNANDEZ
DIES in HAVANA
PRACTICED HIS PROFESSION
IN KEY WEST FOR
SEVERAL YEARS

Friends in Key West OF the de-
ceased have received news
chronicling the death of DR.. Luz
ciano Soto Fernandez who for
the past six years spent most of
his time in Key West, practicing
his profession.
Before leaving the city on the
Steamship Cuba last week, Doctor
Fernandez said that he was going
home to Havana. and he was con-
WINGED that he was going to die at
an early date.
Friends in Key West laughed
at the idea, and were surprised
when they were informed last
Friday that DR.. Fernandez was
taken i'll while on the vessel, and
died before he could be taken
ashore.

to vote it was necessary that the
1885 poll tax be paid.
This morning the records in the
office of Mr.. Ladd show that no
prospective voter has come for
ward at this time to register a de-
sire to vote on the question by
paying the necessary poll tax, and
the day for the election is but a
few weeks distant.
AS a matter of fact the election
will be held Thursday, December
80. Of course it is expected that
a large number of voters will
have qualified by that time. But
should the attitude of the voters
remain as it is apparent today, it
was pointed out, the only voters
viii be those who are exempt, the
number of these is approximately
1900.

Those who follow national poll

by voters will be reflected by
their representatives in Congress.
1t is in town, city and state cleo

The recent off-year elections
