That brother down in Tampa,
who was recently discussing in pub
lie the uncomfortable theme of the
eternal duration of hell as a penal
institution might further enlarge
his views of the subject and reduce
its temperature by considering what
Ella Wheeler Wilcox has to say -about
this burning ouestion:
"The greatest, the most intellec
tual mid most sane minds of earth
have believed in reincarnation. The
understanding of this great law will
vrov as the world prows in inielli
". iee, and men will understand that
heaven and hell are planes of
thought, and that by choosing their
thoughts they can create whichever
region, they .-boose to occupy, here
and hereafter not eternally hero
after, for existence is a series of
rounds Mid cycles, and the spirit of
man moves ever onward, without be
ginning and without end.
"And the understanding of these
glorious truths will inspire a new
race of men to new heights of
achievement."'

Let us show you this property. Let us show you a magnificent location for a home, the best in
the city. Let us show you the great c:v.r,.-o :.r:J grapefruit trees cn every lot, worth almost half the
price asked ior the h t. 1 he fr.:!i rv r ;kis vur hut is yours next.
Each lot is within easy reach of a present sewerage system, city water, electric lights, and within'
ten minutes walk of postoffic. All lots have an easy slope to the lake securing excellent drainage.
For a limited time these lots will be placed on the market at from $650 to $1,250, according to
size and frontage. These lots will be sold on terms, viz: one fourth cash, balance, 6, 12, and 18 months,
8 per cent interest, 5 per cent discount for cash.
To ensure this edition being select, the owners have incorporated in their deed a building restriction,
by which the purchaser will be required to build a house to cost not less than $1500.
Now is the time to buy, while you have the whole addition to select from. The choice locations
will soon be snapped up and the price of the remaining lots advanced.

sartorial . .I'lein of his party in the
long iuo it a vain endeavor to diver;
attention from present issues and re
tail the ghosts of the dead past to
rekindle the prejudices of that period.
And all because Woodrow Wilson
wrote a "History of the American
People" some years ago and Mr.
Hillrs finds in it rank treason be
cause of a mild expression of th"
author's opinion about the original
legal status of the emancipation pro
clamation, probably shared by niue
tenths of the lawyers in America.
"And," concludes Charles D., "the
statement adds proof to much al
ready at hand that Woodrow Wilson
fcrty years after the war was, and
presumably still is, devoid of sym
pathy for the motive and results of
the civil war." And yet up in
Georgia Tom Watson, rabid, ran
tankerous southerner, has flayed Mr.
Wilson without mercy because in the
same history he, as Watson alleges,
leaned so far northward in his sym
pathies that the south was not a -corded
historical justice. The for
tunes of Taft mu.'t lie (b s'u rat vviieii
l is chief hem hi:i"n makes .limsc'i'
publicly ridiculous in an endeavor t i
invoke ancient war prejudices to be
smirch the loyalty of Woodrow Wilson.

j TEN REASONS.
! Why Wilson Should Be Elected and
! the Tariff Revised.
It is conceded by all that the elec
tion of Governor Wilson means an
immediate downward revision of the
tariff. This is the cause for the
wild outcry in certain quarters
apainst the election of Governor Wil
son. The Wool Trust is crying out
aj ainst the election of Governor Wil
son and the downward revision of
the tariff.
The Cotton Mill Trust is crying
out against the election of Governor
Wilson and the downward revision
of the tariff.
The Harvester Trust is crying out
against the election of Governor
V. !son and the downward revision
i.i the tariff.
The Sugar Trmt is crying on
.list the election of (loveriiO."
.'-o: and the dowt .vard revision
i ' he tariff.
i 'he Steel Trust is crying otr
a . i i list the election of Governor
:'sou anil Hi" downward revision
o the tariff
The Ablriih Itubher Trust is try
ing out against the election of Gov
ernor Wilson and the downward re-vi-ion
of the tariff.
The Guggenheim Smelter Trust h
living out against the election of
Covi-mor Wilson and the downward
r v ision of t be tariff.
George W. I'erkins. political agen.
of the Morgan interests and the as
Miciatod trusts, is crying out against
the election of Governor Wilson and
ti-e downward revision of the tariff.
Frank A. Mousey, press agent of
C'o Steel Trust, is crying out against
ti..- election of Governor Wilson and
i!,e downward revision of the tariff.

th-- "interests'" hope to divert pub
li. attention from the real issues o'"
tin- c;tmp:i in ii. is . ryina out agaius'

These are in unanswerable rea
