' l One of the most important acts of the recent, session of the Honda Conference of the M. K. church, south, in so far as this city is con cerned, was tile choice of l'alatka as the place for assembling its next an nual session. The olticial hoard of St. James chinch extended the invitation to the conference through l'astor Gates and the conference accepted the invita tion in preference to similar ones from Jacksonville, Gainesville and Tallahassee. This means that during tho second week of December, l'.KHI, l'alatka will he the bead centre of Methodism in Florida. Kvery Methodist pastor in the state will Im here and also many distinguished laymen. It is la years since t lie conference assembled in l'alatka and it was time Ibis city again received the hem fit. which always attends and follows in the wake (,t such a gutlier- i 1 or. The homes of the good people of the city will he opened wide to these Christian workers and they will be made to feel a welcome that will be ro.val and sincere. l'alatka once came near to being made a permanent center of Metho dist inlluence. The church had de cided to change the location of its college from I.eeshurg. There was a I committee of three on location, two id' whom favored a site on Palatka Heights. Tbeie was just one serious objection the liar rooms out Lemon street, which student noys auo. gins would be obliged to pass daily. This one serious objection lost l'a latka the Florida Conference college, 1111 institution which will at present outclass the State I'niversity in point of attendance.

Do jour own thinking. Do not ask your family physician to advise you as to whether you should see an osteopath, as he Is incompetent, being a graduate of a different school of therapy. It is not a mutter oi any couseinn ou to me whether there are live or .ril)0 med ical doctors in Palatka, as my patients are numbered among that class who have failed to get relief, also those who are tired of drugs.
