Florida Wili Remain Democratic.
From the Philadelphia Record.
Republican talk, which is pure
moonshine, about carrying Florida in
November serves to bring to light one
of the curious features of the so-call-
ed solid South. Unlike the other
Southern States, Florida has no white
population of any considerable size
that is indigenous to the soil. Most
of its inhabitants come either from
other Southern Commonwealths or
from the North and West. Pennsyl-
vania and Ohio have in recent years
contributed thousands of voters to its
people, as have New England and
New York. Yet practically all these
newcomers, even though strongly Re-
publican in their old homes, become
Democrats in Florida. There is a
reason, as the advertisers say. The
white population of the State stands
compactly together in support of
what it considers civilization, and
there is no more prospect of Florida
going Republican than there is of
Vermont going Democratic.
Fine State of Affairs.
The Browns (father and daughter)
had been doing Italy. On returning
Brown, relating his adventures, was
asked if they visited Venice in the
course of their travels.
“I say, Mary,” he asked his daugh-
ter, “did we go to Venice?”
“Why no, dad; don’t you remem-
ber? We got to the station, but there
was a flood on, so we didn’t get out.”

Dust Sweet corn to Prevent Damage
By the Corn Ear-Worm.
It is annoying and even revolting
to find a fat juicy worm in an ear
of corn one is preparing for the table.
The corn ear-worm can be easily and
cheaply controlled by dusting when
the alk is very young. Use powered
arsenate of lead, mixed with finely
powdered sulphur at the rate of three
parts of sulphur to seven parts of
powdered arsenate of lead.
The adult moth lays her eggs on the
silk. When they hatch the young
commence feeding and work toward
the inside of the husks. If the poison
dust is present on the silk it will be
eaten by the worm. :
For further information on the in-
sect pest control, write to the Bureau

partment of Agriculture, Harrisburg.
Not Feeling Much Better.
Many are not being benefitted by the
summer vacation as they should be. Not-
withstanding much out-door life, they are
little if any stronger now than they were,
The tan on their faces is darker and makes
them look healthier, but it is only a mask.
They are still nervous, easily tired. upset
by trifles, and they do not eat nor sleep
well,
What they need is what tones the nerves,
perfects indigestion, creates an appetite,
and makes sleep refreshing. In other
words. they should take Hood's Sarsapa-
rilla. Pupils, teachers, and others gener-
ally will find the chief purpose of the va-
cation best subserved by this great medi-
cine which “builds up the whole system.”
If a cathartic or laxative is needed,
Hood's Pills will give eutire satisfaction.
