Mexico prior to the breaking out of
the unpleasantness in 1846. A con considerable
siderable considerable portion of the people in that
part of the state are Mexicans either
by birth or descent, and the ignorant
greasers may really suppose they can
conquer and hold the eight or nine
counties composing it, and which
have a much greater area than some
eastern states. All the general gov government

have him with them even for so short

a time.

On Tuesday afternoon Mrs. W. R

Dedman gave a farewell party and
handkerchief shower in honor of Miss
Annette Gist, who left Thursday, the

12th, for San Francisco, and will sai

from there the 25th for Japan. The

guests, fifteen in number, were high highly
ly highly entertained by a floral contest.

Each question when answered repre
sented a flower. The booby prize, J

bottle of catsup, was won by Mrs

Joseph I. Gist that she might "catch
up." The refreshments consisted o:

ice tea and appetizing sandwiches

such as only Mrs. Dedman is known
tc make. Each guest was presented
with a bunch of forget-me-nots. Upon
leaving each one pledged their word

they had had a most enjoyable aft
emoon.

Mr. Boulware and son Robert, who

have been sick for several weeks with

fever are convalescent.

THE CLERK GUARANTEED IT

"A customer came into my store the
other day and said to one of my clerks,
'have you anything that will cure di diarrhoea?'
arrhoea?' diarrhoea?' and my clerk went and got
him a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and
said to him, 'if this does not cure you,
I will not charge you a cent for it., So
he took it home and came back in a
day or two and said he was cured,"

Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer, the best,
purest and most healthful of ALL
summer drinks, at Johnny's Place, tf

street I see that Sister Mary E. Foggs

house is closed, and learn that she is

enjoying herself in a part of Gorgia,
where watermelon and chicken and all

kinds of good things grow twelve
months in the year. I also miss the

imposing height of Mr. Sam Millican

from the streets. And one face that

I do sincerely miss and will always

remember, is good old Uncle JohnIIaf

ner, who ended his earthly career by

haneincr himself. Poor Uncle John

meant well by all the world, and gave
every one a square deal, but they took

advantage of the old gentleman's big
heartedness" and handed him the short

end of the stick, and it broke his heart.

Oak Knoll aJso appears deseKed

and Mr. and Mrs. Adam Hafner are

enjoying the hospitalities of Centra

Pennsylvania.

Another face that I do not miss is

that of big, good natured John Lyles

He has not gone, but has added to,

and now it is Mr. and Mrs. John Lyles.

One face that I miss and it pains

me not to see it, is that of Mrs. Ella
Lyles Fant, who has lain so long in

the hospital at Ocala, and who is mak

ing such a brave struggle to gain her

health and get on her feet once more,

Another face that I missed by being
away, was Fisk Bryant, who during

my absence made a trip to Belleview
fiom Missouri bringing a brand new

bride with him, showing her off to his i

home folks, and then flitting away to
his western home, leaving people to
wonder at what a fine big man he had
grown to be. I will never forget the
trip that I made down on the Caloosa Caloosa-ha
ha Caloosa-ha tehee river on a steam boat that
was run by gasoline, and that carried
fish for a living, and of which Fisk
was the captain, and I was a passeng passenger,
er, passenger, going up into the Everglades near
Lake Okeechobee. We meet people
we know all over the world. Good
luck to you Fisk.
I need some dress making, and up upon
on upon inquiring about Mrs. John T.
Hames, learned that she has hied her herself
self herself away to her old home in South
Carolina. The first night that I was
home I looked very expectantly to see
Freeman Hames smiling visage ap appear
pear appear at the doorway to fill his regular
appointment, pumping the piano-player,
for our evening entertainment, and
when he did not appear, I wondered
why and was told that he had gone out
into the world to carve his own path
to fame and fortune, and that he was
up in Virginia, making good money,
and I know that he will do well where where-ever
ever where-ever he goes.
Thi3 leaving home habit among our
young people is growing contagious,
for the last person whom I ever sus suspected
pected suspected of leaving home and traveling
far, was Bennie Shedd, and now he is
up by the salt water in South Carolina.
And Folke Sjoberg going in the oppo opposite
site opposite direction is having a good time in
Chicago.
I also miss Mrs. James J. Nelson,
who is sojourning along the beautiful
historical Hudson river in New York
state, while Mrs. Ruth Perry Nelson
is at her old home on Long Island
Sound in Connecticut.
When I went away I left Dad Hardi Hardi-son
son Hardi-son laying sick at the home of his
daughter, Mrs. Pratt, and nursed
carefully by Mrs. Northy, and now I
find him back in his own home, over
in Hardison's addition to Belleview,
hale and hearty, while Mrs. Northy is
in Atlanta, and Mrs. Pratt is just re recovering
covering recovering from a severe illness, brought
on by the long siege of day and night
nursing.
I also miss the cheerful personality
of jolly Mrs. Hopkins who is dividing
her time between Bridgeport, Conn.,
and points on the Hudson river.

Mrs. Bohanon, who could hardlj Y.

wait to tell roe that she had lought

he James Collins place, just north of .-.

the depot, by jimminy, and that Delle- i
view was her home now and for ever

more, and the farm life for me. j M

After all this absence and coming''-'

back to this deserted town, perso'i

after person plied me with the ques-

tion, "would I soon be writing for the "'

Star again?" And that good old ally'

and faithful supporter of the Star, Mr. J '.

Isaac Nichols, was one of the first to
greet me and press $2 into my hand

for a continuation of the Star, and to
express his pleasure at my being home
once more. It is friendship like thi3
that counts and that makes life worth
the living an?is what makes the world

go 'round.

Another thing to add to my utter

bewilderment and astonishment when

asked whose furniture was being

shipped away, Prof. A. B. Connor ap

peared upon the scene pompous and

dignified as ever and informed me

it was his furniture that he was mov moving
ing moving to Inverness, where he had accept accepted
ed accepted the principalship of the largest

school in Citrus county, with a good

faculty of teachers under him, and

with Mrs. Connor as assistant to the
principal. The world do move! And

Prof. Connor is one of the movers, and
we will watch him with interest as he
climbs the ladder to fame and for

tune in the school world of Florida.

In changing from the busy turmoil

of school life at Gainesville back to the

quiet monotony of home life in Belle Belleview,
view, Belleview, which is to be compared to jump

ing into a cool pool of water on a hot

day, and to take the edge off, and let

myself down easy to the regular rou routine
tine routine of a hum-drum existence, I picked
out the biggest, fattest, jolliest girl in

the whole school and brought her
home with me, and when Miss Olive
Smith of Bartow left me at the depot

last Monday afternoon and waved au

revoir, I said good bye to school life J

and resigned myself to my fate.
