He told me perfectly frankand clear that the train was headedfor Winter Haven and Bartow, and Itold him that it was going about itthe wrong way. That I thought wewere backing into Tampa, and to ver-ify his statement in a few minuteswe pulled into Winter Haven back-wards, and there standing on the de-

pot platform was Miriam ThompsonBailey, her husband and baby Elea-nor. They were just as glad to seeme as I was to see them, and fromthat on I proceeded to visit to myheart's content.

Mr. H. M. Hampton of this city isnotonly a lawyer of marked abilitybut an enterprising farmer. Somemonths ago, Mr. Hampton, who bythe way was raised on a farm, andhas never weaned himself from a loveof the soil, decided it was his duty,and it would be his pleasure, to addto the productiveness of this section.He bought from various parties nearMontague tracts of land aggregating305 acres and combined them intoquite a goodsized farm. Mr. Hamp-ton displayed good judgment in pick-ing the location and has as fine atract of upland as can be seen any-where. Part of it was old land which

The churches display a very liberalspirit. Instead of meeting in a hotstuffy church on a summer night,they all with the exception of theCatholics and Baptists, bunched to-

gether and secured the use of thepublic park for Sunday night andeach Sunday night they would holda union service in the open air. TheMethodist minister would discourseone Sunday, the Christian preacherwould tell his story the next Sunday,and so on through the Sunday eachdenominational preacher would takehis turn to talk to the assembledmultitude. It was a very populaimove and the park was crowded oneach occasion.

I also found Southern College wellrepresented in this little town. Theprincipal of the high school is a grad-uate from Southern, the Methodistpreacher is a graduate from Southernand Southern was well represented inother lines and branches.

The best method for cleansing the wholeintestinal tract and urging the liver into activity is

to take as much outdoor exercise as possible, drinkhot water before meals, and take a pleasant, laxative,vegetable pill occasionally. Such a one is made upof May-appl- e, leaves of aloe, root of jalap; madeinto a sugar-coate- d pill that gives tone to the bowels.This was first made nearly fifty years ago, and sold byalmost all druggists as Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.Such simple means will prevent auto-intoxicatio- n.
