TRIP' TO FLORIDA 1,Continued front page 1) From the pier head can be seen the peaceful sailboat, as they gide. by, the swift moor boats and Menne* "Green a aeroplane as its speeds over- head. Here, too, fishermen find a pleasant haunt and old Bill Pelican can be found on almost, any post ready to catch a fish for his dinner. To the left of the pier can be seen the palatial Viney Park hotel where many northern visitors while away happy hours, and which is circled by one of the prettiest driveways in the city. When the North is in the grip of icy Winter more than 100 hotels throw open their wide doors to wel- come those who seek warm climes, and here one may find,hotels suitable to any fancy. There are those of ex- clusive resort type, the commercial ,ype and then the more homelike ones, ell equally beautiful, and ready to serve the northern clientele. St. Petersburg is true to her tourists, but she is not unmindful of the fact that caring for tourists creates a certain amount of industrial life. The city is therefore welcoming good, clean industry, but stemming its trade into channels and locations far re- moved from its recreational environs. And the way that the Chamber of Commerce and the City Fathers are meeting the rush to St. Petersburg of northern capital shows a scientific handling which is a credit to any city such as this wonderful eSayground of Florida. A visit to the Alligator Farm is interesting, showing as it does the native wild life of the Florida jun- gles. There alligators are to be seen from babies a few weeks old to huge monsters of from fifteen to eighteen feet in length and several hundred years old. The attendants call the alligators by name and they answer with alacrity. Amongst the named specimens is Methuselah, the biggest, about sixteen feet in length, and old- est, estimated over four hundred years, also Adam and Eve, Cane and Abel, and the more modern Romeo and Juliet, Mary Pickford, and Doug- las Fairbanks, and last but not least, is fighting Bob Fitzsimmons, who has to his credit bitten off more legs and tails of 'gaitors than any other 'gator what gaits.

The police put the black golfer in durance vile. The negro population of the city is segregated west of 9th Street. As a rule northern visitors secure a cer- tain amount of pleasure in watching the amusing antics of the southern negroes and in listening to "their you all" talk. They are a funny bunch as instanced in: "Mistah! I'se wantah return dese stockin's an get mah money back," said an old colored wo- man as she deposited a package on one of the store counters. "Why? \\last's wrong with them, Aunty ? Didn't they come up to your expec- tations?" asked the clerk. "Lordy! No, sah! Dey didn't hardly come up to mah knees," replied the old col- ored lady. A noticeable feature in the South is the absence of baby carriages on the streets. Women everywhere are to be seen on the streets and in the parks carrying their babies in arms. It is a back to nature proposition and looks good. "Hello!

The snake was in the attitude of attack upon the hunter when shot through the head. The victim of rattlesnake poisoning lives but a few minutes. The Masonic Home near Coffee -Pot Lake is an imposing and costly build- ing, being erected on the sanitorurn pian.

One morning, unable to sleep, he was astir early, and as the clock chimed three was on his way to the river. "Talk about 'em being up early in the country," he muttered, "this is where I put one over the early ris- ers." But upon turning a sharp bend in the road he ran into a farmer. "Good morning," he said, "nice morning?" "Ay, it be," said the farmer, "but it were cold first thing." DINNER STORIES Affable Guest (to the bridegroom) -They tell me the bride has money, Wullie.

MOTHERS PRAISE BABY'S OWN TABLETS THE CANADA STARCH CO, LIMITED - MONTREAL young and charming Marie Louise, who was nineteen at the time, and to whom the very name of Napoleon had been a terror. Within a year ..the son was born and proclaimed King of Rome, Prince of Parma, Na- poleon II, and Duke of Reichstadt. The announcement of the birth sent Paris and, indeed, all France into a frenzy of enthusiasm rarely equalled. It seemed to he believed that the coming of the child guaranteed to another generation of Frenchmen that the triumphs of Napoleon I. would be continued, and that a dynasty of patriotic geniuses had been auspici- ously launched. Napoleon himself wept with., delight, and as the child grew older spent hours playing with him and sharing with him the great war games which he used to work out with blocks upon the floor. The child was three years old when Napoleon embraced him tender- ly and departed upon the Russian campaign which was to prove the be- ginning of his tremendous downfall. He had charged the Queen and the National Guard that the child must never fall into the hands of the enemy. Rather would he throw him into the Seine. He was equally insistent that his child must never be brought up as an Austrian Prince. But later on, when it seemed that his sun was about to set at Elba, he wrote to the Empress, advising her to . take the boy and return to her father's home. Almost instantly he regretted this despairing counsel and wrote to coun- termand it. But i't was too late. Marie Louise was tired of France, and slhe and the child were already on their way to Vienna. There they were received with hardly less en- thusiasm than that which Paris had displayed when L'Aiglon was born. Handsome homes were provided for them. The Emperor showed his fond- ness for the boy and his pleasure at the return of his daughter. But the child's affairs were, in truth, not in the hands of the mother or the grand- father, and still less in the hands of the faAher. Their custody had been subtly transferred to Metternich, the Chancellor, and deadly foe of France. He saw in the Eaglet a hostage. He resolved that never should the child leave Austria. Mrs. L. M. Brown, Walton, N.S., says: -"I cannot recommend Baby's Own Tablets too highly. 1 have found them invaluable for the ailments of little ones." Mrs. Brown's testimony is the same as that of thousands of other mothers who have used the Tab- lets. To use them once is a sure guar- antee that they will always be kept in the home as long as there are babies or young children to be cared for. The Tablets are a laxative -mild but thorough in action -which never fail to regulate the stomach and bowels; relieve constipation and indigestion ; break up colds and simple fevers and make the dreaded teething period easy. In fact you banish all the minor ills from which little ones suf- fer. The Tablets are sold by inedi- eine dealers or by mail at 26 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

His ashes have reposed ever since in the church of the Carthusian monks in Vienna, and it is now proposed that they be brought back to France and deposited finally in the tomb of the Invalides, where lie the bones of his father. Noted French airmen, it is said, will fly to Vienna and dramatically return with the dust that has never been forgotten in France in all these years. Nor will the surviving members of the Hapsburg family object to the removal, since the sentiment of France seems to he so strong. Though L'Aiglon was half Austrian, the part orf him that promised great- ness was French, and the sadness of his few troubled years on earth was caused by his French blood. It is fitting that he should be reunited to his illustrious father who saw him last. when he was a baby of three, hut who probably loved him more than ever he loved another human HAVE state and training him into a loyal Austrian nonentity began. But it proved difficult. Miraculously the prince remembered the games that the baby had played With a clumsily father. He displayed almost an in- tutive genius for military science. He was resentful of all control, violent and imperious. Phis son of the Cor- sican adventurer seemed to have in his blood more of passionate royalty than the scion of 'half a hundred gen- erations of dull Hapsburgs. But he was unhappy. In truth, he was the Caged Eaglet that Rostand wrote a- bout. His mother neglected him. He tried dutifully to be fond of his Aus- trian grandfather. He who had been a lusty baby became a sickly boy, an anaemic young men. He had only one friend, an Austrian captain, who had written a pamphlet on Waterloo, in which he defended Napoleon. He fell ill, and death came swiftly in the end to the youth of twenty-one, at whose cradle, as one historian said, all the world stood, but whose death- bed was deserted by even his own mother. Druggist Tells Easy Way To End Bladder Weakness This wily old plotter understood also the pleasure -loving disposition of Marie Louise. None knew better than he that her marriage to a man more than twice her age had been an affair of state and that her heart might never have had an awakening. So he summoned the handsome Gener- al Count Neipperg to accompany Ma- rie Louise, who was about to visit Aix. He instructed him to make him- self as ingratiating as possible to gain the confidence of the Empress and foil any project that might arise in her mind to join Napoleon at Elba. The dashing General succeeded only too well. Marie Louise fell in love with him and years later they were said to have been secretly married. But in the meantime she abandoned whatever idea she might have had of joining her husband, and managed to find life entirely agreeable at a coun- try residence, where she was attend- ed with more or less respectful ardor heing. by Neipperg.
