It has been my desire to write to
my Ledger friends since my return to |
Daytona, after a pleasant summer |
spent under the paternal roof. My
time is very much taken up with my
school duties.
During the holidays 1 attended the
State Teacher’s Convention in St.
Augustine. Visited all the places of
j interest; saw the oldest house in the
Fnited States, was in the wireless
t t 'l graphy station. We were shown
I through the Ponce De Leon Hotel,
and those who so desired were pre
sented to Mr. and Mrs. Henry M.
! Flagler, owners of the Florida East
Cost railway from Jacksonville to
Miami, and also several big hotels on
) iii(' oust coast.
The Ponce De Leon, St. Augustine:
the Ormond, Daytonia; the Royal
I Ponciana, Palm Beach, and the Royal
Palms, Miami, do not open until Jan

in the year.

had a narrow escape from consump

business man of Kershaw, S. C. “I
had run down in weight to 135
pounds, and coughing was constant
both by day and by night Finally I
began taking Dr. King's New Discov
ery, and continued this for about six
months, when my cough and lung
trouble were entirely gone and I
was restored to my normal weight,
170 pounds.” Thousands of persons
are healed every year. Guaranteed
