WHAT The KIDNEYS DO
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy

All the blood in the body passes through
the kidneys once every three minutes.
The kidneys filter the blood. They work
night and day. When healthy they re-
move about 500 grains Of impure matter
daily, when unhealthy some part of this
impure matter is left in the blood. This
brings on many diseases and symptoms
pain in the back, headache, nervous
ness, hot, dry skin, rheumatism. gout,
gravel, disorders of the eyesight and
hearing, dizziness, irregular heart, de-
bility, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits in
the urine, etc. But if you keep the
filters right you will have no trouble
with your kidneys.
John M. McCrOry, living on Main ST.,
Titusville, Fla, says: my back was
very lame and sore and when stopped
or lifted anything / found it very diff
cult to regain an erect position. IcOuld
not assume a position at night that
was comfortable and | felt miser-
able: The kidney secretions did not act
in their normal manner and gave me
much annoyance. Finally Doan's Kid
ney Pills came to my attention, and
began taking them according to direc-
tiOns. They proved to be Just what
required, soon eradicated the backache
and banished the lameness and soreness.
The action of the kidney secretions was
also corrected, and | feel better in every
way. l sincerely recommend Doan s
Kidney Pills to any person in need of a
reliable kidney remedy"

Wants Change in Pardon Board
State of Florida, Executive Office,

Tallahassee, April 13, 1909.
Gentlemen of the Legislature:
Your attention is respectfully in
vited to the following:
Section II, Article w of the con-
stitution, as amended, reads as fol-
lows:
The governor, secretary of state,
comptroller, attorney general and
commissioner of agriculture, or a
major part of them, of whom the
governor shall be one, may, upon
such conditions and with such limita-
tions as they may deem proper, remit
fines and forfeitures, commute pun
ishment and grant pardon after con-
viction, in all cases except treason
and impeachment, subject to such
regulations as may be prescribed by
law relative to the manner of apply
ing for pardons."
1t is recommended that this amend
ment be amended by striking out the
word attorney general and substi-
tuting therefor the words Estate
treasurer.
AS petitions for pardon are now
presented to the board of pardons,
the attorney for the petitioner sets
up various reasons why the pardon
should be granted. There is no one
to present the reasons to the board
why the pardon should not be grant
ed. The object of this proposed
change is that statute may in fu-
ture be passed directing the attorney
general, under such rules and regu-
lations as may be passed by said board
or by the legislature, to represent
the state in all petitions for pardon.
The state is now represented in every
court except the court OF last resort,
the pardonlng board.
1t appears, from reading the con-
stitution, that the board has now suf-
ficlent power to establish such con-
ditions, with such limitations and re-
strictions as they may deem proper"
1t is, therefore, not deemed necessary
to pass any law prescribing condi-
tions, limitations and restrictions.
Very respectfully,
ALBERT w. GILCHRIST,
Governor.

Quoting in full a recent editorial
from the Pensacola Journal, in which
allusion was made to the opinion of
Judge Bullock, of 0cala, concerning
the need Of a constitutional conven-
ton composed of delegates especially
qualified for the work, the Miami
News-Record makes the following
pertinent remarks:
The Journals appeal for consti-
tutional convention, backed by the
opinion of Judge Bullock, is a astrong
presentation of the subject. That
the question is a pressing one is
shown by the many resolutions al
ready introduced in the legislature,
looking to the adoption of resolutions
calling for more amendments to the
present constitution. 1t should be
remembered by the voters of Florida
that not one of the many proposed
amendments to the constitution, as
offered by the legislature, since the
session of 1901, has been adopted by
the people. The people have said
time again, that they would have no
more amendments, and it would look
as though further propositions look
ing to that end would be futile
worse than futile, foolishness and
child's play. 1t is apparent that be-
fore the legislature adjourns there
will be many propositions made to
change our present constitution, but
the part of wisdom would be, so it
would appear to the sensible mind,
to gather all these and other propo-
sitions up in one measure, together
with the present constitution and
make a new, clean, progressive and
comprehensive organic act.

A Decided Change

In the senate Saturday just before
the close of the session, Senator Har-
ris, of Key West, introduced what
will probably become "disturber of
the peace" that is, reapportion-
ment bill. A reading of the bill does
not disclose any of the Objectionable
features, since the apportionment
appears to be equitable and in ac-
cordance with population, but it is an
utter impossibility for any man to
prepare an apportionment bill that
will suit all ideas, and this one is
hardly likely to perform any miracle
in that regard. Therefore a fight is
looked for from counties which, by
the reapportionment, will lose any
representation numerically.
The proposed change throws Osce-
ola, Brevard and st. Lucie into the
thirtieth senatorial district.

The test case which the liquor in
terests in Alabama brought to de-
termine the legality of Alabama's
prohibition law, resulted in a decision
by the supreme court that the law is
constitutional and valid. All of the
judges concurred in the decision.
The bill was attacked on constitution
al grounds. This is the second time
the law has been the subject of an
attack by the liquor men, and in each
case it has been successfully defended

We understand that the Eau Gallie
Record ceased publication with last
weeks issue. Editor Roesch got out
a good local paper and made a brave
effort in the nearly two years time
that he managed the Record so well,
and if Brevard county hadn't already
been overwofked in the newspaper
business he would probably have met
with the success that he well merited.
Five weekly papers in a county with
less than 1000 population is entirely
too much. There isn't a county in
the state that can put up such a
showing.

The New York Produce News says
local commission men in the past
have had their shares of trouble, but
the one now confronting them is
about the limit. Growers of Florida
ship lot of their produce to the
wholesale liquor dealers in return
for whiskey. These liquor dealers
will sell this produce just to get the
price Of the liquor out of it, which in
some cases is a great deal lower than
the commission men can afford to sell
and make a cent. 1t is hoped the
growers will stop this practice and
send their produce to a legitimate
commission house and then if they
need the liquor, place their order
with the liquor house.

Twenty-nine years ago this date
the first issue of The STAR was print
ed in Titusville. THE STAR COM
mences its thirtieth year with this
number. During all this time it has
been under the present management
and ownership. We mention this
fact modestly for it is rather unus-
ual for weekly newspaper to con-
tinue so long under one management.
This is not achieving greatness, but
rather the satisfied with
making fair showing-but it does
reflect staying qualities far above the
average. The STAR has never had
a mushroom growth nor experienced
a dieback. 1t has been a constant
and continuous success from the first
year of its existence, and for a long
term of years it has been upon a SOL
id and enduring business basis. We
hope with the continued help and
support of our many patrons and
friends to round up goodly number
of cycles yet to come.

'COQUINA CROSS DISCOVERED
UnUaFthed at the Mcconnell Place In
st. Augustine

Evidence to the effect that Ponce
de Leon discovered Florida in 1913
and not in 1912 has been unearthed
at Mrs. McConnell's place, north of
St. Augustine, which was formerly
the Williams place.
The following article on this very
interesting subject is taken from the
st. Augustine Record Of Monday:
The former owner knew of the rel
les on the property, but did not dis
turb them. Mrs. Mcconnell recently
discovered a coquina cross, placed by
Ponce de Leon to mark the spot
where he found a spring of fresh
water. The cross is about five feet
long and about four crossways. 1t
was built apparently in the ground,
as the blocks of coquina are cemented
together and the form of the cross
has been preserved. The coquina
blocks are badly worn from moisture
of the ground, but are otherwise
perfect as to alignment. Two blocks
of coquina which Mrs. Mcconnell has
unearthed contain the date of Ponce
de Icons first visit. One of these
blocks contains the number 81" and
the other has the figure ''3' cut in
the front. These two blocks were
together and two other adjoining
blocks were broken. The theory is
advanced that the century was con-
tained on the other tablets, but al
though they contained figures of
some kind they were so badly shat
tered that the figures could not be
deciphered.
Mrs. Mcconnell has a metal casket
which she found a few feet below the
surface of the ground. In digging
out the stump of big palmetto tree
workman unearthed the casket. 1t
contained parchment stating that a
cross had been planted in the imme-
diate vicinity. The cross, however,
had been located years ago by Mr..
Williams, but he, believing that it
was of recent origin, covered it up
again. The parchment gave Mrs.
Mcconnell clue as to the value of
the cross and she succeeded in loca-
ting it and has just had a curbing built
around it, boarding it over so that it
can be viewed with very little trouble.
Historians differ as to the date of
Ponce de Icons landing here, but the
best authorities claim that he discov-
cred Florida in 1913. The cross is
undoubtedly a genuine relic of the
earliest days in st. Augustine's his
tory and papers left by Ponce de Leon
and now.held in the archives of Spain
refer to the cross and the casket. In
his reports Ponce de Leon did not
mention the year of his discovery of
Florida and this omission has led to
much controversy over the year.
The tablets of cOquina will satisfac-
torily settle the point in the minds
of many who have seen them and are
versed in the early history of this
state.

From MAUD. {"

Come into the garden, Maud
For the black bat, night, has flown;
Come into the garden, Maud,
l am here at the gate alone;
And the woodbine spices are waited abroad
And the musk Of the rose is blown.
All night have the roses heard
The flute, violin, bassoon:
All night has the easement jessamine stirr'd
To the dancers dancing in tune;
Till silence fell with the waking bird,
And hush with the setting moon
Queen rose Of the rosebud garden of girls
Come hither, the dances are done.
In gloss Of satin and glimmer of pearls,
Queen lily and rose in one;
Shine out little head, summing over with curls
To the flowers, and be their sun.

How to Spend Life.

We should I'll the hours with the sweetest
things,
If we had but a day;
We should drink alone at the purest springs
In our upward way;
We should love with lifetime's love in an
hour,
If our hours were few;
We should rest not for dreams, but for
fresher power
To be and to do.
We should bind our weary, wanton wills
To the clearest light;
We should keep our eyes on the heavenly
hills,
IF they lay in sight;
We should trample the pride and the dis
content
Beneath our feet;
We should take whatever a good God sent
With a trust complete.

POEMS FROM TENNYSON.
Tears, Idle Tears.
From The Princess. /"

From The Princess
Tears, idle tears. I know not what they
mean,
Tears from the depth of some divine despair
Rise in the heart, and gather to the eyes,
In looking on the happy Autumn-he1ds,
And thinking of the days that no more.
Fresh as, the first beam glittering on
sail,
That brings our friends up from the under
world,
Sad as the last which reddens over one
That sinks with all we love below the verge;
SO sad, so fresh, the days that are no
more.
"Ah' sad land and strange as in dark Summer
The earliest pipe of half-awakened birds.
To dying ears, when unto dying eyes
The easement slowly grows a glimmering
square;
So sad, So strange, the days that are no
more.
Dear as remembered kisses after death.
And sweet as those by hopeless fancy
feigned
On lips that are for others; deep as olive.
Deep as first love, and wild with all regret;
Death in Life, the days that are no
more.

There has fallen a splendid tear
From the passion flower at the gate.
She is coming, my dove, my dear;
She is coming, my life, my fate.
The red rose cries, 'She is near, she is near"
And the white rose weeps, 'sShe is late;
The larkspur listens, 81 hear, l hear;
And the lily whispers, q wait"
She is coming, my own, my sweet;
Were it ever so airy tread,
My heart would hear her and beat,
Were it earth in an earthly bed;
Ny dust would hear her and beat,
Had I lain for century dead,
Would start and tremble under her feet,
And blossom in purple and red.

And we wouldn't be surprised if we should

That an aeropane is coming over seas.
We navigate the sky, sailing low, SAILING

We can mount and turn and hover the
