Food and Drugs law in it's relation to
Prepared Medicines, does not refer to
such standard medicines Foley's
Honey and Tar Compound and Foley
Kidney Pills, both of which are true
medicines carefully compounded of in
gradients whose medicinal qualities
are recognized by the medical profess

agents for the diseases they are in

4 FOOL LAW

The county commissioners have been
reminded that there is a state law. an
act Of the legislature of two years ago,
requiring them TO publish in a paper
in the county, if they can get it done
for sum not TO exceed ten dollars for
the entire year. the complete list Of
warrants drawn during the year, their
numbers. amounts, to whom drawn and
for what purpose. The county issues
an average of 500 warrants each month
or 5000 per year. II would require a
double column line to set up each war
rant, ten to the double column inch.
Many of the lines would have to be
doubled on account Of the length Of
the description and the total would
equal 10000 single column lines or 1000
single column inches. The law allows
81 an inch for the first or where only
one insertion Of an advertisement Of
this character. hence the price or
charge would be $4,000. In this county
the Star and Banner would each get
$1,000. The papers would probably be
willing to do this work for much less
than this figure but certainly not for
IS each, all the law allows. Many tax
payers want to see this done and to
know where the county's money goes
but would not like to pay for it. The
smallest county in the state would pay
several hundred dollars for the work
Hillsboro and Duval counties would
probably have to pay $4,000 for the
work, yet this fool law contemplates
that the work can be done for so. Thi:
is a fair sample of many of the laws or
our statute books

DAYS OF BARTER ARE OVER

At one time men traded an ami
mails skin for stone axe, canoe
for a certain amount of labor.
Today there is medium of ex-
change by which all things are
measured. You do not express the
value Of your horse in terms of a
number of days labor. Your home
represents a certain amount of mon
ey.
Everything is valued by our mon
ey standard, yet there is not enough
money in the world to do a strict
" cash business. 1t is through the
help of banks that the immense
volume of business is carried on.
For example, ten men deposit a
hundred dollars each in the bank
Not all of them will want their mon
ey at the same time; one may draw
his money in ten days, another in
thirty days, and so on. The banker
can loan out certain per cent. OF
this money to other men who wish
to improve or stock their farms, buy
new goods for their business OF
build homes. This loaned money
finds its way back to the bank; it is
turned over many times, so that the
one thousand dollars deposited b,
|! the ten men may do bushes:
amounting to ten or twenty thou
sand dollars.
The entire community is benefited
by this system, made possible on1,
by the bank and its confidence il

While the Stars proposition for a

been mostly a joke, it would certainly
be a winner if it could be pulled Off
The game could be confined to five

all have engagements elsewhere. They
could be hauled to the ball park on

number of the friends of Editor
Harris of the Banner are working to
secure his nomination for the office of
probate judge. The only objection ad-
vanced against him is that he is too
kind-hearted to sentence the criminals
that might be brought before him to
punishment adequate to their offenses.
There might be worse objections
Mercy is a noble attribute in the in
dividual, and with the judge it should
always temper justice. But too much
of it is a hardship on the community
as the criminal class is quick to abuse
it. IT Mr.. Harris friends can give good
