first symptom of kidney trouble that
| had, was pain in my back. Then
had headaches and dizzy spells. The
kidney action was irregular and gave
me lot of annoyance. Nothing did
me any good until l got Doan's Kid

They completely relieved the all
ments. The kidneys got normal and
the pains left. That happened two
years ago and l gave testimonial
Since then I have used Doan's Kid

Saginew Voters end Bitter Fight For
New Charter.

In one of the hottest political fights

a vote of 4,412 for and 3,212 against.
In 10 out Of the IL east side wards

a mayor to be elected at large on a

Action and Not Talk is Needed.

Hardly day passes that someone does not
speak to the writer respecting the attitude of
some of the people of our city towards public i'm
provements. They refer to the constant talk on
the part of certain ones respecting the need of
new people to come to Cedar City and establish
new industries, yet who will do nothing them
selves although abundantly in position to do so.
Particular reference is made to those who own
land which is needed for business and close-in
residence purposes who are able to build, but who
will not do So neither will they sell their lands at
a price that is at all reasonable, and which in
several instances is positively exhorbitant There
is crying need right now for several new resi-
dences. in order to care for those who are living
in furnished rooms for no other reason than that
house is not to be had. Long before house is to
be vacated applications for it are numerous and
as a result rents here are higher than in any town
of similar size in the state.
In the average city of 100000 population or
more. house of three or four rooms, with modern
conveniences, including electric lights, bath and
hot and cold water, may be rented for from SIP to
$40 month, with an average of about $16 Here
in Cedar City these prices are asked and had -
for the rooms minus any of the above convenient

than ever before, and the consequent demands
that are certain to follow, how can we expect to

THING instead of talking. The opportunity is

our actions Continue to obstruct the city's pro-
gress while constantly talking about new in
dustres and more people. These things will

Pioneer Day.

Another annual celebration Of Pioneer Day
has just passed; another year has been added to
the age of those who blazed the way in these
parts for the younger people OF today. The
dangers they encountered, the hardships they
endured, the Inconvenience they experienced
in those days before the advent of the modern
inventions. are now but matters of history. AL
though the incidents of those days are FURNISHED
indellibly on the minds of the old folks, who no
doubt look back upon them with vision as
vivid as if they had occurred but yesterday. they
can never be fully appreciated by the younger
people of today. ~.
However, it is fit and proper that their
efforts should be commemorated by one day of
celebration 1t should not be celebrated strictly
in the sense that the word is usually understood
instead it should be day to paying respects to
the aged and in making them comfortable, that
they NAV know that they are not forgotten al
though no longer able to take the same active
part in the affairs of the community that was
such pleasure for them in the days gone by.
Let we who are younger join enthusiastically
in doing homage to those who have earned re-
spite from their labors. Besides, it is a blessed
privilege to honor the aged The memories of
this day bring back. the thoughts expressed by
the poet in the following excerpts:
II wandered to the village, Tom,
And stood beneath the tree
Whose spreading bows so often
Had sheltered you and me.
Down by the spring upon an elm.

PHYSICAL Fitness for Business Men
HABITS AND STRENGTH.
BY Frank A. Gotch, Worlds Wrestling Champion.

When we mention habit we think
of tobacco, liquor. cocaine, morphine,
opium and other drugs. We very
seldom think of improper breathing as
being a habit, nor are We apt to
classify overeating or overindulgence in
any other line as q habit.
The truth is they are all members
of the habit family, and whenever they
have reached a stage that interferes
with physical processes they become
deterrent influences in the matter of
physical exercise
The overeater does not feel like. get
ting down to systematic physical labor.
The individual who does not breathe
properly never feels like going into a
gymnasium. To a person of this class
exercise is little short Of torture.
The easiest way and perhaps the
safest way, is to correct these evil
habits Of living. and then take up
the exercise later on. Deep breathing
does its part, and light eating of the
proper foods assists as far as 1T can.
There is no question whenever exer-
else is followed by an Indulgence in
harmful habits of eating or living, i'm
proper ventilation, or insanitary con-
ditions around the house. the value of
the exercise itself is interfered with.
1t would be very difficult for a mason
to build a stone wall II somebody came
around every night after his work was
done and Clipped of portions Of the
stone. or tore down parts OF the wall.
So It is in physical fitness. Building
,ip Is one thing. and the preservation Of
what has been built 10 another thing.
There are many harmless habits that

PRODUCES "TELEPH0NE EAR"
Ailment Is Caused by Constant
Strain.
Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.

Foreign Correspondence OF The Star.
LONDON, December %, 1912.
Telephone ear ia a form of ear
trouble due to constant use of the tele-
phone.
1.-THE ailment is really a form of ear
strain" an aural surgeon who has re-
Gently noted several cases explains. If
the eyes are fatigued in one particular
way. for example. through overwork in
very brilliant light, images Of these lights
continue to be seen even in the dark, or
when the eyes are closed. In the same
way, the person whose ear nerves are
constantly being irritated by telephone
sounds may, as q result OF fatigue of the
nerves. hear buzzing and clicking sounds
continuously when he Is not using the
instrument In other cases the irrita-
bility toward this class Of sound may
result In temporary deafness.
Without doubt the sudden jars to the
auditory nerves brought on by the ear
being constantly on the alert for the
telephone bell. the painful buzz Of the
engaged signal. and the straining to
hear a bad voice. all tend to produce
ear strain. Luckily the only treatment
needed Is abstention from the use of the
telephone for few days"
