Questions nnd Answers.
Bunion-I have n bunion OF some six
years standing. What kind OF opera
tion would cure IT? Is the bone. or
just tho flesh operated on? Would il
be dangerous?
Answer-The radical cure consists of
excelsior or removal of the heads OF
both bones entering into tho formation
or the Joint. permitting restoration OF
fairly normal conditions. The opera
ton Is less dangerous than the bunion
Itself Is. Two weeks of disability. and
perhaps three or four weeks OF more or
less difficulty in walking. usually fol-
low tho operation. but the final re-
suits are very satisfactory

weeks. The doctor prescribed some ar
senical medicine. Is that n good
remedy? How long should II take FOR
her to get we'll? Should she be idle or
keep at work during the treatment?
Answer-It is good remedy. She
may recover in three months or IT may
take much longer, according to her
OWN rccuperative powers. Generally
rest. with only such exercise as the
doctor deems safe for the heart is the
right management.

is he made 4 bang up legislator ard

Numbering. 1t IS brought To him IN

The Race For Senator

The Race For Senator
Orlando Reporter Star: The Pa
latka News believes that Governor
Trammell will win in the race for SEN
ator. The News is a warm admirer
of the governor and will give him
its best support. The Lakeland Tel
egram also is in line for the governor.
The Starke Telegraph recently an
nounced for Nathan Bryan and the
Ocala Star takes the position that the
junior senator should have a second
term. It is assumed that the Tampa
papers will suppot Perry Wall. 1t
IS certain the Times will actively op-
a pose Governor Trammell. The Desc
to county papers will probably fall in
line for General Gilchrist. None Of
the candidates has announced his plat
form Of principles and those newspa-
pers that have thus early taken 4
stand have done so on personal or
sectional grounds. The primary is
nearly 4 year in the future and ample
time will be had for the candidates
to make their positions on public
matters and for other DEVELOPMENTS
to take place which might affect the
standing Of each. The opinion Of
some is that the governors entry will
insure the election Of Senator Bryan
by splitting up the vote between the
south Florida candidates. While
there is 4 good chance for such q
thing to occur there is no certainty
that this prediction will be verified.
The personal popularity of Governor
Tramnell is 4 factor to be considered,
and the business and family connec-
tons Of Perry Wall are not to be
shifted at General Gilchrist is gener-
ally not credited with being much in
the race, but even ne has strong sup
port which may develop unexpectedly
as the campaign progresses.
