A bill for uniform text books In all
the schools of Michigan is one of the
regular biennial features accompany
ing a session OF the legislature. Sena-
tor Davis has brought forward the
measure this time and it has gone
to the senate committee on education.
If the committee should report 1t out
a real contest on the school book ques-
ton is certain TO ensue.
e All of the state normal schools are
having bills introduced TO change
their names to state normal colleges.
Barring of foreign languages in Mich
igan schools of all kinds is sought
in a bill introduced by Rep. Franklin
Moore. Another bill by Rep. j. w.
Moore would allow district school
boards to pay the expenses of pupils
in high schools even where the par
ents do not make formal application.

Weekly Health Talks
Where Most Sickness Begins
and Ends
By FRANKLIN DUANE. M. ID

1t can be said broadly that most human
Ills begin in the stomach and end in the
stomach. Good digestion means gooC
health, and poor digestion means bah
health. The minute your stomach fails to
properly dispose of the food you eat, trou.
bles begin to crop out in various forms.
Indigestion and dyspepsia are the common
est forms, but thin, impure blood, head
aches, backaches, pimples, blotches. dizzi-
ness, belching, coated tongue, weakness,
poor appetite, sleeplessness, coughs, colds
and bronchitis are almost as common.
There is but one way to have good health,
and that is to put and keep your stomach
in good order This is easy to do If you
take DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Dscov-
cry. 1t is a wonderful tonic and blood
purifier, and is so safe to take, for it is
made of roots and herbs. DIR. Pierce, of
Buffalo, N. Y, stands behind this stand
ard medicine, and it is good to know that
90 distinguished a physician is proud to
have his name identified with it. When
you take Golden Medical Discovery, you
are getting the benefit of the experience of
q doctor whose reputation goes all around
the earth. Still Tore, you get temper
ance medicine that contains not a drop OF
slcohol or narcotic of any kind. Long ago
DR.. Pierce combined certain valuable vege-
table ingredients-without the use of alco-
hol-so that these remedies always have
been strictly temperance medicines.
If piles are torturing you, get and use
Pierce's Anodyne Pile Ointment. The
quick relief it gives is hard to believe until
you try it. If constipated DIR. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets should be taken while
using Anodyne Pile Ointment. Few in
deed are the cases which these splendid
remedies will not relieve and usually over
come. They are so good that nearly every
drug store has them for sale.

1t is odd how certain lines of bust
ness are affected by bills at the same
time. The movie" business was get
ting along all by itself in a nice, quiet
way when a couple of measures were
introduced which stirred things up for
the motion picture men. One bill aims
to wipe out the old blue law" of
1876 under which all places of amuse-
ment must be closed on Sundays. A
referendum clause is attached to this
bill, so that il will not become oper-
alive in any community unless a ma
jority of the citizens thereof shall vote
in favor of it.
The other bill would create a board
of censors to watch over all motion
pictures before they are shown in
Michigan. II is provided that the
board consist of three members, at
least one OF whom shall be woman.
The board members would receive
$1,000 a year salary each. Funds for
the maintenance of the department
would come out of the business, as
each 1,000-foot rec. would have to pay
81 for inspection, while each reel of
more than 1000 feet would pay 81.
Slides would cost % cents each.

That Jackson prison should be re-
moved from its present site in the city
Of Jackson to another place in the
state is the opinion of the senate and
house members who investigated the
prison in the past few weeks. The
cost of removal could be met by the
sale of farm lands and city lands be-
longing to the prison, it is held The
committee is opposed to the further
holding of farm lands by the prison
authorities, believing that farm life Is
detrimental to discipline and that
small acreage would be more conduc-
tive to proper life of convicted men
who are serving time. The commit
tee members like the idea of continu-
ing work in the prison canning factory
and brick plant, but do not like any
plan OF prison discipline which allows
even the best of TRUSTEES to be out
side the prison walls after shutdown.
The committee will investigate con-
tract labor at Ionia prison before
making a complete report to- the legis-
lature on the prison system of the
state. Radical changes in Michigan's
system of prison management is ex-
pected to follow.

Somewhat belated, but still early in
the session as compared with numer-
Gus other expected bills, the measure
to carry out the recommendations OF
the commission which spent more
than a year investigating the workings
of the compensation law has been in
troduced in the house by Rep. Carl

signature the bill to compel the plac-

to produce a fight, but Rep. Evans,

through his committee and through
the house in short order. In the sem

immediate effect clause was attached
to it in both houses. 1t is expected
that the governor will attach his sig
nature to it shortly.
