DAILY HEALTH TALKS
What Doctor Pierce Has
Done For Humanity!
BY DOCTOR CRIPPS.

1t has always seemed to me thai
DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N, Y, should be
placed near the top when a list o:
Americas great benefactors is written.
He studied and conquered human dis
eases to degree that few realize.
Whenever he found remedy that over
came disease. he at once announced il
in the newspapers ard told where il
could be bought at small price. He
did not follow the usual custom of
keeping the ingredients secret, so that
Che rich only could afford to buy the
medicine, but openly printed the name
of each root and herb he used. And
so to-day the names of DR. Pierce and
his medicines are widely known, and
they stand for better health and better
citizenship.
One OF this great physicians mos
successful remedies is known as Docto!
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. These are
little, sugar-coated pills, composed of
Mayapple, leaves of aloe, root of jalap-
things that Nature grows in the ground.
These Pellets are safe because they
move the bowels gently, leaving no bad
after effects, as SO many pills do.
Ferry often they make a person who
takes them feel like new man or
woman, for they cleanse the intestines
ST hard, decayed and poisonous matter
that accumulates when one is costive.
If you are constipated, by all means
60 to your druggist and get some of
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They
may prove to be the very thing your
system requires to make you well and
happy.

COTTON BEARS
FLOP AS TREND
TURNS UPWARD
By Victor Barron.
market Correspondent of The
Times Recorder.)

market Correspondent of The
Times Recorder)
ATLANTA, March 31-After falling
more than $50 points net lower dur
ing the forepart of last week as the
result of unfavorable news from
abroad and the sharp break in foreign
exchange, together with a resumption
OF activity on the part of the old bear
crowd, cotton made remarkable IN
ward progress during the closing
days Of the week, nearby deliveries
on the New York exchange reaching
new high for the week, or more than
LOU points above Wednesdays close.
The market had worked into
strong technical condition as the re-
suit of the selling early in the week
and the bull crowd experienced little
difficulty in turning values upward
Extremely reassuring news from Pa
rls, expectations of a sudden peace.
coupled with the posting of a bullish
crop and acreage estimate by private
authority, combined with a revival of
business in the dry goods markets and
Continued unfavorable weather and
strong spot markets, furnished the
bulls with sufficient ammunition to
start the ball a-rolling.
soldout longs rushed to re-
buy their liquidated commitments and
shorts flocked over to the buying side,
while Liverpool kept cables humming
with buying orders. Spot firms and
wire houses also supplied some of
the buying orders. Offerings came prin-
cipally from Wall Street and ring
professionals. Some selling was cred
tied to the New Orleans crowd.
The acton Of the New York mar
ket apparently indicates that the me-
tropolis crowd have either been con-
verted to the constructive side of the
market by virtue of the bullish crop
situation, or is playing for a false
rise that they may trap the Southern
farmer into over-planting. The latter
theory is not out of reason when the
course of the market at this time
year ago is recalled. Before April 6
last year values rose to more than Sc
cents, but Immediately afterwards the
country witnessed an unprecedented
selling movement with the result that
values tumbled almost 10 cents
pound in less than a month 1t is to
be hoped that any material rise will
not change the attitude of Southern
farmers one iota this season.
Final prices on the New York ex-
change Friday showed old contracts
Is to 68 points net lower, while new
style options displayed a gain of 2
points on May and decline of "a to
46 points on more deferred positions
for the week Old contracts at New
Orleans closed the week % to IS
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1919-03-31

points down and new contracts were
Al to 40 points off.
While some are inclined to believe
the trade really is afraid that the
South will grow a meager crop, others
argue that the old bear party is not
whipped and will grasp any oppor-
tunlty to send values down However,
the Watkins estimate of a decrease in
the acreage of 159 per cent. ,indii
eating crop of 100000 bales from
an acreage of 31,177,OOO acres, while
much higher than the majority of con-
serVatlves believe the government will
show, indicates that the acreage will
be materially cut. This authority
states that it will require seasonable
weather throughout to produce the
estimated yield. The estimate also
stated that the use of fertilizer this
year has been cut 26 per cent.
The present agitation calls for an
acreage cut of 80 1-3 per cent, and
farmers in practically every county in
the belt have attached their signature
to iron-clad pledges that they will
cut the acreage that amount and use
less fertilizer. 1t is entirely too early
to arrive at any nearly definite esti-
mate as to the acreage cut. Little or
no planting has been done, and fur
thermore, very little ground has been
broken east of the Mississippi river
Even with the cut only 16 per cent, it
would be hard job for the South to
produce crop of more than II 100000
bales under present conditions-la
scarcity, high wages, weevil menace,
probable drouth, lack of potash, in
ferior fertilizer and other considera-
tons. The figures of this authority
are the smallest since 1905, when
100000 acres were cultivated, pro-
ducing crop of 11,06S,173 running
bales turned out A reduction of 33 1-3
per cent. would mean crop of in the
neighborhood of 100000 bales-under
favorable conditions.
AS the writer stated long ago, when
it becomes an established fact that
the acreage has been cut drastically,
every domestic spinner and specula-
tive short trader and foreigner is go
ing to clamor for both actual and flu
ture contracts, regardless of quota
tons. Of course the signing of the
peace treaty will find great expression
in the upward course of cotton, which
is inevitable This is one year the
South is going to receive decent, liv-
ing price for its hard labor and COM
modify, and the smaller the crop the
better the price. And it won't be at
tanned through trading upon the mis-
cry of the world" as Governor Allen,
of Kansas, accused the Southern plan

law of supply and demand, and moth

Judge Hats Case
to Demand Man be
Indicted for Bigamy

ATLANTA, March 31-Judge w. D.
Ellis, of the Fulton Superior court,
made it very plain Friday that as far
as he is concerned there shall be no
tampering with the marriage and di-
vorce laws of the state of Georgia
when he halted the proceedings of the
divorce court in mid-session to demand
that Lieutenant Paul helms Estes be
indicted for bigamy.
Estes second wife was on the stand
at the time asking for annulment of
her marriage on the ground that Estes
had married her while under the ban
of the court not to re-marry, his disa-
bilities not having been removed when
he was divorced by his first wife.
Judge Ellis halted proceedings, sent
for the solicitor and demanded an in
dictment against Estes for gibamy,
declaring:
so far as the power of this court
goes, / am going to break up this
reckless disregard of the marriage
laws"
On the same calendar as the case of
the second wife was scheduled hear
ing of Estes petition for the removal
of his disabilities. Estes is young
Atlanta man stationed at Camp Gordon
and both his brides were Atlanta girls

GIVING Il Up

Tho political savvy OF G, people OF
the United States tells them that the
prohibition amendment to the consti-
tuition Of the United states Is TO be
adopted by the necessary thirty
states. and that 1t will be written into
the organic law Of this nation.
1t Is common PERCEPTION that this Is
about to come to pass, and that the
United States is going dry by iron
bound covenant. The Illinois leSisla-
ture is concededly dry for this PROPOSE
ton. Illinois, containing Chicago. which
Is a wet city, Is fair criterion. Inc
savvy is sound. we have no doubt.
The nation is going on the water
wagon on a long journey. When
things are written in the constitution
and when the enforcement OF law lies
with federal authorities there is more
than a perfunctory observance Of the
law, and the law is long lived.
1t will not be found that the prohibit
ton amendment-when adopted-is
inutile. There are different elements
involved, and it would be our guess
that when this amendment Is adopted
1t will be enforced to the full extent
of federal authority. 1t will not be
abrogated by local community consent.
1t Is useless. probably. to argue the
matter now. 1t is virtually res ad-
judicata The thing Is done. 1t lacks
merely formal action. Such is the poll
teal PRESENCE of the country, and we
imagi 1t is accurate. Therefore the
following discussion is academic, but
in the face of a thing determined ana
- mi RI
our opinion that II Is a thing deter
mined and about to be done In the
wrong fashion. Sumptuary legislation
of this character is properly a matter
of statutory law. and not OF constitu-
tional law. 1t is properly matter left
to the discretion of communities, even
if the communities be so considerable
as states. 1t is improperly put. from
the largest considerations Of national
rule, in constitutional law.
Our impulses have no divine
sovereignty over the future. Statutory
law is fluid. 1t follows the ideas Of the
existing generation. Organic law Is
static. It domineers the succeeding
generations. 1t does assert sovereignty
and control. For this reason we believe
that the method by which prohibition
is being established in the United
States Is wrong.
