DAILY HEALTH TALKS
What Doctor Pierce Has
Done For Humanity!
nv DOCTOR GRIPS

Ii has always seemed to me that
DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, should be
placed near the top when a list of
Americas great benefactors is written.
He studied and conquered human dis
eases to a degree that few realize.
Whenever he found a remedy that over
came disease, he at once announced it
In the newspapers and told where 1t
could be bought at a small price. He
did not follow the usual custom of
keeping the ingredients secret, so that
the rich only could afford to buy the
medicine, but openly printed the name
of each root and herb he used. And
30 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 most
successful remedies is known as Doctor
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.
Very often they make person who
takes them feel like a new man or
woman, for they cleanse the intestines
of hard, decayed and poisonous matter
that accumulates when one is costive.
If you are constipated, by all means
go to your druggist and get some of
DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They
may prove to be the very thing your
system requires to make you well and
happy.

EASTERN TIME IS ILLEGAL

To add to the inconvenience of
eastern time, which has been forced
on the people of this section without
consulting them by the Interstate
Commerce Commission, is the fact
that central standard time is estab-
lished by law as legal time for the
state of Florida.
The Stars attention was called to
this matter by an article in the Tam
pa Times, and on consulting a law
yer, who looked up the law, we found
the Times was correct. The law not
only says standard time, but central
standard time, according to the Goth
meridian, which bisects the United
States few miles west of Chicago
So our courts, officers of the law,
ETC., this side of Apalachicola must
continue to transact legal business
under one time, while the rest of the
county works under another.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion doesn't care any more about the
law than the state legislature about
the constitution of Florida.

NOT ENOUGH

The Star, and we suppose all other
papers IN the state, received the
other day, by mail, the following:
Washington, Dec. Ex-senator
Park Trammell today offered an
amendment to the revenue bill pro-
viding for one months additional pay
for all officers and enlisted men of the
army, navy and marine corps that
have been honorably discharged since
the signing of the armistice on Nov
18th, or that may hereafter be hon
orably discharged. The amendment
was adopted by the Senate"
We suppose, on receiving the same,
we were expected to take our type
writer in our hand and indite a ring
ing editorial praising Mr.. Trammell
for his devotion to the cause of the
soldiers and sailors.
We are not doing any such inditing.
On the contrary, we consider such
tidewad bill an insult to the soldiers
and sailors, and think the boys and
their relatives will be warranted in
voting against men that offer them
such a measly pittance when the
country is able and should be willing
to do more.
If Mr.. Trammell had introduced a
bill to give every officer a months
salary, and every enlisted man and
non-com an even hundred dollars, we
would have praised him for his sense
of justice toward the defenders of the
country.
The vast majority of our land and
sea forces are private soldiers, COM
! mon seamen, nOn-coms and petty of
ficers, receiving not more than forty,
most of them thirty, dollars month.
A months pay to nine-tenths of them
would just about buy a suit of civilian
clothes to replace their uniforms.
Perhaps a months salary would be
enough for the last bunch of men who
went to the training camps, and were
or will be sent back home in a few
weeks. But the soldiers and sailors
who have been overseas should have
not less than 500 apiece Any less
is pitiful pittance.
It's very true that 800 or more
apiece for 100000 men is an i'm
mense amount But the country can
" give II W It's uS1cIluSIS. 1HSy
have saved it that amount a hundred
times over, by their heroism, which
not only won the war, but brought it
to an end months before the most
sanguine expected.
Withdraw your picayunish bill. Mr..
Trammell, and put in one to fit man
sized country, if you expect the Star
to brag on you.

The letter from Taxpayer" in yes
terday's Star voices some of the dis
content that is felt with the way our
city affairs are being carried on.
There is reason in most of his kicks.
The Star, however, does not agree
with his desertion of municipal own
ership. There is mighty good reason
to believe that much of the trouble
we are suffering from has been DELHI
erately forced on the town in order to
discredit municipal ownership, and in.
stead of abandoning the principle, the
people had better put its enemies out
or office and keep them out. 'Tax-
payer" is also mistaken about the
matter of city manager. The city
manager plan has not had fair trial.
The city has had no manager since
Mr.. johnson resigned. The superin-
tendent of the city plant, who has
enough and more of his own work to
do, fills the Office as a formality. He
signs the pay rolls. but he has moth
ing to do with the other departments.
Most Of the evils that Taxpayer"
complains of are due to the fact that
the city has no manager and no man
agement-the different departments

work without cooperation, the alder
men are too busy with their own af-
fairs to properly attend to the affairs
of the city, they have blocked the
mayors plans for systematic city
government and they have no plans
of their own-the town is deteriorat-
ing from a pleasant and pretty little
city into a dirty. shabby and uncom-
Portable village; and it will continue
On its downward course unless the
people get together and do some
thing.
