Health Advice Conducted Under Direc- ton of the U $. Public
 Health Service
CONSTIPATION.

The cause of constipation in the absence of organic disease is due chiefly to the loss of tone and activ- ity of the muscular coat of the in testine, the function of which is to keep the intestines active during, the digestion of food and to remove from the body waste matter resulting largely from digestion.
 Constipation is usually, the result of sedentary habits, improper food and intemperance in eating and drinking. Unless this subject is giv- en proper consideration in early life, chronic constipation, which is ex- ceedingly difficult to overcome, ire quently follows.
 In general the preventive meas ures relate to the proper care of the body, or personal hygiene, es- pecially the use of suitable and simple food, sufficient water and most important of all, plenty of reg ular exercise in the open air, prefer ably walking Whole grain food which stimulates the intestinal tract and plenty of vegetables and fruit aid in preventing constipation. Oat- meal is very valuable in this way.
 If constipation persists there is some reason for it, and physi- elan should be consulted. If the services of physician are not avail. able, some harmless agent may be employed for temporary purposes Probably the best of these is castor oil; licorice powder or one of tht saline laxatives may also be used.
 On the other hand, nothing is more pernicious than the continued use of cathartics, and the temptation 1T this direction is very great, for they are advertised everywhere. These drugs not only do not relieve tht constipation, but as rule aggravate it.

GIVE THE UTILITIES A "sQUARE
 DEAL"

The United States Court for the western district of Tennessee has in structed the receivers of the Mem phis street railway to collect seven cent fare, as granted by the public utilities commission of Tennessee in March. The court had ordered sus- pension of the seyen-cent fare in de- ference to the public of Memphis, { whose representatives-th city Commissioners and the newspapers asked . three months test of the six-ccnt fare. This has been found insufficient, and the seven-cent fare ordered. N
 This and other instances where courts and commissions, after the hearing both sides and considering the cases on their merits, have found that rates of public utilities were too low, and have authorized increases, canses wondcrment how those com panies have not received increases passat tcy thereincrease in costs have maintained service.
 The people are prone te take too much for garanted. They accept the service of the public utility as a matter of course. Tho they know that labor, fuel and materials have increased, receiving more expensive, or if they do not realize the fact, they proudly conclude the public util- 5 ity has some sort of an Aladdin's lamp by which they have all their needs supplied.
 As matter of fact, the public or portion of it, at least t-is dis. posed to impose on the public util- ity for no more reason than it is corporation. This disposition is shown in political campaigns, in damage suits, in rate controversies. This is bad for the state, bad for the community, bad for the individual. The public utility's interests and those of the public are interwoven The railroad telephone, telegraph electric light, water, street car serv- ices are big assets to the state, the community and the individual. How many want to live where these did not operate?
 The public utility should not be permitted to impose on the public but neither should it be imposed up on. The corporation is entitled to . asquare deal' in everything and certainly should receive living rate for the service supplied.

sALLEE FOR COUNTY CLERK,

Should the county Democratic con vention, which assemblies tomorrow, dominate Littleton Sallee for coun- ty and probate clerk of Jefferson, the action will be applauded by the bik majority of Democrats of the county.
 Young Sallee is now serving the unexpired term of his late father, who died at Redfield just after com p1eting an address in which he ex- pressed gratitude to the people for tho confidence they had displayed in him. He would have received the nomination without opposition.
 The people desired that L. T. Sal lee be the county clerk for another term. With the death of the father, the son assumes the responsibilities carried by his lamented sire.
 Littleton Saliee is a young man who has sought to make the most cf his opportunities. He has studied hard at public school and at college; he has shown ambition, energy and psfseversnee qualities not abound 3 ing in many young men of today. Ever since he was old enough to xezk he has sought job as soon Fl vacation days came. 1.-The could
