The Charm of Good Health Has
Its Source In Rich Red Blood.
Nothing On Earth So Neces-

Restores The Quality OF Your
Blood, Brings Back Your
Color and Renews Vitality

Personal charm is like a light. 1t
sheds its rays everywhere. Is the
light of your personal charm hidden
under the bushel of bad blood? In
stead of habitual smiles do you wear
a tired look-almost scowl? Do
you tire easily? Are you pale and
lacking in vital energy and ambi-
ton?
You are not really ill., Your blood
has become weak and sluggish. 1t is
half starved What you need is the
blood-making qualities of that SPLEEN
did tonic. Pepto- Mangan After you
have taken Pepto-Mangan a little
while you will feel a big improve
ment. The smiles will come back.
People will see a difference in you.
You will make friends again. You
will have plenty of rich, red blood
and feel stronger.
Pepto-Mangan has been building
red blood for wears. Physicians pre-
scribe it right along. 1t has just the
ingredients that starved blood needs.
Sold in liquid and tablet form. Both
have the same effect. But be sure
you get the genuine Pepto- Mangan.
Ask for "Gude's" and be sure that

The Star greatly regrets to hear of
the death of Mrs. R. E.. Smedley,
which took place at her home near
Santos Saturday night.
Mr.. and Mrs. Smedley and their
children came here from Sumter coun-

children entered our high school, but
the oldest boy, Frank. volunteered, and
went with Company A to Camp
Wheeler, where he became one of the
victims of the pneumonia epidemic.
The daughter, Miss Mamie, was one
of last springs graduates of our
school. Mrs. Smedley was only forty
six years old, and her death has rob-
bed her loved ones of many years of
affection and usefulness.
Her remains were taken today to
the former home of the family at
Coleman and laid to rest by the body
of her soldier son. McIver & MacKay
had charge of the arrangements.
Her husband and surviving chill
dren, Joe and Miss Mamie, all well
known to our people, have the sin
cere sympathy of all their friends in
the loss of the central jewel of their

FLYING STUNTS AT
SOUTH FLORIDA FAIR

Tampa, Feb. 2-The most spectac-
ular airplane flying yet seen in the
South. This is the promise of the
directors of the South Florida Fair, to
be held in Tampa from Feb. 16 to q,
inclusive, wit hlow rOund-trip passen-
ger rates applying from all points in
Florida east of the Chattahoochee
river. To the flying stunts will be
added automobile races by profession
ais, eight spectacular free acts and
thirty or more shows, which will be
furnished by the Johnny Jones ex-
position, the largest aggregation Of
the kind now on the road.
Desiring to present nothing but
that which is novel and thrilling, the
fair directors have contracted for
daily appearances of three of the
worlds greatest fyers-Roger Will
Jams, formerly with the Canadian fly
ing corps. who leads the world in
making changes from one plane to
another while going at a speed of 20
miles an hour; Ralph Johnson, who
holds the worlds record for looping
the-loop, and Lieut.. George Haldeman,
a star performer of the American av-
iation section at Carlstrom field. Ar
cadia. This daring trio will rise from
the fair grounds each afternoon at 5
o'clock and entertain the crowds with
wing walking, parachute dropping and
acrobatic stunts, with the change
from plane to plane executed by Viii
liams on one or more days. In short,
Floridians who think they know
something about aviation are going to
be presented with spine-tickling
thrills that will last for some time.
Also those who wish to indulge in air
plane flights can do so at any hour Of
the day from the fair grounds, those
skilled aviators being prepared to
keep three passenger plans busy.
The fair, in every department, is
now ready for presentation; in fact,

inr those newly built, was practically
exhausted a month before the open
ing date. Similar progress has been
made in preparing for the revived

WILL TOUCH
FLORIDA LIGHTLY

Jacksonville, Feb. DIR. Ralph N
Greene, state health officer, announces
1857 cases of influenza and los cases
ending January 81. The death toll
from influenza was only 13 and los
from penumonia, this rate in compari-
son to the number of cases indicating
the light character of the influenza
that is now attacking the state.
The figures are compiled from the
daily reports received by the State
Board of Health from the city health
authorities and the 1862 cases of the
two diseases are scattered through 80
different cities in the state.
DR.. Greene sent instructions to the
municipal health authorities the mid
die of the week to send sputum speci-
mems of all cases of pneumonia in
their territories to the State Board of
Health laboratory. These specimens
will be obtained from the physician in
charge of the case and will enable the
State Board of Health to type all
eases of pneumonia and so determine
the prevalence of the particular type
that is peculiar to influenza.
The situation so far is decidedly
optimistic, DR.. Greene states in an
ncuncing figures for the week, and
believes that Florida will escape an
epidemic of serious proportions. How
ere, the State Board of Health autho-
rites will continue to watch the sit
uation closely and be prepared to
send the fighting machinery organized
in case Of an influenza epidemic into
the field on twenty-four hours notice
So far no community has appealed to
the State Board of Health for the aid

DR.. Greene reiterates his warning
to the citizenship of Florida to take
every precaution against influenza
and to follow exactly the instructions

that the navy was still unprepared,

The assistant secretary said that
before the war "he was opposed by

want to commit any overt act of war
but who added that he was following
a definite course in an effort to avert
a war"
In March, 1917, Mr.. Roosevelt said

MANY ADVANTAGES
OFFERED BY THE ARMY
TO YOUNG MEN

There are only three national insti-
tutions in America-the president, the
supreme court, and the army (includ-
ing the navy), hence the army feels
that it has the right to go to the peo-
pie and ask their support in order
that it may be maintained with its
efficiency unimpaired.
This is the basis on which the Unit
ed States army is launching recruit
ing drive of a scope larger than any
thing undertaken since the selective
draft law went into effect. Special
arrangements have been made for a
local drive. with special open air
meetings on two nights in the court
house from Feb. 9th to the 7th, both
days inclusive. and four minute
speakers in the theater.
Special emphasis will be laid on two
points-the chance of an alien to be-
come a citizen in record time, and the
opportunity for all lines of education
and training offered all recruits. By
raising pay in the various branches
of service, the government has
brought the army to a point where il
can compete with civilian commerce
in it's bid for men. By providing 9
comprehensive educational system
the army has been equipped to attract
the youth who appreciates ideal com.
binations of theoretical and practical
In several branches there are oppor.
tunities for travel which will appea
to those who want to see the world.
Through the medium of the Ameri
can army an immigrant may become
a full-fledged citizen within three
years instead of the five now neces
sary in the regular channels. Train
ing in English is one of the first be
efits accruing to the alien recruit.
Asia, China, Siberia, Alaska ant
the Philippines are open to the young
Americans who desire to see tn,
world while working for Uncle Sam
Elaborate trade schools have beer
established at all large posts and th'
general educational scheme as de
veloped in the army will mean the ex
penditure of several millions of dol
lars to make the service fit soldier
for their duties as we'll as for thei
future when they return to civil life.
