Weak, Thin, Nervous
People Should Take
Bitro-P Phosphate
what It Is And How II Increases Weight
Strength and Nerve-Force.

Judging from the countless preparations
and treatments which are continually being
advertised for the purpose Of making thin
people neshy, developing arms and neck,
and replacing ugly hollows and angles by
the soft curved lines of health and beauty.
there are evidently thousands Of men and
women who keenly feel their excessive
thinness.
Thinness and weakness are often due to
starved nerves. Our bodies need more
phosphate than is contained in modern
foods Physicians claim there Is nothing
that will supply this deficiency SO well as
the organic phosphate known among drug
gists as bitro- phosphate, which rs inexpen-
aive and is sold by Peoples Drug stores and
most all druggists under a guarantee OF
satisfaction or money back.
BY feeding the nerves directly and by
supplying the body cells with the necessary
rhosphoric food elements, bitro-phosphate
ahould soon produce a welcome transforma-
lion in the appearance; the increase In
weight frequently being astonishing.
Increase in weight also carries with IL a
general Improvement in the health. Nerv-
BUSINESS, sleeplessness and lack of energy,
which nearly always accompany excessive
thinness, should soon disappear, dun eyes
brighten and pale cheeks glow with the
bloom of perfect health.
CAUTION-While Bitro-Phosphate Is I'M
surpassed for the relief of nervousness,
general debility, etc, those taking 1t who
do not desire to put on flesh should use
extra care in avoiding fat-producing foods.

HIS SWEETHEART.
BY Frank L. Stanton.

Ny Sweetheart oon't forget me
Because I'm gettin' gray:
When she's with the daisies
A daisy comes my wayi
For then 1t is she's thinkin':
Sometimes his days are dim,
And a daisy from a meadow
Brings the sunshine back to him."
Ny Sweetheart don't forget me
When she's where the roses grow,
A sister OF sweet charity
She says. "A rose'll cheer him
On that lonesome way Of his
But there's not a rose, I'm thinking.
Sweet as my Sweetheart is.
MY Sweetheart still remembers
That for all the joyous years
The sweetest songs LIES singing
Sometimes are touched with tears:
That sorrow gives no warning
That the bloom must brave the
blight:
Blu. my Sweetheart is the Morning,
And the blessedness Of Light!

TRAVEL LIGHT.

Each daS the members of the Fourth
Estate are evidencing their interest in
the coming convention, and each mail
brings some word of interest or appre-
citation. A number of the press members
are asking about the carnival ball. Let
us say right now that this is not a
dress up" affair. With such a long
journey, 1t is too much to expect heavy
luggage. Rest secure in the assurance
that the ball will be none the more
delightful because dress suits and eve-
ming gowns are not insisted upon.
A carnival ball in the summer time,
even atop the San Carlos, with the
Gulf Breeze sweeping in, will not de-
mand the swell clothes that winter
frivolities always suggest. Business
suits will be the order of the evening.

It's resources are the richest and its
people produce more and earn more
than any other people.

FoR SECOND FERN.

As the primary draws near interest
in the Congressional campaign in
creases, and reports from all sections
of the district indicate that Congress
man Smithwick will not only be renom-
mated. but that he will receive an
overwhelming majority.
Congressman Smithwick has served
one year of his first term and he has
undoubtedly made one Of the best rec
ords ever made in the house by any
new congressman. He is placing his
campaign for second term squarely
on the record he has made, and the
faithful service rendered.
Congressman Smithwick has been
campaigning in this district for the
past three weeks. having made many
speeches. and has gathered to himself
many strong supporters. The opposi-
ton has been unable to cope with him
on the stump and all attacks on him
or his record have been made in his
absence.
The people of this district are ac-
Iquainted with the work of Congressman
Smithwick in Washington and the
faithful service rendered and unques-
tionably will renominate him June. s.
From every county in the district come
reports of his increasing popularity.
One of his opponents has never pub
lished a platform nor given a reason
for his election; the other has dealt
in a general way with public questions
and an attack on the laboring people,
without giving any remedy for the evils
of which he complains.
Congressman Smithwick in all his
voting and in his speeches has stood
for what he believes to be right. He
has shown by the independence of his
voting that he will vote special privi-
leges to none.
Voters in all avocations and walks of
Tfe are supporting Congressman Smith
wick because he has proven himself to
be thoroughly honest, safe and relia-
BILE and because they are convinced
that he will do his duty as he sees it.
They know that he has the interest Of
the whole people at heart and will serve
them with high purpose and ability.

VANCE WRITES FOR
JOURNAL READERS.
BY Or. James |. Vance.


It is a bad thing to put conscience
to sleep. 1t may not waken when
needed. and it Is likely to be needed
without announcement, and when it is
needed, it is badly needed
There are times when the moral
sense is about the only thing that
will save the day. There come social
upheavals when people will not listen
to reason. There may develop at any
time in our industrial conditions
which force is powerless to set right.
Woe to the people who have so drug
ged their normal sense that at such
crises 1t cannot get into action!
1t is not enough to know. Knowl-
edge must be guaranteed against mis-
use. In possession of a scoundrel.
knowledge is nenace. The only
thing that can insure the right use
OF knowledge is loyalty to an ethical
standard. It Is not enough to have your
wits sharpened. Thu will must also be
controlled, and the will can be con-
trolled only from within. Men must
not be able to think: they must be
able to think straight Hence it is
the experiment of fools to chloroform
the moral sense.
1t is bad for the individual; it is not
less bad for the nation. For there is
such thing as a national conscience.
1t speaks in our laws and courts. It
sleeps when good laws are not en-
forced. or vicious ones are enacted. It
is drugged when courts, instead Of
guaranteeing and safeguarding the
rights of the poor and the weak. pro-
tect and make insolent the aggressions
OF the rich and the powerful.
Trade is in a bad way when con-
science goes to sleep 1t is poor bus
mess to be unethical. Politics are IN
bad way when the main concern Is
not what is right, but what is expedi-
ent. Traders who are money-rubbers
on the graves where conscience is
buried. love money to well. and politi-
clans who make merry over a moral
issue cannot become statesmen even
after death.
1t is as perilous a thing to chloroform
conscience as it is to go to sleep with
the gas turned on. 1t is as great
an infamy to choke moral conviction
to death as it is to kill a man

IN SIMPLE JUSTICE.

There can be no question but that
the candidacy of Judge j. L. Billings
ley is rapidly gaining in popularity
throughout the state. On reason for
this is that Judge Billingsley repre-
sents something more than good legal
mind, experienced in the office to which
he aspires he is also an excellent
business man, and this, together with
his high position in the American Leg
ion, gives him growing popularity
ia this part of the state.
Judge Billingsley is indeed one OF
the people. He is self made and since
his earliest manhood has served his
state with distinction.
The Punta Gorda Herald is one of
the many South Florida newspapers
supporting Judge Billingsley, and in a
recent issue carried this strong en-
dorsement:
In simple justice to themselves,
we believe that it is the duty of
every voter of Punta Gorda and of
all South Florida to vote for J. L.
Billingsley, OF Miami. who is a
candidate for attorney general. The
attorney general. by virtue of his
office. is a member Of the drain
age board that conducts the drain
age projects Of South Florida. Four
out of five members of the present
drainage board live on a straight
line from Jacksonville to Pensa-
cola. and majority of them live
west of Tallahassee. AS the drain
age projects of South Florida are
purely local in nature and paid for
by taxes on South Florida property.
it seems important to us that at
least one member of the board that
handles this work should be
South Florida man. a man ac-
quainted with the conditions and
needs of this section-and j. L.
Billingsley is such man. He is
amply qualified by training and
native ability to make Florida an
attorney general as able as the
state ever had-fair and square and
deserving of the vote and conf
dence OF the pepole of his own sec
ton as well as every other section
OF the state.

$50 for 5 Months Old Pig.

Arie Thomas Of Madison county has
been in the pig club before and has
made such a success that she is go-
ing to try to raise a state champion.
In order to do this she knew that she
must have a real pig to begin with.
The county agent secured a five
months old Poland China boar for her
from the Herlong Farms. Micanopy, for
which he paid $3.50. This boar is a son
of Herlongs Big Model and promises
to be as valuable hog as his sire.
This pig will receive best OF atten-
ton and by the experience gained in
club work she hopes to exhibit the
grand champion at the state fair this
fall
The club boys and girls are learning
the value of good pigs to use in the
pig club and the example set by Arie
Thomas will be followed by many 9TH
ers with the result that the quality of
