III have just come here from Van
couver, BIC. , and have been taking
'Fruit-a-tives" for two years, and
have never found any medicine that
answered my requirements like yours.
Nine years ago, I was in an accident
and the lower portion of my bowels
are paralyzed; therefore, 1 need
medicine that does not lose its effect.
and have been absolutely satisfied
with 'Fruit-a-tives" since I began
taking them"
Mrs. c. G. REMINGTON.
Now, you might think that any
medicine which is strong enough to
move the bowels when they are para
lyzed, would be too powerful to be
used by a person suffering with
ordinary Constipation. Yet "Fruit-a-
tives' is regularly taken by children,
young boys and girls, men and women
OF all ages, without pain, gripping or
other ill-effects. Because "Fruit-a-
tives" is Il genuine fruit medicine,
that always corrects Constipation
and BiliousneSs gently, mildly and
effectively.

San Pedro, Cal, Nov. IL, 1921.
a little letter to let all all our friends
at home know how we made our trim
from Brookings to Los Angeles in nv
car. When speaking of I'VE" I mean
the whole party, Charles and Sam Nc
Clemans, Loyal Parks and myself.
Well, this is not telling you of our
trip, SO here it is:
Our first day out from Brookings
we had good roads, also the next two
days, which took us through Nebras
ka. Our first days drive out in Kan
sas was 10 bad, but from there on
the roads could not have been much
worse, save for about Is miles of
paving which we hit in Kansas.
Now l know how much the roads
of South Dakota are talked about, but
if the people Of South Dakota could
only have taken the road which we
did, which vas the Santa Fe trail, they
would soon find that South Dakota has
as good roads as any state which we
drove through, save Nebraska, as they
have good roads, but considering the
amount Of traffic there is on these
roads one would think they would
have them kept up better.
Now 1 shall go on with our trip or
you will all think | have s]idetracked
it. Well, after we got through Kan
sas We soon were headed for the noun
tains. Then we started going up all
the time until we were around 5000
or some odd feet above sea level; then
we dropped about 1000 feet within a
radius of six miles. This was just be-
fore we got into Ration, New Mexico.
We could e the city way down be-
low us, and it seemed as though we
would " get down there.
From Ration we went to Gallup.
Right here l want to tell you that when
they named that city Gallup they sure
ly made no mistake, for it was a gal
lop all the way; then we went to Santa
Fe where we stayed for the night. Be-
tween Gallup and Santa Fe we hit

sales of middlemen as well as mani
facturers, why not try the plan pro
posed by Senator SmoOt, to levy {
manufacturers and producers tax o.
three per cent on goods sold for con
sumption or use without further
process of manufacture?
Or. if not that plan, why not try
a modified general consumption OF
turnover" tax plan, leyying a half OF
one per cent, Or such rate as may be
estimated to produce the required
amount of revenue, not to be applica-
BILE to foodstuffs and products, but to
apply to expenditures.
The proof OF any tax plan is in the
working thereof-and in the working
only. Hence my belief in giving the
sales-tax theories a test.
Each stakeholder in our vast cor
poration knows that simplicity in man
aging our affairs, the elimination Of
red tape and Of complex regulations
that can be understood only by ex-
perts-and about which even experts
disagree, so that regulations have to
be further regulated - would mean
more success in our business: in other
words, more prosperity in way of "divi-
dends" for all.
SO it is UP to us to strive toward a
time when thrift and production may
every encouragement from our
board Of directors; when business ex-
travagance may be in the same degree
discouraged. II we work together con-
scientously toward that end, we shall
again see norma. times, reduc-
ton of prices, and the sort of pros
to which we are entitled.
We can be just as patriotic in peace
times as we were in war times. And

snow, rain, hail and everything. This
making the roads bad we could not
drive very fast, SO we drove in the
mountains after dark about three
hours, lot having the least idea what
the road was like ahead of us, but
made it safe and sound. When we
drove in the garage they asked us if
we had just come down the mountain
in the dark. We told them we had.
They said they could not hire anyone
in town to make that drive after dark,
that it was the most dangerous road
in the mountains on that trail.
Santa Fee is a Spanish town; only
saw two white men there.
We could always tell when we were
nearing a Spanish or Mexican town,
for there would always be signs on
the outskirts of the city, such as
Jesus Saves" ETC., so We always kept
on going until we got to the end of our
journey.
The weather here is fine, except in
the morning when it is damp and
foggy. There is one thing we have
failed to find, and that is good meals,
and VIZ have been to every place in
the city. We drove the 2,40O miles in
II days.
This closes my story and l hope
this letter finds all our dear friends
in good health.
Yours respectfully,

The Times appreciates the COM

on the editorial page of the Banner,
but would appreciate it the more if
credit had been given. Tampa Times.
The editor of the Banner was away
from his desk the most of last week
attending the reunion of the Confed-
crate Veterans at Lakeland so an arti-
Gle from the Times may have found
its way on the editorial page without
credit, but we are quite sure that the
omission was not intentional, yet those
in our Office feel perfectly safe in
printing any article from the Times
as they are always so forceful and
clear and along lines that it is a plea
sure to cleave to.
It would be well if the editorials of
the Times could be reproduced in all
of our newspapers with or without
credit as they would be most helpful

1922 is COMING

1t is time to prepare for 1922. Have
you selected good candidate for SEN
ator in your state and for congress-
man in your district? If not, it is
time to do so. He should spend the
winter in canvassing. Let him take
the Revenue bill and point out its
weak points. 1t was so bad that a Re.
publican congress struck out the re.
troactive clause. 1t was so bad that
the house machine would not allow
amendments to be offered.
It was so bad that the Progressive
Republicans in the Senate joined the
Democrats in changing some of the
worst provisions. If the Republican
leaders had been permitted to have
their way the bill would have been a
crime. 1t is likely to be the chief is
sue next year. The opposition of Pro-
pressive Republicans can be success
fully used against it in the agricul-
,tural sections. Pick out the candidates
and put them to work. No district is
hopeless next year.
