Speaking of the woman suffrage movement, a lady asks the question, “When we get the suffrage can we vote?” Respectfully referred to sgome sweet suffragette for answer. —0 “We sleep away the best part of| our days,” declares the Bartow Rec-| ord. When we noted in the Orlando Boosters’ report that “Bartow was asleep,” we were inclined to doubt the correctness of the statement, but the corroborative confession of the Record seems convincing. Wake,! up,.brother! UL QR Another “martyr to the cause,” a nale idiot waving a suffragette flag, flung himself in front of August Belmont’s horse during the race for, the Ascot gold cup. He was trampled to death. It is a queer conception of heroism that prorapts people to such foolish and useless deeds. Certainiy such action does not advance the cause of woman suffrage. _— The order doing away with the; back-stamping of mail will have the, effect of decreasing the efficiency ot postoffice service. With this check removed postoffice employes wrill feel! that they can take their own good time in delivering a letter, and the patron be none the wiser. A bimllm order was issued by the departmeut Bome years ago, but so many protests were entered against it that it was rescinded. Business men and all peo-' ple interested in the prompt delivery;; ¢f their mail should make a similar protest against the present order. o The Plant City Courier nominates C.

This does not mean that there will not be a State census in 1915, but mere- ly that this Legislature was a lit- tle previous in making the 'ID[H'()- priation therefor, when it is thc duty of the next Lezislature which meets prior to the time fixed by lnw! for taking the census.

The stateent is no assurance that the contevts of the peckaze are pure, but simply meana that the manufactu.er may be pros- ccuted if his foods are found to be fmpure. Of cowrse, the general ef- fect of the law is to lessen the pro- portion of adulteration in food pro- duets, but we are still far knowing the exact nature of the al- lezed food we store away in our midst.
