The issue is nut! of vital importance. We all know that Senator Bryan is a good Demo - | crat and hag too much loyalty andj intelligence to go back on his party. et s | The State papers are talking about our coming county fair in Lakeland} and that premium list is attracting much attention. The Ocala Star| says: | “The Star has received the prem- fum list of the annual Polk County Fair, which will be held at Lake- land Feb. 22-27 inclusive. Judging by the catalogue, there will be a fine list of exhibits. Polk is a county of great resources, and it is reason . able to suppose her people will show them up properly.” P SR Speaking of the late W. N. Conol - el, secretary of the Jacksonville Board of Trade, the Floridian of that city says: ‘‘There was a sad. ness about this man’s life that al- ‘ways seemed pathetic. But he was every inch a fighter, and he was at all timeg fighting for the right."” It is well said. Pathos was in his life from boyhood and the gentle strain was not less marked than the fight- ing edge. He came naturally by his gameness, for bis father, old Judge Conoley, of Selma, Alabama, grim old soldier that he was, had enough backbone for several ordinary men and as colonel of an Alabama in- fantry regiment in the civil war, he was in his elem¢nt when the row was on. He was equally good at praying and fighting and as a Pres. byterian elder hg was as militant as when he was a Copfederate colonel. s TEACH THEM HOW TO EAT IT } e It Is unreasomable to suppose that any single interest or combina.| tion of interests {8 combining to run f down the grapefruit market, and the cause for the low price for the fruit must be sought elsewhere. The truth is that the demand for grapefruit among the people, the ultimate consumers, is weak, and it {8 weak because the fruit itself is practically unknown to the majority of the American people and its con- sumption is confined to less than five per cent of the whole body. This being true, obviously the remedy for the distressed state of the market is to go to work in e systematic way to familierize the masses of people all over the country with the merits of the fruit, show them how to eat| \recommended Doan's Kidney ; that Mrs. ;burn Co., the country the proper way to pre pare this delicacy. Some like to add sugar; I know I do. In adaition some use wines, others use straw. berries to add to the flavor. Either fare good. Some use honey instead of sugar.

Collier, 806 Orange St., Lhkeland, says: *“I had a dull pain in my back and had such bad dizzy spells I could rardly see my way about. My kidneys did not act right. I had been reading how good Doan’s Kidney Pills were for such troubles and I got a supply at Hen- ley & Henley's Drug Store. I began taking them and was helped. I kept right on with the remedy until I was cured. We have recommended Doan’s Kidney Pills to other kidney sufferers.’” Price 50c, at all dealers.
