THE UNIT SYSTEM Bill is Proposed to Provide for a State Purchasing Agent. BUY ALL SUPPLIES Indiana Police Force Meets With Disapproval—The Contingent Fund. (United Press Service) Indianapolis, Feb. 19 —The unit buying system as employed by the allies during the war is as applicable to the state of Indiana as to the entente nations, according to advocated of the bill proposed today to provide for a purchasing agent for the state. Under the provisions of the bill the purchasing of supplies for the various state institutions would be done under the direction and supervision of a state purchasing agent. It is said that by thus pooling the general supplies needed at all Institutions the state would save probably several hundred thousand dollars, annually. Another bill provides for a similar system for the city of Indianapolis and would permit the hiring of an entire corps to conduct this work for the city.

Terre Haute, Feb. 19 —The annual convention of the Indiana Real Estate Association began its session of two days here today. More than three hundred members of the organization, representing prac tically every locality in the state are listed among the visitors and delegates to the meeting. The initial sesI sion was opened by J. W. Fieldhouse, I president of the association, followI ing which addresses of welcome were I delivered by various city officials of I Terre Haute. I ludianapolis, Feb. 19 — Protests I against the bill by Representative DeImaree, providing for the organization :| of an Indiana state police force, have I been received by many members of Ihe state legislature from Indiana I municipal authorities. It is pointed lout by the various city officials that I under the proposed law it would be ■ 1 possible for the state police to conptantly embarass the various municiII pal police forces and to create a genleral dissatisfaction among residents lof rural communities by arresting I numerous residents of the state on I petty charges which are frequently I unintentionally overlooked by local (officials, who claim they are kept busy preventing violations of the prohibiI tion law. Indianapolis, Feb. 19—An increased I contingent fund, to be used under the I direction and authorization of the leg- | islative visiting committee and the (governor, was favored today by se.v- --| oral members of the majority and miInority of both houses of the legislature. It was recommended by the legislative visiting committee that the contingent fund be increased to sl,900,000 as with a non-partisan board I controlling the fund it would be used only in cases of actual emergencies where actually needed.

DAILY HEALTH TALKS The Best Way to Treat Constipation BY S. C. BABCOCK, M. D. The medical books name many drugs that will move the bowels. The drug store shelves are loaded down with laxatives, purgatives and pills. The trouble with most of them is the after-effects. Constipated people know that pills work all right for a little wh'le, but they goon k>«e their effect, and a change has to be made to something else. The constant taking of pills results in a form of bowel inactivity I that is difficult to cure. The system becomes so accustomed to laxative drugs that the organs just won’t work without, I them, and ao the pill habit becomes as bad as constipation itself. Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., seems to me to have the right idea. He says the bowels should first be gently moved with Pierce’s Pleasant Pel- , lets, and in the meantime laxative foods ■ only should be eaten. Figs, prunes, olive oil, spinach, bran, vegetables and fruits are I ane for constipation. Chew every bite t thoroughly, eat little meat, and be as | active as Now, doesn’t that j seem sensible? Pleasant Pellets will start | the bowels working ri-ht: then it is up to j y° u t 0 ket P by right eating. ? fry Pleasant Pellets for sick headache coated tongue, biliousness, dizziness, torpi' liver or to break up a cold. They are just fine! J Dr. Pierce’s Anodyne Pile Ointment soothes, cools and heals piles in a most gratifying way. Perhaps there is no other remedy for this torturing trouble that relieves so surely and quickly. Dr. Pierce believes Anodyne Pile Ointment will overcome any case that can be overcome by medical treatment. Try it right now. Dr. Pierce's Anunc Tablets are intended | for people who suffer from kidney disorders —whose back? ache, and whose systems are overrun with uric acid. Nearly everybody has too much uric acid. Anuric Tablets dissolve uric acid qmcklv, las they are made double strength. v .
