TECH PROFESSOR
WINS ACQUITTAL
AND LIQUOR, TOOO
PROFESSOR J. 8. COON HAD KEPT
QUART UNTOUCHED FOR
| 12 YEARS.
Atlanta, Feb. 12,.—It’g all according
to the viewpoint as to how the partic
ular quality of Professor Coon’s luck
is viewed, but it must be admitted that
he was fortunate, more fortunate than
most, .
It was this way: John S. Coon, a
professor at the Georgia School of
Technology, for many years, who lives
at 26 East Kimball street, was given
at Christmag time in 1908, a quart of
rich an'd rare—cven then—whiskey by
a good friend. Professor Coon, being
a prohibitionist of the first water, had
kept the whisky all this time, forget
ting it practically—a great deal more
rractieally than most folks would have
forgotten it.
Thursday night police officers went
to the negro houses in the rear of Prof
essor Coon’s house to investigate a
disturbance. Finding no one in the
negro house, they investigated the cel
lar of the professor’s home.
There they found the ‘quart, and be
ing law-enforcing officers, they con
fiscated it and served Dr. Coon with
a notice which asked him #p appear at
police station Friday afternoon on an
swer charges of vielating the prohi
bition law. He answered the charges,
all right.
Black-Draught, Long in Successful
Use, Praised by an Arkansas
Mother, “‘Soon Does
Its Work.”
Marmaduke, Ark.—Speaking of
Thedford’s Black-Draught, which from
iong use in her household has become
regarded as “the family medicine,”
Mrs. Mary E. Hill, of Route 1, this
place, says:
“When the children get bilious, I
glive them & couple of good doses, and
when we have sour stomach, headache,
or any liver or stomach trouble, we
use Black-Draught. It is an easy laxa
tive, and soon does the work. I cer
tainly think it is one of the best rem
edies made.”
Black-Draught acts on the jaded
liver, gently, but positively, and Relps
it in its important function of throw
ing out waste materials and poisons
from the system. i
In thousands 6f- households Black:
Draught is kept handy for immediate
use in time of need. Prompt treatment
often is half the battle, and will often
prevent slight ills from developing in
to serious troubles.
Its well-established merit, during
more than 70 years of successful use,
should convince you of the helpful
effects obtainable by taking Black-
Draught for liver and stomach dis
orders. » Get a package today, and
keep it in your house. See that
the package bears the ¢ words,
“Thedford’s Black-Draught.” ~ NC-141

BRYAN BEING BOOMED
AS HEAD RUM HUNTER
ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE WANTS
HIM TO GET CRAMER'S PLACE
ok
Washington, Feb, 12—~The Anti-Sa
loon League is about to find a job for
William Jennings Bryan, and a job the
possession of which would be caleulat
ed to lift the heart of the Nebraskan
from the grave into which, with studl
ol solemuity, it deseended when he
failed to sceure the nomination at San
! I"rancisco.
i The league ‘would requive President
clect Harding to appoint My, Bryan
iln'nhihitiun enforcement ofticer, vice-
ICommissioner Kramer, whom the league
does not love. For Kramer has not
prevented the notoriously open con
sumption of liquor in practically every
spot in the United States.
Senator Sheppard of Texas, whose
every appearance causes the throbbing
of the prohibition tom-tom, declares
that he would go to the limit to sceure’
the place for Bryan. Republican Sen
ators, sounded on the proposition, de
clared that they would not oppose the
colevation” of the Nebraskan were
Haovding to name him,
Yor sake of the ‘‘eause’? it is be
lioved in Washington that should
Harding be beguiled by the song of
the Anti-Saloon League, Bryan would
readily be accepted. It is contended
hy some that the league would mnot
he in operation respecting this matter
had not Bryan given it the original
impetus. }
