After The Flu
What is Next?
You have often heard It aald that
a person feels worse after getting up
from the Flu than they did while in
bed. What can a person do to hasten
return to normal condition, to
lieve that tired worn-out feeling that
so depressing.
The real dangerous period ol
Flu is during convalescence, when the
body is full of impurities, and in
weakened run-down condition. Unless
utmost care is taken a relapse may
E. N. Swanson, a well known cltl-
in of Balnbridge, Ga., tells of his
experience with the Flu and how he
returned to health and good spirits.
Read what he says. It Is In the form
letter to a well known Atlanta
concern:
Southern Laboratories, Inc.,
Atlanta, Ga.
Gentlemen: —
rant to write and tell you of my
return to good health and bow It was
My condition had really been
getting serious and I had about given
up hope of getting absolutely well
igain. I was waak and listless. So
tired at all times that I could hardly
go. Food of most every kind I tried
with the same effect I had practical
ly no appetite—could eat nothing and
enjoy It.
But one day while I was feeling
very blue and downcast I happened to
meet up with an old friend of mine—
a traveling salesman, whom I had
known for years.
He recommended Bulac, the new
tonic, as the very thing I needed. Well
I had tried many kinds of tonics and
was disgusted with tonics in general
and told him so. However, he made
me promise that if he brought me
some I would give it a fair trial.
In a few daya my friend sent me
three bottles and I kept my promise.
Today I am very happy to »ay that It
did what other tonics had failed to do.
It brought back my health and
strength. I now weigh 180 pounds
and feel good all the time—thanks to
Sulac. I want to say right here and
now that everybody who feels that
they are going downhill, feel that
their system Is run down, their
nerves In bad shape, should try Su
lac. Give It a fair trial like I did.
This Is my honest and sincere advice.
Yours truly,
E. N. SWANSON.

DR. M’KOIN FAILS TO
GAIN HIS LIBERTY
Baltimore, Md., Dec. 29.—Attor
ney Robert R. Carman, counsel for
Dr. B. M. McKoin, former mayor of
Mer Rouge, La., dsclared yesterday
he would appeal to the federal circuit
court of appeals for a writ of habeas
corpus, should Gov. Ritchie grant the
request of Gov. Parker of Louisiana
for the return to that state of Dr.
McKoin.
Dr. McKoin, who is being held here
for the murder of Watt Daniels and
Thomas Richards, following the
Morehouse Parish kidnapings last
August, was denied immediate re
lease yesterday on a similar writ, ob
tained in city court Wednesday
Three judges heard arguments on the
writ, it being the first time in local
court history that three judges ever
aat in such proceedings.
A warrant charging Dr. McKoin
with the murder of the two men was
issued late Wednesday on an affidavit
of the sheriff of Morehouse Parish.

Robert P. Leach, state attorney here
and Attorney General Coco of Louis!-

Assistant State’s Attorney 1
Clark read a telegram in court from
Gov. Parker to Gov. Ritchie asking
the latter to delay the hearing, pend

Chief Justice James P. Gorter, in i

“We find that the charge is of such
serious character that we believe the
traverser should be held until the au
thorities of Louisiana have an op

Dr. Hugh H. Young, with whom
Dr. McKoin has been associated at
the Brady Institute of the Johns
Hopkins Medical School since his
arrival here last October, yesterday
telegraphed Governor Parker and At

a case, however, merely saying:

FRENCH PLAN TO SEIZE
GERMAN FORESTS WITH
OR WITHOUT APPROVAL
Paris, Dec. 29.—The French govern
ment has practically completed its
plans for the seizure of certain Ger
man state forests as a result of formal
action of the reparations commission
last Tuesday in declaring Germany in
voluntary default for her failure to
deliver the specified amount of tim
ber during the present year.
Some of the government-owned for
ests are in occupied territory of Ger
many. and othera in Baravia.
It was authoritatively stated last
night that, apart from any general set
tlement that may be reached at next
week’s conference here of the allied
premiers, M. Poincare has made up
hia mind to take these forests in eco
nomic reprissl for Germany's “willful
defanlt’’ even though the other allies
refuse to participate in the operation.
The French premier will insist that
his plan of leisure be the first Item
the agenda for the premiere’ meet
ing. He will ask the approval of the
allied powers, but If this is not forth
coming he Is prepared to act alone.
Many political observers expressed
the belief that M. Poincare will use
this decision- as the main support for
his contention that no relief must be
granted Germany without taking over
economic guarantees.
The French government Is convinced
it has a right to act under the terms of
the treaty of Versailles governed by
the reparations commission. The Brit
ish contest this right, and unofficial
Information reached France yesterday
that Andrew Bonar Law, the British
prime minister, will come to Paris op
posed to any discussion of seizures or
of economic guarantees until every
possible avenue of settlement has been
explored. This and other indications
leave the distinct Impression in the
minds of some of the observers that
to agree.
The reparations commission prob
ably will be aaked to settle the dif
ference of opinion between the French
and the British which haa arisen
■the meaning of paragraph* 17 and 18
of annex 11 of the treaty of Versailles.
The French argue that paragraph 18
opens the door to Independent action'
a majority of the members of the
commission support this view, which
will probably again leave Great Brit
ain In an isolated position when such
interpretation is made.
The dispute centers ground the
words “respective government" used
in paragraph 18, which, after stating
that in case of voluntary defanlt the
allies have a right to take economic
and financial reprisals, goes on to say
“and In general such other meaaurea
as the respective governments may de
termine to be necessary in the circum
stances”. On the word “respective,”
1 much depends and the suggestion has
been made that Germany should ap
peal to the League of Nationa to settle
the point, which it Is considered might
have the effect of disturbing the peace
of Europe.
The French, it is said, deeply resent
the vote of Sir Thomas Bradbury, the
British member of the commlaslon,
against Tuesday’s decision declaring
Germany Id valuntary default It
explained yesterday that evidence of
Germany’s willful default waa beyond
question and that the French demand
for a formal declaration of such de
fanlt should not. In good faith, have
been opposed by Great Britain. It
was also asserted that this rofnsal
likely would place next Tuesday's
meeting of the premiers under a cer
tain handicap because of French re
sentment.
Members of the reparations commis
sion are declared to hold the opinion
that only some unforeseen develop
ment such as last minute Intervention
by the United States, now can prevent
France from seising certain economic
HULA A LIBEL ON
HAWAIIAN CUSTOMS
Honolulu, T. H. Oct. 14.—(By
Mail)—-Two anciert and forgotten
laws on t he statute books of Hawaii
which still are effective could be in
voked to suppress the hula-hula dance
of Hawaii, which is usually perform
ed by a grass-skirted woman, accord
ing to an announcement by territorial
Attorney-General John A. Mathew-
man, in connection with recent efforts
to abolish the hula exhibitions, now
given mainly for the entertainment
of tourists .
The announcement followed the
adoption of a resolution by the
Hawaiian Civic club, composed of
leading Hawaiian!, denouncing, the
Hula, as a “libel upon the Hawaiian
race and its customs.”
Judge Mathewman said that the
two laws which might be enforced
against exhibitions had been on the
statutes of the territory for many
years one since 1860 and the
second since 1896, this having been
adopted when Hawaii was a republic.
In connection with the campaign
against the hula, Vaughan Mae-
Caughoy, territorial superintendent
of schools, while addressing the
Honolulu Ad club, declared that the
'so-called high society dancing which
is seen at leading social events is
immoral than the hnla.”

these will take the form of a collection

ported from the Ruhr region and the
strict collection of a 26 per cent, ad
valorem tax on all general exports
from the Rhineland. Figures are be

ing the chief British objection. On the
other hand the thought ia held that it
may be necessary to carry out the
plans, with military support, at least
in the beginning.
