FIFTEEN YEARS
OF BLACK-DRAUGHT
Black-Draught Highly Rec
ommended by Illinois Man
for Liver and Stomach
Disorders —Used It for
Fifteen Years
N
Singerton. Ill.—'’For fifteen years
we have used Thedford’s Black-
Draught, and have not as yet found
anything that could take Its place,”
writes Mr. W. F. Bister, of this town.
“I have used ft for indigestion a
number of times, and it gives relief,”
continues’ Mr. Bister.
“For sour stomach, a heavy, bloat
ed feeling, it is splendid. And when
the liver gets torpid, so that when
you stoop and raise up suddenly you
feel dizzy, a few doses will set you
straight.
“We keep it and use for consti
pation and the above troubles, and
find it most satisfactory. I can
recommend it to others and gladly do
so. For the number of years I have
used Black-Draught now, I ought to
know.”
In its 70 years of usefulness, Thed
ford's Black-Draught has relieved
thousands and thousands of persons
suffering from the results of a dis
ordered liver. And,'like Mr. Tester,
many people feel that, after using
Black-Draught nothing can take' its
place.

If You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best
Have you ever stopped to reason
why it is that so many products that
are extensively advertised, all at
once drop out of sight and.are soon
forgotten? The reason is plain—the
article did not fulfil the promises of
the manufacturer. This applies more
particularly to a medicine. A medic
inal preparation that has real cura
tive value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy
is recommended by those who have
been benefited, to those who are in
need of it.
A prominent druggist says “Take
for example Dr. Kilmer’s -Swamp-
Boot, a preparation I have sold for
many years and never hesitate to
recommend, for in almost every case
it shows excellent results, as many
of my customers testify. No other
kidney remedy has so large a sale.”
According to sworn statements
and verified testimony of thousands
who have used the preparation, the
success of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Boot
is due to the fact, so many people
claim, that it fulfils almost every
wish in overcoming kidney, liver and
bladder ailments, corrects urinary
troubles and neutralizes the uric acid
which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle
of Swamp-Boot by Parcels Post. Ad
dress Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bingham
ton, N. Y., and inclose ten cents;
also mention the Atlanta Tri-Weekly
Journal. Large and medium size
bottles for sale at all drug stores.

PE«CE IS CHEAP AT
COST OF LEAGUE.
MCE B
BY DAVID LAWRENCE
(Copyright, 1920, for The Atlanta Journal.)
WASHINGTON, May 8. The
League of Nations has been in exis
tence for four months. What has it
to show in the way of positive results
thus far? The facts as obtained from
official information here discloses
that mucn of the work of organiza
tion is yet to be done but that plans
for every branch of the leagues ac
tivities are fully under/way.
Elihu Boot, former secretary ol
state, will sail soon for London to act
in an advisory capacity when the
construction of a permanent court of
I international justice is drawn up
for submission to the assembly of the
league at a later meeting this year.
Senator Knox in his recent speech ad
vocated such a court and so have oth
er leading republicans. It was pro
vided for in the covenant of the
league and now is to be established
by conference of the most eminent
jurists of all countries on June 1 at
London.
The international court will handle
all juridical questions, all disputes
between nations which are matters of
law as a part from political questions.
But even political controversies be
tween nations often involve a ques
tion of law or facts and it will be
possible for the council and the as
sembly of the League of Nations
where political problems will be con
sidered always to refer a question of
law or facts to the international court
for a judgment or opinion.
Three Conferences Called.
Besides the meeting at London to
create an international court of jus
tice, three other international con
ferences are to be held under the aus
pices of the League of Nations. The
financial conference at Brussels on
May 25 already has attracted the at
tention of the economic world, and
on June 15 there will be a semen’s
labor conference affecting shipping.
But the most important meeting in
the immediate future is the session
of the council of to be held
at Rome on May 14.
Plans will be approved at that
meeting for the admission of new
states, for the convening of the as
sembly, for the constitution of a per
manent armaments commission, and
the registration of all new treaties
between members of the league.
Other questions will be taken up
such as central European relief and
the budget of the league, but it is
significant that all member nations
will be required to register at this
meeting any treaties or agreements
they may have made with aach other.
28 Nations Members
This is the first step in the era of
publicity or open diplomacy on the
matter of treaties. Indeed, the pro
visions of the league already apply
to the twenty-eight nations which are
members. These include Japan,
Great Britain, France, Italy, Belgium,
Bolivia, Brazil, Czecho-Slovakia, Po
land, Peru, Panama, Siam, Urguguay,
Liberia, and Guatemala —all of whom
were in the war or signed the treaty
of Versailles —and the states which
were neutral but have joined the
league such as Argentine, Chile, Col
umbia, Denmark, Netherlands, Nor
way, Venezuela, Paraguay, Persia,
Salvador, Spain, Sweden and Switzer
land.
The meeting of the foregoing mem
bership list can best be understood
when it is considered that every one
of those twenty-eight nations, in
cluding for instance Japan, is abso
lutely pledged not to make war with
out first allowing nine months for
investigation or arbitration or the
consideration of their disputes by the
council or assembly of the League ol
Nations. None of these nations can
now go to war with each other or
with other powers on the spur of the
moment without invoking the possi
ble ill-will or even military force or
all the other powers. The making of
war is not prohibited after the nine
months period has elapsed nor woula
military intervention be considered
during that period if both parties
agreed to submit their case to in
quiry or arbitration. But for all prac
tical purposes the hands of twenty
eight nations have been tied for a
nine month cooling off period.
Eleven Yet to Batify
Only eleven states have signed the
treaty of Versailles, but have not
ratified it and so are not members of
the league. These include the Unit
ed States, Cuba, Ecuador, Greece,
Haiti, Honduras, Nicaragua, Porta
gal, Rumania, Hedjaz, and the new
Jugo-Slav states. China
from signing the treaty of Versailles
but will-join the league by ratifying
the Austrian treaty which contains
the covenant of the league. Fqur
other states—San Marino, Luxem
bourg Georgia and Iceland, were not
mentioned in the t
but have asked to be admitted to tne
never has been asked to
join. Concretely, the different mee
ings of the council have accomplished
th jlnu£ry g ls— Organized the council
and appointed the Saar basin fron-
Switzer
land adopted rules of procedure for
the council, appointed the Saar basin
governing commission, accepted the
obligation offered in the Polish treaty
for the protection of minorities, ap
proved plans for the organization of
the permanent court of international
justice, for the freedom of COJ P’
munication and transit and for the
international health office and sum
marized the international financial
conference. _ _ .
To Apportion Budget
March 13 —Approved plans for
sending a league commission of in
quiry to Russia and took first steps
for the prevention of typhus in Po
-13 April 9—Answered request of su
preme council that the league take
a mandate in Armenia with the state
ment that it would assume general
oversight for the time being.
The next meeting at Rome will
follow the program already set forth
in the beginning of this dispatch.
The budget will be apportioned
among the twenty-eight members.
The total cost of the league thus far
is about $600,000, and the sum of
$2,500,000 is required for the next
fiscal year. When divided by twenty
eight, this is an insignificant sum as
government expenses go, and a rela
tively small sum in an effort to keep
the world at peace.

ALEXANDER WILL
MAKE RACE FOR
SEAT IN CONGRESS
United States District Attorney
Hooper Alexander, one of Georgia’s
foremost lawyers and distinguished
citizens, will be a candidate for con
gress from the Fifth district at the
September primary in opposition to
the incumbent, William D. Upshaw,
it was learned Saturday.
Friends who had written him urg
ing that he make the race were defi
nitely advised by Mr. Alexander last
week that his formal announcement
for the office would be issued in due
course.
News of the district attorney’s can
didacy will doubtless occasion wide
spread interest, not only in this dis
trict, but throughout the state, as
lew public officers here have come
in closer contact or become better
known to the people of Georgia.
Mr. Alexander has served as United
States attorney for the northern dis
trict of Georgia for nearly seven
years, assuming the office on October
2, 1913, by appointment of President
Wilson. Prior to this he represented
DeKalb county in the lower house
of the state assembly for four suc
cessive terms, dating from 1904 to
1912.
Both as the executive head of the
prosecution branch of the federal
government and as a representative
in the state legislature, Mr. Alexan
der’s record has been marked by a
notable degree of ability, efficiency
and accomplishment.
As yet, no other candidates have
been announced in connection with
the congressional race in this dis
trict. Congressman William D. Up
shaw is now serving his first term,
following his election in 1918 to fill
the vacancy occasioned by the resig
nation of William Schley Howard.

Statistics Concerning
Nitrate Consumption
Are Made Public
VALPARAISO. May B.—The Asso
ciation of Producers of Nitrate have
made public certain statistics con
erning the consumption of this prod
uct, which is the principal article of
exportation of Chile.
In the month of February there
was on hand in Europe a stock of ni
trate of 150,000 tons, and during this
same month there was imported into
Europe 237,000 tons. Os this total
of 387,000 tons there was delivered
to the consumer during February a
total of 155,000 tons, which left on
hand for the month of March a total
of 232,000 tons.
The visible supply of nitrate
reaches 2,102.000 tons, composed as
follows: 1,252,000 from Chile, 492,-
000 in Europe, 277,000 in the United
States and 81,000 in Japan apd other
countries.
To the 237,000 tons imported by
foreign markets during February
there should be added 12,500 tons
transshipped in the United King
dom. This gives a total for im
ports in February of 249,000 tons.
The distribution of these imports
was as follows: United Kingdom,
11,000; France, 90,00; Belgium, 21,-
500; Holland, 22,000; Spain and Por
tugal. 18,000; Italy, 39,000; Scandi
navia, 31,000 Egypt, 7,500 Germany
and Baltic ports. 9,000.
Self-Styled “Poor
Millionaire” Jailed
“The Poor Little Millionaire,” as
Harold E. Vanßuren styles himself,
saying- he is worth $28,000,000, but
adding that he cannot touch it be
cause of a wager that he could earn
his own living for six months, ar
rived in Louisville, Ky., recently. A
few minutes later he was arrested
charged with disorderly conduct and
vagrancy.
Vanßuren, declaring he is a direct
descendant of President Vanßuren,
told police he made a bet of SIO,OOO
in Los Angeles in January that he
could earn his own living for six
months and not hold one place
longer than ten days. He travels
from city to city seeking menial em
ployment, he said.
“Judge Purvegin will give It to
him in the morning,” interrupted
Night Chief of Police Laird.
Newspaper clippings from papers
throughout the United States, telling
of his various feats, were taken from
the prisoner along with checks, bond
certificates and a note amounting to
about $160,000.
Police shivered when Vanßuren
said, “If I get punished here I’ll
come back after my bet is won and
spend my money to break you all.”
Louisville, he said, was his “Wa
terloo,” adding that he had been ar
rested as many as twenty times In
a single day, but never looked from
behind bars.
It’s part of the bet to keep his real
name a secret, he. said. Hartford,
Conn., he says is his home.
Burglar Spares Lawyer
Pleading for Life
PHILADELPHIA. May 8. —William
G. Thompson, lawyer and wealthy
club man, attacked in his apartment
in the St. James hotel by a burglar
early today, made so strong an ap
peal for his life that the desperado
spared him. Mr. Thomson had been
surprised and black-jacked into un
consciousness. When he regained his
senses his assailant was covering
him with a revolver.
“I knew my life was at stake, so I
summoned all my faculties and had
a five-minute talk with the mar.,”
said Mr. Thomson. “He said he was
determined to kill me because he
knew I would call for help as soon
as he left. I gave him my word I
would not give the alarm for ten
minutes. He evidently believed :r.e.
as he ripped off the telephone re
ceiver. locked me in the room and
disappeared.”
Later there was a call to the hotel
office from the fourth floor, evidentl*’
from the intruder. A voice said:
“Man on the twelfth floor needs
attention.”
Employee found Thomson covered
with blood from a wound on nts
head. He soon received medical at
tention and will recover.
NEW BONUS BILL TO
BE BROUGHT UP IN
HOUSE THIS WEEK
WASHINGTON, May 8.-—Soldier
bonus legislation is not dead for this
•ession of congress, despite many ob
jections raised against it during the
last week, Chairman Fordney, of the
house ways and means committee,
declared today on his return from
Michigan.
An emended bill to meet many of
he objections will be reported out
next week, with probability of action
in the house the following week, he
said It is virtually certain that
the total benefits of the measure
will be reduced to about $1,000,-
900,000, so that the tax on retail
1 sales can be eliminated.
Chairman Fordney characterized
the report that the pending soldier
. relief legislation had been practical
-1 ly killed as “wholly unauthorized”
i and declared Republican members of
I the committee had no intention of
slackening efforts to prepare a bill
next week that would be acceptable
to the house.
Mr. Fordney’s optimism over the
bonus situation, however, is not
shared by all members of the com
mittee. Some-of the strongest bonus
advocates have received word that
no bill can be reported from the
committee now; that the commit
tee is 13 to 12 against it. The claim
that the majority of the Democrats
on a “show ' down” would vote
against the bill, as would a few of
these Republicans who do not think
that increased taxes should be im
posed at this time.
As a result a move is on foot to
force action on the floor of the
house next week by a demand that
the till be taken up without waiting
for a report from the committee.
Representative Johnson, South. Da
kota, himself a former service man,
declared that such action will be
taken if any group tries to block the
legislation in the committee. This
would require a two-thirds vote, and
there is some doubt as to whether
such a majority can be obtained.
New York stock exchange operat
ors probably will come before the
committee next week to protest
against the proposed levy on ’their
transactions. ,
Meanwhile, spurred on by Frank
lin D’Olier, national commander of
the American legion, many appeals
are being received from local posts
urging that the present deadlock be
broken immediately.
NO RESISTANCE
TO POLISH ARMY
ENTERING KIEV
WARSAW, May 8. —(By the Asso
ciated Press.) —Hills north and south
of the city of Kiev, from which the
Bolshevik army was expected to de
fend the city, were occupied by the
Poles late this afternoon. Artillery
has been placed in positions com
manding Kiev.
Reinforcements have reached the
advanced forces of the Polish army,
which is prepared to hold the ground
should a counter attack begin after
the Bolshevikl gather their forces in
the hills across the Dnieper river to
the east of Kiev.
During the last five years Kieve
has changed hands time and again
and has been the scene of much
fighting. Although the city itself is
not fortified, the surrounding hills
are rugged with entrenchments.
Some of these were dug by the Rus
sians in 1914, some by the Germans
during their occupation, and still
other entrenchments at various
points were made by the forces of
General Denikine.
The Bolsheviki did their latest en
trenchment work during the present
occupation arid it was from these
they fought in the last few days
while the remnants of the Twelfth
. Bolsheviki army were withdrawing
across the Dnieper. As the battle of
Kiev continued the Roles brought up
1 additional forces to strengthen the
cavalry and infantry which were
■ wearied from their 200 kilometers
dash across Ukraine.
Polish army headquarters re
-1 ceived word today that Polish
1 cavalry reached Kiev this morn
! ing. The infantry then was less
than six miles from Kiev, with the
advance continuing virtually without
resistance by the Bolsheviki.

The meeting was called at the re

were unable to realize a fair profit
on sugar sales with the margin now
allowed.
Wholesalers under the present rul

sugar selling at above 20 cents, it
was stated, a large amount of money
was involved in comparatively small

STATE HIGHWAY '
BOARD MAY OPEN
A CEMENT MINE
The state highway board of Geor
gia is considering the question of
opening a cement mine to relieve the
shortage in the cement market, which
is holding back the construction not
only of state highways, but county
projects all over the state.
Recently at a conference of state
highway officials of the southeast
ern district, held at Montgomery,
the shortage of road building ma
terial was made the subject of a res
olution requesting state highway de
partments to hold down their pro
jects as much as possible.
In northwest Georgia and other
sections of the state are practically
unlimited quantities of lime rock
from which cement is made. It
woud be a comparatively simple
matter for the state highway de
partment to buy and operate a mine
of its own to supply cement tor
building the projected state high
way system. It has been suggested
to members of the highway' board
that the surplus could be apportion
ed among the counties to relieve
their shortage, selling them cement
from the state’s own mine at actual
cost of production plus freight.
Dr. Charles N. Strahan, chairman
of the board, stated Saturday that
the cement manufacturers will hard
ly make contracts at any price.
"They tell us,” said he, “that or
ders flor cement to be used in build
ing construction will absorb their
entire output foil several years
ahead.”
If that is the case, it would ap
pear that Georgia can meet the sit
uation by producing her own cement
from her own mines, since she is
fortunately possessed of unlimited
quantities of limestone. Citizens who
have discussed the subject with
members of the highway board can

PEPTO-MANGAN BUILDS
RED BLOOD
The Happy Family Is the One
Where Everybody Has
Red-Blooded Health
Children should not be pale apd
wan. Women should not be tired,
weak and blue. Young girls should
not be sallow, listless andl anemic.
Men should not feel run-down and
poorly.
Poor health and lack of vitality are
often merely the result of impov
erished blood.
Gude’s Pepto-Mangan is for people
whose bodies suffer from lack of
proper blood nourishment. Pepto-
Mangan enriches the blood and in
creases the number of healthy ixid
blood cells, which are so necessary
to carry the ' proper nourishment,
vigorousness, and strength to every
part of the body.
It contains the very properties that
are so sorely needed to build up thin,
watery blood. Physicians call it the
Red Blood Builder.
For your convenience Pepto-Man
gan is prepared in two forms, liquid
and tablet. Both contain exactly the
same medicinal value.
Insist on the genuine Pepto-Man
gan. To be sure you are buying the
genuine Pepto-Mangan, ask your
druggist for "Gude’s”. And be sure
the name "Gude’s” is on the pack
age.—(Advt.)
