How to Treat
A Torpid Liver
The liver is the largest and most
Important organ in the body, and
when the liver refuses to act, it
causes constipation, biliousness,
headaches, indigestion, gas, sour
stomach, bad breath, dysentery,
diarrhoea, pains in back and under
shoulder blades and under ribs on
right side. These symptoms lead to
colds, influenza or other serious
troubles unless corrected immediate
ly.
An inactive liver places an extra
burden on the kidneys, which over
taxes them and causes the blood to
absorb and carry into the system the
impurities that the liver and kidneys
have failed to eliminate.
When you treat the liver alone,
you treat only a third of your
trouble, and that is why you have to
take purgatives every few nights.
Calomel or other ordinary laxatives
do not go far enough. If you would
treat your kidneys and blood while
treating the liver you would put
your entire system in order and fre
quent purgatives would then be un
necessary.
Dr. W. L. Hitchcock many years
ago recognized these important
facts, and after much study and
research, compounded what is now
known as Dr. Hitchcock’s Liver,
( Kidney and Blood Powders, three
medicines combined in one. This
was the Doctor’s favorite prescrip
tion for many years, being used by
his patients with marked success.
It is a harmless vegetable remedy
that will not make you sick, and
you may eat anything you like
while taking it.
Get a large tin box from your
druggist or dealer for 25c, under his
personal guarantee that it will give
relief, tone up the liver, stimulate
the kidneys to healthy action and
thereby purify the blood. Keep it in
the home for ready use whenever
any member of the family begins
to feel “out of sorts.” It will prove
a household friend and valuable
remedy.—(Advt J

FUND IN HONOR OF
CAPTAIN BROWN
GIVEN UNIVERSITY
ATHENS, Ga.. June 15.—A schol
arship fund In honor of the late Cap
tain Henry Warren Brown, the son
of Colonel and Mrs. Edward T.
Brown, on Monday afternoon was
formally tendered to the trustees of
the University of Georgia at their
annual meeting and was accepted by
them.
The tender was made by a com
mittee composed of Clark Howell,
Jr., Prof. W. H. Bacock, Dr. H. C.
Wite and Prof. W. D. Hooper, acting
in behalf of the family of Captain
Brown. The trustees accepted the
fund with expressions of the high
est commendation for the spirit and
purpose which it represents.
Captain Brown was born In Athens
in 1895. when his parents lived here.
He spent several years of his child
hood here and was buried here in
Oconee cemetery. He graduated
from the University of Georgia in
the class of 1916. Entering the First
officers’ training camp at Fort Mc-
Pherson, he won a commission as
captain, was assigned to duty with
the Three Hundred and Twenty-sixth
infantry at Camp Gordon, trained
there during the winter of 1917-18,
and went to France in April, 1918,
with the Eighty-second division. Fol
lowing the armistice he returned to
America in January, 1919, received
his honorable discharge as a captain,
and died on February 19, 1919, at
the age of twenty-four years.
Captain Brown’s father and mother
and his brother and sister, Edward
Mitchell Brown and Marjorie Brown,
wished as a tribute to his memory
to establish a scholarship fund at
the university where he was educated
and in the city where he was born
and buried. They submitted their
plan to Clark Howell, Sr., a trustee
of the university, who assured them
that the trustees would accept it
most cordially and gratefully. Their
check for S6OO as the first annual
installment of the fund was accord
ingly placed in his hands for trans
mittal to the board at its annual
meeting. Being obliged to leave for
San Francisco last Sunday, he dele
gated his son. Major Clark Howell,
Jr., a college and clubmate and com
rade-in-arms of Captain Brown, to
represent him in the formal tender
of the scholarship.
The fund will be administered in
the same manner as the Charles Mc-
Donald Brown scholarship establish
ed by the late Governor Joseph E.
Brown, With the one exception that
the donors suggest S3OO as the maxi
mum loan to a student instead of
the S2OO maximum fixed in the
Charles McDonald Brown scholar
ship. >
An annual installment of S6OO will
be paid for thirty years by the fam
ily of Captain Brown, making a total
of SIB,OOO. Each year’s installment
will be loaned to two deserving stu
dents to be repaid by them with
interest, and each re-payment with
its interest will be re-loaned, so that
the fund will constantly grow while
it is being used, and will not cease
or expire at the end of the thirty in
stallments, but will have become a
greater fund at that time than it
was in the beginning, and will thus
go on as a permanent and perpetual
benefaction for the aid of deserving
young men ambitious to secure an
education.

Eight-Year Old Prodigy
Who Beat Twenty Chess
Masters at Same Time
■ Idßr ■ o
SAMUEI, RZESCHEWSKI
Twenty of the best chess players
chosen by the Palais Royal society
were beaten recently in Paris by
eight-year-old Samilel Rzeschewski,
who moved quietly from table to ta
ble carrying on the whole twenty
games at the same time. The boy, a
frail child with a thoughtful face
and a well formed head, not abnor
mal in size, was born near Lodz, Po
land. His father himself is a good
chess player and when Samuel was
five years old he taught him the
movies. Within a fortnight the boy
was beating his father badly; the
parent had to take a rook and an
other piece to stand any chance at
all. From Paris Samuel is going to
London to meet the gray-bearded
chess masters there. Then he must
go to school because his father says
his education Was neglected during
the war.
BUTLER CHARGES
ATTEMPT TO BUY
WOOD VICTORY
NEW YORK, June 15.—Charges
that “a rtfotley group of stock gam
blers, oil and mining promoters, mu
nition makers and other like persons
seized upon so good a man as Gen
eral Wood and with reckless au
dacity started out to buy for'him
the presidential nomination,” were
made in a statement given out here
last night by Nicholas Murray But
ler, an unsuccessful candidate for
the Republican nomination.
“It was cause of genuine sor
row to me as to many others of Gen
eral Wood’s personal friends," he
said, “to see him put in this unhappy
position. There was nothing to do
in order to save the Republican party
but to defeat the band of men that
were behind him with their bank
accounts and their great financial in
fluence. This meant that we had to
defeat General Wood himself.”
"The forces that were defeated in
their insolent attempt to buy the
nomination,” he added; “rapresent all
that is worse In American business
and American political life. It is
really too bad that they hit upon
General Wood as their choice. They
should have found some one to sup
port for whom the country has less
respect and less regard.”
“The chief task of the convention,”
the statement said, was to prevent
the sale of presidential norriiriatiOns
at auction to the highest bidder. Had
this not been done, the party faced
not only certain defeat but crushing
dishonor. The sixty-eight New York
delegates who voted for me on the
first ballot were the chief factor in
stopping the Hindenburg drive to
overwhelm the convention by the
power of unlimited money and by
strong arm methods in preferential
primaries.”
The story of New York’s sixty
eight votes for Butler shows, the
statement said, how General Wood
was defeated. It points out that the
first ballot gave General Wood a sub
stantial lead and that “the first task,
therefore, was to bring the vote of
his nearest rival, Governor Lowden,
at least up to Kood’s vote.”
"It was this New York vote for
Lowden taken from the sixty-eight
votes that had been cast for me that
gave Lowden his lead on the fifth
ballot and that enabled him substan
tially to equal the Wood vote on the
ballot Immediately following. When
after the seventh ballot it was clear
that Lowden could not be nominated,
we helped the drift toward Harding
and on the ninth ballot became the
decisive psychological factor by giv
ing Harding sixty-six votes.”
Old Guard Nursed
Harding Boom at
1916 Convention
While David Lawrence and other
leading political writers are telling
their readers all about Senator War
ren G. Harding as the picked candi
date of the Old Guard in the late Re
publican convention —picked from
the start, in the event of a dead
lock, or possibly to defeat Wood and
Johnson—it is recalled that just four
years ago, before the preceding Re
publican convention Ralph Smith,
special staff writer of The Journal
and then its Washington correspond
ent, stated positively in three news
dispatches to The Journal, that Sen
ator Harding then was the favorite
of the Old Guard; and that only a
nomination on or before the third
ballot would prevent him from being
put forward.
As it chanced, Frank Hitchcock,
manager for Charles EVans Hughes,
had too firm, a grasp on the situa
tion; and Mr. Hughes was nominated
on the third ballot.
Senator Harding went unmention
ed in the field of candidates, which
included Theodore Roosevelt, Mr.
Hughes, John W. Weeks, of Massa
chusetts; Charles W. Fairbanks, of
Indiana, and Theodore Burton, of
Ohio.
The Burton boom subsided sudden
ly, due to his unhappy position on
; tfte rivers and harbors bill; and Mr.
Smith writing two days before the
convention opened, predicted that
it now was Harding the Old Guard
was holding up its sleeve; and that
if there was no nomination by the
third ballot, Mr. Harding would be
dusted off and trotted out as the dark
horse, probably destined to win the
nomination.
Senator Harding, as Mr. Smith
showed, was kept carefully in the
background In spite of being selected
as temporary chairman and key
noter. But Mr. Smith was certain at
the time, and told The Journal’s
readers at the time, that he was the
favorite of the Old Guard, which was
eager to keep Roosevelt out of it,
and really stood for Hughes only on
that basis. Had it not been Hughes,
and Hughes on the third ballot, the
1916 nomination might well have
gone to the man named in 1920.

LONDON PAPERS
SEE GOOD CHANCE
FOR DEMOCRATS
LONDON, June 15.—The London
evening paper editorials on the Re
publican nomination are devoted
largely to speculation on Senator
Harding’s chances of election and
what effect that would have on
American foreign policy. Both the
Globe and Westminster Gazette are
of the opinion that Senator Harding’s
election is by no means assured if
the Democrats are able to find a
strong candidate.
The Globe thinks a Republican de
feat is not impossible if such a man
as William G. McAdoo or John W.
Davis were nominated.
The Westminster Gazette declares
that Great Britain must preserve
neutrality in a political confict, but
cannot disguise its interest. It is
doubtful, in the opinion of the Ga
zette, if the November election can
settle the question whether the
United States will pursue a purely
American policy or take a hand in
international politics.
“Had President Wilson been avail
able,” says the paper, "he might
have boldly carried his banner into
the fight and rallied the majority
to him by the lofty appeals he
knows so well how to make. But
in his default it is unlikely that any
Democratic nominee will do this or
get the sanction of the Democratic
party for a pure League of Nations
doctrine.
"On the other hand the Republican
party does not entirely close the door
on American participation is world
politics and even seems to favor
some sort of extension of arbitral
methods in world affairs. The choice
of a safe man, in all events, saves
us from active pursuit of an anti-
European policy by that party on its
nominee, and to that extent there is
a point gained.”
The Globe says, “Senator Harding
is credited with favoring reversion
to that aloofness front world politics
which characterized America in the
days before. It is a perfectly intel
ligible point of view, but we venture
to think that Senator Harding, if
elected, will' be compelled by force
of circumstances to soften something
of its old rigidity.”
The Star in an editorial says:
"Senator Harding will represent In
the United States very much what the
coalition Liberals represent in this
country.. He is the instrument, we
might almost say the tool, of the
cleverest group of men in American
public life, the Republican senators.
The senate is doomed by the trusts.
"Senator* Harding is a middle-of
the-road Republican, and the social
reforms, which are as urgent in the
United States as they are here, will
receive from him, we fear, neither
sympathy nor solution.”
The Morning Yorkshire Post be
lieves that “there is a better prospect
of helpful European policy than we
could have looked for had the choice
of the delegates at Chicago fallen
on a politician holding the opinions
on the subject with which Hiram
Johnson is credited.”
CANADIAN EDITORS SAY
HARDING IS REACTIONARY
MONTREAL, June 15.—Canadian
papers today devoted considerable
space to comment on the nomination
of Senator Harding for president of
the United States, and in general
this comment favored his candidacy.
"Mr. Harding has a good reputa
tion, Is not an extremist, has shown
business enterprise and is thought
to have qualities that will commend
him to the voters,” said the Mon
treal Gazette.
The Toronto Mail and Empire (con
servative) said:
"Senator Harding has been chosen
for no other reason than that those
responsible for his choice believe he
will win, because the party will unite
behind him. Under Harding, the peo
ple of the United States may expect
the sort of government they re
ceived under McKinley, and. which
they have not received since.”
The Toronto Globe (Liberal) rec
ognized as a "second
choice,” and says:
"Public sentiment echoed in the
chorus for Hoover from the gallery,
but the ’oj.d guard’ is always proof
ftgaHiifit- ii&piilar impulses. Hoover is
not of the professional type of poli
tician/ and the ‘old guard’ prefer a
man who is ‘safe’ from its own point
of view. Harding has no black marks
op his public record and he illus
trates in his own career as a self
made man,the qualities which appeal
to the bulk of his countrymen.”
The Toi-pnto Star comments on the
large sums of money spent on be
half of men defeated, and says “yet
Harding is, perhaps, as sound a can
didate as could have been chosen.”
The Manitoba Free Press says:
“Senator Harding’s candidacy Is
not likely to make much appeal to
the restless and unattached voters
in the United States; and the Demo
crats, who have the tactical advan
tage of the last word in making
platforms and picking a candidate,
may find in McAdoo, or another, a
candidate that may appeal to these
elements.”
The Montreal Star, however, says:
"The Harding nomination should
put new enthusiasm into the Demo
cratic ranks. The Republican nomi
nee is not a national figure. He
stands for the very things which or
ganized democracy has always most
strongly opposed. He is a represen
tative of McKinley Republicanism, a
thing which the Democrats have al
ways branded as arrant reaction. No
doubt the forthcoming convention at
San Francisco will make the most of
the progressive ferment within the
ranks of the party and throughout
the country to identify Harding with
Wall street ‘bossism’ and the ‘big
interests.’ ”
The Vancouver Province says in
part:
"Notwithstanding the fact that Mr.
Harding has been chosen because a
majority could not agree on one of
their favorites, he may prove to be
as good a candidate as one of the
leaders. He is as likely to be a
capable and worthy president. Most
certainly he will be a safer candidate
and a safer president, if he gets that
far, than Senator Johnson would be.”

Davidson was released following his
arrest under bond of $3,500. The rate
of speed at which Davidson is alleged
to have attempted to take a forty

estimated at from fifty to seventy
miles which resulted in' the machine
turning turtle and rolling over
three times into a creek just beyond
the sharp curve.

FARMERS OF 8188
PLAN FOR DRIVE
ON BOLL WEEVIL
MACON, Ga., June 15.—Rewards
for the capture dead or alive of
boll weevil will be offered by the
farmers of Bibb county. They will
accept the advice given them Satur
day by J. G. Oliver, assistant agri
cultural agent in Georgia, who asked
that a price be placed on the heads
of the millions of insects that are
destroying millions of dollars worth
of cotton in Georgia.
Mr. Oliver told them the best way
to combat the invaders was to pick
them and to destroy them and the
squares before the births o 2 millions
of others that will soon occur if not
prevented. He declared that two
boll weevil will produce from
twelve to fifteen others.
It is expected a day will be set
aside for the weevil hunt and that
thousands of school children will
take part.
The strike of clerks Os the Cen
tral of Georgia railway here has
practically ended, railway officials
say. They declared that a large num
ber of the strikers have applied for
their positions back. It is under
stood they will be given preference,
but that they will be employed only
when there are vacancies and that
none of the men who took their
places will be discharged to make
places for them.
Hottest Place in U. S.
Macon is in the grasp of an in
tense heat wave with the mercury
flirting- around 98 degrees. For two
days in succession it was the
hottest place in the United States,
according to reports received at the
weather bureau here. Today’s fore
casts holds out no hope of a ma
terial change in the temperature. So
far, there has been no unusual suf
fering here as the torrid rays of the
sun are combated in by welcomed
breezes, and early in the mornings
the weather is delightfully cool.
The bill to be presented at the
coming session of the legislature by
a committee appointed by the state
T. P. A. has been practically com
pleted. Among other things, it pro
vides for the appointment of a su
pervisor of hotpls whose duty will
be to inspect every hotel in the state
at least twice a year. It also re
quires hostelries to have printed in
large type and displayed in the lob
bies and rooms its rates and the num
ber of rooms available. The bill also
prohibits employment of persons suf
fering from contagious or infectious
diseases.
The peach season in this region is
almost at its height. Reports re
ceived by the Macon bureau of the
Georgia Fruit Exchange show that
100 cars are being shipped a day.
Most of those moving now are Red
Birds, Early Rose, Carmens and
Arps. The Georgia Belle and Elber
tas will come later.
Satisfactory prices are being re
ceived, officials of the exchange say.
So far the average has been above
$4 a crate.
Infant Death Rate
For 1919 Decreases
In Many Large Cities
WASHINGTON, June 15.—Infant
mortality rates for 1919 decreased
materially as compared with the
four previous years, according to sta
tistics compiled by the census bu
reau and made public today. Os the
twelve largest cities in the birth
registration area, seven showed de
creases of from 8.5 to 23.4 per cent,
while the highest increase was 51
per cent.
In New York City the death rate
of infants under one year of age

SEEKING CLUE TO
ELWELL MYSTERY
IN OTHER CITIES
NEW YORK, June 15. —Investiga-
tion in New York City having failed
to reveal a definite clue to the person
who shot and killed Joseph B. Elwell
Friday, police today turned their
probe to five other cities through
out the country in which Elwell
spent brief periods during the past
half year.
The cities are Palm Beach, Fla.,
Louisville, Ky„ Lexington and La
tonia, Ky„ and Long Beach, N. Y.
The police believed they would be
able to obtain evidence in those
cities which would aid in solving the
mystery which has surrounded the
death of the whist authoriaty. El
well went to Palm Beach for the win
ter. He was a well known figure in
Kentucky racing circles and also in
society at Long Beach and other
towns in Long Island.
9662,000 is Found
More than $62,000 in unlisted se
curities belonging to . Elwell were
found today. Police said this further
strengthened their belief that the
man did not kill himself because of
financial difficulties. Three more
pieces of women’s lingerie were
found also in the living room of El
well’s heme. •
That Elwell used his ability as a
card player to further his acquain
tance with big men in Wall street
was brought forth today in examina
tion of persons who knew him well
by Assistant District Attorney
Joyce. Elwell received valuable
market “tips” from wel known finan
ciers, it was said. The dead man's
will was to be probated today. His
entire estate of $300,000 was left to
his aged parents.
Von Schlegel Examined
Voctor von Schlegel, divorced hus
band of Viola Krause, who was one
of the women in a dinner party at
tended by Joseph B. Elwell, sports
man and bridge whist expert, the
night before he was found slain in
his home, was added today to the
long list of persons the police have
questioned in an effort to gain some
clue to Elwell’s assailant.
Mr. von Schlegel, who had been out
of the city since last Friday—the day
Elwell was found dying with a bullet
wound in his head—returned late
last night and telephoned to detec
tives volunteering to be interviewed.
“Everyone questioned thus far has
been eliminated,” Mr. Joyce said, aft
er concluding his interview with Voi
Schlegel. “All our clues so far hav<
led only up blind alleys and we ap
pear no nearer solution of the mys
tery than on the day of the murder.”
Mr. Joyce said Von Schlegel was
surprised to learn that the party on
the eve of Elwell’s death was to
celebrate the granting of Mrs. von
Schlegel’s final divorce decree. He
attended the party, he said, with an
other woman.
Left for Atlantic City
Early Friday morning, Von Schle
gel said. Tie left for Atlantic City on
business, and while there he learned
of the tragedy through the newspa
pers. He was immediately sent for
and conducted to the Elwell home,
where he was questioned until early
today. Detectives would not dis
close the nature of the interview.
Just before Mr. von Schlegel went
to the Elwell home, Deputy District
Attorney Joyce, who is conducting
the investigation, had again question
ed Mr. and Mrs. Walter Lewisohn
and Miss Krause, sister of Mrs. Lew
isohn, also in the Elwell home. With
thejm was a Mr. Berg, a millionaire
friend of Mr. Elwell, who is reported
to have said he was willing to spend
a fortune to bring about the arrest
of the dead man’s slayer.
During the questioning of the Lew
isohns, it was said, the fact was
brought .put that their dinner party
Thursday n:ght in company with Mr.
Elwell was in celebration of Miss
Krause's final decree of divorce from
Von Schlegel. It was not said where
the divorce was granted or upon what
grounds.
Tennessee Farmer f
Shot From Ambush
NASHVILLE, Tenn., June 15.—Mr.
G. W. “Pete” Brewer, a farmer liv
ing eight miles from Waynesboro,
Tenn., was shot from ambush near
his home Monday afternoon and
killed, while returning from Waynes
boro. Mr. Brewer was alone when
shot, and the body was discovered
thirty minutes afterwards by a young
woman passing on the road. Blood
hounds from Nashville reached the

CHRONIC DISEASES
ME OFTEN CAUSED
BY IRON-POOR BLOOD
Indigestion, Rheumatism, Sleeplessness, Nervousness,
and Similar Troubles Have Been Found to
• Be Due in Many Cases to Lack
of Iron in the Blood.
THE OBVIOUS REMEDY IS ZIRON
When doctors all agree on a certain treatment, you may be sure that
a positive, scientific fact has been settled.
There is no disagreement among medical authorities as to the medic
inal value of Iron, in certain forms of disease, caused by a lack of Iron in
the blood.
Among these diseases are anaemia (shown by a pale, relaxed condi
tion of the skin), general debility, weakness, nervousness, lack of appe
tite, certain skin troubles, like eczema, scrofula, etc.
But more particularly may be mentioned the chronic troubles, for
which no active cause can be discovered, such as chronic dispepsia, or in
digestion after eating, rheumatic pains in the muscles and joints, inability
to sleep, etc.
These troubles are often due simply to a lack of sufficient iron in
the system, and the best way of treating them is to furnish the blood
with the iron it needs, by taking Ziron Iron Tonic.
Ziron is not a s*~ret or patent remedy. The ingredients are printed
on the label. You know what you are taking, and your doctor will advise
you as to the medicinal value of its ingredients for your particular case.
In any event, should you wish to try Efron, you may do so without
expense, if it turns out not to suit your case, which you cannot do with
other medicines, or even with a prescription, for your druggist will gladly
sell you a bottle, on the guarantee that the first bottle will bnefit, or
money back.
Ziron is a mild chalybeate (iron) tonic, containing, with other in
gredients, the hypophosphites of lime and soda, and is recommended for
growing children, as well as adults, who need the strength that iron, com
bined with the hypophosphites, will give.—(Advt.) (Z 8)
