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. D. 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.)

THE ATLANTA TRI-WEEKLY JOURNAL.
U. S. TO OFFER
2,000.000 FEET OF
. LUMBER AT SALE
■
More than 2,000,000 feet of lum
ber, enough, it is said, to build ap
proximately 200 four-room, frame
houses, will be sold by the United
States government at public auction
at an early date.
The sales will Include officers’
quarters, barracks, mess halls, etc.,
at both the German war prison camp,
near Fort McPherson and the of
ficers’ training camp, at Camp Gor
don.
Announcement that this lumber
soon will be available to those who
wish to build was made simultaneous
ly Thursday by Captain G. H. Steel
and Captain A. J. Brandon, utilities
officers at Fort McPherson and at
Camp Gordon, respectively. The Fort
McPherson auction will be conducted
at the prison barracks at 10 o’clock
on the morning of June 26. The date
has not been fixed for the Camp Gor
don sale.
At the same time that he an
nounced the prison barracks auction.
Captain Steel announced that, at the
direction of the war department, he
has turned over to Adjutant General
J. Van Holt Nash, the buildings on
the Fort McPherson target range for
use of the Georgia national guard.
These buildings, which will still be
owned by the government, but which
may be used free of charge by the
Georgia troops, consist of officers'
quarters and two sets of modern bar
racks, thus affording excellent ac
commodation for a large number of
men.
The number to be sold is said to
have been made available to the
public through the efforts of John
A. Manget, state fair-price commis
sioner, who has been very active in
efforts to relieve the present short
age of dwelling houses.
The buildings to be sold at the
war prison camp, consist of two sets
of officers’ quarters, nineteen bar
racks and twelve mess halls. Prob
ably a number of shops and office
buildings also will be sold. They
were built in 1917 and 1918, at a cost
of'about SIIO,OOO, and are large
enough to accommodate upwards of
1,300 men.
In the opinion of construction men
it will be possible, through buying
this lumber, to build dwellings at
prices far below those now prevail
ing for construction material.
Captain Steel announces that full
details may be secured from him at
Fort McPherson. To reach the bar
racks take the U. S. barracks, East
Point, Hapeville or College Park cars,
get off at Campbellton road, Dow
man-Dozier station, and go one mile
west to the camp site. Circulars an
nouncing the sale, declare that this
is an opportunity for people of At
lanta to improve housing conditions.
A total of 136 biuldings will be
sold at Camp Gordon, according to
Captain Brandon ninety-six bar
racks and forty mess halls. Each of
the barracks contains about 15,000
feet of lumber and the mess halls
about half that amount. Captain
Brandon proposes to conduct the sale
so that small investors will the
opportunity to buy. Many of the
buildings have just been completed
and have never been occupied, all
the lumber being practically new.
Captain Brandon that
enough lumber can be salvaged from
these buildings to errect 125 four
room dwelling houses. Full details
of this sale will h? announced later.

Georgia led Alabama, Florida,
Louisiana and Mississippi in the
number of stills destroyed, with 254,

PRESIDENT MAY
NOT INDICATE
HIS 1920 CHOICE
WASHINGTON, June 17.—There
was growing belief among Demo
crats here today that the San Fran
cisco convention may begin and
without any definite indication as
to who is President Wilson’s choice
for Dempcratic presidential nomi
nee.
The men who entertain this belief
make no pretense of knowing Mr.
Wilson’s mind on the subject of
candidates. They admit their theory
is based on what they believe the
president will regard as good po
litical strategy and that it may bb
knocked out at any moment.
Democrats point but, however, that
there are a number of presidential
possibilities acceptable to Mr. Wil
son. For him to select any one of
them as his first choice would unite
against that man both during the
convention and afterward all the
anti-administration feeling within
and without the Democratic party,
they say.
On the other hand, politicians say.
Mr. Wilson could allow the San
Francisco convention to run along
to a point where the nomination of
some one man could be- easily ac
complished. He could then quietly
pass the word to his followers to
swing the administration backing to
that man. If that course were fol
lowed the presidential decision would
probably not be known except to a
very few leaders in the convention.
Compress Concern, of
$30,000 Capital, Asks
To Pay Stock Dividend
The Allied Compress company of
Augusta has petitioned the railroad
commission for authority to issue a
stock dividend of $40,000 on an ex
isting capitalization of $30,000. Last
November th-, company increased its
rates, as did all compress companies
in Georgia, by authority of the com
mission. Being a public utility sub
ject to the commission’s jurisdiction
in Una matter of securities as well
as rates, it must obtain the com
mission’s authority for its stock div
idend. The petition has been set for
a hearing July 13.
The Griffin Ice, Gas and Cold Stor
age company has filed a petition to
be allowed to increase its gas rates
from $1.50 per 1,000 cubic feet, net,
to $1.90 per 1,000 cubic feet, net.
The petition has been set for a near
ing July 13.
commission has set for a hear
ing on June 24 the petition of the
Georgia Railway and Power company
for permission to issue promissory
notes, aggregating, to pay its share
of the cost of paving a portion of
Marietta street. The notes are to run
one, two and three years, and are to
be made payable to the city of At
lanta or its assigns. In the event
of their issuance, they would likely
be indorsed over to the saving con
tractor, as was done before by the
city in a paving project where the
company paid its assessment with
notes.
Says Miners Are Hungry
Despite High Wages
COLUMBUS, Ohio, June 17.
Though miners are receiving the
highest wages ever paid them and
the demand for coal is far in excess
of the supply, many Ohio miners are
actually , sugering from hunger, ac
cording t ( o George W. Savage, secre
tary-treasurer of the Ohio United
Mine Workers.
Mr. Savage has received an appeal
for aid from miners at Byesville,
Guernsey county. The miners say
they have been averaging only one
day’s work a week for some time
owing to the car shortage.
According to Mr. Savage, mines
furnishing railroad fuel are able to
operate on full time and he severely
criticizes the interstate commerce
commission for alleged discrimina
tion. "We have been trying for years
to get an equitable distribution of
cars,” Mr. Savage said. "The inter
state commerce commission has
talked, but never acted.”
Alessandri Accidentally
Shot by Policeman
SANTIAGO Chile, June 16.—Inves
tigation of the alleged attempt
against the life of Arthuro Alessan
dri, presidential candidate of the
Liberal alliance, early this week, has
established the fact that the shots
were fired by a policeman, and were
not directed against Senor Allessan
dri.
The officer, who was in' civilian
clothes, was on duty in front of the
senator’s house when he was seized
from behind and had his pocket
picked. His assailants also seized
his watch and chain. As he was
released, the officer drew his re
volver and fired twice in the air to
summon help. It was believed at the
time that the man had attempted to
assassinate the presidential candi
date.
Negro Who Shot
Sheriff Killed
MACON, Ga„ June 17.—Walter
Smith, negro, who shot Sheriff Jar

panied by Sheriff Middlebrooks, of

When Deputy Story and Sheriff
Middlebrooks came up on the negro,
the fugitive opened fire with a re
volver from ambush. Deputy Story
returned the fire, using a shotgun
lo.’ded with buckshot, instantly kill
ing tue negro.
BRYAN TO OPPOSE
NOMINATION OF
GOVERNOR COX
(The Atlanta Journal News Bureau,
623 Rises Building,)
BY THEODOR TIT.Xii:R
WASHINGTON, June 17.—William
Jennings Bryan will be the official
"bodyguard” of a "dry” plank if it
is inserted in the Democratic plat
form at the San Francisco conven
tion, and will see that such a plat
form is not "lost” between the reso
lutions committee room and the con
vention hall, as mysteriously hajr
pened at Chicago. ,
This was the promise today of the
Anti-Saloon league through Wayne B.
Wheeler, general counsel, who at the
same time announced the unalterable
opposition of the league and Mr.
Bryan to the candidacy of Governor
Cox, of Ohio. Mr. Wheeler says the
Ohio governor is the last resort of
the "wets,” and his nomination by
the Democrats is unthinkable and
would be "a menace to law and
order.”
"The resolutions committee at Chi
cago adopted a law-enforcement plank
and lost it between the .committee
room and the convention,” observes
Mr. Wheeler. "Mr. Bryan will act
as a bodyguard for it if it is adopted
by the resolutions committee at San
Francisco.”
Once having a dry plank in his
possession, Mr. Bryan will prove a
husky bodyguard, and nobody will
get it away from him. according to
Washington belief. And both Mr.
Bryan and the league will demand
the inclusion of such a plank in the
party platform, despite the hunch
of many Democratic politicians that
the party may win if it is just a
bit “moist” by carrying the solid
south, most of the east and possibly
Ohio. Indiana and California.
Governor Cox is now firmly written
on the blacklist of Messrs. Bryan
and Wheeler and their "dry” co
horts. Quoting Mr. Bryan today, Mr.
Wheler declared that all the dry
influences would be thrown against
nomination of Governor Cox.
“The friends of law enforcement,”
he said, "will present a solid front
against Governor Cox. He is the
last hope of the wets in their pro
gram for nullification. Governor
Cox’s makes him an impossibility, if
national prohibition is to be effective
ly sustained and enforced. He has
served the wets long and faithful
ly. He championed the license law
of Ohio, under which he had the ap
pointing 'power of license boards to
build a strong political wet ma
chine. He encouraged lawlessness in
Ohio by refusing to aid the friends
of law and order after the state had
twice adopted a state constitutional
provision by referendmu vote. His
declaration for light wine and beer
amendment, which is a nullification
measure, will alienate not only the
‘drys.’ but the frineds of law and
order.”
Mr. Wheeler quotes William J.
Bryan as saying that “Governor Cox’s
record is as malodorous as that of
Governor Edwards, and extends over
a longer period.” It is the height
of audacity that a man with such a
record and such a support, should
aspire to a Democratic nomination in
face of the fact that every Democratic
state ratified the prohibition amend
ment, and the further fact that
thirty-four of the states are ‘dry’ by
their own individual acts.
After quoting Mr. the coun
sel for the Anti-Saloon league says
tnat Governor Cox is the logical can
didate of the west, “but now that the
nation is under constitutional prohibi
tion, his candidacy is unthinkable
and a menace to law and order.”
Mr. Wheeler says the prohibition
ists will ask the Democratic conven
tion to include a dry plank in its
platform reading as follows: "We
declare for the effective enforcement
of the eighteenth amendment ana
laws enacted pursuant thereto as con
strued by the supreme court of the
United States.”
Start War on Weevil
In Monroe Countyt
FORSYTH, Ga., June 16.—Believ
ing in the correstness of the theory
that one boll weevil killed now will
mean thousands less on the cotton
plant later, the business men of For
syth and Monroe county have raised
a fund of several hundred dollars to
be expended on a fight to minimize
the damage by the pest this summer.
Two cents each will be paid for every
boll weevil caught in Monroe county
and brought to the courthouse in
Forsyth between now and July 15.
The committee in charge of the
campaign against the, weevil is
flooding the county with advertising
matter urging the people to push the
campaign. They state there is no

BRADSTREET SEES
DECREASED PRICE
IN CERTAIN LINES
The prediction that decreased
prices in certain commodities are
near at hand is contained in the
weekly summary of financial, indus
trial and agricultural conditions in
the southeast for the week ending
June 16, of J. E. C. Redder, south
eastern superintendent for the Brad
street Mercantile agency.
The report, which has been for
warded to the Bradstreet publica
tion an New York, also ’points out
that building activities in Atlanta
and the southeast are showing great
ly increased activity, that money re
mains “tight,” that the labor situa
tion is showing considerable improve
ment, and that the period covered by
the report has been highly favorable
to crops.
Mr. I’edder’s report follows:
"Wholesale and retail trade is fair;
manufacturing good. There has been
a slowing up in collections for the
past few weeks. Reports generally
are little better than fair, with an
increased number of bankruptcies.
Retail trade is not as active as dur
ing the big cut-price sales, and con
servatism still prevails in the buy
ing of high-priced goods. Wholesal
ers report a tendency to cut and
cancel for future shipment.
“A general idea prevails that a de
crease in price in certain lines, par
ticularly leather and silk goods,
in sight. Building is very active
despite shortage and high prices of
material. Permits for the first fif
teen days of June broke all previous
records in Atlanta’s history. Esti
mates of over $2,000,000 for the
month are being made.
“Money continues tight with high
rates,, and with the demand active.
The labor situation has improved,
and there is apparently a better un
derstanding between labor and em
pjoyers.
"The week has been favorable for
crops. Corn is fairly good ajid cot
ton has improved. It is freely pre*
dieted that there will be a decided
shortage of cotton. More foodstuffs
have been • planted than in previous
years.”
Father of Kidnaped
Baby Loses $.12,000
Paid for Its Return
NORRISTOWN, Pa., June 17. —The
police again took up the search for
thirteen-month-old Blakeley Cough
lin, stolen from his crib on June 2.
At the same time they were looking
for a person known only as The
Crank,” who swindled George H.
Coughlin, the baby’s father, of $12,-
000. which was demanded for the re
turn of the child.
After receiving several letters and
telephone calls from “The Crank,’/
Coughlin became convinced he was
the abductor, and asked the police
to withdraw from the case so he
personally could negotiate with the
writer. "The Crank’ ’at first de
manded only $6,000 ransom, but later
doubled it. On Monday he called
Mr. Coughlin on the telephone, and
gave him instructions where to leave
the money. He acquiesced in a re
quest of the father that another maa
not connected with the police depart
ment accompany him to the spot, but
designated they should not go to the
place before midnight, and that they
must deposit the cash and drive
away without making the slightest
attempt to discover his identity.
The child would be returned in a
taxicab, “The Crank” said, within
twenty-four hours.
Mr. Coughlin said he had com
plied with every demand of the kid
naper, and felt confident the baby
would be returned Tuesday night
Both he and Mrs. Coughlin remained
up all night. At 3 o’clock the next
afternoon he drove to the spot where
he left the money, and found it gone.
He then gave up hope, he said, and
realized that he had been defrauded.
He placed the case in tne hands of
the authorities last night and an
nounced he had abandoned all desire
of dealing directly with the ab
ductors, who had been promised im
munity if the child was returned.
With the latest developments in the
case, bot hthe police and Coughlins
have abandoned the theory tnat the
baby was kidnaped for ransom.
They are inclined to believe that re
venge was the motive.
may be caught, and the plan is open
to participation by every man, wom
an and child—white and black—in
Monroe county.

CHRONIC DISEASES
ARE OFTEN CAUSED
DY IRON-POOR BLOOD
Indigestion, Rheumatism, Sleeplessness, Nervousness,
and Sifnilar Troubles Have Been Found to
Be Due in Many Cases to Lack
of Iron in the Blood.
THE OBVIOUS REMEDY IS ZIRON
z
When doctors al! 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 j'oints, 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 secret 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 Ziron, 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)
