HOPE FOR LEAGUE IN REPUBLICAN PARTY, SAYS TAFT BY WILLIAM HOWARD '.’ATT (Copyright, 1920, for the Atlanta Journal) What is the League of Nations is sue which Mr. Wilson desires to sub mit, by the referendum of next elec tion, to the American people. Mr. Wilson was given the oppor tunity in November and again a few months later, to head the United States in the League of Nations which now is functioning. The United States would have been released from the obligation of Article X of the league and would have saved for Its own interpretation and enforcement its Monroe doctrine. These »were the only substantial reservations. The othernations informally acquiesced in them. Nevertheless Mr. Wilson in sisted on having no league at all rather than to release the United States in these two respects. If the Democratic party in conven tion is to declare, as Mr. Wilson says it shall, that he was right and so is to pledge his successor to this course in the future, then in case of Democratic victory we shall never ratify this treaty and never enter this league. This should be apparent to the frienas of the present league of Nations. Whatever the vote in the election, the constitution will still remain, and bv that instrument two-thirds of the senate are required to ratify the treaty and the league. There are now forty-nine Republi can senators. Os these, terms of fif teen expire in the coming election. If the impossible were to happen, and every one of those Republicans were succeeded by a Democrat pledged to vote for the Wilson league, there still would be thirty-five Republican senators, of whom but one, Mr. Mc- Cumber, would vote for it, while there are two Democratic senators at least, and are probably more, who would side with the Republicans in refusing to ratify. In other words, this means an in evitable vote against the league without reservations of more than one-third of the senate, and its cer tain defeat. Moreover, the fifteen Re publican senators whose places are to be filled, come from states most of which are sure to return Repub licans. A vote for the Democratic nominee on Mr. Wilson’s platform, therefore, means a vote against the league as certainly as if Hiram John son had been nominated and elected on the platform which he. demanded and did not get at Chicago. Wilson Consistent Mr. Wilson is consistent. His at titude is 'exactly what it was dur ing the treaty discussion and con troversy. His is the rule or ruin policy. “I must have all I ask or I will take nothing. I must have the league exactly as I made it or I will destroy the prospect of the United States entering any league at all.” He is, therefore, so far as practical achievement of a league is con cerned, in exactly the same seat as Mr. Borah, Mr. Johnson and the other “bitter enders.” Mr. Wilson ignores plaitn facts which take away from his striking sentences their practical value. He continues to treat the independent judgment and determination of Re publican senators as to the necessity for qualifying the obligations of the United States under the league as of negligible importance. The two thirds provision in the senate was framed in order to give a veto power to more than a third of the senate who believe fundamental principles to be violated in a proposed treaty and who against a majority In a gen eral election, need not feel under ob ligation to give up their objections. This is a subject upon which the Re publican senators have made up their minds. Nothing will move them from the positions to which they have adhered since the beginning. A Democratic victory, therefore, means no league at all. But how would it be if Mr. Hard ing is elected? Mr. Harding voted for the league wi(h the fourteen res ervations in November, 1919, and again later. In the second vote, seven more Democratic votes would have made sixty-four needed to rati fy this league with reservations. If Mr. Wilson had not himself interven ed to prevent it all but three or four Democratic would have voted for the league with the then reservations, h’orty of the Democrats out of forty seven, agreed to reservations on the two crucial articles to wit: The Mon roe Doctrine reservations and Article X, which cannot be substantially dis tinguished from the reservation which more than two-thirds of the Republicans and majority of the Democrats wished. The Democrats wished to say the same £t>ing only twice, where the Re publicans had said it three times. In respect to Article X both the Demo cratic reservations, offered in tha al ternative took away the binding ob ligation of the United States under the article, and left acion under it wholly to the discretion of con gress when the case should arise. Just as did the Republican reserva tion. though in somewhat different phraseology. \ Republicans to Adopt League When the issue comes again, the senators on both sides will still re tain their convictions and vote ac cordingly, and if they do, with the dictation of Mr. Wilson removed and after a Republican victory there is not the slightest doubt that the league with substantially the Lodge reservations will be ratified. A Re publican president who voted for it before then will lead the nation into the league with the reservations and will be welcomed by the other league members. This is -what the Republican plat form means. But even if that plat form is not affirmative, as its Demo cratic critics claim it is not, surely no onb can contend that it prevents senators who voted for the league with' reservations from doing so again. For these reasons, the nub of the referendum to which Mr. In vites the people of the United States really is, whether, by voting for the Democratic candidate, we shall sup port an impossible ideal and have no league at all, or whether, by vot ing for the Republicans’ candidate, we shall actually enter the league and help the world. Posses Search for Slayer of Negro MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga.. June 22. Tom Ray, th% negro, who Monday at noon shot and instantly killed Mr. Dewitt Faulkner, a well-to-do white farmer of Baldwin county, is still at large. During Monday afternoon and through the night a posse of about one hundred men from Baldwin. Wilkinson and Jasper counties was in search of the negro.

BERL.N—So scarce is grain in Germany that German chil dren may be seen in public parks leading hens on leashes that they may pick up sufficient food to live. Eggs are very expensive in stores here and were it not for the co-operation of the children and the chickens it is doubtful whether the poor would ever taste eggs. / STOLEN EXPRESS IS LOCATED IN VALDOSTiA HOUSE VALDOSTA, Ga., June 22.—Spe cial Agent Futch, assisted by Police man Arant, has located a large amount of stolen goods, including a Victrola, and they believe they have unearthed a very shrewd piece of robbery. The stolen articles were found at the home of Pearl Pearson, colored, on Perry street, where they were sent by express from Jackson ville. It is alleged that - the ar ticles were shipped by express and diverted by clerks in the office at Jacksonville .billing and marking them to the Valdosta negress to be reshipped to Jackson ville on order from the ones who did the stealing. The special agent of the American Express company has been trying to locate the cause of the puzzling shortages in shipments for some time. Every Item on his list was recovered. Falls With Pole Elmer Lastinger, an eighteen-year oid boy, is lingering between life and death at the hospital here as a result of the falling off a telephone pole to which he was buckled with a safety belt. The pole was rotten at the ground and when ti fell ot rebounded so as to strike him in the face and head. The glass insulation globe which he had just nailed to the pole broke and cut his face badly, the skkull being fractured. He was hur ried to the hospital where an opera tion was performed, hoping to save his life. Wolf Lipsitz, a well known mer chant of Jennings, Fla., was here Monday conferring with the officers in an effort to locate S3OO in cash and S9OO in diamonds stolen from his house Saturaw night. He had the valuables in his pocket when he went home from the store. He left his trousers bn a chair in his room when he went to sleep. The thief crawl ed through a window of his dining room, carried the trousers out on the back porch and rifled the pockets, taking the money and jewelry. Lynching Is Feared For Man Charged With Attack on Girl WILMINGTON, Del., June 22. Isaiah Fountain, a negro, convicted for criminal assault upon a thirteen year-old white girl in Trappe, Md., was surrounded early today in a woods near Hebron, Md., by an armed posse of approximately 600 persons. Open threats were made against his life and officials fear they will not be able to hold the posse in check should he be captured. Fountain twice escaped from the Easton, Md., jaiL. He was con.victea on April 19 and sentenced to be exe cuted. A few weeks later he escaped, but was quickly captured at Sea ford, Del. He got away again last Wednesday night and since then posses have been searching the coun tryside in all directions. Shortly after midnight last night the posse surrounded him in a swamp near Laurel, Del., but the fugitive .succeeded in breaking through the jiet. A short time later the negro was again cornered in the Hebron woods and it was said his capture was only a matter of hours. When the posse entered this state from Maryland it coipprised only about 200 persons, but every town passed through has furnished addi tional members until the number has been tripled. Mr. DeWitt Faulkner Is iKlled by Negro MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga., June 21. Mr. DeWitt Faulkner, a well-known farmer residing ten miles east of Milledgeville, in Baldwin county, was killed by Tom A. Ray. a negro, about 11 o’clock Monday morning. .The negro lived in a plantation adjoining Mr. Faulkner. The negro and the white man had had some trouble several days ago. it is understood, and on his approach ing the negro unexpectedly, the col ored man fired five shots into the body of Mr. Faulkner, who had just crossed the Oconee river on a ferry when he came in contact with the negro. The latter emptied his pistol into the white man’s body, afterwards escaping. It is believed that the negro headed down the swamp of the Oconee river towards Mclntyre and Dublin. Mr. Faulkner was twenty-eight years of age and recently moved from Jasper county. ' Drainage Advocates Convene in Macon MACON, Ga., June 22.—Dr. A. M.

Aber crombie, head of the state depart ment of health, will be the principal speakers at the eighth annual con vention of the Georgia Drainage as sociation which convened at Hotel Dempsey here today. The conven tion will last only one day. One hundred delegates, including some of the leading men in this and other states, are attending the convention. Dr. L. G. Hardman, of Commerce, is president. GEORGIANS ENJOY INSPIRING SIGHTS ABOUT PIKE’S PEAK BY ROGERS WINTER (Staff Correspondent of The Journal) COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., June 22. —The cave of the winds, the gar den of the gods, the moonlight ride by automobile to the top of Pike’s Peak and all the other wonders of Colorado Springs have put the regu lar Georgia delegates through a whirlwind pace for sixteen hours. As this dispatch is written the roll has been called and all answered present, tired and dusty and practically without sleep, stunned by the gran deur of this wonderlland where pre historic unheavals of the earth playl ed havoc with the landscape, but everyone happy and carried away with the picturesque beauty of Colo rado Springs, The train was scheduled to resume its western journey at eleven this morning and the delegates were fish ing out of grips and suit cases their goggles for the ride through the Royal gorge, which is next on the program of Rocky mountain thrillers. FORMER GEORGIAN TAKES PARTY xTO PIKE’S PEAK BY ROGERS WINTER (Staff Correspondent of The Journal.) COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Mon day Night, June 21.—While the eWstern Union operator was ticking off these rambling remarks con cerning the day’s doings of the regular Georgia delegates to the ’Frisco convention, the delegates and the writer*were emerging from their berths for a moonlight ride by automobile to the top of Pike’s peak. These remarks were written before the trip started* If the writer sends no more and searching parties are sent out to find the regular delegates, their relatives and friends will be seasonably accurate in guessing that they fell off the side of the mountain. But Bill Mcßride, erstwhile citizen of Cedartown, Ga., whose present ad dress is Colorado Springs, and whose lucrative profession is the hauling of to the top of Pike’s peak in his trusty touriifg car by the light of the moon, or without moonlight, as the case may be, assured us be fore departing that he had been on the water wagon for five years steady, and further assured us that the tree tops would catch us if we went overbqard on the dizzy climb. Further than that, he made it known that he was going to take particular pains with these Georgia Crackers, in view of the fact that they hail from the state where he was born. Monday was a day packed full of sight-seeing for the Georgia delega tion. They spent the morning and the afternoon observing sage grass and wheat and prairie dogs across the state of Kansas and half of Col orado. A reward was offered any body in the party who would find a tree with the naked eye or with Judge McMath’s field glasses fetched from Americus, but nobody saw one, although they scanned some six hun dred miles Mbf unobstructed land scape. Kansas and Colorado are intensely . interesting for a change. They look like the prairies of south Georgia with their trees stripped off and the land turned to grass, with this big exception, that south Georgia lands are littered with swamps while these western plains are as dry as dust. Felix Jackson, who went to the west when somewhat younger than he is today and live'd on the plains with herds of cattle for several years, ex plained that the interval between drinks in Kansas is often very long, as much as three years. This may have had something to do with the Kansas prohibition laws. Whenever the train stopped in Kans is and some bold member of the party imbued with the spirit of a pioneer would get off to look around, Mr. Jackson would warn him that it is against the law to do anything in Kansas no matter what. All of the delegates got through the state without com plications with the constabulary. Startling Switch in Scenery Six hundred miles of unbroken prairie was a good prelude for the stopover here where the scenery switched with startling suddenness. The biggest obstruction to the’ l view in Kansas was a Hereford gteer or a flock of steers every few hundred miles, and they weren’t big enough to make it necessary to turn a curve to see around them. The Kansas steers were taking their time with their grazing. They seemed to have it figured out that there was no neces sity for gobbling up the grass. There was enough in sight to last them a while. A million steers eat ing grass a million years wouldn’t more than fray the edges of the Kan sas plain. Suddenly in the west rose the Rocky mountains just in time to persuade some members of the dele gation that they hadn’t lost their way and got involved in an ever lasting sea of sage grass and wheat. Os course everybody at once quit searching for a tree in the plains and began to watch the mountains march ing towards the train as it slowly climbed the heights of the Colorado table land. Frolicsome Mountains Certain gentlemen engaged in their usual pastime in the drawing room of the car, Arabia, which has no la dies, could not understand the pecu liar behavior of Pike’s peak and oth ers. They were under the impres sion that the Rocky Mountains were fixed and immovable and that only the train occasionally turned a wheel. But the more they tried to find the mountains and keep an eye on them, the more the mountains shifted. It was exasperating. First they would appear on the right of the train, then they would nimbly leap the track and exhibit themselves in a frolicsome manner on the left of the train. The drawing room gentlemen finally gave it up and returned to their interminable and fascinating pastime of guessing the identity of the cards in the hole. Locking the door behind them they requested the other members of the party to call them out when the mountains got still and went to roost for the eve ning. A Hereford steer was big enough to attract attention on the Kansas plains. Even a prairie dog loomed on the landscape. But the pre-his toric dinosaurus would look like an ant in the Garden of Gods. Nature, it seems, began at Kansas City and swept the earth clean for a thousand miles and piled up everything here in one place. The plains are over whelmingly and terribly empty, but the landscape b erea bouts in Colorado is overwhemiingly and terribly full, not to say crowded. Three hours of daylight were left to the party on arriving in this beautiful city spread out in a valley through which ran the trail of the forty-niners, who drove their prairie schooners across the continent in search of gold. Bill Mcßride, the aforementioned native of Cedartown, Ga., and other enter prising drivers of sight-seeing autos, did not wait for the train to pull into the station. They met it in the outskirts and organized their par ties on board the cars, and what they showed this aggregation of unterri fied Democrats from the Empire State of the sunny south was a gasp ing plenty. Inspiration Points Mcßride’s party included Charles S. Barrett, national president of the Farmers’ union, and Mack tried to outtalk the distinguished chairman of the delegation. It was not long before he gave it up. Previously the wags on board the Arabia had dubbed the chairman “O. D. Barrett,” which initials may signify olive drab or something else, according to the cir cumstances surrounding the bestowal of the title, but those in Mcßride’s car took the liberty of changing it to “Silent” Barrett. The grandeur of the scenery seemed to go to his head. Never before has a man given voice to such matchless eloquence. After hearing Chairman Barrett discourse upon the scenery, we could under stand why Helen Hunt Jackson sought the summit of a rock 1.000 feet high overlooking South Cheyenne canon to write “Romona.” They call the summit “Inspiration Point” be cause she went there to write her story. Every rock and every moun tain was an “inspiration point” for Chairman Barrett. Mcßride and his fellows of the sightseeing business packed about as much scenery in those three hours as a man can see anywhere on earth. It would be necessary to journey to U. S. NOW HAS A TRADE BALANCE OF 17 BILLIONS WASHINGTON, June 22.—(8y the Associated Press.) —Since the begin ning of the world war in 1914, the United States has rolled up a trade balance of approximately $17,000,- 000,000, the total balance in favor of the United States from 1875 to 1914. Department of commerce figures today show that the trade balance made in favor of the United States in the fiscal year ending in 1914, one month before the war .began, was only $470,000,000. During the first year of the war it was $1,094,419,600 and in the next year ending June 30, 1916, it was $2,135,599,375. During the day, succeeding year, the total was $3,530,693,209. Meantime, the United States had entered the struggle and in the year ending June 30,1918 —the first full fiscal year of America’s participa tion—the balance was only $2,974,- 055,973. In the next year ending last June 30, however, it was $4,136,562,- 618. During the first eleven months of this fiscal year the balance was only $2,788,451,602, but exports were larg er in those eleven months than in any other full fiscal year in the na tion’s history, totalling $7,474,193,349 as against the previous twelve months’ record of $7,232,282,686, made during the last fiscal year. At the same time that America’s export trade began to advance by leaps and bounds, the import trade also showed an enormous increase, totalling $2,917,883,510 in the year ending June jJO, 1916, and advancing steadily each year tcR a new high record of $4,685,741,747 during the eleven months of the present fiscal year. The previous high record was $3,095,720,068 lasti year. Most of the favorable trade bal ance of the United States has been against the allied and neutral coun tries of Europe. Many of the South American and North American coun tries and some of those in the far east have a balance against the United States. Dream of Death of Wife and Children Drives Man Speechless Speechless from fright caused by a dream in which he thought he saw his wife and children mangled under an overturned automobile, Harry M. Jacobs, twenty-five, of Pittsburg, to day watched the national road for three touring cars. In those cars are his wife, bls children, his parents and some friends. Jacobs and his family planned an automobile tour from their, home In Pittsburg. Detained by business, Ja cobs started in an automobile six hours behind the party. An accident caused him to take a train to Terre Haute, where he hopes to intercept the tourists. Telegrams were sent from Terre Haute to cities east and west. Then Jacobs lay down to a troubled sleep and dreamed the dream that took away his power of speech. Jacobs leaped from the bed with a wild cry. He tried to cry out again, but his throat seemed to be clogged. Not n sound came forth. Jacobs then stationed a man at the road leading into Terre Haute and came here to watch for the cars. He wrote his story for the police. Convicts Escape With Clothes of Warden ALAMO, Ga., June 22—Frank Wy att and son, Mitch, white, two life term convicts, escaped from the county gang here last Wednesday. They were convicted in Laurens county superior court about two years' ago, in connection with the murder of Howard Snell, colored, liv ing at that time in this county, who was taken from his home one night, and a few days later his dead body was found over in Laurens county. Before leaving the camp the Wyatts appropriated to themselves all of the good clothes of Warden Phillips, who was away from the camp at the time, and left him with practically only the clothes he was wearing. It was several hours after their escape before the fact was 'known, when Warden Phillips was notified and a search for the men began. a different planet and use a dif ferent brand of refreshment to get as many overwhelming and terrify ing impressions. All of us were silent and timid as rabbits except Chairman Barrett. He has knocked around in the western country so many years that the scenery doesn’t stunt him. It exhilarates him. Not even a climb of 500 feet up a winding stairway to the head of Seven Falls sufficed to check his eloquence. He perched himself at the summit of the stairs and announced that he felt like making a speech. We brought him to reserve a few thousand cubic feet of eloquence for the Democratic national committee and the creden tials committee at San Francisco. Yea, Sir, Barrett Farms Speaking of Chairman Barrett, we made the discovery that he is an honest to goodness farmer. Recent ly some facetious newspapers writer intimated somewhat broadly in an article concerning the national pres ident of the Farmers’ union that most of his farming has been done in the fertile soil of hotel lobbies in our leading cities. We quipped him about it. and he laughed and told us in a very spirited manner that he has a standing offer of SI,OOO to $25 that no otner farmer in the world grows a greater variety of products than he does on his eight different farms. , T wo of these farms are situated in White county, Georgia, one at Union City, in Campbell county, where he lives; two in Upson county, where he used to live before the Farmers’ union got him; one in Ba con county, and two in Florida, near the east coast. Every known veg etable, every known fruit, every known marketable farm product, ev ery known nut-bearing tree, every known flower and every known shrub, is the modest claim he asserts for himself as an honest-to-goodness farmer, and he further claims that each and every one of his eight dif ferent farms is making a profit. He claims one acre of pecans in south Georgia that made a profit of $2,200 last year. Eight hundred thousand dues-pay ing farmers belong to the organiza tion of which Chairman Barrett is national president. lowa, Nebraska, Kansas and Colorado are thick with members of the Farmers’ union. Co operative enterprises owned by the Harmers’ union in the state of Kan sas handled $182,000,000 worth of farm products last year. The credentials committee of the Frisco convention are going to look at Charles S. Barrett a long time be fore they order him to take a seat in the beanut gallery and carry his dele gation with him. Look for Us in Trees There is Mcßride, of Cedartown, Ga., honking the horn of his Twin Six in front of the Western Union office. He has been to the parking track and got his sightseers ana wrapped them in blankets for the moonlight ride to the top of Pike’s Peak. The somewhat hungry and cruelly overworked corresponding secretary of the delegation must “close for this time,” as the classic letter writers used to say. hoping to have more the next time ,etc. .etc. He must rush to the Pullman and get his overcoat and other equipment for keeping warm in the snow-clad summit of the highest mountain in the world reached by a railway and an automobile iroad. As above explained, if nothing further is heard from the party look for us in the tree tops, where Mc- Bride assures us we will alight if the car gets unruly and plunges over one of these thousand-feet drops that lurk at every turn of the sightseeing roads. Tuesday we are scheduled to be on our way at 11 o’clock. The spokesman of the party will go di rect from Salt Lake to Frisco to be at the hearing before the national committee. The others will go by way of Los Angeles. Wedding Bells For Helen Taft •' Hfce - 4® •••••• □ £ W Helen Taft and F. J.

McAdoo, in a statement here, declar ed his recent announcement that he would not permit his name to be pre sented to the San Francisco con vention, as candidate for the Demo cratic presidential nomination, had no relation to the political interview with President Wilson published the day before. He declared he knew nothing of that interview until he saw it in print and that the presi dent knew nothing of his withdrawal until after notice of it had appeared in the newspaper. Mr. McAdoo’s statement follows: “In order to set at rest absurd ru mors and speculations which have been published to the effect that my letter of withdrawal had some rela tion to the president’s World inter view, or carried a concealed purpose, I wish to say, first, that I knew nothing whatever of the president’s interview until I saw it in the papers, and, second, that the president knew nothing whatever of my letter of withdrawal until he saw it in the public prints.” Cyclone Frightens Woman to Death YORK.

McCombs, chairman of the Demo cratic national committee from 1912 to 1916, and manager of President Wilson’s 1912 campaign, issued a statement here before leaving for San Francisco attacking what he characterized as the president’s auto cratic assumption of authority. President Wilson, he said, has no more right to call himself leader of the Democratic party, “a conception heretofore never entertained by any American,” than has Chief Justice White, former Speaker Champ Clark or Vice President Thomas R. Mar shall. Mr. McCombs announced that ar rangements had been made to obtain for him a seat in the New York dele gation, if he decides to take the floor at San Francisco. The New York delegation, he predicted, will throw its support to Governor James M. Cox, of Ohio, after casting a com plimentary vote for Governor Smith. He added that he believed a west erner, possibly from the Pacific slope, will be nominated for vice president. His statement in part “They tell me that America has pledged its word to Europe and that this word must be redeemed in the process of a national campaign. In my belief America has pledged itself to nothing. One individual, speak ing as such, permitteff- Europe to be lieve that he spoke for a nation, for in the last analysis he was nothing more than a self-appointed emissary. Nevertheless Atnerica is asked to validate this signature affixed abroad, a signature which apparently was accepted jn good faith by all the European peoples as absolute. “The president negotiates a treaty, but the senate may or may not con cur by two-thirds majority. In this particular instance there has been no concurrence. "Other nations may want a League of Nations and it may be that we do, but we do not want to commit ourselves to the League of Nations as it was brought back from Paris. It is an international issue, but it is a highly debatable question as to what importance it should have in a national campaign. Ultimately* it is a question for the president and the senate to settle. The statement then declares for reconstruction at home, rehabilitation of railway and Internal waterway transportation, and for solution of the high cost of living, “wholly apart from any international affiliations.” The statement continues: “When the great war broke out in 1914, naturally America was morp or less dazed, and was to ac cept any kind of leadership which might draw it through a possible difficulty. In this moment the chief executive again reported that he was the leader of hte party, a conception heretofore never entertained by an American. As/well might the chief justice of the United States, Mr. White, a Democrat, have made the same proclamation. So might the speaker of the house of representa tives, Champ Clark. So might the vice president, Mr. Marshall, consti tutional president, of the senate. But America was concterned with great issues, and paid no attention to what appeared to be a detail. “It was in such manner that for the first time in the history of this country autocracy came Into being. It was an autocracy which was ques tioned, but which was accepted by virtue of necessity. But this un happy hour has passed and at San Francisco we again return to true Democracy regardless of place hold ers and pot hunters. We have fin ished with the fine phrases. This country is determined to act in ac cordance with its unfailing sense of justice. The indignities of autocracy will never again be accepted by this nation. This is fundamental and no confusion will be brought about by diplomatic or financial machina tions.’ ’ Gotham Begins Test Os U. S.

Girard, Kansas R Speedy Relief From Habitual Constipation The liver is the largest and most Important organ in the body, ana when the liver refuses to act, it causes constipation, biliousness, headache, indigestion, gas, sopr stomach, bad breath, dysentery, diarrhoea, pains in back and under shoulder blades and under ribs on right side. These symptoms lead to colds, influenza ot other serious troubles unless corrected imme diately. 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, ahd 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 freqent purgatives would then be unnecessary. 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.
