ALL WRONG
WAS HER LIVER
Before Taking Black-
Draught, Missouri Lady
Was Troubled With
Constipation, Head
ache and Bad Taste
in Mouth
Grandin, Mo.—Mrs. Susa Brooks,
Os this place, write?: "Some time
ago -I wag in a bad fix, with stom
ach and liver trouble. I did not
fetl good at any time. I was very
constipated, and had headaches
from this condition, and had a con
tinual hurting in my stomach, and
bad taste in the mouth. Could tell
my liver was all wrong.
“I had known of Black-Draught,
so decided to try it myself. I be
gan with a large dose or doses,
getting to smaller doses.
It regulated my bowels, relieved me
of the hurting in my stomach,
cleaned off my liver and made me
feel like a new person.”
If you get up in the morning
feeling as tired as you did when
you went' to bed—achy, coated
tongue, bad taste in mouth, sallow
complexion—then your liver has not
done its full duty, and your system
has absorbed the poisons which your
liver should have taken away.
An occasional dose of Thedford’s
Black-Draught will help this impor
tant organ to function properly.
Get a package of Thedford’s
Black-Draught liver medicine today.
Druggists sell it, or can get it for
you.—(Advt.)

YES SIRREE! IT’S
HARD TO BREAK
INTO ATHENS JAIL
BY MBS. B. W. CARBOX.B
ATHENS, Ga., Nov. 8. —After
three hours of restless, lonesome
waiting for someone to come and
take him to jail from whence he was
to be sent' to the Atlanta federal pen
to serve one year and one day for
robbing the postoffice at Godfrey,
Ga., .Terry Hawkes, an eighteen-year
old Morgan county negro, made sev
eral unsuccessful attempts to break
back into the Clarke county jail. He
had been convicted, sentence had
been passed by Judge Sibley and Jer
ry was ready and anxious to serve
his sentence. His efforts, however,
to break into jail were far less suc
cessful than many an attempt to
break out of prison.
It all happened like this: Follow
ing the conviction, Jerry along with
a dozen or more other convicts were
huddled together in the prisoner’s
room, all seated on the little iron
benches provided for convicted law
breakers. Most of them were going
up for long trips, Jerry's sentence
being perhaps the lightest of the
bunch.
Court was adjourned and the dep
uties came to escort the prisoners
to the county jail. In some unac
countable manner, Jerry was over
looked. Possibly he was taking a
nap as is peculiar to the Georgia
darky raised on a farm. He waited
on. The bench was hard and uncom
fortable, but he sat there. The
white folks had told him to wait un
til called for and he stood his
ground.
“Shooed. Out” by Janitor
About 7 o’clock in the evening the
janitor came along and ordered Jerry
to move on. "Dey’s dun tol’ me to sot
byar, ’tell somebody tooks me ter
jail.”
"Naw, you gits outn’ here right dis
minute,” ordered the janitor.
The janitor was lord of the build
ing at night, so Jerry had to move
on. He went to the jail and knocked
on all the doors seeking admittance,
but no one was there, save the pris
oners behind the bars. He strolled
around in the lobbies, whistling a
few airs, trying in every conceivable
way to break in and then gave it up
as a bad job. A passing friend haled
him. "Whar you gwine?” asked
Jerry. . '
‘T’se gwine ter de movies'. Wanter
go, Jerry?”
Jerry assented and to the movies
they went.
Inside the movie show, Jerry
blinked once or twice, for it had been
a long time since he had seen a
moving picture and then he looked
around.
“Mammy 1” shrleited Jerry
"Lawsy massy! Jerry Hawkes, mu
chile! Whar you done cum frum,
honey? Ain’t I’se dun seen um send
you up ter a whole yar? Cum hyar,
chile, ter yer ol’ mammy.”
Jerry went. She embraced hi> •
i with all the gusto of a mother for a
wayward son.
Jerry explained to his old mammy
how he happened to be out qf the
clutches of the officers.
“Now, look’er hyar, chile. Dem
white folks done sone you up anu
youse gotter go. Git on back t
dere. I ain’t a-goin’ ter see no chile
er mine gallivatin’ round loose from
de jail. Kiss yer ole’ mammy and
git verself on back to dat dare jail.”
Jerry bade his old mammy good
bye again and wended his way back
to the jail about midnight. There wa.
no use trying to get into the lockup
at that time of night. So Jerry, find
ing an empty automobile in front of
the courthouse climbed in and slept
there the rest of the night.
Fires the Furnace
Morning foujid .Jerry awake with
the sun. Just before day it •
cold in Athens at this season of the
year. .When the colored janitor of
the court house and jail to
work Jerry offered his services. He
asked to be permitted to help buil
thn fires. The janitor assented and
Jimmy fired the furnaces.
Returning to she empty car, Jerry
waited until the sheriff arrived at
9 o’clock when he was admitted to
jail.
Meantime, the federal deputies had
sent telegrams broadcast throughout
northeast and middle Georgia giving
full description of the escaped con
vict. Posses were combing Athens
and Clarke county for Je/ry. A r<-
ward had been offered' and the
sleuths were leaving no stone un
turned to apprehend the prisoner.
Jerry, the faithful convict, Mon
day morning was carried to the At
lanta penitentiary to serve his sen
tence.
However, a movement will be start
ed by the court officials to secure
the immediate release of Jerry that
he may go back to his old “mamlhy”
in Morgan county.
Women Prove They
Can Keep a Secret;
Witness This Story
YONCALLA, Ore., Nov. B.—Women
can keep a secret. Five men of this
city who believed they were going to
be elected as mayor and councilmen
can testify to that. These men were
nominated for the city offices with
out opposition.
The women held a secret meeting
and decided that the men hadn’t been
‘ administering municipal affairs prop
i erly. ♦
They chose one of their number
for mayor and four more to complete
the "petticoat” government, quietly
passed the word and the men didn’t
know what had happened until the
votes were counted and learned that
the following had been elected:
Mayor: Mrs. Mary Bart.
Members of council: Mrs. Bernice
Wilson, Mrs. Jennie D. Lasswell-
Mrs. Nettie Hannan, Mrs. Edith B
Thompson.
Calf Follows This
Mary "to the Fair
MEMPHIS, Tenn., Nov. B.— Here’s
a story that makes Mary and her
little lamb green with envy.
It’s a story of Mary and her calf—
a shor/horn calf.
Miss Mary Ellis, of Churchill,
Tenn., has a calf which followed her
to every county fair held in West
Tennessee.
And Mary is delighted with her
■ calf, for it won first prize at every
I fair, she said today, as she showed
a string of blue ribbons as long as
I her arm.

Questions Answered
1. Q. Will lightning strike cement
or brick houses.
A. Both cement and brick are non
conductors of electricity, so there is
little likelihood of lightning strik
ing houses constructed of them.
2. Q. Why are there many lan
guages?
A. Authorities believe that all lan
guages had their origin in the dia
lects of one common language, whose
home is conjectured to have been be
tween the Baltic and Caspian seas.
The language spread with migrations
in the different places, and separa
tion and race admixture increased
the differences in the dialects until
they became distinct languages,
which in turn spread and broke up
iniu dialects.
3. Q. If a pebble is thrown over
board from a ship will it sink to the
bottom of the ocean?
A. If a stone be thrown overboard
from a ship it would pass to the bot

the specific gravity of the stone is
greater than the specific gravity of
the water.

ILLEGAL TO SEIZE
LIQUOR BOUGHT
BEFORE DRY ACT
WASHINGTON, Nov. B.—Supreme
court today held that liquor acquir
ed for personal use prior to passage
of the Volstead act is immune from
seizure.
The court made this ruling in the
case of William G. Street, who
sought to enjoin t heLincoln Safe
Deposit company, of New York, from
forcing him to remove liquor from
its vaults and to stop revenue offi
cers from proceeding against him.
Justice Clarke, in the majority
opinion, said that congress in pass
ing the Volstead act did not contem
plate seizure of liquor for personal
use.
Justice Mcßeynolds said congress
did have such intent but that the
law in that respect was unconstitu
tional.

THIS is the ARITHM-A-LETTA, the new invention, hailed as more mysterious and fascinating than the Ouija board.
Already it has become the plaything of the nation. Today it is given exclusively to Tri-Weekly Journal readers in
the chart and directions presented herewith.
The ARITHM-A-LETTA is the invention of a veteran of the world war, who began work on it while in service and
completed it in time to exhibit at the recent convention of the American Legion, where it attracted intense interest. The
ARITHM-A-LETTA will give you messages on any of the following subjects: •
BUSINESS--LUCK-WISHES-WEALTH -MARRIAGE
The directions for getting messages from the ARITHM-A-LETTA are as follows:
Select any number as a starting point in the circle 6n the subject you are interested in. Then commence to count
on the NEXT number to the one selected. Count completely around the circle, putting down on paper in a row each
eighth, seventh, sixth or fifth number as called for below. Always count to the right. If you .count the numbers off
correctly the last number will always be the one you selected at the beginning.
If subject of BUSINESS is chosen, take first or outside circle and set down every eighth number.
If subject of LUCK is chosen, take second circle from outside and set down every seventh number. *
If subject of WISHES, is chosen, take third circle from outside and set down every sixth number.
If the subject of WEALTH is chosen, take fourth circle from outside and set down every fifth number.
If the subject of MARRIAGE is chosen, take the inside circle and set down every fifth number. .
After you have set down the numbers, place the corresponding letters over them, according to the key above.
These letters in everv case will form words and the words will form complete sentences. If part of a word is at the
beginning and part at the end, join them together to form’ a word. Then arrange the words in a grammatical sentence.
