ALL WRONG
' WAS HER LIVER
’Before Taking Black
; Draught, Missouri Lady
t Was Troubled With
I Constipation, Head
ache and Bad Taste
in Mouth
Grandin, Mo.—Mrs. Susa Brooks.
•f this place, writes: “Some time
ago I was in a bad fix, with stom
ach and liver trouble. I did not
feel good at any time. I was very
Bonstipated, and had headaches
from this condition, and had a con
tinual hurting in my stomach, and
bad taste in the mouth. Could tell
•njy liver was all wrong.
“I had known of Black-Draught,
bo decided to try it myself. I be
gan with a large dose or doses,
gradually 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.”
A;Tf you get up in the morning
Reeling 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.

HARDING MAKES
ARMISTICE DAY
SPEECH IN TEXAS
BROWNSVILLE, Texas, Nov. 11.
President-elect Warren G. Harding
abandoned his fishing today and
came here to make an Armistice day
speech, his first set speech since
his election.
It was with some difficulty and
no little personal discomfort that
the sunburned president-elect got
into his tartohed shirt, and high
collar. He has grown fond of the
soft shirt, broad hayseed hat, the
loose brown denim trousers and the
soft canvas shoes he has worn since
his arrival here.
Brownsville was gaily decked out
for the big day which is to com
memorate not only Armistice Day,
but the completion of preliminary
arrangeents looking to opening of a
harbor at Point Isabel, which is
expected to aid in development of
the entire lower Rio Grande valley.
Nearly every town for a hundred
miles around had a delegation here.
Governor Hobby, of Texas, was ex
pected.
Senator Harding had a picturesque
setting for his appearance here,
almost a foreign one. Little old
Mexican lace makers sat cross-leg
g-d in front of their tiny shops with
their wares piled high around them,
bargaining with visitors for a sale.
Ranchers came in with their high
boots white with the dust of the
plains. Sombreros and bright col
ored shirts added variety to the
scenes in the narrow streets.
Burros and donkey carts clattered
over the cobblestones, dodging the
big automobiles of the more prosper
ous ranchers. Mexicans came over
from Matamoros and watched stolid
ly out of their dark eyes. In con
-trast with this motley scene were
the clean-cut American soldiers
from the post, who formed an escort
for Senator Harding.
He was to speak from the parade
grounds at Fort Brown. The Amer
ican legion is in charge of the day’s
program.
Believing Man Inside
Officials Enter Safe;
Vault Found Empty
OTTAWA, 111., Nov. 11. —Officials
■ of the National City Bank of Otta
wa, city officials and villagers
worked feverishly last night and un
til early Thursday morning to open
the bank’s safe, believing shat Fran
cis J. Carey, a teller in the bank,
had been locked inside by bank rob
bers.
When- two mechanics had cut
; through the six-inch steel door with
I acetyline torches, no one was in
side, and the $60,000 taken from the
safe was recovered.
Terence Connolly, an Ottawa resj-
I dent, stepped from the rear door of
i a soft drink establishment adjoining
i the bank about 7 o’clock last night
I and a man standing in the rear of
i the bank dropped a package and fled,
I apparently in the belief that Connol
ily was watching him. The missing
I currency was in the package.
i Bank and city officials called upon
I the Joliet penitentiary for expert
safe-blowers imprisoned there, but
I were told that none now serving
time there would be of assistance in
opening a modern vault door.
Telephoning Chicago police, a band
of safe experts and mechanics was
has*il.'- organized, as the' bank offi
cials feared Carey would smother
quickly in the vault. A special train
with the life-saving crew made a
special run to Ottawa but before its
arrivals a four-inch hole had been
burned through the door and by the
| light of a flashlight. Sheriff C. S.
Ayers, of Ottawa, saw the safe was
empty.
When the bolts of the safe door
had been opened, Charles C. Taylor,
president of the bank, entered and
; found that the separate compart
: ments belonging to the various em
j ployos of the bank had been opened
I cash contents taken.
When a search was made for Ca
rey, his mother, Mrs. Thomas C. Ca
rey, said he had not returned home
since supper.

Detectives Seek Author
Os Threat on Legion
i COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 11. —De-
; partment of justice operatives today
I were attempting to find a clue to the
! person or persons who last night left
| a note under a door at American Le
; gion headquarters warning ex-sol-
I diers not to participate in today’s
Armistice day parade. The note read:
“Don’t try to get away with that
paradrt We spoiled one. We’ll send
you war lovers to hell.”
Members of local posts of the
American Legion said the note would
not interfere their participation
in today’s parade. However, police
and federal agents were on a close
lookout for developments.
Veterans of three wars—the world
war, the Spanish-American war and
the civil war—planned to march in
the parade.

GERMAN EXPORTS
ARE INCREASING;
COTTON NEEDED
I
BY - GEORGE WITTE
(Special Cable to the Chicago Daily News
Foreign Service, by Leased Wire to
' The Atlanta Journal.)
(Copyright, 1920.)
BERLIN, Germany, Nor. 10.—Sur
veys made by the American commle
sion in Germany show on the one
hand that the coaJ shortage la not as
acute as the Germans desire the
world to believe on the other
hand that a large percentage of the
industries, particularly the cotton
mills, are lying Idle because of the
lack of raw materials. But even
though many Industries are shut
down, the comparative figures ob
tained prove that Germany is slow
ly but surely getting on her feet
again. Since last April her exports
have exceeded her import® and are
still increasing steadily.
Though under Spa agreement Ger
many must deliver 2,000,000 tons of
coal per month she really draws upon
her home * supplies only to the ex
tent of 200,000 tons because before
the war she sold 1,000,000 tons to
France and England each month. In
addition the production of coal
increased by 800,000 tons a month.
France, however, demands high grade
coal and while Germany is not suf
fering from an actual coal shortage
she does suffer from a shortage of
steam and gas coal. It is chiefly for
this reason that so many factories
which were fitted for using high
grade coal only are lying idle.
The American commission holds
that there ought to be enough coal to
keep the people themselves warm
this winter particularly because the
production of brown coal has in
creased tremendously.
In the Saxon cotton mills, 2,500,-
000 spindles out of 8,750,000, are idle
because of the shortage in raw cot
ton. Now that the value of the mark
has Tallen again German industrial
ladders are hoping that the Ameri
cans will take advantage of the op
portunity to stare the mills running
again by sending cotton over here,
have it manufactured into cloth at a
very low cost as the result of the
.cheap German labor and then hav
ing the finished products shipped
back to the United States.
Statistics show that exports from
Germany were the largest when the
value of the mark was the lowest,
which was last spring, and that they
dropped off again when the mark
rose in value. The figures available
show that while in January the ex
ports amounted in value to a little
more than 3,000,000,000 marks (nor
mally $750,000,000) and the imports
to 6,000,000,000 marks ($1,650,000,-
000) in May the exports reached 6,-
500,000,000 marks while the imports
fell to 5,500,000,000 marks ($1,375,-
000,00).
With large orders coming in from
Russia for locomotives, cutlery and
textile goods and the prospect of tne
resumption of commercial relating
with the United States on a fairly
normal basis, German industries are
looking forward to winter with less
anxiety than a year ago.
Boat Off Ireland

LONDON, Nov. 11. —While a steam
er carrying army stores was pro

'TpHIS is the ARITHM-A-LETTA, the new invention, hailed-as more mysterious and fascinating than the Ouija board.
I 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
’ompleted 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 on 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 every 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.
