The Liver as Aid

Important as it is to keep the bowels

the liver has been stimulated The dc-
tion of S. S S. is natural liver tonic
but not a bowel mover. 1t works in
the liver cells to assist in the natural

from the blood certain constituents into
what are known as assimilable prod

the body tissues to constantly provide
new and healthy material for that which
is being destroyed by the energy Of
tissue changes.
The presence OF any blood trouble
naturally suggests a sluggish liver, but

NOTED WRITER DECLARES
BRAN INNOCENT; ISSUES
STATEMENT WITH BOOK

That Thomas Bran, who was re-
Gently released from the Federal
Prison at Atlanta. after serving sew
enteen years for the murder Of three
persons on the bark Herbert Fuller,
is innocent of the CRIME. is the belief
of Mrs. Mary Roberts Rinehart the
noted authoress, whose latest book.
The After House" parallels and is
based upon the incidents that con-
Nlcted Bran Mrs. Rinehart has re-
Gently issued a statement. through
her publishers, in which she asserts
Bram's innocence. and advances ar
8ument to sustain hcr belief,
Two Stories Parallel.
Mrs, Rinehart's story is so evident
ly modelled after the famous Bran
case that Atlantans who have read Il
and who were familiar with the local
end of the case We're able readily to
trace the resemblance. The murders
in the story ana the murders that
actually occurred on the Herbert Full
Ter were committed with an ak; the
same number of persons were on
board the fictional boat and the real
boat. Through the story the parallel
between the Ella and the real ship
Herbert Fuller is striking, and the
first mate, Singleton, of the Ella is
readily identified as Bran. the first
mate of the Herbert Fuller. Like
Bran, Singleton was suspected Of the
crime and tried, but unlike Bran
was acquitted Here Is Mrs Rine-
nart's argument, by which she sus-
tains her belief IN the innocence of
Bran.
Motive Discredted.
(a) Brams motive. lacking any otA-
er, was laid to piracy If Bran had
had any piratical ambitions, it would
have been his attempt during the ear
ly part OF the voyage to conCiliate the
crew On the contrary, his treatment
of them was so harsh that when he
feared a mutiny he implored the pas
senger to protect him from them. The
only motive which the prosecution
could attribute to the first mate was
piracy. and here we have it abso-
lutely disCredited.
(b) The crimes were hideousiv
bloody ones. The Ak left its dripping
trail up the CompaniOnway to jhe
deck, diagonally across the roof of
the afterhouse and back again to its
hiding place under a lashing plank,
eight feet forward of the port corner
nf the afterhouse Could the muir
derer have avoided being stained
with blood? or al least, fearing that
he bore the tell-tale marks over him .?
Dram was below five or six minutes
from the time Brown last saw him on
deck before he came up again. 1t
does not appear how long he was De-
low from the time Brown heard tine
shrek until he came on deck again.

Erin like smoke covers Atlanta

BY JAMES 8. NEvlN.

Recent agitation, of very serious
and very earnest kind, in Atlanta has
resulted in some gratifying reforma-
tons in the matter of convict pun
ishment in Georgia, not only in Fulton
County, but throughout the entire
State.
Whippings are not nearly so nu-
merous in the convict camps as they
were month or two ago-indeed, in
Fulton County they have dropped off
a good so per cent.
in addition to that. the average de-
crease in the number of Whipplngs
elsewhere has dropped 80 13 per cent,
while the number OF counties report
ing no whippings at all has increased
in the same ratio.
These figures are based on com
parative records for January and
February. which may be seen by any
person interested, if said person Will
take the trouble to call upon the
Prison Commission and ask for them.
The Prison Board, composed of con-
scientious and humane men-R. f.
Dawson, f. l.. Rainey and T. f. Pa
terson-evidently is much pleased
with the fine showing made, and it IS
hardly to be doubted that the board
will cooperate with any agency wish
ing to reduce-indeed, entirely to GO
away with-whippings in the convict
camps. -.
The members all may not think 1t
possible to do away with it entirely
although in that they will find the
weight of authority very much against
them. perhaps-but they would like 10
see it done away with. if it is pos
sible. Every one of them says as
much.
The matter of abolishing whipping
in the convict camps undoubtedly Will
be proposed to the Legislature next
summer. Whether that honorable
body vii! agree to abolish this form
Of punishment entirely is problemati-
cal, although it may
Certainly however, the Prison
Board will offer no compact or ag-
gressive opposition to the suggestion,
even if some members of the board
may doubt its wisdom. II the State
saws to the Prison Board that 1t shall
not permit the whipping of convicts
in any event. the ard will govern
itself accordingly.
This is question upon which there
is likely to be much immediate divi-
sion of sentiment in the Legislature.
1t is thought generally, however thai
the lash will have been abolished be
fore the summer adjournment of tine
Legislature - effected.
