Some 80 years ago Mr.. Arnold Doug
las Brown became associated with
Donald Mckay, Chief of the Warm
springs Indians. This was soon after
the close of the Modoc War of 1873.
The whole country was at that time
interested in the success of Donald
Mckay and his Warm Springs Indians
and their war against Captain Jack
and his Modoc warriors.
Arnold Douglas Brown became in
terested with Donald Mckay in giving
3 series of Indian exhibitions, visiting
al the large cities of the United
States. With these Indians there was
an old Indian Medicine Man who had
been taken along by the company to
lock after the health of the tribe in
case of sickness.
This old Medicine Man and Arnold
Douglas Brown became staunch
friends and many valuable secrets of
how 10 make medicines as the Indians
used them, were given Mr.. Brown
Among them was the formula of

In after years Mr.. Arnold Douglas
Brown kept experimenting and grad
ually perfecting system of produc-
ton whereby he brought out this
great Indian Medicine and gave it the
name of Browns Native Herbs in
Liquid Form. A medicine which has
made Mr.. Arnold Douglas Brown ia
nous throughout the country, because
this remedy has proven itself as SIM
pie as Nature itself. 1t brings about

WsonAssaaedh Tolls Fiqht
Asks for Writ to
Stop Her Husband
From Telephoning

A curious and unusual plea was
made by Mrs Amelia, Wise Harris,
wife of commission merchant for
merly well known in Atlanta, Tues
day in a petition for divorce filed
with the Superior Court.
Mrs. Harris asks nothing more or
less than that the legal machinery of
the State be put in motion to prevent
her husband calling her up over the
telephone. She wants an injunction
restraining him.
In support of the unusual request
Mrs. Harris. through her lawyers,
Mcclellan & Mcclellan. recites
rather affecting story of marital trou-
bles. She says she was married to
Harris in January, 1907, at Eureka
Springs. Ark, and that within a few
months after the nuptial ceremonies
Harris was abusing her so that she
was soon a physical wreck
Harris who was a member of the
commission firm of the Harris Emery
Company. now out of business, and
who is at present located in New Or
leans, is accused of having squan-
dered $4,000 of his wife's money.
Threatened Over Phone.
The wife says she has heard that
her husband is about to inherit some
mining stock, and asks the right to
amend her petition to cover that de-
velopment. She declares that she is
in mortal fear of her husband
He calls me up over the phone and
threatens me with physical punish
ment," says the petition in effect,
and l am afraid he will come and

So troubled is she by these tele-
phone calls that she asks for an in
junction. She also wants total d.
vorce and alimony.
