OPULENT OPIUM MAKER
FINED SUM OF $4,000

Peoria. ILL.,, Oct. 23-Edward Kraft
was fined $4,000 in the Federal
Court here for having manufactured
opium for smoking purposes.
Kraft was arrested June %, 1914,
when Fedeal officers raided his es-
adjustment at 514 South Adams
street, in the heart of the business
district of Peoria, and secured an
opium manufacturing outfit valued
at upward of $4,000. Officials in
the raid also seized two cans of raw
opium valued at more than $1,000.
Kraft is supposed to be wealthy.
When fined $4,000 to-day he refus-
ed to state his worth, and imme-
diately the Judge sentenced him to
serve out the $4,000 fine in the Nc
Lean County Jail. the Mclean Coun-
ty Jail being a better institution
than the Peoria County Jail.
Kraft will be taken to Blooming
ton tomorrow to begin his SEN
tence.

Mexican affairs. Mr.. Arredondo will
start for Saltillo. Mex, to meet Gen.
Carranza and present to him the let
ters and notes of recognition from
the several governments of Central

Older BUT STRONGER

To be healthy at seventy, prepare at
forty, is sound advice, because in the
strength of middle life we too often forget
that neglected colds, or careless treat
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older, keep your
blood pure and rich and active with the
strength-building and blood-nourishing
properties of SCOTS Emulsion which is a
food. tonic and a medicine to keep your
blood rich, alleviate rheumatism aud
avoid sickness. No alcohol in SCOTS.
