Coffee That Has Made
History
The Old Secret Blend Unchanged
for A Hundred Years.

In the heyday of the Old French
Market, New Orleans, the leaders Of
affairs met there to chat and to dis
cuss the serious topics of the day over
a cup of French Market Coffee.
What tales the old building could
tell-what stories of plot and counter
plot-what secrets remain unrevealed
under its high gabled roof!
And of these none would be more
interesting than that of French Market
Coffee-the Old Secret Blend. But
while the secret is still a secret,
French Market is now used by ma
ton of coffee lovers, instead of being
the privilege of only few as in early
French Market days.
Secret blending of world-famous cof-
fees-secret grinding and roasting
these explain the wonderful goodness
of French Market, found in no other
coffee in America. Many have tried to
initiate it, but have given it up in de-
spair.
Send 1Oc for IL cup sample and
booklet of the interesting Story of Old
French Market. We will also send
names of grocers in your town who
sell French Market Coffee. ID. cans,

GOVT TO PROSECUTE
REV. WRAY when
HE LEAVES ASYLUM

While Federal officials declare |
they believe the Incarceration of Rev.
J. E. Wray, who was recently in
dicted by the grand jury at Jackson
Vile, charged with sending obscene
matter through the mails, in the
State Asylum for the Insane sub
terfuge on the part of his friends to
save him from arrest, they will make
no attempt to force the issue until
the authorities at that institution
are ready to release him, according
to District Attorney Herbert s.
Phillips, who returned last night
from jacksonville.
Mr.. Phillips has written the SUI
perintendent of the State Asylum at
Chattahoochee expressing the views
of the Federal officials and while
urging that the federal government
has no desire to press charges
against an insane person, the State
Asylum authorities certainly do not
desire to become parties to subter-
fuge to old an alleged criminal
/ from justice. Mr.. Phillips has re-
quested that the asylum authorities
notify him Immediately in case Wray
RECEIVERS his mental balance suffi-
GENTLY to be adjudged safe at large.
Mr.. Phillips has also formally noti-
fed State authorities that Wray is
wanted by the United States authori-
ties and he will be held for them
upon his release from Chattahoochee.
Mr.. Phillips declared last night
that he did not doubt that Wray's
mind was affected, but he said he
believed the affectation was that OF
moral degeneration and that he did
mot believe the minister was insane.
I"As long as Wray is confined at
Chattahoochee," Mr.. Phillips said
"our purpose is being served just as
though he were serving time in the
federal penitentiary. and we viii
make no attempt to serve capias
on him until he is to be released
from the asylum Tampa Tribune
