that she was innocent He told himself
and his wife this, although he had no
proofs to substantiate his statements.
And the fact that his inner conscious

Moreover. some OF the sulphur is ok

Alabama is one of the states that were made dry CD by legislature and not by vote of the people. The following from the Cincinnati Enauir- CT illustrates the result of such pro- cedure:
 With the advent of prohibition q feeling of depression has seized Mo- bile Ala, according to former State Senator Alfred NJ. Cohen, who re- turned yesterday from a ten day vs- it tc the city, where he inspected the plant of the Bay Popular Lumber Company, manufacturers of cigar box lumber of which he is president.
 Since my last visit there year ago there is q remarkable change said Mr. Cohen. Ut was wet then, but now, with the state dry, nearly 10 storerooms are empty, which for merly were occupied by restaurants anu NtitS lltSt ot1uPN places on the big street. Ii pre- gents a spec>acle not at all heart ening. That is what prohibition has done to Mobile.
 Opposite the Battle house, and the leadinAstreet, half dozen stores are vacant They contained restaurants where liquor was sold and saloons There is not demand for other busi- ress to take their places.
 ordinarily you find everyone en- .husiastic and busy, but now there is ] feeling of depression. No, l did aot see any liquor being sold, but 1 was told l would have no difficulty n getting liquor. It is sold on the sly in teacup, l was informed. Mo- pile has lost all the money formerly fic.
 "The public finances are in q bad shape. There is talk of paying the salaries of teachers and other officials n scrip. There is no community that las finer class of people than Mo- pile, and they are not in favor of umptory legislation. Alabama was made dry, l was told, bs hand- ,icked legislature "-Advt.
