DEFENDING FATHER
Ashman Gets Sentence for Wound
ing Ten-Year-Old Lad.

Washington has a youngster who
should be good example for pacifi.ts
and other Weakened specimens. He
is lO-year-old Max Tender, son of
MOTIFS Tender, a tailor of 9O6 Il
street northwest.
On the fourth Of last August. the
third anniversary of the great war.
the elder Tender was engaged in an
argument with George Moody, a negro
ASH man, about what he should or
should not haul away to the dump.
II seemedsthat the tailor had been
having trouble getting his ashes or
trash hauled away and was inquiring
OF the colorcd man why he did NOT
collect such things on his regular
trips.
NOT being given to many words
Moody struck the father on the law
ana backed back in the alley. He
drew his knife and was about to stab
the tailor when the son ran up with
a board and hit Moody over the head,
Enraged, Moody turned on the boy
and gashed his arm with the knife.
A crowd soon collected and 1t was
with difficulty that the colored mau
was put under arrest.
In the meantime a sister Of young
Max, Miss Lillian Tender, was rough
ly handled by Moody when she at
tempted to demonstrate with him for
striking her father.
In court yesterday morning before
Judge Pugh Moody pleaded that the
cutting of young Tender was an ac-
cident and that the rest of the fight
came about by him being on the de-
fensive. He could not substantiate
his statement and was sentenced to
sixty days at occoquan.

WHEN YOU WAKE

Says fnside-bathing makes any
one look and feel clean,

Wash yourself on the inside be-
fore breakfast like you do on the
outside. This Is vastly more i'm
portant because the skin pores do
not absorb impurities into the blood,
causing illness, while the bowel
pores do.
For every ounce of food and drink
taken into the stomach. nearly an
ounce of waste material must be
carried out of the body. If this
waste material is not eliminated day
by day it quickly ferments and gen.
crates poisons. gases and toxins
which are absorbed or sucked into
the blood stream, through the lymph
ducts which should suck only nour-
ishment to sustain the body.
A splendid health measure is to
drink, before breakfast each day, a
glass OF real hot water with a tea

these poisons, gases and toxins from
the stomach, liver, kidneys and
