GIEHLs FREED
After a Trial Lasting Almost Six
HOurs-Decislye Battle Won BY
Young Chiropract0r.

DR.. Roy Giehls, local chiropractor,
who was recently arrested for prac-
ticing medicine without proper IL
cense In the State of Kentucky, was
tried yesterday afternoon before
Jury in Squire Fred W. Bauers Court
and after a trial lasting about six
hours was acquitted by the jury. The
case attracted great number of peo-
pie interested In Its outcome.
The trial of DR.. Giehls was set for
Wednesday afternoon but owing to
the fact that the chief witness for the
defense was not present the trial was
postponed until yesterday morning. At
10 o'clock the trial began. Some lit
tie time was spent in securing a jury
for the case.
The first witness for the prosecu-
tion was Deputy County Clerk Arthur
Wood, who produced the medical rec
ord of the county and swore that the
defendant had not secured license
for practicing medicine in this state.
Or. w. H. Taulbee was then placed
on the witness stand. He testified that
DR.. Giehls had opened offices In the
First-Standard Bank building and
that he was advertising in the local
papers. He was examined on the ques-
ton of the relation Of osteopathy and
chiropractic and stated that his un-
derstanding of the matter was that
they were the same.
DR.. c. w. McClanahan was then
called to the witness stand. He gave
In substance the same as DR.. Taul.
bees testimony and then gave tele.
phone conversation he had overheard
while in his office, the conversation
was between DR.. Giehls and a pa
tient. The conversation had no direct
bearing on the case.
Mr.. O'Donnell, attorney for the de-
fense. then made a motion to dismiss
the case as he thought the Common
wealth had failed to prove cast
against his client for practicing medi
cine without a license. This motor
was overruled by the court and tht
trial was resumed.
DR.. George P. Lambert, a chiroprac
tor from Flemlngsburg was the onl!
witness used by the defendant. HI
said that he had been practcing il
this state for over year and had no
secured license to do so. He was
questioned to some length as TO the
methods used by chiropractors ant
he gave all of the answers very
quickly and clearly.
The attorneys then made their argu
ments before the jury. The prosecu
tton contended that medicine included
the practice of any treatment of the
human body for ailments. The defense
argued that DR.. Giehls was not prac.
ticing medicine, insofar that he die
not give drugs of any kinds. Botl
lawyers made brilliant speeches.
The jury composed of the Messrs

great a convenience that an appeal
was made for one oil larger size The
No. s envelope is Is by 8 1-2 inches,
high cut, and will be furnished either
plain or with return card printed in
the corner. The plain envelopes will
cost s52.28 per thousand and may be
obtained in any quantity; the, printed
envelopes will. cost s$52.72 per thou
sand and will be supplied only In lots
of 500 or multiples thereof.
The movement leading to the is.
suance OF the new scent envelope
was started by the foreign-trade de-
partment of the Cleveland Chamber
of Commerce, the cooperating office
OF tue bureau u II OlCiSu anu DOAACSIiO
Commerce in that city. The compli-
ance OF the Post Office Department
with its request is but another step
in the campaign to eliminate the short.
paid-postage nuisance. Many plans
to overcome this evil have been put
forward from time to time, ranging
from separate boxes for foreign mail
TO the use of distinctive styles and
colors Of stationery, all designed to fix
the attention Of the clerk having the
stamping Of the mail under his charge.
The use OF an envelope already stamp
ed with the proper postage has proved
a most effective check against the
sending Of letters to foreign countries
short paid.
As stated, the new envelope will be
made Of amber-colored paper, to match
the No. 3 and No. five-cent envelope
already issued. All three may be obtain.
ed in pure white If desired, but the
use Of distinctive color for foreign
mail has received the Endorsement
OF some of Americas most important
manufacturing and exporting interests.
and the chief call will probably be for
the colored envelope. r..
