GOOD GROCER
GOOD MEDICINE
An East Nashville Grocer Says He
Has Used Black Draught for
Years, Whenever Troubled
With Torpid Liver.

East Nashville, Tenn.-"You ask me
about Black-Draught. 1t is without
doubt the best liver medicine made,
and / don't believe I could get along
without it," declared Mr.. w. N.
Parsons, recently.
Mr.. Parsons, who is a prominent
grocer at 243 North First street, says
further: ST take it (Black-Draught)
for sour stomach, headache, bad liver,
indigestion, and all other troubles that
are the result of a torpid liver. /
have known and used 1t for years, and
can and do highly recommend it to
every one. I won't go to bed without
it in the house. 1t will do all it claims
to do. can't say enough for it."
Thedford's Black-Draught. which
has been in successful use for more
than 20 years, is medicine especially
adapted to the treatment of many
liver troubles. 1t has proved helpful
to thousands and thousands of per-
sons suffering from stomach and liver
complaints, and should be helpful to
you.
Black-Draught is easy to take and
has not the bad after-effects, so COM
mon with many mineral drugs.
Most good druggists sell it.-Adv.

So much is said about the duties OF
children that their rights are over
looked. Their duties are often strict
ly enforced upon them but their rights
frequently ignored. This is partly on
account OF ignorance, but chiefly be-
cause 0f a lack of thought. Most par
cnts desire the highest good Of their
children, and are willing TO make any
reasonable sacrifice for them, but pay
little attention to their rights. II they
recognize them as their rights at all.
No one would deny to children their
right to such support and education as
their parents are able TO give them
But beyond this very general admis-
sion not many recognize any definite
obligation.

Excepting only Christmas no birth

America as February 90 Such men as
George Washington, like new stars,
appear only once in a century. At al
time when we most needed a leader
Washington appeared like a pole-star
in o cleartsky to direct our statesmen.
His administration will ever hold a
high place in the political region. Like
the milky way, it will ever whiten its
portion of the political hemisphere.
They who are the last to inhabit the
globe will see thru the telescope of
history the virtues of George Washing
ton. the Father of his Country" 1t
is an old but true saying that he was
first in war first in peace and first in
the hearts of his countrymen." While
his military fame eScites the wonder
OF mankind, il is his civil magistracy
that leaves an example for the instruc-
ton of mankind. Great generals have
arisen in every age of the world. In
times OF war they rise by the force OF
the whirlwind. high enough to ride in
il and direct the storm. Like meteors
they shove off with a .splendor on tht
black war clouds. Heroes multiply IL
every long war and their ranks have
so thickened that they are becoming
as undistinguished as the brave mel

revere his memory. His remains were
deposited in family vault on his owl

mothers to instill into the lives ant

U. S. PROBE FOR DEALERS
MANIPULATING COTTON

Inyestiga ration OF an attempt to de-

dered by Attorney General Palmer
last night
The Department OF Justice issued
the following statement:

structed United States District Attor-
ney Hooper Alexander. at Atlanta,

partment OF Justice in Washington
all of the facts developed in a case
brought by the commissioner OF ag-
riculture of Georgia. the director Of
the state bureau OF markets. and the
Georgia representative of the Farm
ers' Union against five firms dealing
in cotton.
"The complaint against tho cotton
dealers charges that they have com
bined arbitrarily to reduce the price
of cotton In violation of the anti
trust laws. II the facts indicate n
violation OF the Sherman antitrust
act, action will be taken by the Gov

VATICAN WILL NOT

ROME, April 4.-The Vatican has
adopted a policy of watchful wait
ing toward Bolshevism and will
make no move toward establishing
relations with Russia, until the sit.
uation Is cleared by some decisive
event. It was declared today by
Monsignor Corrette, whose position In
the papal court corresponds to that
Of under-foreign secretary.
"It Is necessary for the Vatican
to keep aloof from Russian affairs
explained Monsignor Corrette. Con-
fiicting reports have come out of tina:
country as to, conditions prevalent
there. Some described Boishevism as
tainted with barbarism. Others
characterized IT as q successful SO
cial experiment. h
"Relationss between the Vatican and
Russia will be of spiritual nature
only until we can visualize more
clearly what is going to happen. The
BoIshevists are said to have re-
nounced all religion. The Holy See,
therefore, could not approve even
semi-official commercial relations
with Russia as some of the allied
governments now propose. Even IL
the Vatican desired to communicate
with Russia we could not hold inter
course with the 'Boishevik regime d.
rect. 1t would be necessary to COM

kovsky- who formerly held the post
