HIGH COURT HAS DEFINED
BOOTLEGGER AND TIGER

Atlanta, Sept. do you know
the difference between a bootlegger
and blind tiger, or in your ignor-
ance did you imagine they we're
the same thing?
Well, the supreme court has de-
termined and defined the difference
in decision handed down.
A bootlegger is "a person who sells
Intoxicating liquors on the sly, not
from any particular business loca-
ton, but carrying his ware in his
pockets or somewhere else about his
person.
But when person establishes
himself in definite place of business
where he may pretend to be selling
other things but here he really sells
liquor unlawfully then he is blind
tiger"

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root 10
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one Of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as.
tonishing statement that one reason why
30 many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is 30
common to the American people, and the
lcrge majority of those whose applica.
tons are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. Il is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles Of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr..
Kilmer 4 Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for .
sample bottle. When writing be sure and

MAY RevoIutionize Lacemaking.

Consul Hitch, at Nottingham, Eng
land, reports an invention by resi-
dent of that city which, 1t is claimed.
will revolutionize the present method
of making imitation laces. The in
ventor states that by means of his
invention, which is an attachment
to an ordinary Levers lace machine,
he can produce the lace the entire
width of the machine. either In
breadths from one inch upward or the
full width of the machine for allover
nets. Thus a machine 100 inches wide
could be made to produce 100 breadths
of one inch, or fifty Of two-inch and
so on. Two sets of jacquards are used,
one operating the warp threads and
the other bobbin threads.

Bill - Scandal in Coal

By EDWARD w. PIcKARD.

President-elect Harding's confer
ences at Marion with the best minds"
though by no means ended, seem al
ready to have resulted in the crystal
lizing of certain of his policies into
definite form. OF course the two that
arouse the greatest public interest are
those relating to foreign affairs and
the League of Nations, and to the plan
for reorganizng the nations business
and establishing it. on a more econom-
ic basis.
In discussing an association OF ma
lions, there is no evidence that Mr..
Harding has converted to his own
views such irreconcilables as Senator's
Borah and Reed, or even Mr.. Bryan,
whose invitation to Marion aroused
the ribald laughter of the paragraph
ers. But Mr.. Harding seems to have
brought his theories into form lit for
presentation to the world. According
to what is said to be authoritative IN
formation, he believes the first APP
preach to the formation of his "asso-
citation of nations" should be to OBJ
tain the assent of the five leading ma
lions, the United States, Great Britain,
France, Italy and Japan, his theory
being that, once these nations have
Joined, the other nations will fall in
line. The basis of this association is
to be a world court to deal with justi-
ciable questions.
Mr.. Harding holds that no associa-
ton of nations can succeed without
the Endorsement of the leaders of pub
lie thought, in America and elsewhere,
and that these leaders must reach
agreement in the essentials, leaving
details to be settled later; that all
governing features must be eliminated
from the association. each nation re-
naming free to make its own de-
cisions; that the agreement must be
specific enough to prevent the possi-
bility of an offensive and defensive
military alliance of the five great
powers, and the association of ma
tons itself must place all nations on
an equal footing in the presentation
of their views on matters of world
policy.
