Judge McIver Tells Jury Fore
man Why He Gets a Dollar.

The jury in the case of David
Smith against the Columbia Street
Railway brought in a verdict yester-
day for the defendant. Smith alleged
that his automobile stalled on a troll
ley line and car came along and
caused considerable damage in the
collision. The company claimed that
the road was blocked for traffic and
the motor car was on forbidden ter
ritory.
Judge McIver asked the foreman
of the jury if he understood the Gus
tom OF the winning side handing the
foreman 81. The foreman of the jury
said he did not know. The court then
explained that the custom was hand
ed down by England, and i. years
gone by it was the custom of the
times for the winning side to treat
the jury. The Americans changed the
treat to gift of 81 which at that
time was considered equivalent to IL
drinks. Times have changed since
then and the jurors wonder how they
could get IL treats.-Greenville Pied
mont.

HEALTH AND HAPPINESS
GO HAND IN HAND
Vigorous, Red-Blooded Men
and Women Get Most OF
Lies Joys and Benefits
RED BLOOD IS THE SOURCE OF
HEALTH
Pepto-Mangan Creates Rich' Ked
Blood-Builds Up the Body
Benefits are Real

Nature never intended that any
man or woman should be made un-
happy with thin, worn-out, sluggish
bodies.
Why. then, do men and women
with poor, thin blood (anemia) ac-
cept this condition, thinking that it
is natural that they should remain
this way? How unhappy such people
make themselves and those around
them! And it is so unnecessary, Tor
unless you suffer from some deep
seated ailment, you can soon remedy
any form of poor health caused by
thin, impoverished blood.
Pepto-Mangan is prepared just for
such people. Pepto-Mangan contains
the very elements that impart rich
ness to the blood and increase the
supply of the tiny red-blood cells that
good healthy blood must contain.
Pepto-Mangan is put up in both
LIQUID and tablet form. Both forms
are exactly alike in medicinal quail
ties. When you order Pepto-Mangan
be sure to ask the druggist fol
"Gude's." And look for the name
"Gude's" on the package. If "Gude's'
is not there, it is not Pepto-Mangan

Expect a Definite Military Pol
icy in Short Time.

Washington, Apl. 9.-Ihe Senate
cleared the way today for considera-
tion Of exchange proposing the es-
tablishment of definite 4iilitay pol
icy. Debate on the army reorganiza-
tion bill framed by the Senate mill
tary committee is to begin Monday
and its passage is predicted by SEN
ate leaders.
The bill differs radically from the
House measure passed on March 49,,
in that it provides for compulsory
military training, consolidation of
the national guard regular army, and
reserves, composed of trained men
into one citizens army and also for
a general staff eligibility system SIM
liar to that in the French army. The
House bill left the compulsory mill
tary training issue for separate leg
islation, and retained the general
feature of the present army organi-
zation, with general features of the
present army organization with pro-
vision for a. regular establishment of
100000 enlisted men and 1900
officers, as compared with 100000
and $4,000 respectively in the Senate
bill.

The robins have come, the poets
are beginni-.g to sing of spring land
health officers are planning for a
wholesale spring cleaning.
There is no better time than the
first week of moderate weather to
go on a hunt for piles of filth, sta
BILE manure, decaying garbage and
vegetables which are breeding places
for flies, rats, reaches and vermin.
One small pile of stable manure
will breed enough flies during the
first months of spring to harass and
menace the health of whole neigh
.borhood. 1t will give the little pests
such start that it will take long
war to exterminate them during the
summer months by swatting, trap
ping and screening.
So it will be easily seen that the
time to clean up is before the disease
carrying insects get a start. All &C;
,cumulations of filth should be gather
ed up and removed. Where it is not
practicable to remove piles of ma
nure frequently, they should be COW
cred so that flies can not get in to
deposit their eggs, or the fly that is
hatched can not pet out.
Flies do not travel far, seldom not
more than mile, unless carried by
the wind, so that any community that
cleans up need have little fear of the
flies from some other community.
But even if they travelled long dis
tances they would not select clean
community, where there are no breed
ing places and but little food to eat.
Just at this time, in addition to
the cleaning up of breeding places,
:swatting, trapping and screening
may be said to be of real value,
because each fly may mean countless
thousands later, unless he is exter-
minated. Now is the time to swat
and to clean up and few days, or
hours of dilligent work at this period
of the year may save weeks of trap
ping and swatting later in the season.
as well as safeguarding the health OF
the community in which you live.

Germans Warned By French
Terms Must Be Obeyed.

Paris, April 3.-After warning the
German charge d'affaires in a note
that the French government would
admit of no derogation of the treaty
of Versailles, Premier Millerand con-
ferred with Marshal Foch this even
ing. Mashal Foch then had a confer
ence with the minister of war, Andre
Lefevre, who later was received by
the premier.
Paris, April 3.-In statement to
Havas representative this evening,
Premier Millerand said:
eve are confronted with a sys-
tematic violation of article 43 of the
treaty. Bad faith in the explanations
offered by the German government
for its alleged mistake is evidence by
the rapidity of the advance of the
troops, despite our Introduction. The
necessity of repressing the trouble in
the Ruhr district does not justify the
German initiative. The acts of dis
order, in fact, were localized, already
the conflict is approaching extinction
by peaceful means.
Intervention by the regular forces
may lead to the worst consequences" I"
M. Millerand, as president of the
council, naturally refused to state
specifically what measures the
French government contemplated to
counteract the German proceedings,
but said:
81 have made it a point to ask ad-
vice of Marshal Foch and at the same
time have informed and consulted
with the allies"
It is believed that France will de-
mand as a guarantee the occupation
by the allies of Frankfort, Darn
stadt and Hanau.

In these times of national
stress the really patriotic citizen
questions how he may best pro-
tect and defend his country. To
this end he examines the deeds
of the political parties, and Sc
lects from them the one he feels
will work to the best interests of
his beloved country. Such man
feels not the slightest hesitation
in abandoning a party with which
he has been affiliated for years
when it appears to him the love
he bears his country demands
the sacrifice. There are thou
sands of such men in this coun.
try today, briming with love for
their country, and determined to
work for its best interests. Such
men are real, true Americans,
the kind that began to fight at
Lexington and have fought for
their country on many a battle
field.

everywhere. and a tacit deter
mination to break these laws if
it can be done.
The News does not believe in
this sort of policy. A bad law
should be observed just as strict
ly as a good Une. and the party
who deliberately breaks a bad
law is merely breeding up more
disregard of lar, and encourag-
ing others to break other laws,
good or bad, in turn.
We hope there will be a cessa-
ton of this carnival of disorder
before it results in fifteen or
twenty murders in the section.
1t is very annoying to people who
are disposed to the quiet life,
and the participants can get just
as much enjoyment out of life in

TENDANCY TOWARDS DISORDER.

The News regrets very mucE
to9make the statement but there
is an unfortunate tendency to-
wards law breaking and disor'
derly conduct in this county.
This tendancy is not confined to
Marion alone. but we note from
exchanges exists in other coun-
ties. Moreover, our correspond
ents recite many instances of dis
order, and we have no doubt ma
nv cases of crime and disorder
are concealed from the public
gaze.
History shows that a wave OF
crime always follows a war, and
than an army camp conduces to
the ruin of youth. This may be
or may not be true. the News
will not attempt to declare on
that point, but the fact remains
that the wine Of France has rails
ed cain with the moral stamina
of a number of our American
youth, and aided BY the devilish
art of the moonshiner, it is caus-
ing lots of trouble in American
homes. We expect there are
some American mothers today
who wish rather their sons had
filled a grave in France than re-
turned in the moral condition they
are now in as regards resisting
intoxicants,
In Marion reports come to US
right along that bootlegging and
kitchen whiskey making is ram
pant, and judging from the
noise on the public roads and at
public places after night there
must be some reason for the up
roar. Sane people do not yell
and curse, congregate in crowds
and blackguard, destroy public
property, or make might carni-
val of disorder with screaming
women, yelling men. and volley-
ing pistol shots, unless there is |
some propelling force other than |
the intellect.
And, unless we miss our guess.
minors are being freely supplied
with whiskey, thus bringing up
another gang to perpetuate the
mischief, as soon as the pioneers
either slaughter one another or
get possessed of the idea that
they are on the wrong track and
quit their meanness.
A man in upper Marion told us
recently that there was more
bootlegging in his section than
ever before. We know for our
selves that bedlam has been get
ting steadily worse here, and that
a better name for the beautiful
Blowing Spring Park would be

Gently a gentleman declared
booze is eve rywhere in the coun-
ty, and from our observation not
80 long ago even the county seat
is not immune. Last week a
drunken cripple gave disgrace
full exhibition on the Richard
City pike. And so the saturna-
liza goes on.
Another reason for this disor-
der, outside of the reaction from
war is the hostility to the law.
The people are burdened with
avs and regulations, to such an
extent that it is difficult to find
,ut exactly what they are and to
pay exactly what is demanded in
'ees and taxes. Hence there is
hostility to the legislation made
