Feeling Bad---

What's the matter?" "Oh, don't
know. Just feel bad. Not what you
would call sick, only stupid, sleepy and
sluggish. Don't feel like doing any
thing" These conditions are truly
nuisances, and it is false notion to
think that you are sick every time you
feel bad. For health is a queer crea-
ture; it seldom remains in a perfect
condition, nurse or abuse it as you
choose, it always acts according to its
own laws. These feeling bad conditions
are often due to changes of the season
Of the year, like spring, when the sap
is going up and the feeling bad is going
down. They are due largely to the de-
posits Of invisible little crystals of Uric
Acid in the blood and kidneys. These
little crystals are at times very irritat-
ing, and unless removed are going to
make you sluggish and feel bad all over.
Get rid Of them at once by flushing
them out with suitable remedies, not the
kind that hurts you but hurts them, and
the best remedy I know Of for these
especial conditions is

ALL LOOK ALIKE TO
PROHIBITION DIRECTOR
Persons Selling Any Drink With
More Than | II Per Cent of
Alcohol Violate the Law.

Referring To the sale of hard cider
and Intoxicating home brew Federal
Prohibition Director " I. Boycs today
ISSUED the following statement.
MANY complaints have come to my
notice OF late Of persons getting drunk on
hard cider IN the rural sections Of the State
want il thoroughly understood that the
sale OF cder containing more than one
half of one per cent of alcohol ls as much
a violation of the prohibition laws as the
sale Of whisky.
This notice is final, aud no further
warning will be ISSUED Anyone who
sells cider OF wines Of any kind containirg
more than one-half Of ore per cent Of
alcohol in the future will be prosecuted TO
the full extent Of the law.
MUSHROOM BooTIEdGERs
Basing his prediction on the thousands
OF idle men, the following statement by
one of the prohibition officers was made
public today. Il am of the opinion that
within a period of 80 days this city and
every other section of Delaware will be
overrun with bootIegRers and whisky
smuggers and II may be possible to
increase our present force Of agents to
several times its regular size As hundreds
Of men are ont Of work, with no source Of
income. many may take a chance At the
get rich quick scheme Because Of this
We will have our hands full
When asked concerning the reported
operation Of illicit stills in this city, the
agent replied. Yes, there are few stills
being operated in this city but though
each one IS we'll covered, We expect To close
down on them within the next few DAYS
1t was intimated that whisky is being
smuggled through outer sections of the
city enroute from Baltimore to New
Jersey towns and in the vicinity of Ken
nett Square and West Chester an extra
force Of Federal agents IS patrolling the
highways
Prohibition Director Boyce himself a
staunch Democrat, stated that with the
incoming administration will not lessen
activity "An article in one ni the Phlla-
delphia papers 10 the effect that my
interest in the prohibition work would
cease. is false, he said The change in
administration should no reason for
me to fall down on thc b., and you may
rest assured that | will c7ntinue to be on
the alert both day and nigh I ]"
