REGULATIONS ARE MADE TO
 GOVERN SALES OF "JAKEYr

On and after February 14, 1921, stom- aeh aches will not be lionored at drug stores with a bottle of Jamaica ginger. Permits to purchase Jamaica ginger is sued by Prohibition Director Julius c. Stremlau will only be honored- All this is the result O. a ruling this week by William M Williams, commissioner of internal revenue.
 Just why Commissioner Williams pick ed St. Valentines day to put Jamaica on the permit is not clear.
 The trouble with Jamaica ginger was not so much with Jamaica ginger itself. As a rule it stayed in it's place on the apotheca1y's shelves looking like cylin- der oil but it was harmless enough and, so they say, present help in time of trouble. The trouble was, of course, that people who had pains in the equatorial regions seemed to get worse by using Jamaica ginger, so that the police would keep finding these fellows doubled up in gutters and under kitchen sinks, suffer- ing worse than ever. Then some others began pouring alcohol. wood alcohol or plain bilge water into ther Jamaica gin- gerA and even this stuff, called in gro- tesqlIe aff aetion "5akty'' never seemed tn get a lywhere as st stomach ache leceiver. In fact eases of ind. i.restion were rushed straight to the police station or brought calls for the coroner.
 That is how bad things were getting and he internal revenue department, re- alizing that a soda mint is better fo- one's internal revenue than pint of Ja- rr,aica ginger or "Jakey," has made MT Stremlau the arbiter of stomach acnes in these parts Whether you call it Ja- maica ginger tincture of ginger or ex- tract of ginger. MT. Stremlau must con sent to your purcaase of it.

FLOOD OF FOOD DRAFTS
 POURING TOWARDS EUROPE

IankS Tn Boston report heavy sales of food drafts issued by the American relief administration and payable in food to stated persons in Europe Wide publicity given the suffering in eastern and central European countries has brought prompt response from foreign Americans who nave relatives in the hunger zone and who are attempting to relieve famine distress by rushing orders for food for the afiiict- ed countries in time for Christmas
 Out of 1S5,479 American relief admin istration food drafts sold up to date, IS per cent. have called fof kosher pack ages of food and S2 per cent. for the packages containing fats in the form of lard, bacon and other meat products not sanctioned by the strict Mosaic code
 The value of the drafts sold to date, to- tailed $4'262,SS0. The drafts are issued in S1O and $50 denominations and are on sale at 459S banks. The food draft plan was originated by Herbert Hoover as means of enabling persons who have needy friends or relatives in central and eastern European countries to send them a maximum amount of staple food at minimum cost. That the distribution has been wide is indicated by the fact that S6 per cent. of the drafts sent have been in the smaller denominations and only IA per cent of the total have been for the $50 ft cd packages.
 In order to avoid the necessity of ;1iul- tiduinous expensive small shipments the food which the drafts call for has been shipped and placed in storage in the American relief administration ware houses in the principal cities abroad where stocks are maintained at all times sufficient to more than cover any antici- pated sale of drafts. The person pur- chasing the draft at the bank designates the person to whom it is to be sent The draft is delivered to the purchaser. who mails i\to the designated person abroad and theNlatter upon receiving the draft presents it to the nearest warehouse, where he receives the standard food pack age that the draft calls for
 As the enterprise is not a commercial one, any credit balances that may accrue from the sale of the food drafts are turn ed over to the American relief adninis- tration European crildren's fund to aid it's child-feeding program in the countries to which the drafts are sent Up to Aug. 1 the balance turned over for this purpose amounted to upwards of s605 ,000
