BY HERBERT COREY.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, August 1.-THE
twentieth amendment has come to
pass in these parts. 1t reads some
thing like this:
Thou shalt not put too much hops
in thy homemade brew
Hops, you will understand, makes
the stuff heady and bitter. and is re-
puted to fill it with the raw material
Tor domestic discussions and over
night investment in oil stock. Where
as If you stick to the tested formulas
peace descends upon the home like d
| Eenedlction and the dove sings like
canary bird all day long.
There may be other centers in which
the new fad has taken as complete
possession of the public as here
abouts. but certainly there are none
in which 1T has taken more complete
possession. There was a time when
the central Ohio householder employed
his spare moments in collecting pos
tage stamps, or sticking butterflies
on cards or going afield with a
camera. All those nonsensical ways
of wasting time have been aban-
doned. He has become severely prac-
teal. One knocks upon the door of
the home of an old friend and de-
mands of the wife that the where
amouts of John be revealed.
Callers Received in Cellar.
"Tellum to come right down cell
lar" shouts familiar voice.
And one goes right down cellar, to
find John boiling hops and straining
fragrant liquids and sucking away at
the end of a rubber hose to siphon
the perfected product into bottles.
Once regular, metallic. clanking
sound would have suggested to the
officer of the law that a counterfeit
ing plant was being operated. Now
he knows that John is engaged in
stamping tin tops on bottles. Au

In Jail Awaiting a Hearing on
Charge of Kidnapping Coughlin

PHILADELPHIA. August 13-Au-
gusto Pasquale, the Crank" is in
the Montgomery county Jail while
preparations are being made to give
him preliminary hearing on charges
of KIDNAPPING, blackmail and possibly
murder. The prisoner was taken tC
Norristown late last night.
Although several more clues were
run down today, no trace of Blakeley
Coughlin, the kidnapped boy, was un-
covered. Maj. Lynn G.. Adams, super
intendent of the Pennsylvania sta
ton police, under whose direction
Pasquale was captured when he tried
to collect an additional $4,000 ran
som from the child's father, declared
that he has scant hope of finding the
boy alive. He reached this conclusion
he said, when a twenty four-hou search
of the country around Egg Harbor
n. J., where Pasquale. was caught,
August =. proved fruitless.
The town marshal of Egg Harbor
renewed the search and with a posse
of men sought clues in the swamps
surrounding Germania, small town
about three miles from Egg Harbor.
Nothing was found that would throw
any light on the case.

house of lords, then the case is diff

! Mr.. Carlisle added that the house
OF lords was about to pass measure
the object of which was to destroy
the constitutional liberties of his
countrymen and that he gave way
to righteous indignation. Concluding,
the letter said: THE most serious
affront to the dignity of the historic
house was and is that the descend
ants of those who won at Runnymede
the charter of British liberties should
have proved themselves unworthy of
| their sres."
Mr.. Carlisle is a prominent Belfast
Irishman who now resides in Lon
don. When the lord chancellor last
Monday resumed his seat, after NOV

RETAIL GROCER PRAISED.
Meeting Ideals of Day, Says Head
of Gamers Association.

Retail grocers throughout the
country have been unjustly criticised
and condemned, according to Walter
J. Sears, president of the National
|Canners' Association, in public state
ment just issued.
The retail grocer has been charged
with profiteering." Mr.. Sears said
He has been condemned as an in
efficient and uneconomical distributor
of foods. My observation is that in
most cases the retail grocer is worthy
of the confidence and respect of the
public.
He is meeting intelligently and
progressively the new ideals of the
day. He is making his place of bust
to handle only approved foods and
he seeks to serve the consumer on
the basis of adequate service, reason
ably compensated for"
