according to the agreement even of
Mr. WHEELER and Mr.. Volstead The
former testified that it would never
be possible to enforce prohibition or
to prepare legislation in which loop
holes are not discernib1e.
And then Congress, for the nrsS
time in many years displaying indie
pendence in the face of the prohibition
masters, refused to vote the organiza-
ton sum large enough to cover it's
expenses up to July /. This necessi-
tated the reduction of the enforcement
officers. and thus gave the big centers
of the country a 40-day holiday.
And to cap the climax, Secretary
Mellon of the department of the treas
ury, says a good word for beer, ana
insists that regulations for its dis
pensation as a medicine be promul-
gated. And doctors, according to the
new regulations which are approved
by Mr.. Mellon, viii not be limited to
100 prescriptions every 80 days, Their
only restriction will be denial of the
right to prescribe for any one man
more than once in 10 days.

though to convey regret. "But what

Dick looked immensely disappointed.
Eve knew the reason of that disappoint-

"T1l come tomorrow evening. if 1 may"
said Dick; and then, before Eve could
stop him, he nodded to her and her es-
cort and very quickly walked away.

that alcohol in abundance be furnish I'd
them for the purpose of preserving
the ingredients of their prescriptions.
A brewer expressed his dislike or
the proposal that beer be manufac-
tured for medicinal purposes. His tes-
timony astounded until it developed
that he had made fortune retailing
a near beer for more than he formerly
retailed the real article. He had an
other source of grievance. He swore
that while he himself obeyed the pro-
hibition statutes to the letter. and hau
waxed fat as result some of his for
mer competitors were openly violating
the law and getting off with it," He
testified that and 6 per cent beer
was being sold openly in Chicago, and
concluded with the advice that all
manufacturers be forced to obey the
law or permitted freely to violate 1t.
He made the point, however. that his
business would surely suffer unless
the sale of real beer was estopped.
PICTURE OF DEATH
The American Drug Manufacturers
association has started a propaganda
all its own. 1t eschews beer but OPP
poses the Tightening of the prohibit
ton law in so far as the shoe pinches
its own foot. 1t addresses dacetious
communication to the press, some eX-
cerpts from which follow:
"a year hence if the family doctor
prescribes a teaspoonful of tincture of
this or that for the cold in your head
and two days later your friends are
requested to attend but omit flowers,
don't haunt the doctor in vengeance.
The proper subject for your ethereal
wrath will be Mr. Volstead and Mr..
Wheeler.
THE bill which is supposed to put
the amber fluid beyond the reach of
those unable TO pay for a prescrip-
ton does much more, according to
claims of pharmaceutical manufac-
turers of tinctures, fluid extracts and
other hard names with which the
druggists compound physicians pre-
scriptions. For the medicinal property
the doctor wants can only be dissolved
out of the medicinal herb or other
crude drug by alcohol.
"The pharmaceutical manufacturers
of the country have no quarrel with
the provisions of the bill that would
ban Der as a medicine, but are greatly
aroused over provision which would
require the alcohol they thus use as
solvent to be indicated at the dis
tillery with some ingredient of the
finished product. If the distillers are
required to medicate the alcohol they
Will be robbed of TINS eXacung control
of their product and as result they
will not be able to answer to the ply
stefan for the fine precision of their
pharmaceuticals.
AS TO WINE
Mr.. Volstead's bill would also for
bid the use of wine to make medicines
palatable There are many medicines
SO nauseous that the stomach could
not retain them long enough for the
patient to derive benefits. There are
also cases of patients so critically
weak that fit of vomiting caused b.
some unpalatable remedy might result
in collapse and DEATH
1t is a grewsome picture that the as
ISOLATION paints. But 1t frankly eX-
presses it's opposition to beer in any
form. Apparently it is case the mer-
its of which are entirely dependent on
the ownership of the bull that is
gored.

JUDGE HOBBS CHARGE
TO GRAND JURY WAS
SPIRITED AND POINTED

Selma. May 24.-(Special.)- Chiro-
tractors of Selma were the target for
a broadside from Judge S. F. Hobbs at
the re-convened session of the Dali
las county circuit court this morn
ing, Judge Hobbs delivered a stirring
charge to the grand jury for the en-
forcement of the statute regulating
the practice of medicine in Alabama
and asked the jury to Investigate all
evidence bearing on infractions of the
law and if the proof warranted, to
return true bills to the court. Judge
Hobbs said the law and the decisions
of the courts were unmistakable as
to who are privileged to treat human
diseases in this state, and took oc-
casion to draw a well marked dis
tinction between practicing medicine
and treating human Affections. Fail
ure to give medicine in the treat
ment of human ailments, he declared,
did not grant immunity to the prac-
titioner as a violator of the law.
Judge Hobbs also called attention to
reported violations of the state game
and fish laws, which he said many
people were prone to treat lightly,
but on whose observance the pleas
ure of hunting or fishing for the next
generation depended. He said he had
heard of strings of fine trout being
brought to Selma which were shot and
not captured with hook as the law
prescribes He declared these prac-
tees were an outrage and ought to
be stopped.
Judge Hobbs opened his charge
with a reference to the conditions re-
ported to exist in south Georgia
which, he declared, were stigma on
the entire south and had already cost
the southern states millions of dol
lars in desirable immigration and dew
elopment.

These children were bitten by a stray

manufacturer of medicine, testifying
that beer has never been known to
cure an ailment has disturbed the
ETHEREAL atmosphere by insisting that
he be permitted to use wine to make
his potions palatable. Likewise, other

their destation for beer, have insisted
