Lexington, and Inspector Elijah
Hogge, Of Morehead, were in Be
rea Wednesday calling on those
physicians who prescribe whisky

Chief Inspector Porter said if all

used the privilege as had the
physicians of Berea, the depart

THAT source.
"You doctors are all right" said

records were examined by us has

This OFFICER TOOK
HIS ''PR0OF" ALONG

Edmonton, Alta, April 9-Ser-
geant Hubert Thorne, of the Roy
Ial Northwest Mounted uolice,
learned from lawyers that with
out dead man somewhere in the
case it is impossible to prove muir
der. The corpus deficit is the cor
nerstone of his professional
ethics.
Thorne is stationed at Fort
Simpson on the Mackenzie river,
"a fur post of the Hudson Bay
Company. When word reached
him that a murder had been COM
mitted at Fort Providence, he
took a few trusty men and hur-
ried to the scene by dog sled. An
Indian hunter had killed another
native and fled across the Sahara
of Wind-bloWn snow to hiding
place in the wilderness. Thorne
tracked him to his cabin and ar
rested him.
But the arrest did not satisfy
ThOrne. He required the corpus
deficit. The murdered man had
BEEN bNrieL three weeks and deep
snow had drifted over his grave.
But Thorne located the spot and
unearthed the body. Binding the
coffin on his dog sled, he cracked
his whip over his ,malumutes and
headed south for the nearest JUS
tees court at Fort Smith, 400
miles away on the Slave river.
For four days they were storm
bound, and huddled for shelter be-
hind the coffin. After two weeks
battle with storm and cold, weak
and exhausted, they staggered
into Fort Smith.
Thorne's man bore the rude cas-
ket into the court room where,
during the preliminary hearing,
it occupied conspicuous position
on the floor. The Indian is now
in jail at Edmonton awaiting his
trial.

The Hardest Job I'm Every Business

Cane Syrups, coffees and all the other cpl
Curean delights for which the South is famed
would find bigger demand if backed by ade-
quate advertising And such demand would
automatically fix profitable price.
Marketing our products as we'll as making
them would furnish work for the hands and
brains of our returning sons provide room
for the talleSt ambition and stop the emigra-
ton to the North and West of the talented
and ambitious.
There was time when we could sell the
merchant and let him push the goods. But to-
day the hardware, grocery and. drug stores
will carry from 900 to &c, 900 different items.
Pushing any one is impossible.
Wise manufacturers are marking their goods
so that they can be recognized = telling the
public about their merits and inducing the
folks to pull them off of the shelves. And in
this respect, at least, an ounce OF pull IS
worth pound of 'puSh."
The advertising agencies of the South have
had years of experience in advertising and
marketing many commodities. They know
the methods that have proved successful, be-
cause their whole time is engroSSed with the
problems of selling.
Their contact with leading manufacturers in
many lines has made them intimate with
various methods of winning trade methods
of securing distribution = fighting substitu-
ton 1t is their business to know how buSi-
ness is being built.
Their services cost nothing. They are paid
commission by the publishers to make adver-
Using profitable to the manufacturer. 1t will
be revelation to many business men to know
the varied forms of assistance these agencies
can der-information on markets, con-
tainers, trademark law, distribution methods,
dealer cooperation, service in preparing
booklets, copy-writing and real information
on the value Of different classes Of advertising
media

I'm nearly every line production has been
increased on account Of the war. The
4 hardest Job ahead is to find a market IN
peace times for what those factories turn out.
Money is made-not in manufacturng-bu but
In selling Yet selling seldom receives the
attention it deserves.
The number of factories manufacturer can
50 build-the profit he can earn-are limited by
the amount of merchandise for which he can
find profitable market.
If demand can be kept ahead of production,
profitable market is sure And the one.way to
keep demand ahead of productionisb by adver-
Using teaching the public to use more of
your goods
In the past the South has bent her energies on
manufacturing The marketing of her prod
ucts were largely left to others who took the
raw materials and staples and converted
them into specialties, trade-marked, adver-
tised and sold them And, invariably, it is the
selling specialties that pays the wide margin
of profit and the selling of staples that pays
the slim.
Greater profits. keeping conditions in our
hands instead of on them-depend upon our
marketing our goods as we'll as upon our max
ing them.
The South's cotton goods should be known by
brand-names in Detroit just as we know and
buy the various makes of automobiles pro-
duced by the citizens Of that enterpriSing
Michigan city.
Lumber, of which the South is the Nations
greatest possessor, will be needed for recon-
struction and the merits of our various woods
should be convincingly told by advertising.
The South is the greatest fat-produclng sec
ton of America. In the vegetable oils from
her cotton-seed, peanuts and soy beans she
produces more fat than all the dairy cows Of
America-more fat than all the hogs Slaught-
sered in a year. More Southern-made and
marketed compound lards and salad oils
would bring additional millions into Dixie.

NEWS NOTES.
Prenatal Work For eeoruia,

DR.. John Osborn Polak, in an ad
dress before the clinical section OF
the American College of Surgeons, re
Gently quoted the following facts:
$50 of all the deaths occurring il
women from Is to Al years are due
to conditions connected with chile
bearing. $50 of all blindnes il
the United States is due to infection
of the child at the time of birth. One
woman out of $50 dies in childbirth
In Georgia as many as Is to Is
deaths caused by puerpural septicemia
are reported each month. These facts
are appalling. Proper prenatal care be
fore birth and proper care at time OF
the birth of the child would eliminate
these conditions. In prenatal clinic
conducted by DR.. Polak and his asso
ciates at the Long Island College Hos
pital the percentage of still births
were reduced from 11%o to 90, AND
the maternal deaths from l in $50 tC
l in 1850. Facts, like these prove
the value to the community of pre-
natal work and show the absolute ne
cessity of such work for Georgia. As
yet, very little has been done, but
plans are under way to supply the
doctors and midwives with the proper
prophylactic medication against opthal
mia moratorium (babies' sore eyes,
this medication to be obtained either
free or at a minimum cost. Also under
advisement are a series Of lessons to
midwives and methods for organizing

at the beginning, the fight against
these conditions will be successful
