THE BEER BILL
Ashurst Advises Force in
Repelling Search of
Homes
PAID REFORMERS"
ARE ASSAILED

WASHINGTON. Aug. 10. With
reports from every section OF the
country indicating an unprecedented
flow Of liquor into the United States.
"wets" and "drys" renewed their
struggle in Congress yesterday, with
result that beer legislation has been
blocked temporarily and perhaps
until the fall.
The authorities were informed
OF a sensational raid az Cleve-
land, Ohio. in which police seized
the handsome yacht Venice and 95
cases Of liquor. The lifting Of the
ban against liquor in transit has
brought a flood OF alcohol across the
border, apparently consigned for
foreign points
The authorities OF Pennsylvania,
Maryland and Delaware report in
oreasing efforts to land liquor from
the sea and are in a fever Of activity
TO check the inflow.
The Stanley amendment to the
anti-beer bill-designed to safeguard
through heavy penalties a mans
home and property from Illegal
search for liquor-was regarded to-
night as the stumbling block in the
way OF the measures final enactment
prior to the recess next week OF
Congress.
The fight over this provision OF
the bill, adopted unanimously by
the Senate. broke unexpectedly in the
Senate and prohibition leaders
declared 1t was more than likely all

fall with the possibility that the
Treasury Department meanwhile
might issue regulations under which
beer could be manufactured and pre-
scribed for the sick
Because Of the evident intention
OF Senate conferees to destoy the ef-
feet Of the Stanley amendment. Sen
ator Ashurst. Democrat Arizona
"bolted" the conference. announcing
that nc would take no part therein
or sign any report unless the amend.
ment was retained precisely a,
originally written. Senator Ashurs
told the Senate the effect Of the
House substitute would legalize home
tmanufacture Of beer and liquor.
At the end of an all-day wrangl,
cording to leaders, the whole course
Of the proposed anti-beer Legislation
hinged on hope OF agreement boy
Senate and House managers. While
Senator Sterling, Republican. Soutl
Dakota. chairman Of the conference
declined 10 indicate how the mem
bers stood. the result Of the days de
liberation was said 10 have been tn
virtual wrecking Of the amendmen
from the shape in which II receive,

The presence Of Wayne B. Wheel

Saloon League at a meeting Of tn
conferees on the anti-beer bill wa
characterized in the Senate by Sen

he had a right TO do so.

Stomach trouble is almost al
ways followed by complication of
diseases. One of the first being an
overworked liver, with all the
symptoms Of biliousness, followed
in turn with headaches, coated ton
que, nausea, dizzy spells, pain in
the back, palpitation of the heart
and other distressing symptoms
Sooner or later the kidneys will
become involved and that is just
why these danger signals should be
Needed in time. A wise man puts
out the fire before there is too
much destruction; the same theory
should apply to stomach trouble.
Gas in the stomach means fer
mentation instead of digestion; de-
cay, instead of nutrition for fer
mentation produces poisons, which
are absorbed by the blood, and
which frequently bring on the con-
dition known as auto-intoxication
Oh self-poisoning. This is also why
VIC develop acidosis, which brings
Oh so many complications such as
rheumatism, hardening Of the ar
teries, high blood pressure and
ether conditions, which may mean
permanent loss of health. .Acidos!s
is one Of the main forerunners of
Bright's disease and diabetes,
hence it is evident that if we have
stomach trouble, however slight,
we are foolish indeed if we do not
take prompt steps to correct it.
If we are not fit as a fiddle in
the morning: if we don't feel better
than when we went to bed; if our
breath is offensive; and we have
that bad taste in the mouth; nature
has set the danger signals for US
and we cannot afford to neglect
the warning that she gives US.
That is just why the demand for
Tanlac, the great Stomachic, Sys-
temic and Reconstructive tonic has
broken all Worlds records. The
American people have learned that
it probably provides the surest,
