BEGIN HOT WAITER
DRINKING uF YOU
DON'T FEEL RIGHT
Says glass Of hot water with
phosphate, before breakfast
washes out poIsons.

II you wake up with bad taste, bad
breath and tongue is coated; Il your
head is dull or aching; If what you eat
sours and forms gas and acid in stom-
ach, or you are bilious, cOnstipated,
nervous, salloW and can't get feeling
Just right, begin inside bathing. Drink
before breakfast, q glass Of real hot
water with teaspoonful Of limestone
phosphate in it. This will flush the
poisons and toxins from stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels and cleanse,
sweeten and purify the entire alimen-
tary tract. Do your inside bathing I'M
mediately upon arising in the morning
to wash out Of the system all the pre-
vious days poisonous waste, gases and
sour bile before putting more food into
the stomach.
To feel like young folks feel; like
you felt before your blood, nerves and
muscles became loaded with body inn
purities, get from your pharmacist a
quarter pound Of limestone phosphate
which is inexpensive and almost taste
less, except for a sourish twinge which
Is not unpleasant.
Just as soap and hot water act on
the skin, cleansing, sweetening and
fFeshening, 30 hot water and limestone
phosphate act. on the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels. Men and women
who are usually constipated, bilious,
headaehy or have any stomach dis
order should begin this inside bathing
before breakfast. They are assured
they will become real Grankg on the
subject shortly.

BICYCLE RIDERS MAY USE
SIDEWALKS ON RAINY DAYS

The boys and girls of Bogalusa
who attend the public schools, are
to be given the privilege of riding
their bicycles on the sidewalks to and
from school on rainy days.
Although there is an ordinance
against this, it was decided at the
meeting of the Commission Council
Tuesday night that Superintendent
of Police Magee could issue instruc-
tons to the men of the force to al
low the students to use the sidewalks
in bad weather, provided they stop
and dismount when nearing pedes-

Local Ball Players
Urged to Organize

In the furry Of preparing for the
coming of the Browns" this month
to begin their spring training, Boga-
lusa has temporarily forgotten her
own ball team.
While it is true that the visiting
athletes will entertain US with some
high-class exhibitions of America S
great pastime, which now ranks sec
Ond since the passing of the Volstead
Act, they will be with US only for
two months, and the long summer lies
ahead. 1t would be a wise plan for
the Bogalusa club to start their pre-
parations for a first-class team at
an early date.
The Industrial League, which
last year frightened many "blue"
Sunday, will open in May. But this
year Bogalusa fans will want to see
more out-of-town teams in action,
and if they are to come, let them be
good ones-and we will want better
team to receive them.
Bogalusa has two of the finest ball
parks in the South at their disposal,
and if the colored team lives up to
the precedent set last year by the
Bogalusa Paper Company team, they
will put the colored ball players Of
Bogalusa on the sporting map. AL
ready plans are being made to enter
the club in the Colored Southern
League.
But the white team should also re-
ceive attention. If club was organ
lied at once and the eligible players
of the city listed so that the officers
could find where the weak spots lay,
sufficient time would be allowed for

MACKIE CATCHES NEGRO
STEALING $40 PAIR BREEKS

]. c. Mackie Of the Bogalusa
Stores established himself as Sher-
lock Holmes Thursday evening when
he caught, single-handed, negro
who had just lifted pair of pants
worth $40.
The man gave his name as Joe
Thomas and said that he was passing
through the store during the rush
hour at 6 o'clock and, after examin-
ing the trousers, just couldn't turn
loose of them, although he did not
have the wherewitnal to make the
purchase.
Mackie saw him as he was leaving
the store and followed him out to the
street and with many sweet words
persuaded him to return to the store
and await the arrival Of the police.

INCOME TAX FACTS
YOU SHOULD KNOW

Births, deaths and marriages dur
ing the year 1920 affect materially
income tax returns for that year.
Millions of babies were added to
the family circles, each of whom
brings an exemption Of $500 in the
parents income tax return.
Widows and widowers who lost
their husbands or wives during the
year are especially affected. They
are single for the purposes of the in
come tax law and are granted only
an exemption of $1,000, unless the
head of family.
Persons who were divorced or
separated by mutual agreement dur
ing the year also must consider them
selves as single persons.
The status of the taxpayer on De-
cember 1, 1920, determines the
amount of the exemptions. If on
that day the taxpayer was married
and living with wife or husband,
claim may be made for the $4,000
exemption. If single, or married and
not living with wife or husband on
December 1, the exemption is only
81, 1000.
Persons who reached majority
during the year and whose earnings
for that period amounted to $1,000
or mbre, or $4,000 or more, according
to their marital status, must file a
return and pay tax on their net
income in excess of those amounts.
To avoid penalty, the return must
be in the hands of the collector of in
ternal revenue for the district in
which the taxpayer lives, or has his
principal place of business, on or be-
fore midnight of March Is, 1921.

scouting" to make up a first-class
aggregation. Numbers of college
students will want jobs during the
summer months and good ball players
would sooner work in a town where
there is a chance to play ball.
Making this the spring training
camp of major league team has
put Bogalusa on the sporting map,
but we'll need a team of our own
to keep it on until the Browns" be-
gin their training again next year.

LEGION DANCE A SUCCESS,
BUT NOT A FINANCIAL. ONE

The dance given by the American
Legion at the Elks' Home Saturday
night was great success socially,
but it failed to fatten the purse of
the Legion from a financial stand
point.
Only fifteen couples were on the
floor and Buddy Petite's band was at
its best. The dance lasted until 2
o'clock and the music was still going
strong when the party broke up.

elusive Of railroads, telegraph and
telephone property, at $4,467, 451, 1862,

From an amateur naturalists letter
to the Inquisitor: Let me tell you
some of the things / have een this
spring. Last Friday when the high
school boys and girls we're playing
base ball, there was a birds nest
right on the diamond. Right on the
-round. There were three little baby
larks in the nest. The larks were
so much like the ground that You had
to look twice to find them. The nest
was right between home and first
base so Mary Sayre and ] dug It up,
just like a flower, and moved it out of
the way. If we had left it alone the
boys would have stepped on it and
killed the birds.

terry to see what we could see. While

some young rabbits he had found.

Allied Premlers Seem Confident That
Athens Government viii Give in
II Greek Army Is Withdrawn
Situation Threatening.

London,-Greece has refused to &C.
cept the proposal that an investigation
OF conditions be made in Thraee AMI
Smyrna preparatory to making altera-
tions in the Sevres treaty. NJ. Kalo-
geropolous, head OF the Greek delega-
tion in this city, received telegram
to this effect from the Athens govern
ment.
The telegram was not presented Of
ficially TO allied premiers, and they
were simply allowed to know its con:
tents indirectly.
1t is considered possible, therefore.
that subsequent telegram may an
null the one received. The Greek re-
fusal was not taken seriously in allied
circles.
Among questions taken up was the
appointment of Turk to the Constan-
tinople financial commission. It is
probable that David Bey, a former
minister of finance, will be selected.
The Greek legation in London re-
0eived a message recently that mass
meetings in Athens, Piraeus and Smyr
ma had passed resolutions declaring
that Greece was prepared for any
sacrifice of blood in defense of her sa
cred rights, which were embodied In
the Sevres treaty"
In the meantime Moslem members
Of the council and state legislative
assembly of Delhi have asked the sec.
rotary of state for India to suggest
to the near east conference the resto-
ration of Thrace and Smyrna to the
Turks. Counter charges that cruelties
have been inflicted by the Greeks
upon Turkish subjects in the Smyrna
region have been filed by Turks.
Newspapers of this city today dis.
cussed the dilemma before the allies,
pointing out that calling into question
two Of the vital sections of the Sevres
treaty, might jeopardize the whole
settlement and that the allies might
lose Greek support without gaining
the good will of the Turks. IN other
words, 1t was said that If full execu.
ton of the Sevres pact should be in
sisted upon the Greek army--the sole
instrument for its enforcement
might no longer be available.
