France, like America, is having
trouble with booze substitutes. but, un-
like the land of thirst, the French police
are complaining that the chief fault is
that the substitute limitations of strong
drinks are really better than the pre-
war brands.
For more than year the thirst OF
American visitors has been quenched
by chemical product with a base OF
aniseed, masquerading as absinthe. The
law has provided complicated standard
to define the point where it ceases to
be anise and commences to border on
absinthe; namely, when 1t remains
opaque when four times it's own volume
of water is added. At Nancy this week,
however, the inspectors discovered a
new brand which Is enjoying the repu-
tation of providing a first class Joyfest
After a few libations the investigation
proved that the manufacturer had found
formula cheaper and stronger than
those of his competitors and was getting
rich quick. The law provided no penalty
for the maker, but the owner OF the
cafe where the drink was purveyed had
his stock -confiscated, was heavily fined
and his license Cancelled.

That poverty is no excuse for treason
was decided in court in the sentencing of
Belgian named Courtroy to hard labor
for life in a military prison for aiding
the Germans in forcing his countrymen
to manufacture shells with which to kill
their fellow Belgians. The crime was
committed in Belgium, but Courtroy was
arrested in Paris.
Early in the war when the Germans
first occupied Liege. Courtroy placarded
the city offering a bonus to all workers
needing money. When the applicants
refused TO do the work Courtroy offered
he denounced them to the Germans. but
IL they agreed to be transferred to the
interior Of Germany. Courtroy promised
them 100 francs month.
According to the evidence Courtroy
received three francs for each man he
employed. often he obtained as many
as forty a day. The only explanation
he gave was that he needed the money.

A large number of Germans who tried

annual quota limit of 1854 so about
1000 returned and went to Italy where
they were cordially received. Only n
few went to Belgium, where they are
not welcome. Three hundred and forty
Germans returned to their homes in

Revenge for offended love was the
unusual excuse which Kurt Teichmann
offered when tried for committing bur-
glary in the house OF the Consul of a
foreign Power in Berlin. Teichmann
and his brother entered the Consurs
house, handcuffed and gagged SER
want and robbed the place of jewelry
and silverware. After selling the booty
Teichmann repented and wrote to the
police telling of his guilt.
At his trial he declared that the Con-
sui had betrayed his sweetheart and he
had robbed the Consuls house in re-
venge. When the jury sentenced him to
four and half years in prison the
young woman who had been the cause
of Teichmann's act walked UP to the

tionate farewell.

Strenuous Financing Saves Chicago House From Big LOss-Year's Business Causes Tumble to
 Sears, Roebuck & Co.

Chicago, Dec. 30.-Sears, Roebuck & Company, tonight reported the sale to Julius Rosenwald, president of the company, of certain it's Chicago real estate for Is million dollars and the gift of fifty thousand shares of stock from MT. Rosenwald, thus permitting the company "to go thru this period of readjustment with it's capital un- impaired and with a small surplus
 Mr. Rosenwald already has made the first payment of 25 per cent, of 4 million dollars, on the real estate, in cash and Liberty bonds For the re- maining 75 per cent of the purchase price, the company is secured by a trust deed on the property, without Mir. Rosenwald mourning a personal liability under the terms of such trust deed. The company will con- tinue to occupy the property on a long term lease. Both the lease and deferred payments run on per cent annual basis.
 Mir. Rosenwald's gift to the com pany of fifty thousand shares of it's own common capital stock having par value of 5 million dollars is on condition that the said shares be not sold for less than par and that he be given the option for period of three years, to puchase these shares from the company at par, for cash. A. H. Loeb, vice president of the company, said of the action:
 'The price MT. Rosenwald paid for the property reflects the value as de- termined by independent appraisal, which by reason of appreciation over many years, is far in excess of book value. No expense in the transac- tion was incurred by the company for bonus, commission of brokerage. The company will have the use and occu- pancy of the property for twenty years, and no doubt, for as much longer as 1t may desire.
 According to a forecast of the fi- nal 1921 figures, it is evident the year now ending will result in large net loss, but by reason of MT. Rosen- wald's purchase of the property and of his stock gift the company will be enabled to go thru this period of re- adjustment with it's capital unim- paired and with a small surplus. The company is now operating at profit, it's condition is daily improving and the outlook is promising.
