CURB ON GRETNA GREENS

CENATOR CANTWELL'S bill tc
- curb or end Gretna Green marriages
at Elkton and other points in Maryland
offered in the Legislature is in line with
suggestion by Editor Carey, of th.
North East Star. The Senator i,
quoted as follows upon the measure pre-.
posed, which is aimed at outsiders onl,
''My feeling is that a measure i'm.
posing no restrictions on Marylan,
residents. but aimed at non residents o.
the State will cure the trouble" sale
Senator Cantwell.
Residents of Maryland can 60 any
where in the State now and be marriec
under Maryland laws, and there is n,
reason why any restriction should be
placed on that. The bad feature OF
Elkton's business is that couples com.
from other States to elude the laws
those States. Forty-eight hours notice
of applications for marriage license,
will stop that, and we will have no
change whatever made in the law as
far as it affects Marylanders.
II believe that the Legislature will
pass bill of this sort.
Two years ago measures aimed at the
situation here and elsewhere in the
State were introduced, but were killed,
it was generally agreed, because they
sought to change the law affecting resi-
dents of Maryland and impose On them
the 48-hour mott e.

A Judicious Inquiry

A we'll known travelling man who
visits the drug trade, says he has often
heard druggists ask a customer, who
whether it was for child or an adult
and II for child, they almost invariably
recommended Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. The reason for this is that
they know there is no danger from it
and that 1t always cures. There is not
the least danger in giving it and for
colds, Group and wbooping cough it is
unsurpassed.
