 STRICT PLATFORM
Personal Observance of 18th Is
 Chief Plank

Washington. Jan. 27 P-Strict ton law by all government off, cials, governors of states and public servants who have sworn loyalty to the constitution was asked in the platform adopted today by the mid- winter conference of the National Womens Christian Temperance Union.
 The platform also calls for in creased penalties for violations of the prohibition law and demands that bootleggers be held responsible for sickness or death resulting from the sale of poisonous or contraband liquor.
 Suppression of manufacture and sale of hip flasks as we'll as utensils and ingredients employed in the making of drinks was asked on the ground that such practices were in violation of the law.
 The platform designated prohibi- ton as the best method of dealing with the liquor question, and made a broad appeal for cooperation by citizens, newspapers, magazine writ CTS, public entertainers and society leaders. Disregard of the constitu- ton, it said, should be looked upon as bad form.
 Prohibition has added s6.000, ,000,- 900 to the nations wealth and has made for better homes, better schools, greater efficiency and pro- ductivity of the American working men as compared with those of : other nations of the world, the plat form asserted.

Piles Go Quick
Without SalNcs or Cutting

Thousands who have piles don't know that quick and permanent re- lief can be accomplished with inter- nal medicine. Cutting or any amount of treatment with ointments and suppositories will not remove the cause.
 Bad circulation causes piles. There is stagnation of blood circulation in the lower bowel and a weakening of the parts. Dr. J. s. Leonhardt found the remedy and called his prescription HEM-ROID. Dr. Leon- hardt tried it in many. many cases with a marvellous record of success, such a wonderful record that HEM ROID is now sold by druggists everywhere under a rigid money back guarantee.
 Don't waste any more time with outside applications. Get a package of HEM ROID from Fair Dept. Store. Inc. today. It has given quick and lasting relief to thous- Hnds and should do the same for you.

BROWNING CASE ID
 CONTINUE PUBLIC
Judge Refuses to Order Secret
 Session Monday

White Plains, N. Y, Jan. 27 R- Counsel for Edward West Browning, New York realestate man, today began a careful study of the yer batim testimony given the last two days here in the separation suit brought by the realtor against his young wife. the former Frances (Peaches) Heenan.
 In these two days. MT. Browning, who was denied bill of particulars some weeks ago, learned from his wife, her mother friends and doc tors, of what he is accused in the nature of alleged acts of cruelty dur ing the six months of his widely publicized marriage.
 So brief and rapid was the hand ling of his wife's case, which rested yesterday, it was found at 2:12 in the afternoon that MT. Browning's counsel after ending their cross-ex- aminations, had no witnesses in the court with whom to begin rebuttal of Mrs. Browning's charges, which constituted her legal answer to his suit accusing her of abandonment.
 Will Remain Open.
 When the case reopens here at 10 o'clock Monday morning. Supreme Court Justice Seeger will resume his position as judge of the hearing. which will continue to be open to the public and the press, he said last night.
 Protests from John S. Sumner of the New York society for the pre- vention of vice, he said, had already been answered by him, if MT. Sum- ner would refer back to the an- nouncement made at the time the hearing was declared open.
 At that time. Justice Seeger pointed out, that while ordinarily he would grant secret hearing to per sons desiring it, he had found noth- ing to lead him to believe that the parties in the present separation ac- tion had ever sought secrecy.
 Justice Seeger explained that "the policy of our law is against secrecy except in such cases as are definite ly set forth in the law" and said he believed the rules of law would up-

Woman Loves
 Housework. Has Good Time

T had stomach gas so bad that work was a burden and l was al ways drowsy. Adlerika is the best medicine I ever took. Since taking it, l feel like doing my work and enjoy life again. - Mrs. W. H. ClintSman.
 Adlerika gives the system a REAL cleansing and brings out old poisons which may have caused trouble for a long time. Unlike most medicines, it acts upon BOTH upper and lower bowel. Just one spoonful relieves GAS and takes away that full, bloated feeling so that you can eat better and sleep better. Even if bowels move daily, Adlerika brings out much addition al poison which you never thought was in. your system and which caused sour, gassy stomach, nerv- ousness, sleeplessness, headache. No matter what you have tried for your stomach and bowels, Adlerika will surprise you. At druggists.
