any one who is younger and as 1 am a farmer’s wife I have plenty to do for I cultivate my own garden, raise many chickens and do my own housework. You may publish this letter as I am ready to do anything to help other women as I have been so well and happy since my troubles are past. ’ ’—Mrs. E.T. Galloway, Carter’s Creek, Tenn. Most women find plenty to do. If they are upset with some female ailment and troubled with such symptoms as Mrs. Galloway had, the smallest duty seems a mountain. If you find it hard to keep up, if you are nervous and irritable, without ambition and out of sorts generally, give the Vegetable Compound a fair trial. Wc believe it will help you greatly, for it has helped others. MR. BROKAW COMES TO THE FRONT Tells Hla Friends and Neighbors of His Experience. Every Decatur resident should read what Mr. Brokaw says, and follow his example. He has used Doan’s Kidney Pills and speaks from experience.

Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. U. S. Sets Out to Make Ocean Dry As Sahara (Continued from page one) ing was not intended to be enforced ind that no attempt would be made o enforce literally. It was issued imply to make this government's course impartial and consistent by demanding universal enforcement against all alike, of American law. It was intimated in official quarters that regulations to be issued by Secretary of the Treasury Mellon regarding foreign ships would provide that an affidavit by the master of any foreign vessel carrying liquor that it was not being brought to the United States for sale and that none of it would be permitted to fall into American hands would open the barrier. The United States government holds that foreign governments have no cause for complaint against the Daugherty liquor ruling, a high official of the state department said today, sineb both the ruling and the prohibition amendment relate entirely to American territory, insofar as foreign vessels are concerned. It was pointed out that the supreme court has ruled that the transportation in bond of liquor through the United States, as for instance, from Mexico to Canada, is forbidden under the Volstead law. So far as the state department is < oncerned, therefore, the whole matter is up to congress and the courts. 11' foreign ship owners desire to attack the ruling they will do it through the courts rather than through diplomatic channels, in the opinion of state department officials. An immediate test of the Daugherty rule will be sought in the courts probably by both American and foreign shipping interests. Daugherty announced his readiness to help expediate a final decision. He said he relied on previous decisions of the United States supreme court in making his ruling. If that court should maintain its position, Daugherty’s ruling would stand at least as to American ships. The court has held in effect, that the constitution follows the flag not only on land but on the seas and that the w ording of the prohibition . amendment niakes it clear that wherever the United States government has jurisdiction there the prohibitory law applies. There were rumors today that Chairman Lasker of Ithe shipping, board would resign his post in protest against the ruling. Lasker caused shipping board vessels to begin the sale of liquor as a means of com-

petlng in the passenger trade against bur-equipped foreign liners, "There will be several ways for foreign ships to evade the ruling,” Lasker said. “For one thing they could carry enough liquor on leaving foreign parts to last them to the three mile limit, and then throw overboard what was left, or, they could put into Montreal ur Vancouver. “The west coast is where we will bo lilt hardest, for Portland and Seattle are in a hot race with Vancouver for Pacifflc business. This hits us hard in the Pacific.” Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel of the anti-saloon league, said the decision is "second law and good reason. It will help law enforcement greatly. It sustains the contenion which we made.” British Remain Quiet London, Oct. 7 —Pending receipt of full information concerning the sweeping order of Attorney General Daugherty, which bans liquor from foreign ships entering American ports, government officials and shippers cautiously refrained from commenting today. Puzzled resentment over the order, however, was sensed in government ind shipping circles. There is a possibility that British ships will drop their cargoes of liquor at Canadian ports on the way to the United States and then pick the liquor stored up on the way back. American tourists were shocked by the-order of the attorney general. They are speculating on whether the order will become effective at a sufficiently early date io prevent homeward bottle-toting across the ocean and the usual party before the shores of dry America are reached.

Douse Brothers BUSINESS SEDAN With this car, Dodge Brothen have literally created a new type of sedan. They have combined open car ruggedness with closed car protection and smartness. They have demonstrated, once for all, that a sedan can be as practical and almost as inexpensive as an *, ’ open touring car. The body is built of hand-welded steel because steel is sturdy, and will take a permanent, oven-baked finish, eliminating forever the cost of repainting. The seats are upholstered in attractive, genuine Spanish blue leather, because leather will wash and wear. To further enlarge the car’s usefulness, the rear seat, back and side cushions, seat frame and foot rest are quickly removable, giving si tty-four cubic feet of flat loading space in the rear compartment. The manifold uses made possible by this unique feature are readily imagined. The top and rear quarters are of non-rumble, fabric construction, conforming with the present attractive vogue. From cord tires to curtain cords, the fittings, inside and out, are distinctive and complete. Tn fact, every detail of the car emphasizes its striking adaptability to business as well as social use.
