lie memorial | Bat is seen f Jut once . . j i~™ In a sense the casket is as much a tribute to the departed as the stone p aced above it. Unlike the stone howH ever, the casket is seen for a few brief hours only. Doubly important, then, is the impression that it is to leave. This does not mean that it must be ■■ excessively costly. Thousands may be H spent on it or it may cost as little as mM $75.00 and still express taste and sinH eerily quite as eloquently as the more ■■ expensive one. We advise that indiB vidual taste, not price, be the jjfuide in B selection. The moderately priced caskets which we offer are beautifully HD designed, perfectly finished and repreB sent full value for the price asked and our service is unexcelled- our equipB ment is the best that money can buy.

OPIUM SEIZURE I REVEALS SCOPE 1)1 SWUNG ! Marseilles Vessel Gives up ! Ton of Contraband; League Handicapped Ii By Richard D. McMillan j (United Press Staff Correspondent) Marseilles. Sept. 17—(UP) —By I | -iefzi re here on board an East-to-west bound liner of a ton of opium, 'customs authorities revealed that illicit traffic in dangerous drugs goes Jon as usual, despite' activities of i world agents of the League of Na-1 tions. The opium seized was destined for Paris, presumably for consump-1 tion by the drug-fields who haunt Montmartre and Montparnasse, craving for the sedatives which wii! enable them to forget for a time the : cares of everyday life. Customs officials admit the League's drugs commission, with its ramifications in all big ports throughout the world has done much to curb the traffic in narcotics, but Takes Mineral Salts —Lifts 1000 Pounds "My strength has increased so I ' can lift 1000 lbs. since taking Vinol. I am feeling full of pep and ambition now.” —Harry Becker. For 30 years doctors have prescriiied Vino! because it contains important mineral elements of iron, calcium and cod liver peptone.

From time to timo it is possible for police to ferret out presence of bulk consignments but to track down on every liner each small packet, maybe hidden in the personal belongings of coolie or Chinese seamen, is a task beyond the widest and most intelligent organizations. The port of Marseilles, with ves sets dealing to and from the East very day, long has been headquar-' ters for the international drug ring, .vhich is estimated to have a finan■ial hacking running into millions dollars. The traffic of drugs into France itself, however, has been greatly reduced of late, following recent revelations of the increase of drug-taking not only in Paris bu. other parts of the country also This tightening up by the French authorities has not reduced greatly the flow of drugs from the east, oeause K is known that ships pass through Marseilles carrying hund■eds of thousands of dollars worth >f narcotics, to be unloaded perhaps in Spain, Portugal, North Africa or farther afield, the English ports, or perhaps Hamburg, Copenhagen of Baltic ports.
