BAY RUM RAIDS AWAIT TEST IN lOWA COURTS Seizure of 5-ancHO Stocks to Reduce ‘Jags’ Stirs Battle, BY JOSEPH F. HEARST T'nitert Pr*v staff Correspondent DES MOINES. la., June IT—The moot question of whether bay rum is a face lotion or an alcoholic beverage in lowa will be decided in the near future. Attorneys for both sides have agreed to a continuance of the test case, but in the meantime drug stores and shops in Des Moines will use considerable care in selling the commodity. Doubt that bay rum was what it seemed to —that is, an after ! shaving lotion—first dawned on Des j Moines store keepers a few weeks I ago when city police walked into I the main store of the F. W. Wool- ! worth Cos., served a warrant charging maintenance of a liquor nuis- | ance on S. A. Plankey, the manager, j and carted off the store's supply of I 1.347 three-ounce bottles of bay rum. Subsequently they raided another i Woolworth store in Des Moines and

! confiscated 2.000 or more bottles of the lotion and lodged the same complaint against Neal McCarthy, the manager. When the attorneys for both sides finally get their arguments in order the case will be aired in the municipal courtroom of Judge J*alph E. Powers. A! Adams, assistant county attorney who instituted the raids, •rill seek to condemn the bay rum as an alcoholic drink and make his liquor nuisance charge stick against McCarthy and Plankev. If successful he will then seek to enjoin further sale of the liquid. Action against the store came, according to Adams, when it was discovered a great many of the drunken men picked up by police were on bay rum” jags. Since sale of the lotion has been restricted the number of “drunks” who got that way on shaving lotion high balls has dropped off 30 per cent, Adams declared. Police proceeded against the “five and ten” just as they might have against the ordinary back alley bootlegger or the speakeasy proprietor. Men first were sent to the stores and “buys” were made. The raids followed. The lotion sold by the stores and consumed the drinkers. Adams declared, is a reputed palatable drink. W oman Leaves for Africa TERRE HAUTE. Ind..

HOOVER FISHING BAN IS FOUGHT Sportsmen Protest Creek ‘Posting’ Order, | B<i I nitr<l Pits* BALTIMORE. June 11.—Swepson Earle, state conservation commissioner, has announced he will investigate a protest by James E. Soit, to a Frederick (Md.) newspaper to the posting of Hunting creek at Catoctin Furnace, Md., one of President Hoover's fishing retreats. In his letter, called to Earle's attention, Solt said he and other fishermen had removed debris about the stream and stocked it with trout. He complained that after the Catoctin Furnace preserve had been purchased by Lawrence Richey, one of Mr. Hoover’s secretaries, the creek was posted by the government. Earle said the government had agreed to place 100.000 young trout in the stream yearly and the state conservation commission planned to establish a trout nursery in the Catoctin section. Henry O’Malley, commissioner of federal bureau of fisheries, today denied the creek had been posted ! by the government and at his offices jit was pointed out the federal j authorities had no jurisdiction to | take such action.

Millions of Families Depend on Dr. Caldwell’s Prescription
When Dr. Caldwell started to ? practice medicine back in 1875. the needs for a laxative were not as j great as they are today. People lived normal, quiet lives, ate plain whole- i some food, and got, plenty of fresh j air and sunshine. But even that j early there were drastic physics and purges for the relief of constipa- j tion which Dr. Caldwell did not believe were good for human beings j to put into their systems. So he I wrote a prescription for a laxative : to be used by his patients. The prescription for constipation that he used early in his practice, and which he put in drug stores in i 1892 under the name of Dr. Cald- [ well's Syrup Pepsin, is a liquid vege- | table remedy, intended for women, j children and elderly people, and I they need just such a mild, safe. ! gentle bowel stimulant as Syrup j Pepsin. * Under successful management j this prescription has proven its ! worth and is now the largest selling liquid laxative in the world. The fact that millons of bottles are used a year proves that it has won the confidence of people who needed it to get relief from headaches, biliousness, flatulence, indigestion, lass of appetite and sleep, bad breath, dy.spep.sia. colds and fevers. Millions of families are now never without Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, and if you will once start using it

you will also always have a bottle handy for emergencies. It is particularly pleasing to know that the most of it is bought by mothers for themselves and 4 lie children, though Syrup Pepsin is just as valuable for elderly people. All drug stores have the generous bottles. A trial is sure to convince any household of the merits of this famous prescription. Advertisement
