Or sharp stabs of pain at every sudden twist or turn? There is no peace from that dull ache. No rest from the soreness, lameness, and weakness. Many folks have found relief thru Doan’s Pills. They are a stimulant diuretic to the kidneys. Clinton people recommend Doan’s. G. W. Clardy, farmer, 76 E. Fergu son St., Clinton, says: “I do a great deal of heavy work^and I lay that to causing my kidney trouble. I had a sore feeling through my kidneys and the pain was steady. At night my kidneys acted too freely. Between the backache and disordered kidneys, I didn’t get my regular rest and felt out of sorts. I used Doan’s Pills from Smiths Pharmacy and they quickly riiPme of the trouble.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t sim ply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Pills—the same that Mr. Clardy had.

SWIM IN LAKE THOMAS Twenty-four Administrators Named to Wage Intensive Campaign to Dry Up United States Washington, Aug. 21.—The field commanders of the nation’s reorgan ized, prohibition army were named to day, giving them ten days in which to begin formation of their staffs in preparation for an intensive cam paign to dry up the United States and its possessions. The new command made up of 24 federal prohibition administrators, who shall assume full charge .of ad ministering the dry law September 1, and one chief prohibition investigator, was organized chiefly from among the old dry officers, only six new men being appointed. Eleven of the for mer state directors, five division chiefs, the chief of general agent were promoted. This came as surprise since Assist ant Secretary Andrews of the treas ury, the prohibition field marshal, had declared in announcing his plans for reorganisation that the new dry re gime would be made up principally of business or military executives in an effort to put fresh life into the en forcement organization. Explaining the retention of so many of the former officials. Mr. Andrews said today he had concluded after meeting them that it would be a great mistake not to give most of them the chance to operate under a system that I feel will give more pow’er and effi ciency to the field enforement of pro hibition. Five of the new appointed are for mer army officers and one a former railroad officiaL Seven of the executives were namde only as acting administrators because General Andrews said he had not yet determined on the men who may meet the .requirements in these districts. He expects, however, that after the new machinery begins working, some of those given temporary assignment may demonstrate their ability to ren der service. Outstanding in the announcement of the new dry staff was the appoint ment of Walton A. Green, former army officer, who assisted Mr. An drews, a brigadier general during the war, in the formation of the military police in France, as the chief prohibi tion investigator, a new office, and The sending to the San Francisco dis trict as federal administrator of E. C. Yellowley, chief of general prohi bition agents whose office is abolish ed. Mr. Green, who also is a former publisher of the Boston Journal, will be charged with the building up of a highly trained group of investigators who shall work on large conspiracy cases. They will be the eyes in the Field for General Andrews to de termine what results are being ob tained from the expenditure of mil lions of dollars to enforce prohibition. Besides Chief Investigator Green, the new appointees include Frederick Baird, former traffic manager of the Bessemer & Lake Erie railroad who shall be in charge of the Pittsburgh district; Halsey Dunwoody, formerly a colonel in the army, who has been en gaged in business in France, in charge at Tampa; Herbert H. White, former army officer at Fort Worth, Texas; Robert E. Firth, former army officer, at Los Angeles, and A. J. Hanlon, for mer army officer, at San Juan, P. R/- Those named as acting administra tors are:R. B. Sams, former director for New Jersey, who shall be in charge of the Boston district; J. A. Foster, former divisions! chief at Philadelphia, who is given the New York district; R. Q. Merrick, former divisional chief at New York, the Buffalo district; B. E. Ewing, former director for Illinois, the Chicago dis trict; H. A- Townsend, former divis ional chief st Chicago, the St. Paul district; W. D. Moss, former division al chief st Kansas City, Mo., the St. Louis district; and E. C. F. Crmbbe, former general agent, the Hawaiian district. T Those ' appointed administrators from the present force include: William G. Murdock, former director for Pennsylvania, who is given the Philadelphia district; Edmund Bud- nits, former Maryland director, the the Baltimore distrct; R. A. Fulwiler, former director of Virginia, the Roa noke district; J. C. Harpe, former divisional chief at Salisbury, N. C., the Charlotte district; O. D. Jackson, former Louisiana director, the new Orleans district; Sam Colllins, for mer director for Kentucky, "die Louis ville district ^E. L. Porterfield, former director director for Ohio, the Colum bus district; A. W.-McCampbell, for mer assistant divisional chief at New York, the Omaha district; John F. Vivian, former Colorado director, the Denver district; Elias Marsters, for-, mer director of Idaho, the Helena dis trict; and Roy C. Lyle, former director for the state of Washington, the Se attle district. As soon as the administrators as sembled their. staffs of assistants, comprising deputy administrators, a group head to cooperate with United States attorneys, a legal adviser and chemist, they will commence their campaign along three definite lines of attack. * Their squadrons of mobile forces will he directed chiefly against the sources of' J^Ueg supply, described as important, manufacture, diversion The bootleg ket, said by Andrews to be the most difficult problem facing enforce- ment authorities because of its indif ference to consequences, ignorance of colossal gullibility, will be attacked ^hrough the medium of an educational campaign by those organisations and individuals interested in the law ob servance and community welfare. The third objective set by the chief calls for the federal forces to assist and develop local law enforcement and this duty classed as secondary will be left to the judgement, initia tive and resourcefulness of tire fed eral administrators. The national prohibition ^ law, said a statement issued by Mr. An drews, make it unlawful to supply alcoholic, beverages to those who want to buy them. The big demand for these beverages creates a ready mar ket and unddlr the economic law of supply and demand, the business of belling to this market has been es tablished. This outlaw business, in alt its manifestations, is the real enemy of government and society. Its elimination is the main objective for the federal forces.- In selecting their subordinate staffs the administration will have available the present mobile field forces. All unclassified men in the field, however will be automatically dropped Oc tober 15, except those chosen for po sitions in the organization. With the transfer, of authority to the fighting field force, as Mr. An drews described it, Prohibition Com missioner Hayes, who has had control over enforement since June, 1921, will relinquish all administrative power and be given moret or less sup ervisory duties to perform. He is ex pected to resign in time to enter the race for governor of Ohio next year. t THE JUDGE’S JOSH ♦ ♦ Not That Bad Bride: “Richard ate something for lunch yesterday that made him awful ly ill.” Friend: “Croquette?” • Bride: “Oh, no—but he’s awful sick.” Three Morq Miles They had been having a little fam ily spat.
