A TRUST FUND SAYS PRITCHARD
Dispensary Not a Branch of the
State Government.
Asheville, N. (J., Feb 29.?
Id the matter of the Fieisch
maDO company against the dis
pensary commission of South
Carolina, Judge J. C. Pritchard
in the United 8tates circui"
court today held that the court
could assume jurisdiction in thi>

case uu cue grouuu uun iuciuuu
in the hands of the dispensary
commissioners is a trust fund
held for the creditors of the dispensary.
In substance tho judge's decision
states: x
"That, as the Slate of South
Carolina has seen fit, to engage
in the purchase and sale of
spirituous liquors, it can not be
reasonably contended that in so
doing it is Derlorming the functions
usually exercised by a
Stale when necessary to pre
serve its autonomy and maintain
its sovereignty.
"The supreme court -of that
State has decided tbat the act
authorizing the establishment of
a dispensary was constitutional .
However, it can hardly be as
sumed that it was con emplated
at the time of the adoption ol
the lltli amendment that a
sovereign 8tate would engage in
the purchase ana'wale of wpirituou^iau(^fornrofiL^**?,w

"The State, having seen fit to
? engage ia this business, and at
the same time to deprive its
oitizens of the right to engage in
such business in competition
with the State, thereby placed
itself in a position where i"
could not, with consistency, avail
itself of the immunity conferred
by the 11th amendment in a
suit like the one at bar, in
which it is sought to collect a
debt contracted by the individuals
placed in control of
such business, with implied if
Dot direct authority to contract
such debt. Having deprived its
citizens of a right to engage in
this particular line of business,
reserving the right to monopolize
the business through its agents,
appointed for that purpose, it
would be manifestly unjust to
permit the State under any cir

Rational Pneumonia Treatment
The most successful physicians
are now treating pneumonia
by the application of counter-irritants.
They are learning
to resist the temptation to doct( r
the cough, which, after all, is
raly nature's effort to relieve
herself, and are endeavoring to
reach the seat of the congestion
without the use of internal remedies.
Home are using preparations
about as pleasant to the patient
as an application of mud or putty,
but the wisest use a pleasant
liquid counter-irritant.
The ideal remedy is Noah's
Liniment. Its carefully compounded
ingredients possess
wonderful powers of penetration
and immediately reduce the inBammaiion
and congestion.
Kfnoli'a T.inimont. ifl ahsnlnt.plv
harmless, and can be used freely
without consultation with a
physician. Apply the liniment
freely over the point of pain or
congestion. Saturate a hot flan el
and keep it applied to that
portion of the body. The effect
will be almost immediate, and in
many cases the threatened pneumonia
will be dispelled before a
physician can be secured.
Best for rheumatism, sciatia,
lame back, stiff joints and
muscles, sore throat, colds,
strains, spraiins, cuts, bruises,
colic, cramps, etc. For internal
ind external aches and pains
Noih's Liniment has no equal.
