LA. KLAN PROBE CONTINUES VOL. I, NO. 51 J. W. JOHNSON SAYS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR DYER BILL WANTED Johnson Serves Notice That Substitute for Dyer Bill Is Not Acceptable. CLAIMS LYNCHING FACTS ARE KNOWN IN AMERICA Proposed Commission Calculated to Delay Action on Bill or Arrouse False Hopes New York, Jan. 5.—Proposal by Republican senators to institute a commission for the purpose of investigating lynching in the United States has elicited a sharp letter to Senator Frelinghuysen, author of the resolution, from James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., in which notice is served that a substitute for the Dyer bill will not be acceptable to colored people. Mr. Johnson's letter asserts that the essential facts concerning lynching in America, are known throughout the world, that a commission to "investigate" will be interpreted only as a plan to delay action and to "jull the nation and the Negro with false hopes." The letter in full is as follows: December 21, 1922. Hon. Joseph S. Frelinghuysen, United States Senate, Washington, D. C. My dear Senator Frelinghuysen: I wish to confirm my telegram of today as follows: Your letter with enclosure received. Have given the matter careful study. Am writing you giving reasons why we do not consider proposed measure adequate. I request that you delay action until you receive my letter. I have carefully examined your proposed Joint Resolution establishing commission for the purpose of conducting a general inquiry into the subject of lynchings in the United States, including the number occurring and the causes thereof. We would interpose no active opposition to any steps leading toward the abolishment of the crime of lynching but the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in this case as in a half dozen similar proposals in the past is unable to see any necessity whatsoever for such a commission, nor can we endorse the proposed measure as a substitute for the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill. Such a commission as you propose could gather only statistics and facts such as have already been presented by this association and other agencies and which have been repeatedly and at great length read into the Congressional Record, where they are available to the United States Senate as well as to other citizens. The essential facts in regard to lynching are well known and undisputed. The gathering of such facts for an additional year would have no appreciable effect upon the question. We would, therefore, view this commission plan, with its year of investigation, only as a further delay to the one thing we believe to be essential in the circumstances, and that is legislation giving the Federal government jurisdiction where states fall, as they have failed in the past thirty-five years, to secure the persons accused of crime trial by due process of law, or to prosecute and punish members of mobs. This commission plan, therefore, seems calculated only to delay action or lull the nation and the Negro with false hopes. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will not be actively interested in a commission to investigate lynching. Rather, we insist upon a revision of the Senate rules of procedure and the passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill. Yours very truly, (Sgd) JAS. WELDON JOHNSON, Secretary.

THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN 1910 When her father was missing after a raid by masked men at Mer Rouge, La., Leota Richards, 3, went to Baton Rouge, state capital, accompanied by her mother, and tearfully begged Gov. John M. Parker to find her daddy. The governor started a probe, under cover of militia machine guns, which found Leota's daddy—a mutilated corpse at the bottom of Lake La Fourche—uncovered another slaying and now promises to lead to indictments against 45 citizens. Cohen May Have To Wait Weeks For New Office If Walter Cohen, New Orleans, ever assumes the duties of office of comptroller of customs here, it will not be until well along in next year, according to information from Washington last night. The dispatches say that this was made certain yesterday when the Senate committee on commerce deferred consideration of the case until after the holidays. Cohen held the office for a few weeks under a recess appointment, but was compelled to relinquish it when the Senate in the recent special session of Congress failed to confirm his appointment.

Governor Parker's Fight on Ku Klux Praised by Hylan Governor Parker's Fight on Ku Klux Praised by Hylan Telegram From Mayor Hylan Commends State Executive in Fight Against Klan. New York, Jan. 5.—In a telegram to Governor John M. Parker of Louisiana, Mayor Hylan commended the state executive for his fight against the Ku Klux Klan. The mayor referred to the discovery of the bodies of two supposed Klan victims in Lake La Fourche and characterized the Klan as "a slimy brood of venomous reptiles." His telegram read in part: "Hon. John M. Parker, Governor of Louisiana, Baton Rouge, La.: On behalf of the people of the City of New York and ever other man and woman in this American Republic who are determined that law and order shall be maintained by the duly constituted authorities without interference on the part of a slimy brood of venomous reptiles, squirming in an invisible empire, I most heartily congratulate you on your bold, vigorous fight against the Ku Klux Klan organization. "I believe that every man and woman, regardless of race, creed or color, owes you an undeed debt for your heroic American fight to end the infamous outrages to which the members of the Ku Klux Klan will resort in their nefarious schemes to overawe the courts, seize the reins of government and trample upon the constitutional rights of the people. "Fair-minded Americans acknowledge that there are good and bad in all races and all religious denominations. The thing to do is to get the good people, regardless of race, color or creed, to work together for the peace, unity, and good will and the honor and safety of the most beneficent form of government every bequeathed to man. As a step in this direction we must stand together for the elimination of the outstanding menace in our Republic. You have blazed the trail in the march for the preservation of our dear motherland. All God-fearing Americans who appreciate the priceless heritage of our traditions and institutions cannot fail to be enlisted in this good cause and to form behind you a solid phalanx. "JOHN F.

Walker Wilson Sued By Husband Husband Asks for $25,000.00 in Controversy Over Real Estate Deal New York, Jan. 5.—Dr. W. M.

C. J. Walker, founder of the famous Madame Walker Company of Indianapolis, has endeavored to have returned to her through legal action. The counter claim states that Dr. Wilson wishes to establish a sanitorium in the One Hundred and Thirty-sixth street house and asked that it be turned over to him free or a mortgage of $15,000 and with $10,000 additional to pay for the remodeling necessary. Mrs. Wilson alleged that her husband had purchased the property in his own name with her money and has refused to return either money or property to her. The Wilsons have been separated nearly a year and Mrs. Wilson has spent much of her time abroad. Young Man Cruel To Mother Jailed For the Holidays Columbus, Ohio, Jan. 5.—"A young man who is too lazy to get out of bed and go to work and has the impudence to abuse his poor mother when she tries to get him out of bed in time for work, deserves to spend the holidays in jail where he will probably learn to get up when called," said Judge Seider when he passed sentence of 60 days in jail on Alonzo Harrington last Friday morning. According to the testimony young Harrington was consistently cruel to his mother and sister for trying to get him up in time to go to work. Harrington was charged with beating his mother Mrs. Eliza Malze, when she commanded him to get out of bed and go to work. He admitted to the court that he had not worked since last summer.

Myers and family of Memorial Baptist Church were the recipients of a shower of groceries given by the members of the church, while on December 28th many former members and friends from Zion Baptist Church in Minneapolis tendered him with a neat purse and brought tidings of appreciation for his former services there. PRICE, 5 CENTS TROOP OF CAVALRY PATROLS LA. TOWN DURING THE PROBE TROOP OF CAVALRY PATROLS LA. TOWN DURING THE PROBE State Pushes Investigation of Mysterious Double Murder by Hooded Mob TENSION RUNNING HIGH; MANY ARRESTS EXPECTED Klan Investigators Also at Work —Attorney General Arrives to Conduct Hearing. Bastrop, La., Jan. 5. —Moorehouse parish stalks under the shadow of violence while the state government of Louisiana, aided by the U. S. Department of Justice continued to investigate the "hooded murders" longside the mysterious investigators of the Ku Klux Klan. A troop of cavalry is patrolling this little town where the state started today an open hearing on the brutal double murder of Watt Daniels and Thomas F. Richards of Mer Rouge by a "hooded mob" last August. The cavalry arrived in the early dawn from Jennings, La., as reinforcements for the three other detachments of national guardsmen already patrolling the parish. The feeling of tension which has existed throughout the countryside for weeks was considerably heightened by the arrival of the mounted troops. Rumors fled from lip to lip that their presence meant the launching of sweeping "wholesale arrests" of men connected with the "hooded mob" murders. Federal agents who are gathering evidence in support of the state's case declared there would be no sensational roundup of suspects for the present. Attorney General Coco, heading the state's staff of prosecutors, was expected to arrive at Mer Rouge during the day for a conference of state and federal officials. The disappearance of Harold Teegerstrom, a government witness, was as much of a mystery as when he dropped out of sight after being called to the door of his dwelling in Spyker, a town near here. Federal agents continued to charge he had been kidnapped by Ku Klux Klansmen and spirited out of the state. Investigators employed by the Ku Klux Klan were also reported at work in the parish preparing a defense case for Dr. B. M. McKoin, now held at Baltimore charged with complicity in the "hooded mob" murders. Shipstead Says Time Not Ripe For Third Party Shipstead Says Time Not Ripe For Third Party Washington, Jan. 5. — Political parties that live are born in the heat of the crucible. They spring out of unrest, longings, demands from great bodies of dissatisfied people—when the boiling point is reached. This is the answer of Dr. Henrick Shipstead, Farmer-Labor Senator Elect from Minnesota, to all current rumors that a third party of national proportions is imminent in view of the recent elections. "Until there are issues developed to the boiling point, issues which strike at the welfare of the nation, there can be no so-called third party." Dr. Shipstead told a group of Negroes last Saturday. BUTLER SWORN IN AS SUPREME COURT JUSTICE Washington, Jan. 5.—Pierce Butler, St. Paul, was sworn in as associate justice of the supreme court January 2. Chief Justice Taft administered the oath to Butler immediately after the court convened at noon following a holiday recess. Mrs. Mamie Wilkinson has returned to her home after a pleasant visit with her sisters in St. Louis, Mo. She also visited her parents at Louisville, Ky. Mrs. Wilkinson was highly entertained in St. Louis and Kentucky. She will be pleased to have her friends call at 1306 6th Ave. No., Minneapolis. THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN Entered as second-class matter February 20, 1922, at the postoffice at St. Paul, Minn., under the Act of March 3, 1879. Seeral years ago the St. Paul Association of Commerce adopted a measure designed to protect its members from the onslaught of public solicitors. The measure provided that no member, individual or firm should give to any solicitor for any cause or purpose unless the purpose of such solicitation had the endorsement of the association. Almost immediately after its adoption the good effects of the measure were apparent. Under this cover business men and business houses were no longer obliged to be victims of "the day in day out" army of solicitors who year after year collected hundreds of dollars for both worthy and unworthy purposes and benefits. Colored solicitors have fared extremely well at the hands of white donors but the purpose behind their solicitation has not always been found to be true and sound endangering the faith and confidence in giving for Negro benefit. Only recently the St. Paul Association saw fit to call in an endorsement for the solicitation of thousands of dollars for the establishment of a community center here which, had it become an actual realization would have been an asset to the community. But it failed—the proposition was filled with loop-holes. To retain the confidence of the white man in this matter of solicitation, the people of this community should recognize the opinion of its own business men regarding the advisability of allowing the proper solicitation before the white man is asked to give to it. With this end in view the St. Paul Negro Business League and the St. Paul Association have joined hands to eliminate the evil and promote the good in this solicitation business for the benefit of the community as a whole. The cooperation of these two bodies in this line of public service will surely be beneficial. If nothing else, it means that our own business men and representative citizens in an organized way, may endorse or refuse to endorse any soliciting proposition proposed within our group and have it treated accordingly by the St. Paul Association. If the Ku Klux Klan is responsible for the murders of two men whose bodies were found in the lake at Moorehouse parish, Louisiana, after having been kidnapped and killed as the investigation discloses, Governor John M. Parker is determined that the guilty shall be apprehended, prosecuted and punished. He is bent on dealing a black eye to the Louisiana klan organization. Agents of the state department and Department of Justice are now at work conducting an investigation to ascertain whether or not the klan is responsible for these gruesome murders and the results promise to be one of the most sensational exposes of masked band operation ever unfolded in the south. After reading the story of the whole affair, there is little room for the placing the blame other than with the Ku Klux Klan. The organization stands for such lawlessness and is no doubt responsible for the murders. Every fair-minded, loyal American citizen should support Governor Parker in his fight; it means the preservation of American law and order and the defeat of poisonous klanism. We say, "go to it governor, and get the devils." As mayor of the city of St. Paul, Arthur E. Nelson has proven himself to be a progressive, sound thinking and fair minded official. He has demonstrated that as a public servant his job is to him his best friend and like a particular caretaker is constantly seeking to improve his good office. He has stepped into office and made what seems to be a "powerless" office ring with the cords of authority. He is constantly proposing legislation and measures for a bigger and better St. Paul. We feel certain that Arthur E. Nelson will be successful as mayor of St. Paul and that under his leadership St. Paul will go through one of its most progressive periods. CONTEMPORARIES Service to others is the bed-rock upon which civilization is founded. But service is too often a matter of barter; we do things only because we are paid to do them, and too often lose sight of the great principle back of our social and business relations. The primeval man who helped another slay a deer doubtless expected a division of the carcass. Later, groups of men banded themselves together for individual betterment, but the earliest communities were held together by the bond of service to each other and to the community. The hunter shared his kill with others, while the hewer of wood and drawer of water was as indispensable as the patriarch whose job consisted of directing and overseeing the labor of the others. Love of one's work is comparable with the greatest joy of life. The trouble lies in the fact that too many people drift—that is the only word I can use—into vocations for which they are physically or mentally unsuited. I know a man who received a college education, studied law, and was admitted to the bar, who finds the greatest enjoyment in working at day's labor as a carpenter. He is a splendid carpenter. Jean De Reszke was only a passable baritone until he discovered, almost by accident, that he had been abusing his vocal cords, and developed himself into one of the greatest tenors of our day. There are barbers who would make splendid machinists; there are elevator operators whose opportunities would be great as missionaries of God's word. Some of these days, without doubt, the mental and physical equipment of the adolescent individual will have more attention than at present, with a view of placing the man where he should be. Our educational system, despite the great progress of the last century, has neglected opportunity in this direction. Too often the choice of a life's vocation is a matter given but passing attention. The boy who gets a job as messenger in an office or store almost invariably get an idea that he is anchored to that particular line of industry. And the girls whose first job is delivering hats tries to become a milliner. The high school graduate should be able to choose his or her life with a fair degree of discrimination—and there is little reason why there should not be more high school graduates. The addition of vocational courses in many of our educational institutions makes the choice easier—The Examiner. Page 2 408 Court Block Advertising Rates Furnished on Application.

Call The YALE Wet Wash Laundry Peter Hampden was thirty-five and looked ten years older, for his had been a buy life, from which he had cut out all superfluities like yachting, golfing and marriage. When barely of age he had been known in the street as "the old young man." How a man of thirty-five came to be trustee of a young lady approaching twenty-five was this way. Candice Minturn's grandfather had, by will, appointed Peter's father trustee of the estate of his orphaned granddaughter, with power to appoint his successor, and Peter's father had bequeathed the trust to Peter. After Candice had done with her finishing school Peter had seen a great deal of her, for John Randall and he had many business interests together, and it was with Mr. and Mrs. Randall that Candice made her home, Mrs. Randall being Candice's aunt. In summer Peter was constantly running down to the Randall country place for the week-end, reconciling himself to such an indulgence by the fact that there he could talk shop with John without fear of interference by other business men. But if Peter saw a great deal of Candice he also saw a great deal of a certain antique sideboard he had in his bachelor lodgings. He admired them both and was watchful that nothing untoward happened to either—but to Peter a sideboard was only a sideboard and a girl was only a girl. They were all (except the sideboard) down at the Randall country place on Long Island. The house was full of guests, as usual, for Mrs. Randall was fond of entertaining, and, moreover, was determined that Candice should have an opportunity to select a first-class article in the way of a husband. Candice was horribly hard to suit, her aunt thought, but she nevertheless went on displaying her wares and discourse on the texture and quality of each exhibit like a good "saleslady." She had considerable hope of making a sale this season. Willie Anstruthers and Calvin George were paying fast and furious court to Candice, and for a wonder Candice appeared to be encouraging them. Peter, who had just arrived, was sitting with Mrs. Randall on the plaza when Candice, with a young man in attendance, came strolling from the direction of the lawn. "Who is that with Candice?" asked Peter. "Young Anstruthers," replied Mrs. Randall, "and I do hope she will take him. It's time she got married. If she doesn't take him I think she will choose Calvin George, who is a good match, too. I was beginning to lose all patience with the girl, but of late I have begun to have hopes of her." "Hum-m," said Peter, thoughtfully. Candice in connection with marriage was something new to him—he required time to assimilate the idea. That evening as Peter, having pinned his host into an obscure corner of the plaza, was upon the point of convincing him that an amalgamation of P. Q. & C, with the C. T. & K, would be an excellent and most profitable combination and wouldn't hurt the anti-trust law, Mrs. Randall came and retrieved her husband with: "John, you really must come and speak to the Hetherington—the have just motored over from Glen Cove." Mentally anathemizing the Hetheringtons, Peter sat glooming in the gloom when there appeared to him a graceful, white-robed figure and a pleasant voice that said: "Oh, Mr. Peter, I am so glad to catch you alone. I have been watching for an opportunity to ask your advice." She always called him Mr. Peter. It was a compromise between Peter and Mr. Hampden. "My dear Candice," replied the man of business, "as your trustee, to give you advice is of course my duty—as well as pleasure—yes, pleasure, I am sure. What is it? Your investments are—" "Oh, it isn't money," cried Cadice a trifle petulantly. "It's about—well about getting married." "Mrs. Randall said something on the subject to me this afternoon," replied Peter. "There are two young men under consideration, I understand. The matter is entirely outside my jurisdiction. I am merely trustee of your property. But since you consult me I must say that I don't see why you need be married at all." "But it is rather expected of one— isn't it?" replied Candice demurely. "Well, yes—of women I suppose it is rather expected," admitted Peter reluctantly. "Willie Anstruthers is a very nice young man," ventured Candice. "Humph! Don't fancy him," growled Peter. "And Calvin George is considered a great catch" she went on. "No business ability whatever," said Peter, emphatically. "But of course if you are really in love with either of these young men—but this is entirely outside of my jurisdiction." "But suppose," said Candice, "that I wasn't in love with either of them, but with some one else?" "Oh, in that case—what sort of business man is this other?" "An excellent one," replied Candice, with a little siggle. "And of a suitable age?" "Just ten years older than myself," shyly. "Correct in his habits?" "Oh, remarkably so." "These things are important," went on Peter, "for when my trusteeship terminates your husband would naturally be the one to look after your business matters. He will find everything in order and that your fortune has considerably increased under my care—which reminds me that the time is fast approaching when by the terms of your grandfather's will, I must relinquish the supervision of your affairs." "And you say that my husband would naturally be the person to look after them?" asked Candice. "Yes, when I give them up," replied Peter. "But I don't want you to give them up." "Why?" asked Peter. "You are too stupid for anything," cried Candice angrily as she arose and hurried away. Outside of business Peter could not see an inch beyond his nose—and it was a remarkably short nose, too. Candice's angry parting outburst had left him utterly bewildered—but it set his mind at work thinking of the young lady, her ways, her looks and her mental qualities in an analytical manner which heretofore he had never employed with regard to them. At last he said to himself: "Well, she will be a prize for somebody," and with a sigh arose and went to bed. But his sleep was broken and his dreams were all of Candice. By morning his mind was made up; the true state of his heart had been revealed to him—but he felt like saying all the time: "This is so sudden." And it was. Candice scarcely spoke to him all day; avoided him openly and ostentiously went out for a long morning's walk with Willie Anstruthers. But in the evening Peter caught her alone for a minute and said: "Candice, I would like to continue the management of your estate—as your husband." "Oh, thanks, awfully," replied Candice perly. "But I accepted Willie Anstruthers for the job this morning." At this Peter let himself go. Was he, indeed, too late? All the love and passion which had been lying dormant for years came to life and turned to burning words of pleading upon his lips. "I am afraid," said Candice interrupting him, "that you were a trifle slow at—there is aunt calling me," and she ran swiftly away. Peter strolled moodily out to the grove and there, in the dark shadows of the trees, came across Willie Anstruthers walking pensively. "Mr. Anstruthers," said Peter, "I understand that Miss Minturn has accepted your suit. As her trustee—" "Accepted me!" cried Willie. "The deuce she has! She gave me the mitten without benefit of clergy this forenoon." Peter hurried back to the house and found Candice. "You witch," he whispered, "what do you mean by playing with hearts? Why did you tell me you had accepted Willie Anstruthers?" "Peter," replied Candice with a mischievous smile, "I suppose you are too straightforward a business man ever to have made a wash sale to send up the market?" I think you will agree with Mrs. Randall that it was high time Candice was provided with a husband. BARBERS IN BIBLICAL TIMES Occupation Specifically Mentioned and Otherwise Referred To in Pages of Scripture. The word barber is only once mentioned in the Scriptures, namely, in Ezekiel 5:1, which reads: "And thou, son of man, take thee a sharp knife, take thee a barber's razor, and cause it to pass upon thine head and upon thy beard. . . ." Although barbers are not often expressly mentioned, yet from the constant mention of shaving and the incident of Delilah sending for a man to shave Samson, there can be no doubt that his class existed among the ancients. The Hebrews were particularly careful of their heads and beards, and all seem to have applied the razor except the Nazarites, who were untouched by it from their birth. The Egyptian barbers were called khak or shavers, and they are represented at work in a tomb of Beni-Hassan, of the Twelfth dynasty, holding their razors in the hand, which have a short cylindrical handle, with a broad, flat blade of bronze on a line with the axis of the handle. Added Things. Prosperity, enjoyment, happiness, comfort, peace, whatever be the name by which we designate that state in which life is to our own selves pleasant and delightful, as long as they are sought or prized as things essential, so far they have a tendency to disnoble our nature, and are a sign that we are still in servitude to selfishness. Only when they lie outside us, as ornaments merely to be worn or as ornaments as God pleases—only then may such things be possessed with impunity—Froude. Pigeons Die Where They Roost. "During my 25 years' experience as a steeplejack," an Englishman writes, "climbing city spires and other lofty structures, I have seen hundreds of dead pigeons. They die where they roost, in the belfries, on beams or any projections inside the spires; often on their nests. On each occasion that I have climbed the Nelson column I have found scores of pigeons' skeletons on top behind the capitol."

Harding Asked To Stop Klan Paper New York Mayor Asks Harding Stop Publication From Awakening Race Prejudice. New York, Jan. 5.—President Harding Thursday was requested by Mayor Hylan to stop the publication of Colonel Mayfield's weekly Ku Klux Klan paper published in Texas. The request was made on the ground that the paper was deliberately disseminating race hatred. "There is a blatant display of race hatred and religious prejudice in this paper and considerable misstatements," the mayor wrote the President. "As an example of the latter Mayfield alleges in his newspaper that I have issued orders to the police to shoot klansmen. Such an accusation is both willfully wicked and absurd." Mayor Hylan attacked the Ku Klux Klan and their efforts to "awaken race prejudice," and concludes: "Is it not the duty of federal authorities to check the activities of those who would destroy the peace and happiness and prosperity of the people of this nation. Does there not rest upon them the inexorable duty of repressing every attempt to incite religious prejudice and racial hatred? I respectfully urge that if an examination of a complete file of the issues of Colonel Mayfield's weekly bears out the sinister motives for which this publication is apparently disseminated, official action be taken by the Attorney General and the Postmaster General to suppress the sheet and to proceed against its publisher, Earl B. Mayfield, the Democratic Senator elect of the state of Texas." So mebody Wuz Sayin' that— When "Kid Suspicious" closes "Hotel Green" due to the lack of funds to continue operations in all probability he will return and cultivate his Michigan "lots." Every time "Buddy" Fractions shoots a game of pool, unless he feels like giving something away, the other fellow might as well have his fun and put his hand in his pocket. Delicious salads and well fried spring chicken for a party of twelve is expensive but there's a certain young man to whom the bill for such a feed means nothing in his young life.

The marriage took place on Wednesday, December 27th in Chicago, Illinois. The announcement came as a complete surprise to her many friends. Leaving the city on the 26th to accompany her girlhood friend, Mrs. I. B. Scott, nee Mayme Goins, as far as Chicago, she stole a march on her many friends by becoming the bride of Dr. Wall. During their honeymoon which was spent in Chicago, they were the guests at the Hotel Vincennes. They departed for Louisville, Ky., where Dr. Wall is one of the leading physicians of the city. Mrs. Wall has always made her home here and will be greatly missed by her many friends.

Often when there is a warning seeing of uneasiness in the abdomen, appendicitis can be caused in which exactly the same manner in which one causes the spread of throat infection, because that is just what appendicitis is—an infection in the intestines spreading to the appendix. When one has a sore throat, an infection in the urinary tract, trouble and the development of enza or gripe, by using an antiseptic wash or gargle to fight the poisons from the body. Just exactly the same procedure is necessary to fight the infection in appendicitis. But instead of an antiseptic wash for the throat, an INTESTINAL antiseptic is necessary. **Intestinal Antiseptic** There is now offered to the public a preparation having the DOUBLE action of an intestinal antiseptic and a COMBINED system cleaner.
