“Old Hen” a Brew with a Kick in It.
Media, Pa., July 21.—“0Old Hen,” a
new liquid refreshment, with a kick
of a mule, was tested out Saturday
by the inventors, who had surrepti-
tiously established their clandestine
distillery in a vacant barn near Rock-
dale. The decoction was labeled “Old
Hen” because it required twenty-one
days for the mixture to hatch. But
the period of incubation was too slow
for the thirsty experimenters, and on
the tenth day, which was Saturday,
they proceeded to sample the drink.
The bibulous chemists grew hilar-
ious from quaffing the brew, and at-
tracted the owner of the barn, who,
armed with a stout broom, entered
the distillery and made a clean sweep
of the mixers of “Old Hen.”
The ingredients of the new mixture
are said to be cornmeal, molasses,
brown sugar and water, and if the
maker cannot wait twenty-one days,
ten days is enough to produce a kick
—at least kick enough to get kicked
out of the barn.
How Foolish 1
Some people continue wrapped up
in themselves even during the hottest
weather.
Medical.
Housework is hard enough when
healthy. Every Bellefonte woman
who is having backache, blue and
nervous spells, dizzy headaches and
kidney or bladder troubles, should be
glad to heed this Bellefonte woman's
experience:
Mrs. Sara Miller, 108 Curtin St.,
says: “My kidneys were weak and I
had dizzy spells and headaches. At
times there were black spots before
my eyes. I didn’t know what was
wrong until some one told me the
trouble came from my kidneys. I had
pains in my back and suffered for a
long time in this way. Sometimes a
dull ache bothered me and then again,
if T bent over or did any heavy lifting,
it was a sharp pain. When I sat
down, I couldn’t get up without help.
I also suffered from rheumatic pains.
I began taking Doan’s. Kidney Pills
and after using two boxes, the rheu-
matic pains left me and the trouble
from my kidneys was removed.”
(Statement given April 21, 1914).
On October 18, 1918, Mrs. Miller
said: “I very gladly confirm my rec-
ommendation for Doan’s Kidney
Pills, which I gave four years ago.
I have had no trouble since then.”

Washington, July 22.—The prohi-
bitional enforcement bill, as it passed

the commissioners of internal reve-
nue. (This applies to chemists, phy-
sicians, ete).
After February 1, 1920:
The possession of any liquor, other
than as authorized by law, shall be
prima facie evidence that it is being
kept for sale or otherwise in viola-
tion of the law.
It will not be requred, however, to
report, and it will not be illegal to
have in one’s possession, liquor in a
private dwelling while the same is oc-
cupied and used by the possessor as
his private dwelling, and the liquor is
used for personal consumption by the
owner, his family or his guests.
Possession of such liquors, how-
ever, bears the burden of proof that
the liquor was acquired and is pos-
sessed lawfully.
Intoxicating liquor is defined as a
beverage containing more than one
half per cent, alcohol.
No person shall manufacture, sell,
barter, give away, transport, import,
export, deliver, furnish or receive any
intoxicating liquors.
Liquor for non-beverage purposes,
and wine for sacramental use may
be sold under specified regulations.
Denatured alcohol, medicinal prep-
arations (including patent medicines)
unfit for beverage purposes, toilet ar-
ticles, flavoring extracts and vinegar
are exempted.
Registered physicians are author-
ized to issue prescriptions under
strict regulations for the use of lig--
uor in cases where it may be consid-
ered necessary as a medicine.
Liquor advertisements of all kinds
are prohibited.
Sale, manufacture or distribution of
compounds intended for use in the
unlawful manufacture of liquor is
prohibited, together with sale or pub-
lication of recipes for home manufac-
ture.
Broad powers are given under the
search and seizure section to officers
charged with enforcement of the law.
They may enter a dwelling house in
which liquor is sold and Seize it, to-
gether with implements of manufac-
ture.
For first offense violators the maxi-
mum fine is $1000 or six months im-
prisonment and for subsequent of-
fenses fines ranging from $200 to
$2000 or one month to five years in
prison.
