Asks Prison Probe After Husband’s Death

A. D. Swor
Mrs. A. D. Swor
A. D. Swor, prisoner at Enstham prison farm, in the Trinity river
bottoms near Weldon, Texas, complained he could not work because he
was sick. He was lashed by guards on official orders. Two days later he
died. His wife, mother of three little children, left her small home near
Port Arthur to go to prison officials and demand an investigation. Lee
Simmons, manager of the Texas prison system, said that Swor’s death
did not result from whipping. Four prisoners from Eastham are in the
prison hospital now as a result of mutilated feet, inflicted by them-
selves or by fellow prisoners, Simmons says, so that they might escape
work at Eastham, where Captain B. B. Monzingo is ir. charts.
All Puffed Up

Amarillo ' News ’ and Globe, who

gland specialist, who has sued

Howe called him “the world’s

ment was made recently during a
“physical characteristic” contro-
versy Howe had with J. F. Krcigev,
"eSitor.cfi the Gruycr (Texas) News,
in which Krcigev ''called Howe a
* “louzzy jackass and an ignoramus”
and said he was “pot-bellied and
lantern-jawed”; and Howe retali-
ated that Kreiger was a “wind-
blown hippopotamus.” Then, be-
cause Kreiger gave Brinkley some
publicity, Howe made reference to
the Pol Bio physician.

When the
easiest way is the
best way...
There are no two ways about it! Certainly the
easiest way to get the most for every dollar you spend
is to buy products that you know about through the
advertisements in your daily paper. You don’t have
to go out and look for buying opportunities. The ad-
vertisements bring them to you. And all you need do
is consider the facts, compare values and decide on the
soap or the seda nthat best fits your judgment and
your pocketbook.
Certainly the best wa yof making your money go
farthest is to buy merchandise of proved quality. Ad-
vertised merchandise. Merchandise that is bought
and used by many people. Merchandise that must be
superlatively good enough for its maker to keep call-
ing it to the attention of people day after day and year
after year.
This is the service—of convenience and profit—
that the advertisement offer you every day. It will
pay you to read them regularly and take advantage of
everything they car. do for you.

WAKE UP YOUR
I LIVER BILE—
WITHOUT CALOMEL
And You’ll Jump Out of Bed in
the Morning Karin’ to Go
If you feel sour and sunk and the world
^ looks punk, don’t Bwallow a lot of salts,
mineral water, oil, laxative candy or chewing
gum and expect them to make you suddenly
sweet and buoyant and full of sunshiue.
For they can’t do it. They only move the
bowela and a mere movement doesn’t get at
the cause. The reason for your down-and-out
feeling io your liver. It should pour out two
pounds of liquid bile into your bowels daily.
If this bile is not flowing freely, your food
^ doesn’t digest. It just decays in the bowels.
Gas bloats up your stomach. You have a
thick, bad taste and your breath is foul,
skin often breaks out in blemishes. Your head
aches and you feel down and out. Your whole
system is poisoned.
It takes those good, old CARTER’S
LITTLE LIVER PILLS to get these two
pounds of bile flowing freely and make you
feel “up and up.” They contain wonderful,
harmless, gentle vegetable extracts, amazing
when it comes to making the bile flow freely.
But don't ask for liver pills. Ask for Carter’s
Little Liver Pills. Look for the name Carter’s
Little Liver Pills on the red label. Resent a
substitute. 26c at all stem. G1981 C. M. Co*
