It denies all the allegations on the strength of which the plaintiff alleg's improper and unjustified arrest and denies that the plaintiff has been damaged in any sum. It avers on the other hand that the defendant has been caused weeks of worry on account of Coburn's aid and assistance given to J. K. Alexander in concealing the automobile of the defendant.

-Whatever President Coolidge intends to do next year regarding the Republican nomination, a group of his friends, including a cabinet member, a Senator, a governor and several congressmen who were his guests today predicted that he would run if the convention nominates him. They all were convinced that Mr. Coolidge meant exactly, what he said in his statement that "I do not choose to run for President in 1928," but the opinion was held by some of them that the President would be drafted, and they all agreed that if he were, he would run. The group which visited at the summer White House today included Secretary Work, Senator Fess, of Ohio, Governor Fisher, of Pennsylvania, Representative William E. Hull, of Illinois, Knutson and Selvig, of Minnesota, and M.

Amplifying this declaration he said that there possibly would be no concerted effort to nominate Mr. Coolidge but that out of 8 clear sky his name would be proposed and acclamation would result. Senator Fess declared that the President could not decline to run if the nomination were forced upon him, something he held likely.

Mr. Brush, the President's old friend, said this when asked his opinion of the statements: "In twenty-five years I have known Coolidge, he has althe, ways been right." Governor Fisher volunteered that the President, by his statement has not put up a definite bar to being drafted," and Secretary Work declared that no one can foretell "what will happen on March 4, 1929."

There are many ways a baby has of expressing any pain or irregularity or digression from its normal condition of health and happiness. A short sharp cry, a prolonged irritated cry. Restlessness, a constant turning of the head or of whole body, fretful. In these and other ways a baby tells you there is something wrong. Most mothers know that a disordered stomach, or bowels that do not act naturally are the cause of most of baby's sufferings.

A call for the doctor is the first thought, but in the event of any delay there should be ready at hand a safe remedy such as Fletcher's Castoria. Castoria has been used for baby's ailments for over 30 years and has merited the good will of the family physician in a measure not equaled by any other baby's medicine because of its harmlessness and the good results achieved. And remember this: Castoria is essentially a baby's remedy and not a cure-all for every member of the family. What might help you is too often dangerous when given to a babe. To avoid imitations, always look for the signature of Tote here Proven directions on each package.
