"A Message From Famous Beauty
Specialist to Women Lacking in
r Energy and Vitality.

Thousands Of women vainly attempt
to improve their compilations and to
remove blackheads, crows feet and
other blemshes, through the use of
cosmetics. This treatment fails be-
cause the trouble lies far deeper than
the skin. They are suffering from
impure and impoverished blood This
condition is in many cases due to a
catarrhal condition of the whole sys-
TEN which finds it's expression in sal
low, muddy complexion, dark-circled
eyes, general weakness of the system,
and perhaps most plainly in the weep
ing of mucous membranes that is
commonly called catarrh.
In fact this whole tendency is,
properly speaking, Catarrh. Danish
this catarrh, and the complexion will
clear as if by magic, eyes will bright
en-, faces become rosy and shoulders
erect. Perfect beauty goes only with
perfect health, and perfect health for
women can only be obtained through
one certain treatment-that which will
cure catarrh.
mime. Swift, New York, the famous
beauty specialist known throughout
the world and an accepted authority
on all relating thereto, states that the
one positive and permanent relief for
catarrh is Rexall Mucu-T Tone Here is
her letter:
Il can strongly endorse the claims
made for Rexall Mucu- Tone as a cure
for systemic catarrh. It's tonic effects
are remarkable. 1t builds up the
strength and restores vitality. If
women who are tired and run down.
lacking in energy and vitality, will use
Rexall MucuTone, they will praise as
I do its Strengthening and healing
qualities"
2, Rexall Mucu-Tone works through
the blood, acting thus upon the mu-
cous cells-the congestion and in
fammation of which causes local ca
tarrh. This remedy causes poison to
be expelled from the system, and the
blood Is purified and revitalized. Thus
the natural functions of the mucous
cells are restored, and the membranes
are cleansed and made strong. We
know that Rexau Mucu-T Tone does re-
Heve catarrh. We positively guaran-
tee to refund the money paid us for
this remedy in every case where the
user is dissatisfied. 1t is a builder of
vigorous health and a creator of good
compilations. Price so cents and 81 90
per bottle. Mail orders filled. It may

CLAUD M. ERWIN

The announcement of Hon.
Claud NJ. Erwin of Newport as q
candidate for prosecuting attorney
for this district appears in today's
Journal.
Mr.. Erwin is no stranger to the
people of Independence county,
many of them having formed a
most favorable opinion of him
during the campaign four years
ago when he was candidate for
the position he now seeks.
He comes of one of the best
families of North Arkansas and is
a young man of noble cha racter.
He is a graduate of the st. Louis
Law School, and has been engaged
in the practice of law at Newport
for the past six years, where he
has established an excellent repu-
tation and built up good prac-
tice.
Those who know him best speak
in high terms of him, both as a
citizen and as lawyer, and it is
safe to say that if the people
should see fit to elect him he
would make the district a good
off cial.

party or parties to conduct a sa-
loon in said county; and realizing
that this stand on his part is the
essence of bravery and noble man
hood, and that all good people
everywhere should commend him;
therefore be it
Resolved, by the Sunday School

CHOOSING A CHRISTrIAS GIFT

When you make present of a
periodical to friend or a family
you are really selecting compan-
ion to influence them for good or
i'll during whole year. If the ac-
quaintances of your sons and
daughters were to talk to them
aloud as some periodicals talk to
them silently, how quickly you
would forbid the COMPROMISING!
In the one case as in the other, the
best course is to supplant the in
furious with something equally
attractive and at the same time
worth while. A food can be
wholesome and utterly distasteful.
Reading can be made so, too. But
the Youths Companion not only
nourishes the mind, but delights
it, just like that ideal human asso-
ciate whom you would choose.
The Youths Companion fills that
place now in more than half mil
lion homes. Can you not think of
another family in which it is not
now known where it would be Joy
fully welcomed.

The independent takes pleasure
in noting the endorsement of
Claude NJ. Erwin's candidacy for
prosecuting attorney by the news
papers from other counties of the
district. In Jackson county,
where he was born and raised,
all are his friends, for he has been
a young man of clean-cut charac-
ter, persistent energy and ambi-
ton, and of a pleasant, sociable
turn of disposition that have called
forth the respect, good will, con-
fidence and esteem of the people
to whom he is best known.
From the voters OF jackson, he
will no doubt receive the endorse
ment and support he merits and
there will be no need for any az
peal to home pride and loyalty.
He is a son of prominent fami-
lily and a capable young lawyer,
whose high sense of honor and
duty may be relied upon to insure
in him an officer of zeal and the
strictest integrity.
1t is pleasure to commend him
to such voters as do not know him
this well, and jackson county feels
laudable pride in presenting the
name of this most worthy young

Who Wrote Those Articles ?
Secretary Anderson Of the State A. s. Of e. Be
lieves that Some Of the Purported A. s. of
e Articles Were Mritten by venal Pol
E*@ iticians from Bismarck; Fargo
and Other Places 's1

To the Editor of Ward County lnde-
pendent:
Our attention has been called to
articles that have recently appeared
in several newspapers throughout
the STATE to the effect that the Am
erican Society of Equity is about 10
enter politics, and take a hand in
the coming political campaign. To
refute any such claims and 20 place
the position of the society In the
true light before the public, we re-
produce here the resolu.io ion passed
at the Valley City convention rela-
tive to the matter "a. hand:
Whereas, unscrupulous efforts have
recently been made by persons un-
known to the public to drag our soci-.
e.y into politics; and 80 -.
Y Whereas, more such efforts may
be expected in the future, therefore,
Be it resolved; That we hereby
re-affirm our former declaration not
to en.er political mixups, or take
any part in partisan politics, and
Be it further resolved that the
board of directors be authorized and
instructed to maintain a press bur-
eau, Of which the secretary shall be
member, and that whenever any
articles or statements is to be is
sued for publication in the public
press or other avenues of publicity
the same shall first be passed upon
by said bureau and signed by the
officer there unto duly authorized.
The above resolution was passed
without dissenting vote. In view
Of the action thus '-aken by the dele
gates in convention assembled there
The Ward County independent., 1909-11-11

can be no doubt as to position of the
not be wrecked nthe shoals of
American Socie:y of Equity in regard
to entering political campaigns. Hav-
ing profited by the experience Of
past organizations our members are
determined that their barque shall
politics. The above action of the
convention makes il. impossible for
the officers, be they high or low, or
any member of the A. S. of E. to
take any official action on the part
of the society in reference to politi-
cal preferences. No one need there
fore be alarmed The society in
place Of entering politics is trying
to keep out.
The newspaper articles, concern
ing which there has been so much
controversy, have been signed by no
one; and no one seems to know the
source from which they have come.
Some have been dated from Bis
marck, OtnerS from Fargo, and Stlll
others from no one knows where.
They have presumably been issued
by venal and licenious politicians,
who dare not come ou: in the open
yet who must do something to re-
tain their free transportation on the
railroads. 1t is upon this class of
men that the cure of mankind should
fall. They are the Judases and the
Benedict Arnolds of every organiza-
tion OF every movement consecrat
ed to the uplift of humanity. ,s%
