Birchett had been suggested because he was a warm prohibition man, and that the only objection to MT Fogal was that he was supposed to be friend ly to the liquor traffic They urged that whatever MT, Fogal might be, he was a fair man
 On this representation the. board was disposed to reinstate MT Fogal, but there was q question whether it could be done inasmuch as the cleo tion notice had already been pub lished.
 On this point the assistant district attorney cleared the situation by say ing that the board had been without power to create a vacancy to be filled by MT. Birchett and that therefore Mir Fogal was as he had been from the time of his appointment as a member of the election board.
 It was stated yesterday by member effort would be made to retaTAOIN of the anti-saloon league that an eff fort would be made to retain MT. Bir- chett on the board by virtue of the election notice. But it is not likely that will be done for that would bring the validity os the election into ques- tion. the very thing that the prohibition people can not affort in any event

TEMPE ELECTION BOARD
 MUDDLE ABOUT TO CLEAR
The Probable Restoration Of Frank
 Foeal as Judge.

Frank Fogal is to be restored to his place as judge on the election board of precinct No. ? in the Tempe local option election. That was decided yes terday by the board of supervisors on the advice of Assistant District Attor- ney Lyman that the board was without power to make any change after the board had been selected, except in the case of vacancy or the inability of an appointee to serve. The opinion has not yet been written but it will prob ably be submitted to the board to- day.
 A few days after the appointments were made by the board, there having been no solicitation by any one for the place or no objection to any pros pective appointee, q delegation of Tempe citizens asked the board to sub stitute ]. T. Birchett for Mir. Fogal As that was the first expression that had been had from Tempe on the sub ject of the election board the request was acceded to.
 Then came the protest from the friends of MT. Fogal. who objected to his displacement mainly on the ground that il would be more or less of a re- flection upon him. They said that Mir.

In former days it was always at the end of the London season that one heard tidings of interesting" engage ments, but now it seems as if this. like 90 many other customs. has changed for autumn and winter appear to be the time when young mems fancies turn to thoughts of love much more than in the season itself
 This bears out a pet theory of mine that young peope see a great deal more of each other during a country house visit of four or five days than they do at all the balls of a London season put together. Therefore to mothers who wish to get their daughters what early Victorian writers called "an es- tablishment" l strongly recommend q course of country house visiting. which possesses the additional advantage over town meetings of making young people less artificial and more natural The Gentlewoman.

One Million Dollars
 For a Good Stomach
This Offer Should Be Warning to Every Man
 and Woman

The newspapers and medical journals have had much to say relative to a famous millionaire's offer of a million dollars for a new stomach.
 This great multi millionaire was too busy to worry about the condition of his stomach. He allowed his dyspepsia to run from bad to worse until in the end it became incurable. His misfortune should serve as a warning to others. Everyone who suffers with dyspepsia for few years will give everything he owns for a new stomach.
 Dyspepsia is caused by an abnormal state of the gastric juices. There is one element missing-Pepsin. The ab- sence of this destroys the function of the gastric fluids. They lose their power to digest food.
 We are now able to supply the pep sin in a form almost identical to that naturally created by the system when in normal health, so that it restores to the gastric juices their digestive power, and thus makes the stomach strong and well.
 We want every one troubled with indigestion and dyspepsia to come to our store and obtain a box of Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets. They contain Bis muth-Subnitrate and Pepsin prepared by a process which develops their greatest power to overcome digestive disturbance.
 Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are very pleasant to take. They soothe the ir- ritable. weak stomach. strengthen and invigorate the digestive organs. relieve nausea and indigestion, promote nutfi- tion and bring about a feeling of com fort.
 If you give ReXall Dyspepsia Tablets a reasonable trial we will return your money if you are not satisfied with the result Three sizes, 25 cents. 50 cents and $1.00. Remember you can obtain Rexall Remedies in Phoenix only at our store,-The Owl Pharmacy. Andrew H. Miller. Mgr, cor. 1st Ave. and Adams St

worse. After using several dollars worth of this salve l tried several other rem edies but 10 no avail. The neighbors advised using sulphur and lard but 1t was all fruitless.
 A few months afterwards I saw an advertisement in a newspaper of the Cuticura Remedies. 1 at once sent of for some Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint- ment and Cuticura Resolvent Pills, but thinking they would be no better than the otlIer remedies. But to my sur prise after the first order was used the scales disappeared and the itching ceased and after using another order of the Cuticura Remedies was completely cured, after suffering for nearly two yeors l shall be glad to write to any one who may be interested in my cure.

An Effort to Rid the Town of Dissolute
 Females.

Globe. Nov. 23.-As a result of tn, moral crusade" which has been start ed in this city, twenty-two women oi the half world were arrested today or vagrancy charges. The complaints were filed by people who own proper ty near the restricted district The settlement has secured attorneys to assist in the fight and it is declared by them that the prosecution will not stop until the last woman has been forced out of the district
 The bail of the women was fixed a; $100 each and as only a few could fur nish the necessary money. the bulk of the prisoners went to jail. As the women's quarters are inadequate at the present county bastile. the pris- oners were herded in like sheep. To- night they are sleeping on cots in the corridors and wherever hunks can be provided for them.
 The women threaten to make the county keep them until the cases are settled, as they hope to stop the prose cution by reason of the fact that the county cannot properly keep them prisoners
