RUDE AWAKENING FOR ELIZA
Too Late She Discovered That Visitor
Was Not the Object Of Her
Alteration.

The gentle Eliza was sitting drearily
In the darkened room, waiting m!ser-
ably for a visitor, whom she feared
would never come. To tell the truth,
Eliza and William had quarreled bit
terly the night before. But what is
that? A ring, a step, a masculine
voice. She waited not, but threw her
self into the visitors arms
"Oh, my darling!" she sobbed, with
her head upon his bosom. Il am SO
glad you have called. l did so long
to make up and do my best to pay
you for bringing light into my life.

with each other"
We'll, miss" said a strange voice,

structions is that If you don't I'm to

A trial package of Munyon's Paw Paw
Pills Will be sent free to anyone on re-
quest. Address Professor Munyon, SD d

in need Of medical advice, do not fail to
write Professor Munyon. Your communi-
cation Will be treated in strict confidence,
and your case will be diagnosed as care
fully as though you had a personal inter
view
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are unlike
all other laXatyes or cathartics. They
coax the liver into activity by gentle
methods. They do not scour. they do
not grippe, they do not weaken, but they
do start all the secretions of the liver
and stomach in way that soon puts
these organs in healthy condition and
corrects constipation. In my opinion
constipation is responsible for most all
ments. There are % feet of human
bowels, which IS really a sewer pipe.
When this pipe becomes clogged the
whole system becomes poisoned, caus-
ing bilousness, Indigestion and impure
blood, which often produce rheumatism
and kidney ailments. No woman who
suffers with constipation or any liver
ailment can expect to have clear
complexion or enjoy good health. Ii
| had my way | would prohibit the sale
OF nine-tenths of the cathartics that ara
now being sold for the reason that they
soon destroy the lining of the stomach,
setting up serious forms of Indigestion,
and so paralyze the bowels that they re-
fuse to act unless forced by strong
purgatiyes.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are a tonic
to the stomach, liver and nerves. They
invigorate instead of weaken; they ep-
rich the blood instead of impoveTish
it: they enable the stomach to yet all
the nourishnent from food that is put
into it.
These pills contain no calomel, no
dope; they are soothing, healing and
stimulating. They school the bowels
to act without p1ysic.

president. It is pretty well known in Washington among the newspap- CT correspondents that President Taft will never approve Arizona's constitution as t is now, containing the recall of the judiciary.
 If this is a correct estimate of what the president will do with our constitution then there is only one remaining chance to secure state hood and that is to vote down the constitution so that the delegates may be reconvened. as provided in the enabling act, and the objection able features eliminated from the constitution for the present. After admission has been secured then the people will have the right to add whatever they desire to the con stitution in the way of an amend ment.

THE GAZETTE IS
 EVIDENTLY ALARMED.

The Arizona Gazette is showing signs of alarm about what is very likely to happen to the Arizona con lstitution when it reaches Washing ton where it must be approved by both the president and congress. It is now calling for volunteers to go to Washington after the constitution has been ratified by the people of Arizona to plead with President Taft to give it his approval. Since the |constitutionai convention adjourned the Gazette has been making the bold assertation that President Taft would not dare to disapprove the constitution. Evidently the Gazette has information from some source that dangers await the Arizona con- stitution and statehood in Washing ton. If statehood be lost under the enabling act the Gazette will be largely the cause of it and we arc not surprised that it is now waking |up to the real situation. The Gag cite has refused to listen to reason ever since the constitutional conven- ton convened in Phoenix and advised that the radical majority should go the limit in flying in the face of the president and refusing to listen to good counsel from any source
 Of course every citizen in Arizona who Is really desirous of statehood will desire that President Taft and congress will approve the constitu- ton as completed and it will be highly proper for a committee to go to Washington, though according to the Gazette and George Hunt such an expense would be entirely unnec- essary

 CASE BEFORE COURT
SUPREME TRIBUNAL HAS M PORTANT APPEAL FROM COL
 oRADo UNDER REVIEW


 WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 23.- Not the least interesting among the many important cases that have come before the Supreme Court of the United States at this session is the socalled Fred Light case, which came up for argument before the highest tribunal today on an appeal from the United States district court of Colorado. The case involves the broad question of States rights with especial reference to the con. serYation policies inaugurased by the Roosevelt administration.
 The case has been in the courts for more than three years, Fred Light, a stockmen of Pitkfn county Colorado, allowed several hundred head of his cattle to stray into States forest service. Despite Lights claim that the formation of the reserve without the consent of the state was in violation of the Federal Consti. tuition and that action for trespass could not be maintained under the Colorado laws unless the land in question had been fenced, Judges Lewis of the circuit court of the United States for the district oi Colorado sustained the forest service and fined Light. The case was then appealed to the Supreme Court oi the United States.
 The State of Colorado has joined in the fight against the Federal gov ernment in an effort to have the ac- tion of the United States in creating the big forest reservations of the West declared unconstitutional. The s.ate las apDro Jiated s29.00O fcr the expenses of the case and has sent Attorney General John T. Bar. rett to conduct the argument before the court.
