WHEN BACK ACHES,
WATCH KIDNEYS!
II Neglected Serious Diseases May
Follow.

When the kidneys are clogged up and
inactive. nature always warns you.
Backache Is one of the first symp-
toms. You may also be troubled with
disagreeable, annoying bladder or uf1-
nary disorders; have attacks OF lum-
bago or rheumatism: become nervous.
tired, or feel all worn out; puny swell
ings show under the eyes. or In the
feet and ankles: or the urine becomes
light and pale, dark colored or cloudy.
If such symptoms are neglected. drop
sy, diabetes or Bright's disease. which
SO often prove fatal, may result
It is not only dangerous but needless
for you to suffer and endure the tor
lures Of these troubles, when a little
Croxone will quickly and surely end all
such misery.
There is no more effective remedy
known for the prompt relief and cure
of such troubles, because it cleans out
the clogged up kidneys and makes them
work properly. It soaks right in
through the walls and Innings: cleans
out the little fltering cells and glands:
neutralizes and dissolves the poisonous
uric acid and waste matter, and makes
the kidneys filter and sift the poisons
from the blood and drive it out of the
system.
This new, scientific preparation, IL
entirely different from other remedies.
It is SO quick-acting and effective that
it is practically impossible to take It
without results.
An original package costs but a trifie.
and all druggists are authorized to re-
turn the purchase price If Croxone
should fail in q single case.
Three doses day. for q few days, -
often all that is ever needed to end the
worst backache; relieve rheumatic pains
or overcome sleep disturbing urinary
disorders-Adv.

Expecting to save $1,387.2O on the
states sugar bill after March 1. the
board of control will this month make
but a three months sugar purchase at
its semi-annual letting. After March
1, the board was advised, the state
would be able to save "a cents a hum
dred pounds on sugar because OF the
new tarif schedule.
1t requires 100000 pounds Of sugar
to run the state institutions each year.
One-half of this sugar IL bought at
the June contract letting and the sec
ond consignment Is purchased in De-
cember. Bids for December called for
the purchase of 100000 pounds of SUI
gar. But after an investigation of the
tariff schedules and advice from
wholesalers that "a cents q hundred
pounds would be saved on sugar after
March 1. the board OF control decided
to buy but enough sugar this month
to supply the institutions until the
new tariff rates become operative.

A we'll known man arrived in Doug las yesterday directly from Empslme. who. e name cannot be givs D for ob- yious reasons. asked as to the actual status Of affsirs in the war zone, he said:
 'The constitutionalists have done some brilliant work in the f Id be- tseen Ortiz and Gusymss, but the ac- tusl truth of the matter is thst today they ere very short of ammunition and arms ct all their campo abou, Empslme and Gusymas The feder- ais have received some reiuforcements and are expecting more It is my opinion if the cons,itutionalists do not take Gusymss by the 18th, they will never take it, ss more reinforcements are due to arrive for the 'ederals by that time. The constitutionalists have never had any foothold in Gusy~ mas. They have been doing all their fighting from the outlying hills.

A Trio of Daring
 Life Savers

While we are delighted over oc- casional heroism, the PRosPEcToR can not forego its meritorious record of telling the truth, jnst as facts come to us, although the gentle and in- vigorating precipitstions sometimes prey upon the otherwise good tempers of those who do no. court trouble and sbhor vicissitudes. But it some. times happens too that the most plastic temper, and this is why we mention the dilemma of three promi~ uens families Of Tombstone who found themselves msrooned in the turbulent San Pedro river yesterday, resulting IT m generous rain and poor judgment as to height of water and capacity of autos. They were Coun- ty Assessor Ed Hughes and family. Assistant County Assessor H 8 Ross and the popular Bill Fowler. than whom none other is more incapsci- tsted Tor swimming lowing to his svordupois) The party was returning from an outing at FCrt Huschuca. and not knowing that the placid and sometimes treacherous stream, like some persons-had taken on more than usual. wsded their machines boldly into mid-ocesn and became stuck fast. They were there. but not long, for the three daring stslwsrts assumed all the courage in store. doffed their stockings and vsliantly made for terra frma, drawing the machines after them. It required courage, and the PRosPECToR feels th.i ii is csiied upon 10 extend con-. gratulstions, Some more Carnegie medals will be forthcoming when the Laid reads these few lines Of com. mendstion of daring and self preserve stion.

A Prophets s Vision
 Fully Realized

"The rainy season is onl" and
 benign smile o'erspresds the pbiz c
 the local weather prophet Tn, dsmpness had proceeded the prophet
 gladso me t:ding. we were being soaked in sgus pura-nans from the hesv. eus-And not one in Tombst Ds sought e shield against s downponi that cleanses and purifes. IL va, looked for and prayed for by the pop. u'ace several minutes before the sup' plication sss answered. but now that our desires avail it must be stated how it happened.
 To be correct and not misleading, a generally bright sky was overwhelmed by . portentious cloud; amid the for. bidding overhsnging elements c bonn hsrdDent of the celestial elenent claimed the attention of the infini- tesmal on this stool; panoramic display Of pyrotechnic wonder illumins sted the heavens; tue gigantic noun. tain ranges surrounding Tombstone served as . silhouette of the fascinat- ing panorama indisc.!hsbly staged !; the electrical demonstration being bey ond the power of the artist or the description of the pen. It was the only realistic chow ths, we nave had for some time, and the audience is of one opinion ihs. we will appreciate smother, and another of the same kind.
 This heavenly disturbance occurred Saturday night about II o'clock, and DO one regrets it. The wind blew at about 60 miles per hour, tbunders rolled and roared as per will, while the lightning flashed vivijly and then flashed some more. As an ipterlude the murky overbangings were drawn aside by the Stage Manager and then something hsppened-it rsined. and it hailed slso, great big bsil.stopes that knocked the little birds from their perches and ceased their wsrbl- ings forever. The rain by itself was most welcome visitation, but when accompanied by a fussiisde of hail. stones that deprives us of our morn ing chirrups that bid go on and CD. and sleep and sleep, we feel chsgrin. ed But when the relentless hail. stones descend upon our orchsrd and snnihilate the fruit, when they invade the magnificent gardens of Tomb stone and devastste the truck that we are won't to satisfy craving sppEtite with-well. then we become some- what rebt ilious, bus nevertheless we bow in humble submission and agree with our weather prophet that II rained. hoping that the supply may not be cut of soon.

To Refer County Seat
 Removal Bill to Voters

Directing a campaign of preparing referendum petitions to refer to the vote of the people the county seat re- movsl bill passed by the state legis- lature, A H Gardner. @ business man of Tombstone, and formerly clerk of the district court there. is in Tucson and will likely remain for several days. He is in charge of the peii. tions which are being circulated in Tucson and nearby towns. Objec- tionable features. the ssult, he says |, of the haste in which the bill was pre- pared, are the reason why Tombstone people are seeking to bring about the referendum of the county seat remov- al measure,
 "This campaign follows the moye- ment 10 refer the county seat division bill, (S. B. 49), which vas taken up by the residents of Coco nino county" be ssid. "fbeir campaign for sigma lures to the referendum petition re- suited in 209l sigpers obtained in six days, nearly twice the number Of signatures required by law
 "Our objection to the county seat bill is that it was GO loosely drawn as to make 1t possible for any land speculator not a tax payer, to work up c special election for the removal of a county seat to some spot which is favored. All be would have Co do would be to get 6 certain number of signers to his petition. IL would tn, be mandatory upon the board of su- pervisors to call the election. II three towns are competing and the election results in no majority, sn- other election must be held. Suppos ing that 6 town does receive e major ity, the board of supervisors must choose . site for the building. Then after that is all done, possibly at the instance of e speculator and non tax payer, the taxpayers themselve' must participate in an election to deoide whether or not bonds are to be voted for the erection of the new cour, house. The whole project may fall flat there, after sll the previous ex- pense of election has been incurred {, for the tax payers of a given com munity may be sverse, especially in view of the present uncertainty re- ga,ding the tax rate for the yesrs l914-l5-l6, to voting any hsavy bond issue.
 "These are the vital flaws of the county seat removal bill. We want the measure redrswn in such way ss to protect the tax payer and elimin~ ate the speculative interest.
