AFTER YOU ARE FORTY

Forty years is middle age or should
be. People who squander their youth
are old at forty; everybody needs to
give a little more care to health and
careful living after passing the for
tieth milestone.
The reserve of strength is not what
It used to be. Nature needs a little
help If we are to continue the work
and worry of modern life. To most
people Dr. Williams Pink Pills, nom
alcoholic, but supporting tonic, gives
Just the necessary assistance.
These pills make the thin blood
rich and red. carry nourishment to
weak and infiamed nerves, increase the
appetite and make indigestion nor
NAL, correct sleeplessness and most
forms of headache. Try them for any
trouble caused by thin blood or weak
nerves such as anaemia, rheumatism,
neuralgia, sciatica, lumbago, fndiges-
tion sick headache or st. Vitus' dance.
1t is surprising how many diseases are
due to thin and impure blood, how
quickly they yield when by proper
treatment the blood is built up and
the starved nerves nourished. DR..
williams Pink Pills contain no pois-
onous or habit-forming drugs and can
not do harm.
Pamphlets on the treatment of dis
eases of the blood and nerves will be
sent free by the DR.. Williams Medi-

in the State of Delaware for the pur-

terest of protection to American in

The rally was one of the most en-
thusiastic ever held by the West End
club. Every chair in the big assembly
room was taken and there were quite
a few who could not find seats but
who stood in the rear throughout the
meeting.
Harrie A. Douglas, president of the
club, presided and introduced Augustus
Wildman. candidate for the Assembly
in the city district. Mr.. Wildman
spoke on State and national issues,
saying with respect to his own candi-
dacy that if he had made any mis-
takes during his first term in the
Legislature, they were of the head and
not of the heart" and that If re-
elected he would strive to profit by
the experience CLEANED during his first
session.
Mr.. Wildman recalled the fact that
two years ago he had stood before the
West End club when he and other
speakers warned the voters that If
they put the Democrats into power

on business.
Political conditions in the West End
have changed radically since 1912.
Then the Roosevelt element of the
West End club was almost as great as
the Taft membership and throughout
the district Bull Moose sentiment was
overwhelming. But now all is differ
ent. The railroad men. the shop men
and others there have suffered greatly
as a result of the Democratic expert
menting at Washington and they are
sick of it, Roosevelt personally may
still be popular with some of them,
but they say that he or any other man
would have great difficulty in per-
suading the voters to desert the Re-
publican ticket this year for one that
stands for business depression and
closed mills. Indications are for a
sweeping Republican victory up town
this Fall, according to reports re-
ceived by the active members of the
West End club.

have fallen back in their payments.
They are all good men. They do not
want to do this, but they tell me they
have little or no work and cannot
keep up. Does this indicate anything
to you? Does this spell prosperity
under Democratic rule? And if it
does not. are you going to vote in
November to continue this depres-
sion?"
Mr.. Wildman's speech was well re-
ceived. At the conclusion of the meet
ing James II. Craig, Deputy Secretary
of Internal Affairs, DR.. E. S. Meals
and others made brief addresses.
Congressman Aaron S. Kreider and
Joshua w. Swartz, candidate for AS

for the calamity threatening the world on the grounds that while Ger many was engaged in mediating with Austria-Hungary at Russia's request, Russia, by her general mobilization was threatening Germanys safety
 The first shots in the Russo-German war were exchanged between patrols this afternoon near Prostken, 12O miles to the southeast of Konigsberg. The present position, therefore, is that Russia, France and Servia are arrayed on one side against Austria Hungary and Germany on the ither.
 How long the warfare will be con- fined to this plane 1t is impossible to foreteu: nor can it be foretold wheth- CT Belgium and Holland will be able to maintain their neutrality against their powerful neighbors, or whether Great Britain will find herself com pelled to send an expeditionary force to attempt to preserve that neutrality.
 Anotherfactor, which, as yet, has not been given much consideration, is the attitude of Turkey, which if she has sufficiently recovered from the effects of her late war with italy, may be able to throw considerable weight into the scale It is generally under. stood that Germany has an effective understanding with Turkey which may lead to interesting developments

While Investigating tbe bottom reaches of the Sulphur Springs creek yesterday. about five miles south of the Jim Beattie Ford, Fred Laurit- zen. a rancher in the valley discover ed the body of Harry Wisdom.
 The body was in a fair state of preservation, considering the water buneting it must have met with in its course down the creek in the flood It was brought to the district last night.
 searchers had been up and down the length of the creek for miles be- fore eHher one of the bodies of the drowned men were located. Friday afternoon, late, the remains of Stack were uncovered about three and one half miles below the Ford The search wa sstnl maintained for the remains of the other man.
 This concludes one of the most sem sational drownings of recent years n  Cochise county In fact is has been years since there has been enough water through the Sulphur Springs Creek to effect the footing or either men or animals.
 According to old timers who have lived in the section for years the amount fwater which poured through the creek bed last Wednesday night was unprecedented. The heaviest water came out of the Whitewater but Wisdom and Stack were caught by the flood which came from Dixie auyOu.
 It is supposed that the interment of Harry Wisdom will take place this afternoon. Stack was buried yes. terday.
