QUESTION AND PROMPT
ANSWER OF r. J. M'MAHON.

Never has there been any kind OF
doubt as to how stands our honored
feilow-townsman. Robert J. Mcmahon
Just elected a county commissioner
on the question Of the continued legal
.zed sale Of intoxicating liquors. Mr..
Mcmahon is unalterably opposed to
the business and has not hesitated
20 avow himself; neither before nor
after the election has he been silent
when ne should stand up like the man
I that he is. His position is so well
+ known. indeed, to certain elements
that they never intended he should be
! elected at all. but Independent men
and women Of all parties voted for him
as perhaps for no other man running
on any ticket, and so the saloon ALI
ance. formed with the Democracy. in
gloriously failed of their purpose Of
using McMahon solely as a deodor-
izer for others on the ticket.
Ever since the election as well as
before Mr.. McMahon has gone unob-
trusively on his way but there have
been anxious hours for at least one
of The saloon men ever since the re-
suit became known. And this one
could stand the strain 10 longer when
he saw Mr.. McMahon approaching on
the street q few days ago.
Il understand, Bob" said the saloon
man, that you are after me. and
want to know when you close me UP
VIII you give me another 5ob?'
4 am not after you personally. but
I intend. as soon as possible. TO help
close up your Internal business" said
the commissioner elect, "and if you
viii take your stock in trade and pour
it all into the gutter and close your
doors this morning VIII put you on
my payroll this afternoon. Good
morning"
The duties of county commissioners
are judicial as well as ministerial. to
the extent that they may withhold the
issuance of a license to sell liquor al
though the county in which they serve
shall have voted in favor of such Ii
cense. C. T. Harte. who formerly
served in this office in Lincoln county.
and who was subsequently receiver Of
public moneys at the HALEY land Office
and is now the editor of the Gooding
Leader, was called upon to act just as
Mr. Mcmahon proposes TO act with re-
pect to the same matter in the inter
est Of the general public welfare.
The declared purpose Of the present
is therefore not only jus
titled by precedent but by the faithful
Of his public trust, it is
demanded of him.

Homes OF Women Wrecked
by the Invaders.
Women deserve a better fate.


American women are better off than
their European sisters in most re-
spects. Our American girls, however,
are Of highly nervous organization and
usually suffer from troubles peculiar
to their sex.
When a girl becomes woman,
when a woman becomes mother,
when women pass through the changes
of middle life, are the three periods of
life when health and strength are most
needed to withstand the pain and dis.
tress often caused by severe organic
disturbances
At these critical times women are
best fortified by the use Of DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription, an old remedy
Of proved worth that keeps the entire
female system perfectly regulated and
in excellent condition.
Mothers, If your daughters are weak,
lack ambition, are troubled with head
aches, lassitude and are pale and sick.
ly, DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
is just what they need to surely bring
the bloom of health to their cheeks
and make them strong and healthy.
For all diseases peculiar to woman,
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a
powerful restorative. During the last
40 years it has banished from the
lives Of tens OF thousands of women
the pain, worry, misery and distress
caused by Irregularities and diseases
of feminine character.
If you are sufferer, If your daugh-
ter, mother, sister needs help get DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription in liquid
or tablet form at any medicine deal.

An Easy Way to Get
Fat and Re Strong

The trouble with most. thin folks
who wish to gain weight is that they
insist on drugging their stomach or
stuffing it with greasy foods rubbing
on useless flesh creams" or following
some foolish physical culture stunt,
while the real cause Of thinness goes
untouched. You cannot get fat until
your digestive tract assimilates the
f.od you eat.
Thanks to a remarkable new scien.
tific discovery, 1t is now possible to
combine into simple form the very
elements needed by the digestive or
gans to help them convert food into
rich, fat-laden blood This master
stroke OF modern chemistry is called
Sargol and has been termed the great
est Of flesh builders. Sargol aims
through it's re-generative, RECONSTRUCT
intestines to literally soak up the fat
tening elements Of your food and pass
them into the blood. where thty are
carried to every starved. broken-down
cell and tissue of your body. You can
readily picture the result when this
amazing Transformation has taken
place and you notice how your cheeks
fill out, hollows about your neck,
shoulders and bust disappear and you
take on from 10 to 20 pounds of solid.
healthy flesh. Sargol is absolutely
harmless, inexpensive. efficient. Leo
H. Fihe and other leading druggist of
Richmond and vicinity have it
will refund your money If you are not
satisfied, as per the guarantee found
in every package.
cauton-While Sargol has given ex-
cellent results in overcoming nervous
dyspepsia and general stomach trou-
bles it should not be taken by those
who do not wish to gain ten pounds or
more. Leo H. Fihe, Richmond.-Adv.
