Hot weather is doubly dangerous to
a person whose digestion is bad. The
hot sun keeps the body heated and a
decomposing mass Of undigested food
in the stomach will more quickly send
disease-causing impurities through
the blood and poison the entire sys-
tenn. Indigestion, constipation, sick
headache, biliousness, bloating, or
other conditions caused by clogged
bowels yield quickly to Foley Cath

Yavapai Lady for U. s. Senate

Yavapai county is a county where
there is always something extra-ordi-
nary doing. They furnished the first
lady senator in the state legislature
and now Mrs. Ella j. Burns of Pres
colt has announced herself as a candi-
date for the Office of United States
senate, subject to the democratic
primaries. She has made public an
nouncement of the fact of her candi-
dacy in the Prescott Courier, a paper
whose democracy is 1909 acid proof
really 20 twenty per cent more than
necessary.
1t strikes us il Arizona must keep
on having democratic senator's that
we would prefer a woman, one whose
name indicates that she would keep
things warm on every question that
came up. *,
Here seems to be the opportunity
Of life time for the women to get
in and do something for themselves
or for Mrs. Burns. The Courier
vouchsafes the information that Mrs
Burns is bright, talented, well educat-
ed and posted.
Each and every voter has a right to
vote his or her own convictions and il
would seem that the woman voters al
the coming primary election would
take this all into consideration.
