For Those Who Suffer Pain
in Stomach, Back or

(By Samuel Hamilton, MIDI

(By Samuel Hamilton, M.D)
In recent years investigation by
means of X-rays, the observations OF
scientists such as Cannon, Grutzner,
Pavloy, Fowler, Hawk, prove that an
abundance of water is necessary in
good bodily housekeeping. To drink
a pint Of hot water before meals is
good practice, and those suffering
from a catarrhal condition of the
stomach will find benefit in adding
about 10 grains (one-sixth Of level
teaspoonful) of baking-soda, drinking
it an hour before each meal.
If your kidneys are sick, or you suf-
fer with lumbago or rheumatism at
times, pain in the back or back of the
neck take little Anuric before
meals. Anuric double strength) can

the Surgical Institute in Buffalo, N. Y.
When rundown, when life indoors

dition under the eyes. Backache, fire.

DAYS OF EXTRAVAGANT DRESS
Empress Eugene, Who Boosted She
Never Wore the Same Costume
Twice, Has Many lmitators.

It Is true that the cost of woman's
dress has so increased that it is not
given to the many to be as truly ele-
CANT as their grandmothers were able
to be at comparatively small cost. But
then, those were the days when an
elaborate ball gown consisted Of yards
Of flounces Of tarlatan or some other
light and uncostly material.
Empress Eugene, it is said, never
wore the same gown twice. She it was,
by the way, who made Worth, the re-
nowned Paris couturier, famous. The
great luxury in those days was to wear
several ball gowns during the course
Of single ball. Dressing rooms were
provided and the ladies retired, to re-
appear resplendent and as fresh as at
the beginning of the evening. The
gowns Of the day, which were f1imsy Of
train, and spread by crinolines, suffer
ed much from an evenings wear ;
hence these wasteful ways.
There Is tale of the lovely Empress
Elizabeth of Austria which recounts
her appearing at function in white
tulle gown, flounced and ample, deco
rated with garlands of real camellias,
and changing both gown and camellias
every now and then, to preserve the
impression of absolute and uncrumpled
freshness.-VOgue Magazine.

Abolish Titles.

While Russia is clearing out its
royal titles, and while we believe
Germany may eventually do like
wise, it is to be hoped, says Mr..
Fox in the Albuquerque Journal,
that democratic England will put
an end to it's feudal nobility and
it's hereditary lords. They be-
long to centuries ago, and have
no place in modern life.
When the fathers started off
this nation they set the style for
the American continent, and it
should be the style for the world.
The nobility" here are those
who show themselves noble, and
the necessity of tagging them is
not seen. In this way seedy and
degenerate sons do not go about
dragging titles that fit them hu-
morousIy. Class feeling is also
avoided, but there are those who
are trying to force it upon US
through economic politics, but it
is hard to make it stick. One
American feels that he is as good
as another, sometimes a little
better, and we all feel that we
are getting along quite we'll
without titles. Of course, we
don't count our crop of colonels.
They are created by appointment
on governors stats and are bre-
veted by the public thought that
if certain men never have had a
commission they would feel
happier with them. Hence, the
title is conferred without cere-
mony.
If the kings of Europe are
going into the discard, the counts,
lords, barons and w h a t n o S
should all go along, too. There
are no hereditary classes, in fact,
for the noble" of one age is
more than likely to have a pro-
found ass for a son or grandson.
! Then the title becomes joke.
The Winslow mail., 1917-05-04

1t is hardly in keeping with
the American spirit for Congress
to pass the proposed espionage
bill that has for its real purpose
the establishing of a press Gen.
sorship. Newspaper men as a
body are just as loyal and patri-
otic as any class of citizens, and
the passage of a press censor
bill is in effect putting upon
them the brand of Cain. If this
is a just and holy war, as it is
claimed, and everybody gives of
his time and service for it's sue
cessful prosecution, and none
there are who will use the oppor-
tunity to enrich themselves by
specializing in foodstuffs, or ex-
plot the government on army
contracts, then there is no occa-
sion for a press censorship. If
any newspaper so far forgets its
patriotic duty as to expose the
hand of the government in any
of it's secret war manuevers or
preparations, there is abundant
law now in the federal statutes
to punish such a violation. Es-
pionage savors too much of the
despotism of the European mon
arches.

BABIES MUST BE M0THEREl
Have Natural Desire, Which, Not Be-
Ing Gratified, Has Been Known
to Cause Death.

In discussing measures directed to-
ward the prevention of infant mortal
ity, DR.. S. G. Moore Of Huddersf1eld,
England, a specialist in hygiene and
sanitation, told the Royal College Of
Physicians in London of a poor mother
who was taken with her triplets to a
hospital, where the babies died one
after another. The mother never took
any interest in the babies, showed no
anxiety about them, nor even grieved
at their death, which led Doctor Moore
to the following comment:
"When, Notwithstanding everything
that was being done, the last baby
seemed likely to die, said to the
nurse: Whatever is the matter? How
is 1t that nothing seems to answer? !?
In manner which showed that she
had solved the problem, she replied: {:
The child has never been mothered.
and babies need mothering'
II had frequently heard similar ex-
pressions of opinion, but there was
something in the circumstances, or
perhaps in the tones of the nurses
voice or in her manner which caused
me to realize as I had not formerly
done the Importance and significance
of what the nurse called 'mothering.'
No doubt robust infants can survive
in it's absence, but, on the other hand,
it is well to recognize the fact that
there is an inherent instinct and appe-
tite in the young mammal to huddle
and nestle against the mothers body
and to receive warmth and nouriSh-
ment therefrom.
"This experience has led me to be-
lieve that in all cases these things are
necessary for the well-being of infants,
and that there may be certain cases
where the lack of them determines the
balance against the infant, even to the
extent of causing it's DEATH"
The Winslow mail., 1917-05-04

The army conscription bill,
slightly modified in minor fea-
lures, has been passed by both
the House and Senate, and has
now gone to a conference for
final agreement. 1t is expected
it will be agreed to before the
end of the week, and as soon
thereafter as possible the selec-
tive draft will be put in operation
by the war department to raise
an armed force of a million men.
The bill has been bitterly fought
by coterie of Congressmen who
have all along opposed the policy
of the administration regarding
the entrance of this country into
war, but the bill in fact is SIM
ply a measure to enforce military
training in this country.
The Winslow mail., 1917-05-04

The operation of the constitu-
ton of the United States is not
suspended even in the event of
war, and one of it's direct provi-
sions is that no law shall be
enacted abridging the rights of
free speech and a free press.
Members of Congress should fa-
miliarize themselves with the
constitution, and then have the
manhood and courage to vote
against any measure violating its
provisions.
The Winslow mail., 1917-05-04

Even with the passage of the
conscription bill there is no valid
reason why President Wilson
should not issue a call for volun-
teers. Here in Arizona where
the First Regiment is having a
hard time getting recruits enough
to fill it's ranks to war strength,
if a call for volunteers was made
to form new regiment, officer
ed with our own citizens, more
men would offer their services
than could be enlisted. There is
a difference between joining the
regular army or enlisting in the
volunteers. In the regular army
the officers have already been
selected by the government, and
the recruits are assigned to suit
the pleasure and convenience of
the department officers. In a
volunteer regiment the men elect
their own company officers, and
through them they select their
regimental officers, and there is
comradership established at
once, and every soldier has an
ambition and pride to make his
regiment the best in the service.
This spirit is lacking where in
dividual enlistments are assigned
to the regular army. President
Wilson should issue a call for
500, 900 volunteers, and then he
will discover that his greatest
task will be to get his commissary
department in working order to
care for the men who will re-
spond to the call.
