your system Of every impurity,
revitalize your blood, improve
your appetite, and build up
and add new strength and life

Fun Blast.

SAPrLPA, Okla, March II. --
Charged with being keepers Of houses
of fame, five women appeared be-
fore Justice curt Edgcrton today and
gave bonds In the sum of $500 each
for their appearance before the county
court next Monday morning. Their
arrests marked the first step Of Shcr-
iff John Woofter and County Attorney
Earl Foster to drive buwdy houses out
Of Creek county.
The women were arrested last night
after the sheriff and squadron Of
deputies had visited the places but
were not locked up. They appeared
at the courthouse this afternoon.
Both the county attorney and sher-
IF were vehement in their remarks
that bawdy houses must close at once
in every section of Creek county and
declared they would keep after the
denHens until they had been driven
out.
"lf they are not closed at once I'll
slap an injunction on every door and
paddock Them" declared the county
attorney.

PurlfyYour Blood an1Pu1
YourseIfin Good Shape

The necessity of being pre-
pared for any emergency is be-
ing forcibly impressed upon
each and every individual.
First and foremost is the inn
portance of having a sound
physical body, of keeping
yourself in prime condition al
ways, so as to be at all times
equipped to fight an enemy
that is ever threatening-the
enemy of Ill Health.
This means that every as
sistance must be given to ma
ture in her effort to combat
disease and keep the system
in proper condition. And right
now, as Spring approaches,
nature needs more help than
ever, for the system needs a
thorough housecleaning to get
rid of the accumulated i'm
purities and thus avoid the
dangerous feverS that are SO
prevalent in Spring and Sum-
mer.
You have doubtless felt the
need of a good tonic, though
you may not have recognized
the call that nature was max
ing in the form of loss Of APP
petite, lassitude, energy gone,
and a general "good-for-noth-
ing feeling that pervades
your whole body. Such symp-
toms mean that the blood has
become sluggish, that the ac-
cumulated impurities are clog
ging the circulation, and that
a general impairment of your
health is imminent unless the
proper corrective steps are
promptly taken.
There is absolutely no ne
cessity for permitting the
change Of seasons to cause this
rundown condition of your sys-
TEN, for there is a remedy
easily within your reach, one

All, MEN OF MILITARY AGE.

With the extenuation of the Selec-
tive Service Law whereby all who
registered on June last must now
fill out questionnaires there will come
a. realization of the vast respons1b1l1-
ties resting on the people of the Union
There were ten million men con-
cerned in the Draft. One million, In
round numbers, were selected, and
called to the colors. They are now in
the various military training camps
scattered throughout the country. The
other nine million were not called. aud
have been left to pursue the even ten
or of their former ways.
Now, however, these remaining nine
million men, all between the ages Of
twenty-one and thirty-one, are asked
to set down their qualifications. Some
of these men have been called before
the various exemption boards anu
have been rejected as unfit,-physi-
cally. Mentally they were all right
They could probably WELD a pen or
use a typewriter, or be of use in some
other walk of life save the military.
And that is what Uncle Sam, wants to
know. He wants to get hold of these
young fellows, who: not being of use
in the ranks'of the army, can be mus
tered into the ranks of the army be
hind the lines, the army behind the
army.
There are more ways than one
whereby men of military age can do
their bit. Shoulder guns is not the
only occupation to which they can be
put. There is bookkeeping to be
done in the army as we'll as in bust
ness. There is cooking to be done.
There Is music to be furnished to the
soldiers in the ranks. So even men
who can play the various instruments
of music are wanted, and may. be
called under the new order. The plan
has been thoroughly worked out. When
the young men receive their ques-
tionnaires they will be surprised at the
number of pertinent questions asked,
and which they will be required to an
swer under oath. The things to be
done in this war are innumerable.
The men to do them, too, are many.
So the task is not as hard as might at
first be supposed. Uncle Sam knows
what he wants. Further, he wants
what he wants when he wants it.
