SELF DEFENSE
Defeat Backache and Kidney
Trouble With Anuric

Many people in this section have suffer-
ed from rheumatism and kidney trouble
and have found that Anuric was the most
successful remedy to overcome these
painful and dangerous ailments.
The lucky people are those who have
suffered, but who are now well because
they needed natures warning signal in
time to correct their trouble with that
wonderful new discovery of DR.. Pierce
called "An-u-ric" double strength). You
should promptly heed these warnings,
some of which are dizzy spells, backache,
irregularity of the urine or the painful
twinges of rheumatism, sciatica or lum-
bago. To delay may make possible the
dangerous forms of kidney disease. such
as stone in the bladder. II you want
quick relief buy Anuric now (60c a pack
age)-or send DR.. Pierce 10c for trial pkg.
This will prove that "Anuric" eliminates
uric acid as hot water melts sugar

WOMEN TO FOREGO
HONOR OF VOTING
ATTORNEY GENERAL WITH AT.
TORNEYS, ADVISES AGAINST
THEIR SERVICE.
SAYS MAY BE IRREGULAR
Granting Women Right To Vote Is
Perfectly Plain, Says MIR. Arbuckie,
and Women Should Be Allowed To
Vote in Primary Elections.
Little Rock

Little ROCK
Attorney General Arbuckle handed
down an opinion which may result in
preventing women from acting as
judges and clerks of elections. He
said in the event of contests the en-
tire election might be declared illegal
because the constitutionality of the
suffrage act had not been passed upon
in Arkansas by the Supreme Court.
Mr.. Arbcukle held, however, that if
the election were contested and de-
clared irregular because women had
voted therein, the candidates having
the highest number of votes after the
contested votes had been thrown out
would be declared legally elected and
that the fact of women voting would
not. therefore, of itself, render the
election invalid
The attorney general says:
1.-THE statute granting women the
right of suffrage is perfectly plain
and, in the opinion of this office, wo-
men should be allowed to vote in the
primary elections of the state.
However. the constitutionality of
this act has been questioned. If you
allow women to vote in primary cleo
tons and any contest of the election
should arise, the courts would, should
the law be finally declared to be un-
constitutional, reject the illegal votes
and the election would still be legal,
and those having majority after
such illegal votes were rejected would
be the nominee, but If you should ap-
point women to be judges and clerks
of your election and the courts should
hold the act granting the right of suf-
frage to women in the primary cleo
lions of the state to be unconstitu-
tional, then your election would be
rendered void.
Since proceedings have already
been had. as | am informed, to test
the constitutionality of this act, it
seems it would be best that you do not
at this time appoint women as judges
and clerks OF city primary elections,
and thereby unnecessarily inject this
question into your city election.
Il am sure that the women them
selves will appreciate the situation
and will at this time be content with
the privilege of voting"

Commissioner E. l. Mckinley, who
says that representatives of big mills
and factories from other states have
been in Arkansas recently trying to
hire men from the Arkansas mills.
Mr.. Mckinley says there now Is such
a shortage of labor that the minimum
price for common labor is 81 day.

After ltinerant Traders.

Judging by the number of letters re-
il appears that few people are aware
that there is law requiring all itin-
Grant horse traders to pay license of
800 annually in the county in which
they operate. The act was passed in
1905 and applies only to those traders
who travel from one place to another
swapping horses. Mr.. Arbuckle has
advised all inquirers that a license
is required and those who trade horses
in that fashion without taking out a
license are subject to fine of not
less than 800 nor more than $500.
Each days violation constitutes a sep
arate offense.
