No need OF anyone being afraid Of
the after effects and slow recovery
from Spanish Influenza. hard colds
or Grippe, if they will use common
sense and start in building up their
health and strength the right way.
The main thing is to get the blood
rich, red, and pure. so it can carry
life-giring oxygen and strength to
every part Of the body. Impure
blood Is the cause Of so many slow
rccoveries and set-backs.
Doctors say: "Gnt the blood right
and the rest is easy. that nine-lenths
OF all sickness is due to lack OF iron
and phos pilates; the healthy strong,
vigorous man or woman'S blood is al

ing elements.

air and nourishing food nothing

EXEMPTIONS ARE FILED
 IN LARGE NUMBERS
(From Thursdays Daily)

County Recorder McSwiggin stat
 ed yesterday that great many mine
 owners were again taking advantage
 this year of the law which suspend
 ed the annual assessment work on
 unpatented claims, and that so far more than 1000 exemptions had been
 filed on claims located in various
 parts of Yavapai county Mir Me
 Swiggin believes that there will be about 1000 more exemptions filed during the remainder of December,
 this month marking the end of the period in which the exemptions can be filed for the current year. During
 1917, the 1000 exemptions which were filed covered nearly l2,0O claims some of the documents having con tained the names of as high as 60 and 70 claims. While the l2,000 claims represented in the exemptions mem toned do not constitute by long shot all of the claims which arc at present staked out in this county, itI is believed that many claim owners who are interested in properties which are in the sparsely settled parts of the county are willing to take a chance of having their claims jumped rather than perform the as- sessment work or go to the trouble 1 of filing their exemption notices with the recorder in Prescott.
 It is thought in some quarters that because of the fact that the war has closed, the provisions of the law which allowed the mine owners to get out from under the assessment | work may not be operative for long ,r than the coming year, the law hay ing been primarily one which was designed to protect the interests of the miners who had enlisted in the lrmy and navy and who therefore ,ould not remain at home 10 do the required amount of development. work.

HCMEWRECKER IS SENT
 TO JAIL FOR SIX MONTHS
(From Thursdays DaiIv)

Louis Chavez, the Wickenburg Mexican who was arrested here sev- eral weeks ago on a statutory charge preferred by the husband of Mrs. lsadora Rochas of that place, was yesterday sentenced to the county jail for term of months by Justice McLane, the defendant having been found guilty of inducing Mrs. Rochas and four of her children to leave their home and come to Prescott with him. Mrs. Rochas eloped with her lover and 1t was not until after they had been in Prescott for nearly month that the husband succeeded in locat- ing his family. Chavez had secured employment at the Santa Fe shops and was living with the woman and the four children in the north part of the city. One of the children died from the influenza after it had been in Prescott a week or so.
 Mrs. Rochas has refused to return home with her husband, and since the arrest of her lover, she has spent most of her time lettering about the court house in an attempt to remain close to Mir. Chaves. Rochas has been sending money to Judge McLane from time 10 time for the support of the wife and children.

One of the shortest and strangesi wills ever filed in the Yavapai court
 for probate was up for the inspection of Superior Judge Sweeney yester- day afternoon, at which time the pc
 tiiion of Frank Dickerson for ap-
 pointment as administrator of rtc estate of Frank Hull, deceased, was called up for the courts considera- ton. The complete text of the brief document is printed above, the will having been written in pencil, one paragraph by the relatives of the tes- tator at the time he was on his death bed, and the alternate paragraphs be- ing scrawled by the dying man. The will bore neither a date nor the acknowledgement of any witnesses. and for this reason. Judge Sweeney, for the purpose of further investigat- ing the case, continued the matter of the appointment of the administrator until some future session of the court.
 Hull. who was a mute, left cash and claims valued at S2,7OO. It is evi- dent from the text of the will that he intended the holdings to go to his niece, Mrs. Alice Dickerson, wife of the petitioner, but because of the ir- regularity with which the will, if such ii can be called, was drawn up. it is not certain that the court will see fit to comply with the directions contained therein. Hull has brother Joseph, resident of Vidal, Califor mia, and the court wished to be sure that the interests Of the latter were not being jeopardized in :he matter of the disposition of the property of his deceased relative.
