Ancient Idol DUO Up.

kalispel, Mont.-An idol, pronounced
officially by the Smithsonian Institu-
tion Washington, to be of Aztec origin
and at least 10000 years old, has been
dug up in sandpit near Eureka. The
idol is of stone. 1t is evidently of a
god and sits on its legs with it's hands
folded in its lap. The thing has a
Chinese look, but photographs sent to
Washington brought reply that it is
an Aztec idol. The sculpturing Is of
high character. The question now Is
how did the Aztec idol get to Montana.

bridles," and before he could stop her
she was gone.
Baynes quickly united two of the
frightened animals and led them to the
point designated by Meriem. Here he
waited impatiently for what seemed
an hour, but was in reality but few
minutes. Then he saw the girl ap-
pfoaching beneath the burden of two
saddles.
Quickly they placed these upon the
horses. They could see by the light OF
the torture fire that still burned that
the blacks and Arabs were recovering
from their panic. Men were running
about gathering in the loose stock, and
| two or three were already leading
their captives back to the end of the
village where Meriem and Baynes were
busy with the trappings Of their
| mounts.
Now the girl flung herself into the
| saddle.
Hurry! ~ she whispered. "We shall
have to run for it. Ride through the
gap that the elephant made" And as
she saw Baynes swing his leg ovel
the back of his horse she shook the
reins free over her mounts neck. With
q lunge the nervous beast leaped for
ward. The shortest path led straight
through the center of the village, an6
this Meriem took. Baynes was Close
behind her, their horses running at full
speed.
So sudden and impetuous was theil
dash for liberty that it carried then
half way across the village before thu
surprised inhabitants were aware o1
what was happening. Then an Aral
recognized them and, with a cry O
alarm, raised his rifle and fired.
The shot was signal for volley
and amid the rattle Of musketry Meri

There is no definite information as
to how much Miss Hilda Flack (the
young lady in the above photo) laughs,
but there is undisputable visual evil
dence of her stoutness. The young
lady is resident of Essex, England,
and caused an uproar in the local
school when her absence one day was
explained by the fact that she couldn't
secure a pair Of shoes large enough
to fit her little feet. Our photo shows
the diminutive Miss Flack, who is
thirteen years old endeavoring to get
a very large-size ladies' shoe on her
foot, said endeavor being quite unsuc-
cessful, as you can see.

Made Wife Weld Pick;
She Seeks Divorce

Providence, r. 1.-The word
"obey" in the marriage VOWS

a woman must juggle a pick and
shovel to please her husband.

a counsel fee Of $25 and 81 a
week pending further hearing

a divorce from Joseph A. Satch-

seemed to him like seventy
seven years. The warning couple

MOTHER! GIVE CHILD
SYRUP OF FIGS" If
TONGUE is COATED.
If Cross, Feverish, Sick, Bilious
Clean Liver and
Bowels.

Children love this fruit laxa-
tive" and nothing else cleanSes
the tender stomach, liver and
bowels so nicely.
A child simply will not stop
playing to empty its bowels, and
the result is, they become tightly
clogged with waste, liver gets
sluggish, stomach sewers, then
your little one becomes cross,
half-sick feverish, don't eat, sleep
or oct naturally, breath is bad,
system is full of cold, has sore
throat, stomach ache, or diahr-
rhoea. Listen. Mother! See if
tongue is coated, then give a tea
spoonful of California Syrup of
Figs and in a few hours all the
constipated waste, sour bile and
undigested food passes out of the
system, and you have a well,
playful child again.
Millions of mothers give Cali
fornia Syrup of Figs" because ii
is perfectly harmless; children
love it, and it never fails to act on
the stomach, liver and bowels.
Ask your druggist for bottle
of California Syrup of Figs .
which has full directions for ba-
bies, children of all ages and for
grown-ups plainly printed on the
bottle. Beware of counterfitS
sold here. Get the genuine, made
by California Fig Syrup Com
pany," Refuse any other kind

COUNTY ROADS
 STAND SEVERE
 STORM TESTS
sy A. |. eardner. Secretary

Cohise County Highway Commission
 The past fourteen days has been a severe storm period, over the state or Arizona and Cochise county in par ticular. The heavy rains and floods therefrom have given the newly con structed roads the supreme test as is instanced by the situation at Douglas, in the vicinity of the Whitewater river bridge. This is the locality where so many people in Douglas and the Warren District who for months have been shouting from the house tops that the grade of the new highway from Douglas to Forrest Station was too high, are now convinced that the grade is not high enough. Commis- sioner H. A. Clark, last Sunday, took several of the critics out on the road and when they returned to Douglas they were converts to the original idea of the commission and its engineers.
 No matter what commission or it's engineer may know by personal ob- servation by gaining knowledge from those who have gone through the you flood period" you will always find many people from Missouri" at home. "So far as the Douglas-Bisbee 0lS0Wdy IS COuCCiuCuB lHCg ndNC been shown"
 About four miles of paving has been completed from Douglas towards For rest Station.
 The Silver Creek bridge is progress sing and one span should be poured the coming week.
 All concrete work from Bernardino Station towards Douglas is progress sing.
 Work is about finished from Pearce to Cochise, there remaining but one bridge (nearly completed) and the fill ing of six dips to be done which will leave the road finished all but drag ging tI is now open to traffic and a | speed of 25 miles an hour upwards can be attained easily from one end to the | other
