Draught is without doubt the best
liver medicine made. do not hest
tate to say it will do all it's is recon-
mended to do and more.

while, and Black Draught is good
enough for me. 1t does the work we'll

bile, the easiest of any purgative l

indigestion, Gas
and Bloat. From
Acid Stomach

An acid-stomach cannot digest food
properly. Instead, the food sours and
ferments and, passing into the intes-
tines, becomes breeding place for
countless millions of deadly germs
toxic poisons they are called. These
poisons are absorbed into the system
and cause untold misery. So, you see,
it is just acid-stomach, nothing else
that makes so many people weak,
listless and unfit; saps their strength
and energy; robs them of their vigor
and vitality. Biliousness, bad liver,
nervousness, binding, splitting head
aches, rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica
these and many other still more
serious ailments often are traced to
the common source-an acid-stomach.
Take EATONIC and get rid quickly
OF the pains of indigestion, heartburn,
that horrible, lumpy, bloated feeling
after eating; disgusting, belching,
food-repeating; sour, gassy stomach.
These stomach miseries are caused by
what doctors call "Hyperacidity."
It's just ACID-STOMACH. And in
addition to the pains and miseries it
causes, AOID-STOMACH is the starter
of long train of ailments that most
people never dreamed are in any

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be careful what you wash it
with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkal, This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle and is very
harmful. .Mulsihed cocoanut oil sham
poo (Which is pure and entirely grease
less), is much better than anything else
you can use for shanlpooing, as this
can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance Ct rich, creamy
lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily,
and removes every particle of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it
fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get Mulsitied cocoanut oil
shampoo at most any drug store. 1t is
very cheap, and few ounces is enough
to last everyone i'll the family for months.

WOMEN TRY SETTLING
 QUARREL IN PUBLIC

With one lying flat on her back in the street and the other on top scratch ing at eyes and pulling hair, two wom- en yesterday afternoon started to settle their differences in a manner generally considered to be reserved for the other sex.
 All thought of where they were or of the crowd hastily gathering or of any consequences whatever had gone from the minds of the two women They were frantic, crazy mad, and each wanted only to annihilate the other. Nails had already cut into faces and blood was flowing freely Their hair was down. and pins, combs and other articles of hair and clothing were strewn on the street at Second and Adams.
 Along with the physical combat, there was a free washing of dirty linen, some very personal and unsavory charges being made against each other
 The affair was interrupted by man who assisted the principals to their feet. The women started to arrange their disordered persons to some ex- tent. when a word or two started them at each other again. Again they were separated, and this time were induced to depart, one in one direction and the other in another. There were no ar rests.

The County Highway Commission Law

That act of the legislature amending the county highway commission law modifies and improves the latter in many respects and affords greater freedom in highway construction One of the most important changes is that which allows the use of part of the county fund take the bonds of road districts whose roads may he included in general system Of county highway improvements thus double taxation will be avoided
 Another change permits cooperation with the fed eral government and allows the use of much of the road fund as may be needed to meet any fund the federal government may set aside for the improve ment of highways in that county.
 Under the law before it's amendment the question Of a bond issue could be submitted to the people only d petition signed by certain number of the quail fled of the county. The present law allows the question to initiated by the board of supervisors. Ninety days before the election the bond issue the supervisors shall appoint highway commission of five members. The commission shall prepare map of the proposed system of improvement for which the bonds are to be issued. This map and accompanying report shall be completed days before the cleo ton and shall be given publication two weeks before the election.
 We understand that the present highway commits son consisting of Eugene Haekett. A. F. Jones, C. C. Green. J. D. Peterson and F T. Hurley intend without delay to prepare a map which shall include all of the highways decided upon by the old highway board and
 
 other additional routes so as to constitute complete county road system.
 As this is matter of the greatest interest at this time. we trust that the commission will proceed with expedition and that the most complete publicity will be given every step taken Publicity is not only the greatest safeguard of public work but in this it will stimulate interest in the greatly needed road building program.
 Fortunately immense amount Of valuable pre- lminary work has been done by the various road mittees cooperating with the board of supervisors All the information gathered Is in the hands of the newly appointed county highway commission and it has recently spent much time in carefully studying the good road needs of the county.
 The commssion,has a great opportunity before it for constructive service 10 the community which should result in vell-bslanced sytem of permanent highways built s non-poitical basis. with careful specifications enforced by honest and capable inspect ors. Such system is what the taxpayers want and t would prove a genuine asset to Marcopa county

Davies had demanded S15,000 for obtaining govern ment license to proceed with the promotion of the company The license not secured. We suppose though. Mir. Davies was allowed $500 for having tried.
 MT Davies a position of vantage to be use fu such a concern. As a reward for eminent party service Ee made commissioner corporations in 1913 and held that post until 1915 when he made chairman of the federal trade commission It is con cernng his activities with reference the Packing company during this part of his official career that Judge Sanders desires interview him.
 Mir. Davies retired from the federal trade commits sion in February of 1917. For the purpose of fur ther identification of Mir. Davies we will mention that he is the candidate whom President Wilson selected for the office of United States senator from Wiscon- sin That is why probably MT. Davies resigned from the commission to take part in the campaign a month later.
 At that time little known of Mir. Davies by the country at large. He had been a small Wisconsin lawyer with an ealy penchant for politics. He had been chairman of the state democratic committee member from Wisconsin of the national democratic committee, and in 1912, chairman of the western headquarters of the democratic national committee
 The president however, selected him as the can- didate against MT. Lenroot He told the people of Wisconsin, in effect, that if their adoration of the chief executive of the nation genuine they would elect NIT. Davies
 He volunteered graciously, of course some reasons independent of the presidents wish why Mir Davies should be elected He in the first place patriot by which the Wisconsin voters understood he was loyal 10 the president. while MT.

The Matter of Unemployment

During the session of the legislature no day passed that more members did not direct the attention Of house the other to the need of employment and advised the beginning of public works especially road building. in order that places might be opened for the unemployed. It especially desired that places should be made for the returning soldiers and next, for the men who being thrown out of em- poyment by the closing down Of the mines or the reduction of working forces.
 These warnings were in line with those that had been issued by the federal urging states and communities to assist in the solution of the prob lem of unemployment. We made the more ap- prehense too by reports from the larger cities of the number of idle who were conrregsted in them looking for work
 The matter Of soldier employment in this state at least seems to he easily adjusted. The writer the other night overheard conversation on a street car between member of the soldiers and sailors club on this subject and acquaintance. The soldier was returning from a meeting Of the club. He said that place had been found by the club for every member who wanted and that day places had gone begging; there were places than there were soldiers
 Nearly all the boys from Arizona except those who were sent 10 France have already returned ,and the number who were sent abroad is small compared with those who only got as far camps and contonments SO that with the coming on when employment
 
 to apprehend that soldier will be unable to find place
 As 10 the employment of men from the mines some doubt has been expressed whether a man who had been used 10 working underground would care for surface work, something entirely new to him. and if has been admitted that the miner who had been draw ns from "A to ss day for work that he was trained in and which was eongenisl to him. would probably hesitate long time before he would undertake road work at the which that of work in the pas, has paid.
 There was some talk in connection with the state highway bill of effort that would be made in the event of the of Senate i7 10 make the work attractive by fixed wage of ss day. We do not know whether a highway commission that might have been appointed under such a law would have agreed to such scale but If so it was well enough that tho bill failed for the passage of it would have been but the beginning of our highway construction troubles

AsS. CHARITIES IN APPEAL FUR HELP

Many little feet are treading daily to school barefoot and many little bod ies shiver as they hurry along the streets in this cold weather Won't the good people of Phoenix come to the aid of these little sufferers?"
 This is the appeal the Associated Charities has issued to the more pros- porous residents of tho city. The sud- den cold spell has made it more clear than ever that many children, as well as men and women. are sadly in need of clothes and unable to get them, un- less the more fortunate ones provide them through the Charities.
 The Associated Charities are not only in dire need of shoes and clothing of all kinds for children and grown ups, but of bedding as we'll. Almost anything in these lines that some one has little use for will find a welcome use in one of the poorer homes of the city. If you have anything you can give to aid the needy and unfortunate, communicate with the Associated Charities. They'll do the rest.

Tn Meeting of Human Needs

understanding of Truth be clear enough it will meet his needs where he stands, even to the supplying of ma terial food, clothing and shelter. An other thing always follows immediately on the perception. in some measure, or the truth of being-the reduction Of fear And every one knows that to eliminate fear is to remove the chief factor initiating against human en- deavor and therefore against human achievement.
 There is a sentence in Science and Health of outstanding significance: Divine Love always has met and all ways will meet every human need" CD. 494.) No one has anything like fathomed the depths of the meaning of divine Love. But there stands the truth about it. God is infinite Love. Man is cared for by this infinite Love. Creation is cared for by this infinite Love.
