MEN JOBLESS THIS TIME
Kansas Has More Applications Than
Jnl,s Omen

Unemployment apparently is be-
coming a reality in Kansas. For the
first time in several months the
weekly report of John L. Crawford,
state labor commissioner, shows a
surplus of men over the number Of
jobs. Applications for male help dur
ing the week to the six offices OF the
Kansas free employment bureau con-
Quoted by the labor commissioner to-
tailed 81, while 500 applied for work.
This ratio is just the reverse Of
the situation which existed until re-
Gently when the weekly reports in
dicated a balance between the supply
and demand in the states labor mar
ket While a few weeks ago Jobs
were going begging, seemingly there
is not now enough to go around.
This may be due to the fact that ex-
ira farm work Of the season is about
completed, according to Mr.. Craw-
ford

Judge Gives Out Results Before CIos-
Ing Of Polls

] mk W FWht
Scores OF election boards In Kansas
violated the state laws Tuesday In
publishing partial election returns be.
fore the closing Of the polls.
J. X. Rankin, assistant attorney
general, said he believed the viola
lions resulted for the most part from
ignorance Of the law.
81 have a hunch," he added, THAT
the publication Of the returns from
time to time during the day resulted
In great deal Of benefit to the cleo
ton gamblers. Most Of the betting
probably was on the size Of the ma
Jorities. Some advance dope on the
trend Of things, especially II II were
pared down to encourage the losing
side, probably helped lot OF men to
win some money"
Only one election Judge In the state
asked an opinion from the attorney
generals Office about the law. The
city clerk Of Arkansas City telephon-
ed Tuesday to ask Rankin whether
1t was permissible to announce the
partial count.
Don't do II. It's clear violation
Of the law" replied the assistant at
torney general.
The law on the subject Is contained
in chapter ITO, Of the sessions laws
Of 1917. 1t provides:
mo result Of the count shall be
made known to any person not on the
board until after the time to close the
polls"
Rankin said he thought the viola
ton would not give any ground for
the election, but that It
made the members Of
the board liable to penalty.

 Every Morning
Get ln the habit of drinking . glass of hot water before
 breakfast.

Millions of folks bathe internally now instead of loading their system with drugs. Whats an inside bath?" you say. Well, 1t is guar anteed to perform miracles accord ing to hot water enthusiasts.
 There are vast numbers of men and women who, immediately upon arising in the morning, drink a glass of hot water with tea spoonful of limestone phosphate in it. This is very excellent health measure. It is intended to flush the stomach, kidney and intestines of the previous days waste, sour bile and indigestible material left over in the body which if not eliminated every day, become food for the mil lions of bacteria which infest the bowels, the quick result is poisons and toxins which are then absorbed into the blood, causing headache bilious attacks, foul breath. bad taste, colds, stomach trouble, kidney misery, sleeplessness, impure blood and all sorts of ailments. l
 People who feel good one day and badly the next, but who simply can not get feeling right are urged to obtain a quarter pound of lime stone phosphate at the drug store This will cost very little but is suf | ficient to make anyone a real crank on the subject of internal santa tion.
