Beauty More Than Skin Deep

There is an old saying that beauty
Is only skin deep. That may be SO
with those who get their beauty out OF
box but not the genuine sort. Beau
ty is really only another word for good
health and no woman who is bilious
and constipated can reasonably hope
to be beautiful. Chamberlain's Tab
lets will correct these disorders, then
with proper diet and exercise there
is no reason why any young woman
with regular features may not hope to
be beautiful.
She Sets Good Example.
II keep a bottle of Chamberlain
Collie and -Diarrhoea Remedy in the
house at all times and have recon
mended it to many friends and ac-
quaintances who have used it with
good results writes A. o. Newell, New
Kensiington, Pa. Should you not dc
like wise? Think Of the pain and suf-
fering that must be endured when
medicine must be sent for.
Now Is the Time to Get Rid OF Your
rheumatism
II you are troubled with rheumatism
get a bottle of Chamberlain's Lini-
ment and use it according to the plain
printed directions. 1ou will be sur
prised at the quick relief which it af-
fords. No internal treatment is re-
quired in cases of chronic or musclar
rheumatism ALI you need Is to use
lis linfrnent freely.

mountain home. But as she leaves
the grounds she sees that the barn is
on fire.
She knows that a fine thoroughbred

that the horse is a favorite for the

Others from the house rush out as

dares to enter the stable, which is en-
veloped in smoke and flame.

RANGER CALDWELL CO.
TO SINK ANOTHER WELL
Stockholders Will Back Man.
agement In Drilling On
Other Territory.

Undiscouraged by the failure to
strike oil in the first well drilled by
the company on their holdings in the
Ranger field, the stockholders of the
Ranger-C Caldwell Oil & Gas Company
held a meeting at the Majestic Thea
tire in this city, Tuesday evening. to
hear the report of their officers and
determine on the best course to be
pursued in the future.
The meeting was a large and en-
thusiastic one, nearly all the stock
of the company being represented In
person or by proxy. From Phoebe
came DR.. W. w. Stockham, Charles
Stindt. and Mr.. Chas. Thompson. DR..
L. B. Sandal came from Moapa,
Ray E. Andruss. Mr.. and Mrs. Rich
ard Feaster, Thomas Bland. ]. A. Eg-
ger, d. G. Freelove and Chas. Cort
represented the Goodsprings stock
holders and Mr. and Mrs. c. NJ Hunt
were here from Oatman, Arizona.
Nearly diI lhC hdo VEGAS oSOSh-
holders were present. Mr.. and Mrs.
George H. French made report up
on the operations and expenditures
in drilling the we'll recently compile
ted and the report convinced those
present that Notwithstanding the dis
appointment occosioned by not find
ing oil in paying quantities, their
money had been spent in well direct
ed efforts, and that the right thing to
do is to raise more money and go af-
ter it again.
To carry out this plan it was voted
to increase the capital stock and be-
gin drilling again with the money al
ready on hand on other acreage of
the company in the Ranger district.
The action of the meeting WAS unan-
imous and entire satisfaction was ex-
pressed with the management of the
company. The stockholders feel that
they have had a fair run for their
money and that the holdings of the
company are valuable, requiring only
persistence to bring about the great
success for which all hope.

AIRPLANE WAS DAMAGED
MAKING FORCED LANDING

Forced to land in the mountainous
country north of Goffs because of
motor trouble, Earl J. Ailor and Sam
Adair telegraphed last Saturday that
their plane had been badly wrecked.
Neither of the flyers was injured.
The flyers were on thir wa yfrom
Las Vegas, Nevada, to Blythe, having
spent several days in the Nevada city
carrying passengers. Details of the
accident are lacking but it is thought
that they were forced to land while
crossing a range ten miles from the
Searchhght road at Marupa. With
no landing field available, the plane
collided with rocks, shattering the
propeller and breaking the radiator,
landing gear strut and engine bed.
Ailor wired for new parts and stated
that he could repair the damage un-
less the motor proved to be damaged.
The plain belongs to the Curtiss
company and was recently loaned to
Ralph Seeley pending the delivery OF
a new ship to him.
The country at the scene of the &C
cident is barren and the flyers suf'
ferd considerable hardship before
getting to the railroad.-Blythe Her

JOHN FAGAN ANNOUNCES
CANDIDACY FOR SHERIFF

John Pagan has announced himself
candidate for the Democratic nom
ination for sheriff of Clark county.
His card appears in this issue of the
Age.
Mr.. Pagan is one of the pioneers OF
Las Vegas, having come to this city
IA years ago, being for a considerable
time in the employ of the Los An
geles and Salt Lake Railroad Com
pany as a machinist. For more than
three years, from 1912 to 1915, he was
city marshal of Las Vegas, an exper-
ience which would be of great value
to him as sheriff. His record as an
officer during that period was beyond
criticism, and it is fair to assume that
as sheriff he would be equally sue
cessful During the past four years
he has been janitor at the grammar
school building and has given ex'
cellent satisfaction.
Mr.. Ragan has a personality which
would we'll become sheriff and his
integrity and sincerity are beyond
question. Mr.. Pagan will prove a for
midible contestant in the Democratic
primaries.
