Why Suffer So?

Why suffer from a bad back, from sharp, shooting twinges headaches, dizziness and distress urinary ills? PeopIs around here recommend Doan's Kidney Pills. Could you ask for stronger proof of merritt.
 Mrs. J. G. Lambert, S20 N. Pleasant St., Prescott, Ariz., says: Some years ago when l was living at Los Angeles, Cal, my kidneys were in bad shape. My back ached as though it were broken. No one can realize how kidney trouble makes one suffer until they have it. Dizziness and severe headaches bothered me and l always felt drowsy and de- pressed. I had doctored and used many different kidney remedies, but nothing had seemed to help he any. Finally, I begun using Doan's Kidney Pills and they soon cured me"
 Price 6oc, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Lambert had. Foster Milburn Co.,, M f grs., Buffalo, N. Y.

Iu another column you will find the announcement of w. H. Gibbons for supervisor. Mr. Gibbons has served Apache couu- ty during the past two years as chairman of the board, and in all sincereity we can say that he has made us one of the best of supre- vlsors, filling the position with honor and credit. And under the present existing cond itions. in which our county is now situated; that of having the Road Bond Is- sue to handle; we will say that in our opinion he is the best fitted man that the democrats could elect to help handle the county affairs for the next two year or more, as he is fully acqua inted with the business and there is no doubt that he can handle it better than anyone who is not acquainted with the affairs.
 Joesph Gardner of Holbrook was 8 visitor here Tuesday.

George A. Winsor of Edgar democratic candidate for the off, ce of sheriff was in the city for a few days this week shaking hands with his many friends and trying to make more friends Mir. Winsor is one of Apache County's prominent men and a man fully capable to handle the office for which he is aspiring. Having lived in Apache county most all his life he is deserving of the SUD- port of the voters of the county and no mistake will be made if he is the choice of the people at the primary and general elections.
 In this issue of the Herald you will findth announcements of George Jarvis and George A. Brown, for the position of treas urer. Both of these young men are Apache county products and are boys of good standing and worthy of the support of the vot- CTS. We believe that either of them would make good efficient officers.

D emocratic County Central
 Committee

It appears that the action taken by the Democrats, at the Caucus, held at Springerville on the 26t h day of July, has not met with the united approval of the Democrats of the County, and it has fur . ther been suggested. by some, that the action taken there was not for the best interest of the party, and should be revolfAl.
 The Central Committee desires to let it be known that the action taken there was taken with the very best of motives, and solely with the purpose of strength ening the party, and there were no ulterior motives, whatever entering into it. While rumors have been circulated to the effect, that a slate was made, the com mittee wishes to disaffirm any such accusation, and since a mum Der of prominent democrats have made themselves very busy in circulating these reports, and have placed upon the shoulders of the Central Committee and especially the Chairman. the res possibility of fathering the action taken at the Caucus, the con- mittee feels that it is now time to Wash it's Hands" clean of any such responsibility connected with that action, and with taking any initiative in securing the nomination for some candidates, favorably considered in the Cau- GUS.
 Therefore the committee states that no advantage will be gained because of the Caucus, and that matters will be considered as in the same condition as they were before the Caucus was had, in other words, the field is now open to any candidate who cares to
  seek the nomination for any office.

Chamberlain's Colic
 and Diarrhoea Remedy

This is unquestionably one of the most successful medicines in use for bowel complaints. A few doses of it will cure an ordinary attack of diarrhoea. It has been used in nine epidemics of dysen- tery with perfect success. It can alawys be depended upon to give prompt relief in cases of collie and cholera morbus. When reduced with water and sWeetened it is pleasant to take. Every family should keep this remedy at hand.

The Heart Of Christmas

Christmas is not day, it is mood.
1t is Independent of days. We cele-
brate it on Friday, Saturday, Sunday
any day of the week. Christmas is
indifferent TO days. 1t has nothing to
do with the almanac. 1t has nothing
to do with place. 1t is as independent
of geography as il is of chronology. 1t
has no relation to human government,
or even to race or blood. 1t is an
institution which can be set up on any
soil and under the folds of any flag.
Christmas is a spiritual creation, and
belongs to TIE kingdom of the heart.
1t is constructed by angels of the heart
of a child. If it then be a mood, it
can be extended over a week, month,
a year, lifetime. 1t can be built upon
time, upon eternity. If you confine it
to day, you miss the meaning of it..
If you try to cram it into twenty-four
hours. you crush it and lose the es-
sence of it.

Material Appropriate Weight and Soft

Three Piece Suits.

Not long since. writes Paris cor
respondent in Vogue, the Parisienne
went slowly by. with bent head, clad
in the somber tones Of war work uni
form. But now she goes a way Of
great gayety and jauntiness, and her
country suits are frequently made in
three pieces. She has a new material
for them-cheviot serge Of appropriate
weight and soft, fuzzy surface. This
is cut into a frock and cloak or cape
and sometimes into a hat. as well.
The frock Is simple in the chemlse
style. with short sleeves, ard of a
breyity suitable for walking. The
coat reaches either three-quarters
or full length and is roomy and sim
pie In its design, while the hat, which
may be either Of the same material
or Of felt, is always Of matching col

The collar is the most striking poiiis
of difference between he suits OF las.
year and those of tbs winter -
far as the cut of the susts themselves
is concerned, writes ashton CORE
spondent. there Is SO much iati'uue
that ii is difficult to pm ones 1ais5
to any type. The striightiine coat
may be said to be the most popular
Any number of short box coats are
seen. These find popularity with the
younger set.
Perhaps the reason for the longer
straightline coat taking precedence
over all others is that 1t was brought
out earlier in the season and might
be termed a style now in full sway
While the box coat is not an abso-
lutely new thing-haying made us
debut some time ago-it recently mas
been exploited to a considerable eN-
tent by some of the best French ana
American houses. Nine. Jenny, for
one. makes much of the very short
box coat A few ripple coats are
seen, but these are In the minority.
Collars are high. The chief req
uisite Of collar is that 1t must be
high. 1t may top vest, muffie the
throat and fasten in the back, or u
may take its inspiration from the d.
rect0ire and flare in the back and al
the sides. Although many are cut 10
shape at the front to give freedom.
they still come well up about the
head and ears. Whereas the high
collars seen ON coats in winters re-
Gently passed buttoned up about the
neck In some way. this year they
often are open in front High collars
of fur are shown across the front,
while the back of the collar may be
of cloth.
Coats Uneven of Hem.
The unevenness of the bottoms OF
coats is noteworthy feature. In
this they follow the lead of dresses,
which are as uneven at the hens as
can be. A suit recently seen is an ex-
ample of the unevenness of the bot
toms of both coat and skirt. The
model is from Martial eft Armand. The
Jackets of suits shown by this house
are of all lengths, from the short lit
tie boxlike jackets to those reaching
almost to the hem of the skirt.
Navy blue yelours de laine is used
for this suit, and the pointed edge
panels, which extend below the edge
of both jacket and skirt, are embroi-
dered in gray. The gray embroidery
also appears on the narrow cuff bands.
The one-button closing is extensively
used by this firm as fastening for
suit jackets The vest and high col
lar are of squirrel. The skirt is short
and narrow.
Wider sleeves are in evidence. Ever
so many are loose and flowing. The
bell-shaped three-quarters length is
very much liked. The long, straight.
full coat sleeves. with deep embroi-
deries, which were so much feature
of last seasons collections, still are
seen.
Bulloz, who is noted for his beau
tifrI suits, makes jackets which are
straight. loosely belted and of me-

de laine and duvetyn, with the chevi-
OTIS and striped woolens for the more
strictly tailored suits.
Colors are rather somber. Black,
brown and gray are in the lead. With
the use of gray for suits, seal has be-
come even more popular. because 1t
makes such beautiful contrast TO the
soft gray cloth, as well as following
the vogue for gray and black.
Bulloz has successfully launched
some splendid coats made of cloth,
with fur trimming, notably in COM
binations of gray veiours de laine
and sealskln fur.
Big Collars of White Skunk.
Many brown furs, which are very
beautiful in themselves, could not be
considered for use with gray. White
furs are used In connection with
black cloth. White skunk is used in
the form Of enormous collars and cuffs
worked in vertical lines on beauti-
fully brocaded evening coats.
The different feelings toward the
use of trimming as eyinced by the
different dressmakers, is interesting.
Some use it sparingly, and others
lavishly. Those who favor its exten-
slye use employ it in the form of
large collars and cuffs, and for both
deep bands and narrow edgings.
Cheruit is one great designer who
favors fur. Callot. another author
ity, uses 1t sparingly. SO we may
please ourselves as to whether we
shall wear fur or not and also con-
suit our pocketbooks.
Cheruit shows day coats of loose,
straight cut, as well as short box
coats, and makes capes trimmed with
wide bands of fur to be worn over
the short box coats.
Both short and long-haired fur pelts
are used by this maker, such as seal,
squirrel, red Australian opossum,
goat dyed gray and monkey fur.
Lanvin is one who, although she
may be said to be using less fur than
formerly, is showing some short capes
of monkey fur. When she uses fur
as trimming, preference is given to
sheared lamb, although few models
are trimmed with monkey fur. The
latter, no longer novelty, Is much
cheaper this year.
Trimming Has Color.
As a trimming to take the place of
fur there is applique embroidery In
vivid colors. These bright colors.
which occasionally appear in the form
of trimmings on suits, may be ae-
counted for by the dullness Of SO
many dark street costumes. Many
women like some brightness in their
street clothes and soon weary of SO
many dark costumes.
An interesting embroidery is seen
in the combination of alternating rowe
of steel beads and steel thread. Ever
so many Of the hand-embroidered
trimming bands start from under tbe
arm and extend to the hem OF the
coat or dress.
Straightline quilting again is an
pearing on coats, suits and dresses. a
feature Of one firm this season is hugo
embroidered disks or the same effect
obtained through an applique Of cloth
Often they are placed straight across
the back Of the garment from shoul-
der to shoulder, a novel treatment
which cannot be said to be entirely
satisfactory from the standpoint Of
becomingness.
