An Inside Bath
Makes You Look
and Feel Fresh
Says a glass of hot water with
phosphate before breakfast
keeps Illness away.
This excellent, common-sense
health measure being
adopted by millions.

Physicians the world over recon-
mend the inside bath, claiming this
is of vastly more Importance than
outside cleanliness, because the
skin pores do not absorb impurities
INTO the blood, causing i'll health
while the pores in the ten yards OF
bowels do.
Men and women are urged to drink
each morning, before breakfast, a
class of hot water with a teaspoon
full of limestone phosphate in it, as
harmless means Of helping &c
wash from the stomach, liver, kid
neys and bowels the previous day
indigestible material, poisons, sour
bile and toxins; thus cleansing
sweetening and purifying the entire
alimentary canal before putting
more food into the stomach.
Just as soap and hot water cleanse
and freshen the skin. so hot water
and limestone phosphate act on the
climinatiye organs.
Those who wake up with bad
breath. coated tongue, nasty taste
or have dull, aching head, SAL
low complexion, acid stomach; 9TH
cts who are subject to bilious at
tacks or constipation, should obtain
a quarter pound OF limestone phos-
phate at the drug store. This will
cost very little but is sufficient to
demonstrate the value of inside
bathing. Those who continue II
each morning are assured of pro-
nOunced results. both in regard to
health and appearance.

RUSH FOR OFFICERS

MARION, o., Nov. S.-Many of
Senator Harding's admirers, conf
dent Of a Republican victory, have
given him the attention Of poten
tial President, and the inevitable pro-
cession of Office seekers has begun.
Requests for appointments to posit-
ions ranging from cabinet member
down have reached Harding head
quarters in quantity, and there has
been rush for postmasterships by
many who are not aware that recent
legislation has put these positinons
under the civil service.
One Of those who offered to aerye
as secretary Of state, wrote the sen
ator although he was young and in
experienced, he had honest purposes
and high aims, and was willing to
take advice. His name never had been
heard before by the candidate or his
advisers here.

Decrease ST. Per
Cent Census Shows

Washington, Oct. 28.-The number
of farms in Missouri decreased from
277 ,244 in 1910 to 263,l24 in 1920, ac-
cording to report by the Census
Bureau today. This was a loss Of
14,f20 or 81 per cent as against a
loss of 81 per cent in the decade
from 1900 to 1910. In the whole
United States the number of farms
increased Ia per cent since 1910,
making the total now 6,499,99S.
A farm for census purposes is all
the land which is directly farmcd by
one person, either alone or with the
aid of members of his household or
hired employees. When landowner
has one or more tenants. renters,
choppers or managers, the land op-
Grated by each is considered farm.
The heaviest loss in the number Of
llol per cent, was in Montana!
Twenty-Five of the states show de-
.creases.
Detailed figures for Missouri show
that only lS Of the ia counties
gained in number OF farms. These
were Buchanan, Butler, Garter,
Christian, Cole, Dent, Dunklin,
Franklin, Howell, Iron, New Mad
rid, Pemiscot, Phelps, Platte, St.
Francois, Shannon. Stoddard and
Warren, Greene County with 4,252,
has the largest number of farms, and
Carter, with 608, the smallest. The
number of farms in St. Louis Coun-
ty declined from 404S to 3735 and

FOUR YEARS AGO

NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-Election
night, four years ago, Broadway was
lit up with red fire and champagne as
Charles Evans Hughes retired to bed
in his apartments in the Hotel Astor,
acclaimed President-elect Of the Uni
ted States, guards stood at the eleva-
tor doors on the ground floor turning
away hysterical celebrants with the
words that the President" was
asleep.
In the Hughes apartment, whole
wing of one floot ofthe hotel, Mrs.
Hughes, their three daughters and
their son, Charles E., Jr., had divided
up the White House for the next four
years and were listening to the roar
on Broadway gone loco on glee and
so forth. Early in the evening the
New York Times and the World, Pres
ident Wilson's two stanchest support
ers, had conceded his defeat for re-
election, so there seemed no reason
to doubt 1t.
And Two Days Later
But two days later Charles Evans
Hughes was no longer President-elect
of the United States, he was an ex-
justice of the supreme court, If you
insist, an ex-governor of New York,
as well, but otherwise just Charles
Evans Hughes, lawyer and leading
citizen, with living to make, a fam
lily to keep, no official position and
no job,

slow. Hardin's election was conceded
Tuesday morning early. The state Of
Missouri however, may remain in
doubt until Thursday as rather con-
Aicting reports are coming in. 1t is
feared that Champ Clark has been de-
feated for Congress. Votes from the
strong Republican counties in his dis
trict are coming in exceedingly slow
and he is not making the gain hoped
for.
The election table in today's Led
ger, which is as complete as the late
returns allow, show some unusual
changes in the party lineup. Many Of
the women in the country, evidently
did not vote and this is conceded to
have made the Democratic vote less
than it might otherwise have been.
Reports from the east end Of the
county state that Judge John S. Cat
son, on the Republican ticket, de-
feated D. H. Boatright, on the Demo-
cratic ticket, for Judge of the County
Court from that section. Outside of
This one defeat the County Demo-
cratic ticket was victorious.
We suggest you study the table
which win be an eye-opener regarding
the votes in Audrain county since the
arrival Of equal suffrage. Mexico
shows decided gain as do other pre-
cincts.
The following figures on the 1916
election in Audrain county for COM
parative purposes with the present
election will be of interest.

HARDING WINS
PRESIDENCY
Of The j. s.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 3.--Aslde from
the big vote polled in favor Of Senator
Harding Republican nominee for the
presidency and assuring his election
over Governor Cox, the Democratic
nominee, Missouri also will likely go
Republican by a good majority How
ever this is denied by the State DEM
ocratic headquarters as returns are
slow coming in from the Democratic
counties Of the country where DEM
ocracy is strong.
Indications are that Harding won
Ohio by a large majority.
Every indication points to Tenne-
nessee going Republican for the first
time in a great many years.
Small, Rep, according to late re-
sorts has defeated Lewis, DEM, In
the race for governor in Illinois by a
big majority. The Republican ticket
won throughout Illinois.
Indications are that Congress Will
be Republican-the Senate by 8 and
the house by n.
Republicans claim they have won
83 states giving Harding at least 376
electoral votes and leaving Cox only
143.
1t is feared that the vote polled by
Hukreide in Warren, st, Charles,
Franklin, Gasconade and Montgomery
county will be sufficient to overcome
any lead Clark may have in other
counties. The report is that Mont
gomery county gave Hukriede ma
jority over Clark of 800 votes.

ever there are groups of women of N. i.

club women should give counsel al

an invitation to be offered. Volunteers

With the ratification of the suff az @

They must point the way to higher cit-
