Rheumatism Comes
From Tiny Pain Germs

First Of all, get it firmly fixed in
your mind that all the liniments
in the world have no effect what
ever on rheumatism.
A very common form Of Rheu-
matism is caused by millions of
tiny disease germs which infest the
blood. The one and only sensible
treatment. therefore. is one which
cleanses the blood Of these germs,
and routs them entirely out Of the
circulation.

URGENT CALL SENT
OUT FOR HARVEST
HANDS; EMPLOYMENT
OFFICE VERY BUSY

The federal-state employment Of
flee at Ardmore is receiving ur-
gent calls for harvest hands from
northwestern Oklahoma every day.
A call for 1900 men has been re-
ceived from Woodward, 500 men
for Alva, 500 men for Carmen,
1000 for Enid and immediate ter
ritory tributary to that office. Also
about 500 are needed in Beaver
county, June the 20th.
Mrs. Maxwell states that dur
ing this week about 100 men have
been sent through this office, and
many more applied and desired to
go to the harvest fields but did
not have the transportation.
Many others are taking chances
and riding freight trains, and in
this way are reaching the harvest
fields. She further stated that the
situation throughout Alfalfa,
Woods, Woodward, Harper and
Ellis counties is growing more
acute each day, and every office
is urged to continue their efforts
to assist in saving the Oklahoma
wheat crop by causing every pos
sible able bodied white man TO
report at once to some office where
men are distributed for the harvest
fields.
Mrs. Maxwell receives a bulle-
tin every morning, setting forth
the conditions and just where and
how many men are needed. The
men receive 81 per day with board.
Separator men and engineers from
five 10 six dollars per day.

Detroit, Mich, June 20.-Dramatic
denial of the charge that she killed
six year-old Max Ernest with whose
father she had quarreled over a real
estate transaction was made by Mrs.
Elizabeth Lewen, who took the stand
in her own defense
Il couldn't do such a thing. Every
woman in this court room knows l
couldn't; l couldn't do it any more
than that mans wife could" she cried,
pointing at Prosecutor Voorhies. Sew
eral times she became hysterical and
finally, recess was taken.
She told Of making the first payment
on house purchased through Frank
Ernest, the childs father, in a fash
ionable district, out of which, the
estate charges, grew quarrel that led
to the crime,
She offered a note for 81 900 endors-
ed by Ernest, she said and although
an extension had been arranged for
she was locked out on May 8, the locks
being changed while she was in the

the boys disappearance, Mrs. Lewen
testified, she rode around on street
cars, but she had no other refuge.

THE QUESTION OF APOLOGY

II promise you" said AIr. Hard
ing, in accepting the Republican nom
ination for the presidency, formal
and effective peace so quickly as
Republican congress can pass its dec
1aration for a Republican executive
TO sign"
After the best Republican minds"
IN congress have been at work for
about a year and a half trying to
frame this simple declaration" how
ever, they appear to have become
hopelessly split on the subject. 1t
seems that the house Republicans
now believe that the Republicans in
the senate in 1920 led them into
adopting a resolution that amounted
to nothing less than an apology TO
Germany for declaring war against
her. So they construe the senate
resolution repeating the state of war.
President Harding who, as a mem
ber Of the senate, voted for that res
olution, Is declared now TO agree with
the house that the measure he and
the other Republicans in congress
presented to President Wilson might
give the impression Of apologizing to
the foe. In short, that its adoption
was a case Of leaping before look
ing.
Nevertheless, senate Republicans
stand pat on their resolution for re-
peal Of the war declaration. House
Republicans are for a resolution that
simply" declares the war at an end.
AS pointed out, however, the situ-
alton IS far from simple" With
each house having a simple resolu-
ton Of its own and being simply de-
termined TO stand by it TO the simple
end, the resultant complexity is de-
clared to have the administration
deeply perplexed.
The seriousness Of the Republican
action in placing before President
Wilson n peace resolution adopted
by both houses in the sixty-sixth
congress and containing all the Inn
perfectons-and perhaps more-that
are now complained Of, speaks for
itself

ARCTIC EXPLORER WHO
SPENT WINTER OFF CAPE
SERGE ARRIVES AT NOME

Nome, Alaska, June 20. - Roald
Amundsen, the explorer, whose ship,
the Maude, wintered off Cape Serge,
Siberia, arrived in Nome today and
will leave for Seattle on the first
steamer, he announced. The ship lost
a propeller in the ice during the win
ter and will be towed to Nome this
summer for repairs.
The explorer noted for his discovery
Of the South Pole and his many Arc
tic and Antarctic voyages said he
would continue his efforts to reach
the North Pole by drifting with Arctic
ice floes as soon as repairs to his ves'
sci were completed
He spent the winter on board the
Maude with one native and three
white companions, and said the party
experienced few vicissitudes. He
reached Nome on the trading schooner,
Herman, which had picked him up at
East Cape, Siberia.
With the explorer were the daughter
of Charles Carpenter, Siberian trader
and q Chuchuk Eskimo girl whom ne
