THE MOTHER OF MEDICINE

Isis, the Queen and afterwards the
Goddess, was called the Mother Of
Medicine" In ancient Egypt, Gem
Euries before Christ, women were
skilled in medicine. They knew the
great value of medicinal plants
Hippocrates, the Father Of Medi-
cine.' many centuries later, knew less
of the merit of vegetable drugs than
did the women of ancient times.
Lydia E. Pinkham nearly flfty years
ago, gave to women her Vegetable.
Compound, now known everywhere
as Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound. This is a woman's medi-
cine for woman's ailments, prepared
from medicinal plants.

TO RE-MARRY is THE OBJECT

During his sojoWn in Pratt while
holding District Court, Judge Hay
received a,letter which he stated to
be one of the most truthful that he
ever had in his experience as judge,
In the letter the girl writer states a
hypothetical case of young girl who
in 1920 married a man who disap-
peared on the same day and has never
been heard from since. The girl is
now in love with another man and
wishes to marry him but cannot be-
cause Of the bonds of the first mar
riage. After stating the case in con-
siderable detail the writer says, "In
fact l am the girl and wish my mar
riage annulled in order that | may re-
marry"
Judge Hay says that often this is
the real reason for divorce proceed
ings, but in no case has he before
known the plaintiff to state that as a
reason.-Pratt Union.

GAVE SIX BASKET
BALLS TO SCHOOLS
Paul Light Sees to 1t That Children
of Grades Are Supplied With
Basket Balls.

We believe that the people of Lib
eral should know the interest that is
being taken by one of her citizens in
the schools. Paul W. Light, who is
member of the school board, and
a hard worker for everything that is
for the good of the schools of Liberal,
takes more than ordinary interest in
the welfare of the children attending.
Tuesday morning he went to one of
the local sporting goods houses and
purchased six basket balls, two for
each of the grade schools, one for
the boys of each school, and one for
the girls The initials of each school
will be sewed on the balls so that
Identification will be easy.
The grade schools and Junior High
have been taking some acute inter-
est in athletics, especially football,
this year, and it is hoped that the
keen competition for honors will con-
tinue during the basket bah season
as well as in track and baseball in
the spring.

ploye for all the time that he is
not actually on states business.
consolidate all boards and COM
missions relative to public health and
hygiene.

The old tabernacle at the corner
of Sixth and Sherman will be used

court. It is not the best in the world
but it is the best that can be found
in Liberal until the new high school

Coach Stricken called the boys out
for the first basket ball practice last
night and he is elated over the pros

trim for the season.
The class teams are being organic

nament some time this month, in
which the coach expects to select his
material for the varsity" and second
teams.
The schools have been given splen-
did support in football by the bust
ness men and citizens Of the city, and
there should be no tagging now as the
basket ball season is about to open,
and some real hard games are being
matched. When Coach Strickler says
that he has a fine prospect for a
strong and winning team, we should
take him at his word, get behind the
high school and do our part in making
a winning team

PARIS HAS ITS ABsyNTHE

Abslnthe, the forbidden poison that
before the war was said to be threat
ening the French race, is back on the
market under other names and can
De bought at any cafe in Paris. Only
now IT is yellow instead of green.
A walk along the grand boulevards
any afternoon reveals numbers OF
men ana women letting the yellow
liquid drip into glasses of water,
turning milky as 1t drops. It has the
same taste and connoisseurs say the
same effect as the green absinthe OF
pre-war days.
French police are disturbed, as the
law against absinthe does not pro-
vloe Tor the suppression of its sub
stitutes.
The real harm in the drink comes
not from the amount OF alcohol in 1t
but from the presence of wormwood.
When an ordinary drink cIinks home
IN mans stomach the immediate re-
sponse to the shock is a sudden con-
traction of the stomach pores. This
contraction protects the drinker in a
measure from the effects of what he
has imbibed.
The wormwood in absinthe and it's
imltators prevents this sudden con-
traction. On the contrary the worm
wood distends the pores of the stom-
ach and keeps them distended, so
that the drinkers digestive system
goes on soaking up the alcohol until
there Is no more to absorb. Guy

H. R. WOOD DENIES
ANY OPPOSITION To
HUNT CANDIDACY IN
PRIMARY ELECTION
Says In Letter That There
Is No Ground For Impli-
cation That He Ever Was
Opposed To Candidacy

In a story concerning a movement
to secure the withdrawal of former
Governor Hunt from the race for the
Democratic nomination for governor.
The Republican appears to have been
misled as to the attitude OF Hon. Ho-
mer r. Wood of Prescott who, IL had
been reported. was urging the aban-
donment OF the campaign by Mr..
Hunt. It was also stated that Mr..
Wood had been Joined in this effort
by Senator Roberts of Cochise and
Senator Mulford Winsor of Yuma.
A communication from Mr.. Wood
to The Republican states that his po-
sition has been misrepresented. He
writes:
Editor Arizona Republican, Sir:
My attention has just been called
to an article appearing in The Ari-
zona Republican of June s, 1922,
wherein my name is mentioned in
"s they are said to be of the
opinion that any man who attempts
to make use of the primaries as op-
posed to the Tucson conference is not
a good Democrat" As far as the
above refers to me, it Is in error,
While this is a free country, and
anyone has a perfect right to think
and believe l am opposed to the
functioning OF regular statute laws,
In opposition to individual acts, that
Is not a fact, and no one has the
moral right to say of me that I am
said to be of that opinion; and in
dis proof of same I will say that
had signed Geo. w. p. Hunts nomi-
mating petition before the above arti-
Gle came to my notice, and do not
regret my action in that respect
but would do it now If I had not
already done so.
will thank your paper for giving
this the same publicity given the
above referred article that virtual
ly brands myself, along with others,
as an anarchist: and. to say the least,
assumes the proportions of vicious.
disreputable and dishonest propa-
ganda. Respectfully,
(Signed) Fl. r. WOOD.
Dated Prescott, June 10, 1922.
