URGES MORE CARE
IN |NSUR|NG RISKS
J. F. Ripper Proposes Coop
Grafton in Obtaining
Clearer Records.

Cooperative effort should be made
reputation of every man engaged in
any commercial or Industrial enter
prise and definite steps taken to see
that those who have not a clear and
clean record are neither supplied
with credit nor insurance.
]. +. Ripper. an insurance official,
made this declaration yesterday be-
fore the monthly luncheon Of the
Insurance Club Of Washington at the
Arlington Hotel, during an address
on Common Interests" in which he
discussed the parallel interests of
companies, agents and the public on
the subject Of insurance.
Loose credit in the hands of a man
with a looser conscience is a strong
temptation to crime when the man is
in a tight place and has an insurance
policy to draw upon" stated Mr..
Riper. IF bankers and merchants
generally would realize the truth and
Importance of this, what a direct
bearing it has upon the general cost
of insurance and what a menace it
Is to the lives and property of the
community, there would be little diff
ficulty in securing their corporation
to stamp out the evil"
Much Of the criticism of premium
rates, Mr.. Ripper continued, lis only
half baked and nonsenSica1.'
Mr.. Ripper said that $4,000 lives are
lost through fire every year throughout
the country, and property estimated at
S4s5, 100000 was destroyed in the United
States last year. The companies,
through the National Board of Fire Tn
derwriters, are constantly investigating
suspicious fires and working for the ap-
prehension and conviction Of firebugs
he stated. BY the diminution of fire
waste, he added, the cost of insurance
will be reduced, and capital will be re-
leased for this purpose.

UTAH CIGARETTE LAW
HITS FOUR BIG CITIZENS
Former G. o. P. Senatorial Can
didate Among Those Arrested for
Smoking in Public.
BY the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
SALT LAKE CITY, February 2t.-
Four prominent Salt Lake City citi-
zens today faced formal charges of
violation Of the Utah anti-cigarette
law after their arrest yesterday In
local cafe by deputy sheriffs. The
accused are Ernest Bamberger. last
fall republican candidate for United
States senator; Ambrose n. Mckay,
general manager of the Salt Lake
City Tribune; Edgar Newhouse. an
official of the American Smelling and
Refining Company. and ]. G. Lynch,
local capitalist. All but Mckay were
arrested as they sat at tables in the
dining room; the newspaper publisher
was paying his bill. The violation
charged Is smoking in public place,
prohibited by a section of UtahS s
famous antitobacco act
Charges that the arrests were the
result of IL "frame-up" to discredit
the law and aid in the movement for
it's repeal by the Legislature now in
session were vehemently denied at
the office of the sheriff. who said last
night that his deputies had orders
to arrest all violatorS. and did not
know the identity of the men taken in
custody. All four defendants were
released on their own recoSnizance
after appearing before d local maEis-
tratc.
Since the election of Sheriff Harries
last November d persistent efort mas
been made to carry out the anti
cigarette law. and raids have been
frequent. Harries was brought out
as candidate of the so-called re-
form element. and the legality OF his
election Is now before the courts on
the ground that undue church in
fucnCe was eXerted in his behalf at
the polls. in violation of the state
laws.

Jar of Honey
Retains Scent
$500 Years

Discovery in Tutankhamen's tomb
Of perfumes which still retain their
scent recalls the equally amazing find
in 1906 of a jar of honey. still liquid
and still preserving it's characteristic
scent after $500 years!
This remarkable announcement was
made in communication to the Ma
Baikie. The honey was found in the
tomb of Yuaa and Thuaa. father and
mother of that Queen Tyi. whose in
fuence played so great a part in Ak
henatens religious reformation.
The tomb was intact and the OBJ
JectS 1t contained were as perfectly
preserved as though they had only
been shut up a few weeks BEFORE"
Mr.. Baikie wrote. IAN observer de-
scribed his sensations on entering the
place as being very much like those
Of Il man who enters a town house
which has been shut up for the sum-
mer.
"Armchairs stood about. beautifully
carved and decorated with gold. the
cushions on one of them stuffed with
fectly preserved that they might have
been sat upon or tossed about with
out injury. Two beds of fine design
decorated with gold occupied another
part of the chamber. while light
chariot in perfect preservation stood
in corner.
"One looked from one article to an
other with the feeling that the entire
human conception of time was wrong.
These were the things of yesterday,
of year or two ago"

Better Than Calomel
Thousands Have Discovered
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets
Are a Harmless Substitute

DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets = the
substitute for calomel-are a mild but
sure laxative, and their effect on, the
liver is almost instantaneous. These
little o1ive-colored tablets are the re-
suit of DR.. Edwards determination not
to treat liver and bowel complaints
with calomel.
The pleasant little tablets do the good
that calomel does, but have no bad
after effects. They don't injure tho
teeth like strong liquids or calomel:
They take hold Of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense Of the teeth? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. 1t is best not to
take calomel. Let DR.. Edwards Olive
Tablets take its place.
Headaches, "dulIness" and that lazy
feeling come from constipation and a
disordered liver. Take DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel 'logy and
.sheavy." They .clear" elouded brain

SEEK MANS IDENTITY,
Chicago Police Not Satisfied Hand
less Body Is That of S. T. Hawkins

CHICAGO. February 21-Two distinct
attempts were to be made today to
identify positively the handless body of
a slain man found buried in a snow
bank near Geneva, Ill. more than a
week ago. one by Robert Daniel Haw-
kins Of Kalamazoo. Mich. who believed
it might be that of his son, Samuel
Floyd Hawkins. and the other by Chi
cago police, who expressed an opinion
that 1t was that of Charles Lancaster,
missing Chicago garage employe.
The mystery surrounding the victims
identity, thought to have been cleared
yesterday by the announcement that
tnree former friends had identified the
body as that Of Hawkins, today ap-
peared not to have been solved
Police stated the three who were said
to have recognized in the features of
the body a resemblance to those of the
friend, Hawkins. who has disappeared,
last night were not SO positive.

ANCIENT TEMPLE FOUND
Chaldean Structure Was Repaired
by King Nebuchadnezzar.
By the Associated Press.


PHILADELPHIA, February 21.-An
ancient temple whose history goes SO
far back beyond the reign of Pharaoh
Tutankhamen that nobody knows ex-
actly how old it Is, has been found
in Ur, the Chaldean city, which was
the home of Abraham, in Babylonia,
DR.. George B. Gordon, director of the
University of Pennsylvania Museum,
announced last night.
The discovery, according to DR..
Gordon, was made in excavations
conducted jointly by the British
museum and University of Pennsyl-
vania museum. A letter from the ex-
cavators brought the news of the dis
covery.
Sir Frederic Kenyon. director of
the British museum. who is touring
the United States, was in conference
with DR.. Gordon yesterday.
"The latest reports from the exca-
Yators," said Sir Frederick, "indi-
cate that some ancient temple, built
about three millenniums before Christ
was found. Repairs were made by
King Nebuchadnezzar.
However, the work is in fits early
stages and 1t Is impossible to say
how much history will be revealed

excavations"

MARRIED HALF-SISTER.
Tutankhamen's Family Tree Is
Snarled Up Genealogical Chart.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, February 21.-
The tangled skein of the threads OF
romance that run through the back
ground of the life of Tutankhamen,
buried this thirty centuries In his
tomb in the Valley of the kngs'
Egypt, were unfoIded here by Dr. Fl.
Il. Lutz, Egyptologist of the UnlVer-
sity Of California.
DR.. Lutz produced the marriage
scarab of Amentohep and Til, Wnicn
rests on shelf in case in the An,
thropological Museum of the Afhliated
Colleges, a branch of the university
which he claims is the only Amento-
hep scarab in America.
'woven in its hieroglyphics is the
story of a great love of Pharoah OF
Egypt" said DR.. LutZ. ''Amentohep
was the father of Tutanknameh' anu
to understand Tutankhamen one
must know the story of his father
King Amentohep, and his love for TIL
whom he made queen of Egypt.
Til Not His Mother.
"Tii was not the mother Of Tutankh-
amen. Amentohep, called the mag
nif1cent. had a harem like the kings
before him, and Tutanknamen vas
the son of one of his inferior wives
For Til was his first wife, his queen,
daughter of a captain who propapiy
led mercenary troops.
"Tutankhamen, however, married
the third daughter OF the son os
Amentohep and Til. His n1elllies
were thereby doubly entwined with
the fortunes of the king. his father
who dared to marry commoner.
Perhaps it makes the relationship
little clearer to say that Iutankna a
men married the daughter OF ms
Amentohep the fourth, more often
called Akhnaton, thus became the
law.
Family Marriages Allowed.
"Those who cannot easily visualize
family trees may get lost in this
Egyptian genealogical forest, where
1t was the custom for sister ana
brother to wed, but no one who has
ever glowed to a romance will find 1t
difficult to follow the story or
Amentohep and Til.
"Amentohep waited until he be-
came king and then married I'll, ana
made her his first wife and no
the time Of the marriage Til was a
lady in waiting at the court.
The fruit of this union, according
to DR.. Lutz, Akhnaton. the rather or
Tutankhamen's wife, was half-mad
genius known as a hereto king. who
proclaimed one god. instead of many.
He had seven daughters, and the
third daughter became the wife or
Tutankhamen, and he succeeded to
the throne through her.
Tutankhamen Was Atom.
"Tutankhamen accepted the relig-
ious doctrine of one god while he
was under the influence of Akhnaton,'
said DR.. LutZ, but later broke away
from it.
1T was the custom of that period
to have marriage scarabS made, and
the one now at the University OF
California is one of the few out OF
all those that announced the wed :
ding Of this king to his love, Til. lie
He Is too magnificent for that. Per-
baps he was proud of the fact that
he dared to smash convention. So
he inscribed on the scarab the name
! of herr father and mother. and these
names proclaimed the fact that she
was commoner."

SPOILS OF WAR SOURCE OF
WORRY TO GOVERNMENT.

War trophies brought back from
France by the A. E. F. after their
capture from the Germans are prov
ing an increasing embarrassment to
the war department, particularly
with the approaching disposition OF
the port of Newark, N. j., army base
site and facilities. A large portion
of nearly 100000 big and little
cannon, rifles, machine gans and 9TH
er fighting equipment of the enemy
r stored at that place. The remain
der is stored at Norfolk, Va.
Efforts through two years to get
legislation through congress for the
disposition of the war trophies to
the various states have failed. A
new bill is in process of formulation
at the war department. The Newark
property probably will be disposed of
within a few weeks, and as the war
department has no funds for the
transfer or storage elsewhere of the
trophy material, an agreement with
the purchasers of the Newark site,
permitting the trophies to remain
where they are until congress acts,
probably will be necessary.
The smaller trophies are stored ir
warehouses and are in good order
The larger items, including 2,191
guns, ranging from ten 88-millimetel
weapons up to 161 'heavies" of the
245-millimeter type, are stored in the
open with 1000 German war vehicle!
of many kinds. These, according t.
army reports, are rapidly deteriorat
ing. The smaller pieces include 20,
600 German rifles and 10000 machine
guns.

FIRECRACKERS FORBIDDEN ON
FORESTS.

The use of ~firecrackers and other
Fourth of July explosives are for
hidden within the boundaries of the
national forest, and all recreational
visitors or tourists who are planning
on spending the Fourth in the noun
tains are earnestly requested by For
est Supervisor B. w. Clark to CO.
operate in this matter and refrain
from taking such explosives on these
trips 1t can readily be seen that
firecrackers used by children on pic
mic grounds in the timber or thrown
from passing automobiles in the brush
may result in fire. All visitors,
therefore, making trips to the Gala
tin river, Middle Greek, Bear, Rocky
or Bridger canyon, or any of the
other favorable camping grounds are
urged not to take f~irecrackers on such
trips. Patrolmen on the forest will
enforce this ruling by arrests.

CONSOLIDATION OF
LABORATORIES

At the last meeting of the legis-
lature the appropriations for state
board of health work were markedly
cut. This was particularly true in
regard to the appropriations for the
laboratories. The state board OF
health felt that if it was TO continue
to function efficiently there must be
no decrease in the activities of its la
boratories. Accordingly, the ques-
tion of securing financial assistance
was taken up with the international
health board of the Rockefeller Foun-
dation; as a result of this $4,000 was
secured for the hygienic laboratory
at Helena.
It was decided by the board 10 con-
solidate the water laboratory with the
hygienic laboratory at Helena. This
has been done. DIR. John x. New
man., who for three years has been
professor of b~acteriology at the State
University, Missoula, has accepted a
position as director Of the hygienlc
laboratory. H. B. FOote, who for the
past year has been taking a special
course at Harvard University to pre-
pare himself for the work in Mon
tana, has been appointed sanitary en-
gineer and will direct the water work.
Prof. w. M. Cobleigh, of BOzeman,
the pioneer in water work in Mon
tana, and who has done so much to
put the water work on an efficient
basis, will act as consultant in food
and water work.
1t is expected that with the assist
.ance of the Rockefeller Foundation,
DR. Noguchi's prophylactic serum for
spotted fever will be manufactured at
the consolidated laboratories in the
state board of helath building in Hell
ena. Arrangements for the manu-
facture of this selum have not yet
been fully completed, but it is hoped
that this serum will be ready for free
distribution before the next spotted
fever season.
The spotted fever season is about
closed. There have been 80 cases re-
ported in the state this year, and one
case OF tick paralysis.
Don't forget the meeting of the
Montana Public Health association OF
July 9 and 10 in Butte, two days be-
fore the Montana Medical association
meeting. A full program will b'
sent out in a few days.
