So EASY TO GET
RID Of HEADACHES
"Fruit-a-tiVes" SmOOthes Away The Pain

Headaches are always the result of
poisoned blood. If food is not
properly digested; if the bowels are
not regular; or if the kidneys are
weak and irritated; then impurities
are taken up by the blood and carried
to the nerves of the head causing
dreadful headaches.
The Fruit Treatment is the most
effective means of keeping the blood
pure. "Fruit-a-tives'' the wonderful
combination of the juices of apples,
oranges, figs and runes-intensifed
and combined with tonics-are
complete fruit treatment for
Headaches, whether the headaches
are due to Neuralgia, Nervousness,
Biliousness, Indigestion, Constipa-
ton or Irritated Kidneys.
Just try the Fruit Treatment for
your Headaches, in the form of
"Fruit-a- tives". Your druggist has
them. 25c. and SOC. boX-or sent

LEGION BOYS SPONSOR
R. {. MEMBERSHIP DRIVE

The American Legion will this year
have charge of the Red Cross mem
bership drive in Wolf Point. Instead
of conducting a house to house cam
paign as has been done they will
have booths at the theatre and at the
dances this week, soliciting the vol
untary contributions of those who
are interested in the work of the Red
Cross. The drive lasts from Armis-
tice Day until Thanksgiving and peo-
pie are urged to bear this in mind
and be ready to give what they feel
they can for the benefit of so worthy
a cause.
In a message to the people of Amer
lea, President Calvin Coolidge urges
the universal acceptance of the in
vitation to join the American Red
Cross during the annual roll call to
be nationally observed beginning
this Armistice Day and lasting until
Thanksgiving day. GAS individuals
it is our duty and privilege to become
a part of this organization" the
President states.
The Presidents message in full fol-
lows:
"The American Red Cross has be-
come an inmate part of u national
life. Under it's Congressional Char
ter it is a semi-official agent of the
Government, but it belongs neverthe-
less to the people. 1t is the instru-
ment of the epople in giving express
sion to the lofty, unselfish humani-
tarianism, the practical idealism,
characteristic of this Nation from its
humble beginning.
"The American Red Cross has been
tested in war and the aftermath of
war; in fire, flood and famine, and
in the emergencies of peace. 1t has
been proved an indispensable instru-
ment for the alienation of suffering
and the betterment of human life in
our own and other lands.
1--WE should make Enthusiastically
clear our faith in this instrument we
have created for rendering service.
AS individuals it is our duty and priv
ilege to be a part of this organiza-
ton.
yearly, from Armistice Day to
Thanksgiving Day, the American Red
Cross invites all the people to enter
its ranks. 1t enrolls them for service.
AS President of the United States
and as President of the American
Red Cross / urge universal accep-
tance of the invitation to join. The
Red Cross needs and should have
your generous support. Let its good
work become your good works"

METAL TAX CARRIES
STRONG in This co.

The official canvass Of the can
wasting board Of Roosevelt county
shoys no change of any Importance
from the figures in the table on this
page. The official totals on the con
stitutional amendments and initiative
measures are as follows:
Initiative Measure No. %, provid-
ing for a tax on the gross ore pro-
duction of metal mines. For the
measure 1873, against the measure
$40.
Measure No. 81, to abolish the
presidential primary, For 1922,
Against 500.
Amendment regulating qualifica-
tions of county superintendents. For
the measure 1905, against 422.
Providing for bonds for soldiers
bonus, for 949, against 723.
Providing for the acceptance Of
gifts to the university of Montana,
for 1859, against 466.
Peculiarities
A study Of the results of the cleo
ton and particularly observation of
canvass of the individual ballots
brings out numerous pe~culiarities of
voters which shows that one of the
needs of the electoral body as a whole
is a better knowledge of what they
are voting on and how to vote. Just
a couple of instances are sufficient
to illustrate the point.
DoCn1a 1aefri,oo. h rr-.,4o - IL
name of a person in place of the
name printed on the ballot often fail
to make an X in the square in front
of the name they have written in.
The law makes it impossible to count
such a vote. No doubt people writ
ing in names often wonder why they
find no vote recorded in the returns
for the name they wrote in and for
whom they thought they had voted.
Voting for La Toilette
One presidential elector at the head
of the democratic ticket was G. E.
La Toilette. Mr.. La Toilette was
very fortunate in his name, because
in this county alone he received
some 60 votes more than any of the
other three electors. No other diff
ferences between the electors on the
various tickets was more than five
or ten, so it was evident that about
go people fancied they were voting
for the fighting senator from Wis
consin. They didn't understand just
how it was that his name was mixed
with a number Of Othevs Int +bara
it was La Toilette good and plain,
and they proposed to vote for him
in spite of the fact that his initials
were G. E. instead of R. M.
La Follette's Combined Vote
1t may be noted from the table
hat the La Toilette votes, voted in
he La Toilette column, 921, added :
the La Toilette votes in the Farm
Labor column, 184, are considerably
n excess of the total vote cast for
Coolidge.

TRAFFIC OFFICER IS
DOING GOOD WORK HERE

A marked Improvement in the mat
ter of road courtesy and law has been
noted since the installation of Robert
Sanders as traffic policeman with a
motorcycle with which to patrol the
roads Of the county. He is right on
the job and yet is always courteous
and reasonable in his reminders to
people Of the forgotten rule
Driving on the right side of the
road is the rule now, and there is. no
such racing as was formerly noticed
on the roads. Thirty-five miles an
hour is fast enough for any car to
travel save under exceptional circum-
stances and since Mr. Sanders is on
the job that is as fast as cars travel
Dimming lights is another thing which
has not been so neglected since Mr.
Sanders is there to remind people
that lights are made so they can be
dimmed and that the Colorado law re-
Quires this dimming even on "regula-
tion" lights Front and back license
plates and tail lights are other i'm
provements noted.
