r OOKING back through the
nists of the dim and distant
ages, let us say that we see
- sick man-in Egypt. He is
making ready to take some
medicine, and he utters these words:
May Isis heal me, as she healed
Horus of all his ills! Oh, Isis, free
me from all bad and horrible things!
Save me from the god and goddess
of sickness, and from the demon who
is hurting me now"
It was common thing for Egyp-
tianS to ask the goddess to help them
get well. During long period, they
mixed magic with their medicine.
Isis, in their belief, held power over
the cure of disease.
The Egyptians used herbs and
other things when they prepared medi-
cine. Sometimes, though not always,
the remedies had merit.
Wounds and bruises were treated
by pressing fresh meat on the injured
parts, and the next day a honey oint-
ment" was applied.

LARGEST GONDOLA
READY FOR FLIGHT.
Sent to Dayton for Equip
ment to Be Used in Stra-
tosphere Exploit.

The largest gondola yet built for
stratospheric exploration has been
completed at Midland, Mich, and now
is en- route to Dayton, Ohio. to be
equipped for the proposed National
Geographic Society-Army Air Corps
stratosphere flight next Summer, 1t
was announced today by the society.
The gondola, made Of magnesium
alloy lighter than aluminium, Is a
hollow metal ball feet in diameter.
In it will be sealed the two men who
will compose the crew of the balloon
when the attempt it made next June
to ascend to an altitude Of 13 to IA
miles above the earth.
At Dayton, home of the Air Corps
Materiel Division, hundreds of pounds
of delicate scientific instruments,
cameras and other equipment will be
installed in the gondola under direc-
ton of Capt. Albert w. Stevens and
Capt. Orvil A. Anderson, commander
and pilot chosen for the flight.
The gondola then will be shipped to
Rapid City, S. Oak. near which the
starting point for the flight is located.
The new balloon, now being con-
structed, will be far larger than any
the world has seen. The bag. now
under construction at Akron. Ohio,
will have a capacity of 100000 cubic
feet. as compared with the 100000
cubic feet of the 1884 National
Geographic Army balloon which burst
and crashed in Nebraska.
Many Improvements. are being in
corporated in the new bag as result
of experience with the balloon of last
year. up to that time the largest ever
built. The most important difference
is to he the use of helium gas instead
of hydrogen. Helium, which can
neither burn nor explode, never has
been used In stratosphere exploration

WHITE PAPER
RELEASED BY
GREAT BRITAIN

LONDON, June 10 UP)-- A gov
crnment white paper yesterday de-
scribed the new British-German
naval agreement, limiting future
strength of the reich navy to 35 per
cent of the British empire total, as
& contribution of greatest impor-
tance in arms limitation.
The white paper stipulated that
the 35 to 100 Anglo-German naval
ratio is permanent"
It was said on good authority that
the new agreement permits Ger
many to build a maximum tonnage
of about 100000 which will still
guarantee France naval superiority
over the reich. The superiority will
be from 30 to 40 per cent.
A British spokesman emphasized
that the agreement does not mean
that British condones Germany's
breach of the military clauses of the
Versailles treaty. but instead takes
advantage Of the opportunity to
confine that breach to its narrowest
possible limits.

MATHES SAYS
CLOSING OUT
SALE GENUINE

1t has been authentically stated
by J. II. Mathes. owner of the mems
and women'5 furnishing store at 52S
Main street. that the sale now 60
ing on at this business institution
is a bona Tide closing out sale.
Mr.. Mathes states, because of
failing heath. I have been advised
by medical authority that I will
have TO vacaJc the valley and move
elsewhere to cooler climatic condi-
tions; especially so in view of the
fact that my heart will no longer
stand the terrific heat of Imperial
Valley summers.
This medical advice was given
to me last year at the time we
started a genuine closing out sale.
However, the drought came and
people stopped buying. as we all
know, and i was then that we de-
cided that perhaps another time
would be better to dispose Of our
stock. Therefore, we waited until
the beginning Of the present closing
out sale. which has been met with
terrific response from the buying
public. The public of Imperial
Valley has my personal word that
we are going to close out on this
sale and firalIy lock our doors for
ever. Whatever stock there may
be left at the time-limit set for my
leaving the valley will be disposed
Of in a job lot"
It is first hand information gain
ed by representative of this paper
and Mr.. Mathes is actually closing
out his present stock of merchan-
disc, and oiSO that values to be had
at this store are most remarkable
in that most merchandise being
sCld could not be replaced at to-
days market quotations.
Mr.. Mathes desires the buying
public to know that he fully ap-
preciates past patronage and that
if health permitted he would con-
tinue in business in FL Cenrto for
an indefinite period
