Missouri voters are today selecting candidates for national and state offices with prohibition as the outstanding isue. The league of nations is also a principle issue in the Democratic contest for the United States Senatorial nomination. Disclosures incident to the presidential campaign exposures are expected to play part in the voting. The Association of Missouri Republicans organized as a result of the disclosures, prepared a statement endorsing all candidates not aligned with national committeeman Jacob J. Babler and state chairman W. L. Cole; whose names were mentioned in connection with the Lowden and Harding funds funds, respectively. Former Federal Judge Henry S. Priest, one of the five candidates for the Democratic Senatorial nomination made the race on a "wet" and antileague platform, while Charles M. Hay, a St. Douis lawyer, declared himself in favor of prohibition and the league pact as written at Versailles. Breckinbrige Long, former Assistant Secretary of State and the Rev. Arthur Lindsay campaign Phohi-League and Enforcement platforms. George H. Scrutch, owner of the Sedalia Democrat, declared for the covenant and a modification of the Volstead law. In the Republican SCenatorial race Dwight S. Davis, formerly a colonel in the 35th Division, announced his opposition to prohibition, while his opponent, Senator Seldcn P. Spencer, stress his vote for the Volstead law over President Wilson's veto. James L. Minnis, a lawyer, announced he favors law enforcement. Prohibition also has been injected into the Democratic Gubernatorial contest. Representative Frank M. Atkinson, a lawyer, is an admitted "dry." Charles H. Mayer took no pronounced stand on the question. The Republican side: Arthur M. Hydex is an avowed dry, while his opponent, E. E. McJimsey, owner of the Springfield Republican, like Mayer has never committed himself. WILL FIGHT LABOR DAY v Benton Harbor, Mich., August 3.?

KEPT HER AWAKE The Terrible Pains in Back and Sides. Cardni Gave Relief. Marksville, La.?Mrs. Alice Johnson, of this place, writes: "For one year I suffered with an awiul misery in my back and sides. My left side was hurting me all the time. The misery was something awful. I could not do anything, not even sleep at night. It kept me awake most of the night... I took different medicines, but nothing did me any good or relieved me until 1 took Cardui. . . 1 was not able to do any of my work tor one year and I got worse all the time, < was confined to my bed off and on. I got to bad with my back that when I stooped I down I was not able to straighten up ' again ... I decided I would try Cardui 1 ... By time I had taken the entire bottle I was feeling pretty good and could ' straighten up and my pains were nearly til gone. I shall always praise Cardui.

NC-133 1 JAPAN REALLY BACK NUMBER Writer Brings Forward Arguments to Prove That the Chinese Are the More Progressive. It may strike the western reader as simply funny, but more than one Chinese friend has assured me that It is the Japanese people who are renlly conservative. And they back up their assertion by evidence other than the way In which Japan has clung through all historic vicissitudes, to a primitive theocracy, John Dewey writes In Asia Magazine. They point out, for example that a thousand years ago the Japanese borrowed the present style of clothing and of household furnishing, of sitting and sleeping on mats, from China; that China has changed several times, moving constantly In the direction of practical utility, of Ingenious adaptation of means to needs. The Chinese cuisine is another argument It is doubtless the most extensive in the world In the variety of material employed for food, and also the most varied In Its combinations. Academic analysis may despise arguments drawn from food, clothing, shelter and furnishings. But wThen one notes the variety and Ingenuity of the processes and appliances used in dally life and in the crufts, one is certain that the Chinese mind Is naturally observant and adaptive. But it seems unnecessary to labor the question. Many charges have been brought against the Chinese, but no one has ever accused them of stupidity. Their undoubted conservatism Is something to be explained rather than an explanation of anything. TO PRISON FOR WITCHCRAFT Canadian Authorities Revive Ancient Statute That Will Appear Absurd to Modern Understanding. It has been a little mdre than 200 years since anyone was convicted of witchcraft on this continent, savs the Columbus Dispatch, and we supposed thiit there would never again be any more convictions. But It se^ms that such prosecutions have been revived, for here comes a report from a Ganadlnn court to the effect that a young woman over there has lately been sentenced to prison for "practicing witchcraft," for all the world like the accusations that used to be filed against people in this country. The young woman in this case claimed to be able to tell who committed a certain theft In her neighborhood. She said a farmer's oats had been stolen by a man and a boy; that thay drove a bay mare, and proceeded westward after the robbery, and that they would be found at a certain place, about 40 miles away. The officers found her story to be true, and arrested the parties who robbed the farmer, but as the young woman who gave the infoijnation was in no position to know the fjgcts she related except through" communing with-"the spirits," people began talking about her being a witch, with the result that an ancient statute was invoked and the girl prosecuted and sent to Jail for her pains in aiding the officers of the law. If It were not all duly recorded in the newspapers we could not believe it. "Rent Free" Houses. At Llewelyn, Pa., there are GO empty houses, which for years have stood untenanted, a veritable deserted village in the beautiful valley of the West Branch of Chester creek. Even the war with its demands, failed to repeople the town. About a month ago some of the houses were rented and a Jitney line was established between the town and Chester. Still there remained 60 houses that were fast going into decay by reason of not being occupied. The owners conceived the idea of having the properties fixed up by giving them rent free to workmen who would repair them and take car^? of them. The only stipulations mode in selecting tenants tire unii iiir.v ut: respecuiiJii; unu inrilty people who will take pride In maintaining and Improving the houses and that they agree to make all repairs at their own expense. Perfumed Petrol. Will motorcurs In the future perfume our streets with the seent of at> tar of roses Instead of the evll-smellIng mixture which offends our nostrils as they pass? The question Is suggested by the statement that a quarter of a million gallons of motor spirit can be produced In the Hyderabad state of India by distilling the flowers of the mowra tree. Mowra flowers very rich In sugar, and a ton ol^Vie dried flowers produces as much as 00 gallons of 0." pur cent pure spirit. They have long been In use for the preparation of a native alcoholic liquor; but only a small proportion of the trees available fg needed for this purpose. Recourceful Prevaricator. A Lancashire man, who was afraid of his wife, arranged to go to the races with some friends, and explained to her that he was going fishing. On his way he called at a fish shop and asked the proprietor to send sotne fish home. Klsh was very scarce that day, and a lot of cods' heads were delivered. When fiuhby returned home, after an enjoyable time, he said to his wife: "Well, lnss, did you get the fish I sent you?" "I got a lot of cods' heads," was her reply. /'Quite right," was the retort. "You lever saw such fish in your life as we lad to tf.ekle today. I'.efore you could and 'em, you had to pull their bloom* ng heads off!"? London Answrrs.
