 The policy of the Atlantic and Pa cific in fighting the taxes which it justly owes and should pay, is work ing great hardship on the people of this county. But time evens all things. This company will have to pay their taxes in the end, and in ad- dition will have to pay the interest and costs of court. When that time comes our people will enter upon an era of prosperity such as no other county in the Territory can hope for. The rate of taxation will be merely nominal-our warrants will be at par. and those who work for the county can afford to do so much cheaper than at the present time, when they are paid i'll paper at twenty-five per cent discount.-St. Johns Herald

During the eighteen months there has been only nine deaths in Flagstaff from natural causes. Four of these were grown persons and the other five were children, two of whom were in fants. This is very small death rate for this period of time, and considering the population of the town, which is from one thousand to twelve hundred. no one can doubt Flagstaff being as healthy a town as there is west of the Mississippi iriver.-Flagstaff Democrat.

with it are not the men to blame? If
it is true, as Mr.. Allon says, that the
present system produces literary wom-

cookery, it will probably be found, on
investigation, that it is precisely those
species of educated female that the un-

female education is all wrong, if Mr..
Allen says it is, but if he is to set it
right let him consider whether the best
way to go about it is not to try and

Decay. tho Universal Law.

Let anything in nature become hfeless
and inactive and decay follows as a usual
sequence. Decay is the universal law. Can
you wonder when a person feels constantly
worn out and more than half dead, that de-
cay of the lungs or kidneys sets in. They
say that decay of the lungs consumption
and decay of the kidneys (Bright's disease)
is incurable. Who says SO! Only those
experimental doctors who have failed.
Don't despair. While there's life, there's
hope! In checking decay of the lungs or
kidneys, in preventing further liberation,
it is essential that all blood impurities
should be removed, and an Alternative infu-
ence eXerted upon the whole system. The
appetite and digestion must both be i'm
