A FACE OF WAX.
The Story of a Soldier Who Lost Part of
 His Head in Battle.

The Story of Soldier Who Lost Part of
 His Head in Battle.
 A French medical journal tells of a re markable surgical operation performed upon certain Joseph Moreau, a soldier in the army of the north, whose eyes, nose, teeth and lower jaw, and, indeed, whose whole face was shot away by sliell in the battle of Bapaume, Jan- nary, 1871. Although he was left on the field for dead, he managed to stag ger to neighboring village, where he was cared for by the doctors. Later on one of the most distinguished surgeons of the day applied to the head, which was left almost without human sem- blance, a wax mask so cleverly adapted to the healthy portion of the skin as to appear quite continuous with it. This mask, as the years have passed, has be come firmly attached to the head, the skin having grown around the edges, and has permitted the unfortunate wearer to appear less an object of re- pulsion to his fellow men.
 Moreau has got quite used to breath ing through the false nostrils, and by the help of an artificial jaw, worked by portion of the original bone, he is able to eat comfortably and masticate the toughest kind of food.
 His voice has regsined it's natural quality and the sense of smell has come back to him with even more than nat ural acuteness. Of course he sees nothing through the false eyes which look out from his waxen features with glassy stare, but it is long since he has acquired the peace of mind with which blind men are so often blessed, and in all the canton of Landridies, where he lives, there is not happier man, or one more fond of telling or lis tening to a good story as he who is known as the "Man with the Wax Face" He lives modestly on his pen sion and adds to his resources by the sale of little pamphlet giving 8 sclen- tific account of his wonderful cure.

The orange tree finds a genial home in Arizona, and although but little attention has yet been paid to it's cultivation, it has been demon strated beyond doubt that the climate and soil are especially adapted to it. The facilities for making an orange orchard in these valleys are much superior to those in Florida, or even in Southern California. There is no cutting down of trees, and scarcely any ex- pense in the clearing of the land, which can be had at mere nom inal figure. Remember that or ange trees will bear within five years, and the increase in the yield is constant for at least ten years At five years an orange grove is worth 5000 an acre and increases in value steadily thereafter. For those who. desire to engage in this industry there is no more desirea- ble region than Southern Arizona, and they may look in vain else where to find conditions so favora- ble.-Enterprise.

MILES OF SALT.
An Incrustation Several Feet Thick in .
 Strange Persian Desert.

An Incrustation Several Feet Thick in .
 Strange Persian Desert.
 One of the natural curiosities of Asia is the Great Salt desert of Persia, which covers a large territory about seventy miles south of Teheran. c. D. Bid dulph, who recently visited this place, says that Darya-i-Namak is an exten- sive tract of ground, sloping on all sides toward the center, covered with an incrustation of solid salt several feet thick in most places, while in some parts it is of unknown depth. Ac- cording to Goldthwaites Geographical Magazine, it must have taken many centuries to form. As he saw it from the mountain top it stretched away for many miles, appearing like avast frozen lake. It extended as far as the eye could reach toward the south and west and glistened in the sun like sheet of glass.
 His party finally approached the mar gin of the salt plain and decided to cross it. They found swampy ground for mile or so and then entered upon the sheet of salt itself. Near the edge the incrustation was thin and the salt sheet was soft, sloppy and mixed with earth. At distance of three or four miles from the edge the salt looked like solid ice as it is seen on any pond in northern attitudes during the winter. The surface was not quite level, but re sembled that of ice which had partially thawed and then frozen again after slight fall of snow. Of the sohdity of the incrustation there could be no doubt, for camels, horses and mules were travelling over it without vibra- ton of any kind being perceptible.
 After marching for about eight miles upon this unusual surface the party halted to examine its composition. They tried by means of hammer and an iron tent peg, to break off block of salt to carry away as a specimen. The salt, however, was so very hard that they could make no impression upon it. They managed at last in another place to chip off lot of fragments which were of the purest white. In two or three days they had absorbed so much moisture that they became soft and slatey blue in color.

THE "SlNKER" HABIT.
No Hope for Man After He Has Once
 Acquired 1t.

No Hope for a Man After He Has Once
 Acquired It.
 The "sinker'' habit is dangerous and growing evil, says the New York World. You may have noticed the man with a starched flat cap, white jacket and apron baking something like biscuits on steel plate heated by gas jets, in one of the cheap eating places. When you go in and order these biscuit-like things, the waiter calls: '"Three outr' That means three sinkers. So they have come to be known as sinkers, or ''three out" A cup of surpassing coffee is always ordered at the same time. Nobody ever ate sinkers dry. Some thing must be drunk along with them to soften up the gawmy mass. In the summer time ice water is favorite ac- eompanying beverage. Ice water and sinkers form an all-star combination that will make empires rock and reason totter on her throne.
 The walters in the eating places where there are such signs as
 In that day ye shall call me ISHI;
 Ye shall no more call me BAALI,
 when asked about the effect of ''sink- ers' on the human system say nothing.
 They know better than to talk But get them outside and they'll tell you that the cigarette habit is as naught to upset the intellect compared with sinkers. The dough is made out of four, butter, lard, cream of tartar, soda and buttermilk. The dough is shaped into cakes and left to rise in something like bureau. The cakes are put on the hot steel and baked brown on one side. Then the man fips them over on the other side with his fingers and knife shaped like putty knife.
 When they are Drowned on both sides the victim of the habit tears them apart and sticks piece of butter into their entrails. They are doughy and hot, but they taste good. Half an hour later the reaction begins. The Spartan boy that stole the fox and hid it inside his shirt was rapturously happy com pared with the man who has sinkers under his waistband. The agony is awful.
 Once there was man who lost all his money one week playing poker and he had to live on butter cakes and coffee. That was a lesson to him. He always laid aside some money after that SO that he wouldn't have to come to such extremities again, no matter how hard his luck might be at cards. Sinkers saved him from gamblers doom.
 The doctors say there is no hope for man after he has once acquired the sinker habit. A drunkard may stop taking rum; an opium fiend may quit smoking; even a man who inhales cigar cite smoke may reform-there are cases on record-but the sinker maniac has nothing but padded cell and grave ahead of him.

SEVEN MOONS.
A Strange Spectacle Observed in the Val

A Strange Spectacle Observed in the Val
 ley of SOnOma.
 Sonoma valley, in Sonoma county, California, is, in one respect at least, one of the most remarkable spots on the continent. It is the only place in America where the moon may be seen to rise and set seven times in one eyen- ing. The Indians gave the valley the name it bears away back in the misty past, and many have been the explana- tions offered by the white man to ao- count for it. Even slight acquain- tance with the language spoken by the original inhabitants of the valley teaches one that when the word Sonoma is attached the whole phrase means "Valley of the Moon." But why ooeS this natural sink have Lunas otner name attached to it? That was the question asked and left unanswered TOT many years. even though the phenom- anon which had caused the obServant red man to give the valley it's name was -oo,larlv witnessed and admired. A wear or two ago the editor of the SOnO- n,o Index-Tribune visited an Indian who was supposed to be between one hundred and one hundred and fifty years old. In course of the converse tion the old Indian stated that the req son the valley was called Sonor1a was because it had 'heap muchee moon," meaning many moons. Then he told how between the town of Sonoma and a certain peak the moon, when in its full, can be seen to rise seven times in succession in one evening, owing to the peculiar formation of the mountains. This oddity was noticed centuries ago by the Indians, who, on that account, called the depression "The Valley of Many Moons"

WESTERN INFoRMALITY.
Where They Treat Visitors Cordially, BuG
 with Cheerful Unconyentionality.


 with Cheerful Unconyentionality. The lavish western hospitality which insists upon treating guest as very great parsonage has not yet been re- placed by conventional coldness and formality. Not long ago the wife of a literary man visited relatives in a west ern city, says the Brandon Buckshaw. Her coming having been duly announced by local paper, the day after her ar rival no less than five private carriages were placed at the lady's disposal, in- cluding drivers.
 She could not accept them all, but did not fail of an opportunity to drive out and see the very fine country about the town. Within forty-eight hours she had received no fewer than fifty calls from people who came to pay their com pliments and who paid them with great generosity and enthusiasm.
 But the crowning experience was to come. With another relative she att tended sort of Sunday school meeting, intending to take a seat modestly at the back part of the house and hear what went on. Entering the hall the two ladies were beckoned by an usher. ''This way, ladies!"
 They followed him, and before they were fully aware of it were upon the platform close by the minister's side and facing the audience. The minister then proceeded to make an address, in which he eulogized the fame of the lit erary man and the virtues of his wife, ending by inviting her to address the children.
 But the eastern lady, who was shy and retiring in disposition, could not even attempt to rise; perhaps her knees would not have have held her if she had attempted. She sat still, quite over whelmed, with downcast eyes. There was painful silence, which presently the minister broke:
 ''If. then," he said, tour friends do not care to address us,perhap sthey will rise and give us a good look at them?"
 This was as hard a demand to fill as the other. The ladies sat perfectly quiet and there was another still more painful silence. There was nothing to do but go on with the exercises. It was an awful experience for the lady from the east; but in spite of it she spent her time in the town very delightfully."-, find ing the people warm-hearted beyond all account and the place attractive and in- ferastinp

Fruit Lands of Yuma County.

ne 1uCsOn EnC0rprlSe says:
 Southern California owes much of it's present prosperity to the estab- lishment of colonies. Nearly all of these enterprises were originated in the east, and all have proved brilliant successes. Where the beautiful town and settlement stand today, was, few years ago, as forbidding a wilderness as can be found in Arizona. It was a desert, pure and simple, but the bringing of water upon it has made it one of the most productive spots in California. Fresno, Pomona and many other places in the Golden State are examples of what combin- ed capital and good management can do with arid lands, when water can be had. Lands today, in those colonies, can not be touched for less than $100, and up to 5000 per acre. Yet the soil is no richer than that of the valleys of Arizona, and the water supply here is far more abundant. The climate of the territory is equal in healthful- ness to that of any part of Cali fornia. Everything that can be grown in that state can be raised here. Besides, the Arizona fruit grower has the advantage of his product being ready for market three weeks or month before that of California. Those in search of more genial cline and who are locking towards the Pacific coast to find it, should consider these facts. Here land and water can be had at such figures as enables the man of moderate means to make a home. For the establishment of colonies, there is no territory or state west of the Rocky Mountains where the conditions are more favorable to success. Tracts of land almost of any size desired, can be had at a nominal figure, with water right sufficient for the raising of crops. Remember, that in few years when this land is improved and planted to vines and fruit trees, it will be worth from five to ten times it's present value These are facts that cannot be de- nied orif 8 colony shall desire to take up 8 tract of government land, and have the required capital to cons truct canals, there are thousands of acres of such land which can be had for the government price. The fertile valleys of Southern Ari- zona have thus far been overlooked, mainly because they are not on the line of travel, and people who ride over the deserts that adjoin them, imagine that the entire country is of similar character. But they only need to be seen to be appre- ciated. Come and look for your self and you will find that we have not exaggerated, and that the half has not been told about the coun- try's advantages.
