MONTH. MAX.

There is NO other locality, even the
boosted climate of southern France, that
can show such a stable and equable
range of heat and cold. The health seek
or need fear no sudden changes. A little
attention to clothing and he can bid colds
and inHammations defiance. In cases of
death from tubercular disease the New
Mexico rate is only in 1000.
This is the lowest known record, and it
must be remembered that the local con-
tingent of consumptives is daily aug
mented by the immigration of those who
seek respite from that dreaded scourge.
The record of deaths at Santa Fe is
much lower than the territorial average.
In New England the consumptive death
rate is rs out of every 1000 of the COM
munity; in Minnesota it is IA, and
throughout the southern states six per
1000. This city enjoys the spring eli
mate of northern Illinois and Indiana;
the summer climate of Wisconsin, Michi-
gan and Minnesota, and the winter
tenn perature of southern Illinois, Indiana
and Tennessee. This, however, is only as
shown by the thermometer. The dry
tonic air of the mountain altitude fills one
with vivacity and health, and 80 strong is
the influence of the ozone and electricity
on the nerves and system that acclimation
is wonderfully rapid. This of itself is a
| great boon. Cases are on record of in
crease in the chest measure of immi-
grants here of from four to seven inches.
NATURAL ATTRACTIONS.
Besides this Santa Fe lies in most
picturesque valley. 1t is at the entrance
of a splendid canon, Astounding in natural
curiosities. 1t is also the gateway of the
Pecos National park, where fish aud game
abound. Within easy riding or driving
distances there are over forty places Of pic
| turesque and of historic interest. Among
which may be mentioned the old adobe pal
ace, first erected shortly after 1905, from
which the Spanish viceroys ruled this
great province. The present structure
,iates from about l716; but it is full of
interest, as every room ia consecrated by
tho memory CT thrilling events. In this
building Gen. Lew Wallace wrote his
famous Ben Hur.
The chapel of San Miguel, was built in
1880 and still stands. By its side is ths
pluest uOu5o III tu0 Oultcu Obhl60. i nc
walls of the old cathedral date from 1929,
but the rest of the structure IL of more
modern date. Within con senient dis
tances are the Indian pueblos Of Tesuqas
and Nambe; in side canon of The Santa
Fe are the delightful Aztec springs, while
about nine miles up the main water
course Is Monument rock. The road
thither is one of surprising loneliness.
To the south Of town is Aqua Fria, and
the famous turquoise mines pronounced
by Tiffany the finest in the world; and
beyond the Rio Grande are tho San Ilde-
fonso Pueblo and the curious oliR dwell
lings.
Other points Of interest to the tourists
are: The Historical society's rooms; the

Fire.
Next time Deputy Sheriff Weber wants
to start the fire with Kerosene he will make
sure he gets hold of the right can. Weber
lives in Blue Island, where the custom of
lubricating fires prevails. When the serv-
ant quit, day or SO ago, Weber con-
sidered it his duty to start the kitchen fire.
Things went well until after the rain
storm, but yesterday the fire wouldn't
burn. Going, down stairs Weber got the
coal oil can, poured liberal dose on the
wood, and touched it off.
After he had crawled out from under the
sink, and treasured the cat, he proceeded
to investigate results. The stove pipe
hung on the gas jet, and the tea kettle
nestled in the closet. One of the stove
lids was in the front yard, keeping the
frying pan company, and the canary'a
cage was upside down. Weber thought

matter. Weber said some one had loaded
the stove and when he poured on keso-

The Watches of the Night

When of the repeated kind experienced
by persons troubled with insomnia, soon
bring about an alarming condition of the
nervous system. The shaking hand, con-
fusion of the brain, lapses of memory
and loss Of appetite indicate, with terri
BILE precision, the ravages produced by
loss of sleep, which if unremedied must de-
stroy mental equilibrium altogether. No
better and thoroughly nervine exists than
Hostetters Stomach Bitters. Common
sense and experience point to its early
and steady use in cases of insomnia. 1t
strengthens weak and relaxes the tension
of overstrained nerves, which, by the way,
a resort to unmedicated stimulants will
never do permanently, while the after eff
fects of such excitants is most preju1icial.
Under the influence of this benign in
vigorant, appetite, digestion and sleep
return, and bodily comfort and health are
alike promoted. 1t is invaluable in chills
and fever, liver complaint constipation,
rheumatic and kidney trouble.

A VOICE..

Behind the tre1lised window where she stood,
Her face saw not, nor knew the tongue
OF that strange land, yet evermore has sung
In my rapt soul as in bird haunted wood
An echo, filling every solitude,
OF that triumphant p@an that she sung,
Resting me, weary, and when have flung
My sword aside, in terror calming my mood.
From Times untrodden heights hear her
call.
From undiscovered climes her accents fall,
And still her voice thrills me with quickened
breath
And bids me for awhile hold truce with Death,
It'll to the stars path is made" she saith,
"And on the highest pinnacle thy pall"
And though knew the last height had won,
Still, still that magic voice would urge me on!

lives dusky damsel whose mouth is alb
normally large. 1t is the custom of the
maiden to sleep with horseshoe under her
pillow, imagining that it brings her luck.
The other night she went to bed, with the
horseshoe in it's accustomed place. Before
she went to sleep she removed her false
teeth and placed them beside the shoe. The
next morning she put the horseshoe in her
mouth and did not discover the mistake for
two days.-West Union (O.) Scion.

AT THE GATEWAY OF THE NATIONAL PARK.

Santa Fc, the city of the Holy Faith of
st. Francis, is situated on the site of an
ancient Indian Pueblo called O-ga -p-ho-ge.
1t is probably the Oldest civilized COM
inunity in the United States and the most
ancient of American capitals. The Spanish
town was founded in 1905. Authorities
disagree as to whether this city or San Au-
gustin, Fla, were first foun ied. Santa
Fe was first visited by American traders
in 1904, and from that time dated
wonderful era of prosperity. The thrill
ing incidents of the old Santa Fe trail,
starting from Wostport, No., gave it a
world wide fame.
THE WORLDS ONLY sANlTARIuH.
Prof. Mark Harrington, chief of the U.
8. weather bureau, says: "Santa Fe is in
the drest habitable part of the United
States. This region is extensive, and
changes in form from season to season,
but Santa Fe is always in it,"
1t is situated in charming nook of the
Santa Fe range, and its climate is domi-
mated by the influence of mountain peaks
that tower nearly $4,000 feet high. To-
gether with this it lies at an altitude of
7,015 feet, and latitude, about the Seth
degree north, that gives it peculiar adj
vantage as sanitarium. The elevation
tempers the summer heats, which natural
iy should be about that of Memphis,
Tenn, or Bakersfield, Cal, and it's south
ssn situation reduces the rigors of winter.
As an illustration, during the winter of
1892, the daily public concerts in the
plaza were only stopped three times by
weather, and last winter the omissions did
not exceed half dozen.
The altitude compes the lungs to work,
and no one in Santa Fe can be accused of
being "too lazy to BREATHE" as great
physician expressed il. The rare, ozon-
ated air permeates every cell of the lungs,
and thus prevents hemorrhage. Drs.
Symington and Harroun, who have prac-
ticed in Santa Fe for over twenty years,
report that they have only found two
sases among the native people Of con
sumption.
