These lots will be offered for sale on terms and at prices within the reach of every homeseeker. These additions are on the finely equipped ELECTRIC STREET RAILWAY Only Four Minutes Ride to Center

Property within the city limits is too high-priced to be utilized as resi- dence property, when better and more comfortable homes can be secured in these beautifully situated additions at a small cost. The man who cares to investigate the future growth of Phoenix and vicin- ity will readily come to the conclusion that within the next six years its popu- lation will reach 10000 or 30,OO0, and in order to accommodate this pushing bus ting throng business houses, as we'll as residences, will seek the additions here mentioned, and their cash value thereby be enhanced tenfold.

in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
ative; efectually cleansing the system,

and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid

ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.

An UnluckY Parent.

Gen. Skobeleff. the famous Russian
soldier, was a notorious son. His father
happened to be general also. Skobe-
left, ST., took care of his worldly goods,
while Skobeleff. Jr, had no regard for
money-that is. when lie had any. So
long as the father was the sons supe-
rior in rank things went all right for the
father, but when the son was promoted
over the fathers head there came sad
change. Whenever his martial progeni-
tor refused to give him money Skobeleff,
Jr., threatened to order the poor old man
under arrest, and sometimes did not hes
itate to execute his threat, despite the
prayers and tears of the unlncky parent.
He always had money heneeforth.

RIVERS ARE RISING.
Missouri Streams Higher than in
1882, When the Record
was Broken.

Jefferson City. Mo-, Dec. 24-The
heavy rain last night has caused great
alarm among the Usage and Moreau
river valleys. The already swollen
streams are rising this morning and the
high water of last week will be greatly
augmented. Fencing, hay stacks, shock
corn and many outbuildings have been
swept away. A great amount OF stock
has been drowned, and if the rain con-
tinues twentyfour hours the river val
leys will be scene of Wild devastation

The Usage is now higher than 1T was In
