A Story About the Psnsy.

6 A pretty fable about the pansy is cur.
rent among French and German chill
dren. The flower has five petals and
five sepals. In most pansies, especially
Of the earlier and less highly developed
varieties, two of the petals are plain
in color and three are gay. The two
plain petals have single sepal, two of
the gay petals have a sepal each, and
the third, which is the largest of all,
has two sepals. The fable is that the
pansy represents family, consisting Of
husband, wife and four daughters, two
Of the latter being step-children of the
wife, with only one chair; the two small
gay petals are the daughters with
chair each, and the large gay petal is
the wife, with two chairs. To find the
father one must strip away the petals
until the stamens and pistils are bare.
They have fanciful resemblance to an
old man with a flannel wrap about his
neck, his shoulders appraised and his
feet in a bathtub. The story is probably
of French origin, because the French
call the pansy the stepmother.

Recent discoveries have demonstrated that
ali the organs OF the body are under the con.
troll of the nerve centers, located in or near
the base OF the brain. and that when these are
deranged the organs which they supply with
nerve fluid are also deranged. When 1t Is re-
membered that serious jury to the spinal
cord will cause paralysis OF the body below
the injured point. because the nerve force is
prevented by the injury from reaching the
paralyzed portion, 1t will be understood how
the arrangement OF the nerve centerS VIII
cause the arrangement of the various organs
which they supply with nerve force.
Two-thrdS of chronic diseases are due to
the imperfect action of the nerve centers at
the base of the brain, not from n derange-
ment primarily originating in the organ it
self. The great mistake of physicians in
organ rather than the nerve centerS which
are the cause of the trouble.

Reports to the Arizona Baptist
Association
Show a Healthy Growth of Mem
berShIp and an Increase
of Zeal.

The Arizona Baptist association con-
vened in fifth annual session yesterday
morning. The association was called
to order by the moderator, Chaplain
Scott. The transaction of the regular
business of the association was pre-
coded by brief devotional service,
after which the body proceeded to the
annual election of officers. The follow
ing were elected: Rev. Joseph Smale,
of Prescott, moderator; Rev. A. B.
Tomlinson, OF Tempe, vice-moderator !;
W. q. Reese, of Prescott, clerk; P. T..
Burtis of Phoenix, treasurer.
The representation of the churches of
the territory was stronger than at any
previous session. Delegates present
from other churches than Phoenix
were: Rev. Joseph Smale and W. &.
Reese, OF PRESCOTT Mr.. and Mrs
Thomas Wathey, Jr., of Jerome; Rev.
W. A. Windes and wife, of Cotton
wood; Rev. A. B. Tomlinson and wife,

W. II. Wallace, of Mesa; j. Spain and
Miss Fannie Spain. of Buckeye. Other
representatives were expected from the
north last night and from the south
this morning
Reports from delegates from various
parts of the territory show very sat-
1sfactory improvement in the affairs Of
the church, healthy growth of mem
bership and an increase in interest and
activity. Official letters from the
eight churches within the association
showed a mem bership of 30S, gain

church, the ninth. will shortly be or
ganized at Jerome.
The evening session last night was
opened by song and PRAYER service,
followed by the annual sermon by Rev.

Literary Note for April.

Not since the food. so graphically
described in the Old Testament, has
such catastrophe as Mr.. Jean T. van
Gestel relates. been told by an eyeWit-
ness. The eruption of Krakatoa swept
out of existence nearly 100000 persons.
OF this terrific cataclysm Mr.. van GEES

story in the April Cosmopolitan. Lady
Colin Campbell's interesting article,
English Country House Parties," is
the first presentation in an American
periodical of an interesting phase of
English life. No one could write with
better knowledge of the subject, or a
brighter pen, than Lady Campbell.

forty-eight seconds, or seventy-five
miles an hour, and even higher max

The Bradshaw for 1913 shows that
the morning express was timed to leave
Paddington at $50 o'clock and start
again from Didcot at 10:47 Allowing
tour minutes for the stop at Didcot the
train must have been officially timed at
a mile a minute.

Dickens, who so often studied with
delighted interest the application of
English law to particular cases, would
have found a subject worthy of his
grimmest humor in the fact, cabled
recently from London, that when the

was doubtless that of a victim of the

If Properly Used They Largely Escape

In his work on the senile heart DIR.
Balfour tells US that there are two

wisely used, largely escape senile fail

are the brain and the heart. Persons
brain workers, great statesmen and
others, should continue to work with
almost unimpaired mental activity and
energy up to period when most of
the organs and functions of the body
are in a condition of advanced senile
decay. There is physiological reason
for this, and DR.. Balfour tells US what
it is. 1.-THE normal BRAIN" he affirms,
remains vigorous to the last" and
that because its nutrition is specially
provided for" About middle life or a
little later the general arteries of the
body begin to lose their elasticity and to
slowly but surely dilate. They become,
therefore, much less efficient carriers
areas. But this is not the case with the
internal cortids, which supply the capil-
larry OF the nutrient blood to the capil-
larry areas of the brain On the contrary,
those large vessels continue to re-
tain their pristine elasticity, SO that the
blood pressure remains normally high
er than within the capillary area Of

blood paths being thus kept open, the
brain tissue is kept better nourished
than the other tissues of the body
Who is there among those who have
reached or passed middle age that will
not be rejoiced to find such admirable

that the brain may continue to work,
and even to improve, almost to the

 PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 20.-James R.. Gentry, the actor who shot Margaret Drysdale (Madge Yorke) in a room at Zeiss' hotel, this city, on Sunday night last, was arrested here at 12:l5 this morning, at Thirty-third and Columbia avenue.
 When arrested, the fugitive mur- derer had a fractured skull and a broken rib, which penetrated the GOV ering of the lung, and three small stat wounds over his heart, where he had cut himself with a small penknife in an effort to commit suicide.
 He was at once hurried to the Ger man hospital, and the doctors at that institution consider his condition se- rious. He was evidently sick man before he committed the murder. and the exhaustion and exposure since then has weakened him greatly.
 He is unable to talk with any degree of coherency at present, but stated to the doctors that he received his wounds by jumping out of window of the ho- tel, and not from fire escape as was before reported.
 In attempting suicide with the pen knife, he had opened his shirt and cut himself deliberately, as his shirt was found to contain no rent or tear.

OUR BRITISH COUSINS
Anxious to Know, You Know, About that Behring Sea Tribunal of Abi-

LONDON, Feb. 2O.-In the house of commons Sir George Baden-PoweI, member for the Kirkdale division of Liverpool, asked the government t for information regarding the payment of S425, 900 which the United States had undertaken as compensation to sealers under the award of the Behring Sea tribunal of arbitration. He desired to be informed whether any step for the appropriation of this sum would be taken by the United States congress before the rising of that body, which occurs in March.
 Sir Edward Gray, under foreign sec retary, replied that President Cleve- land, in his message to congress, had recommended that provision be made for the appropriation of the sum awarded. Sir Edward further said that the British ambassador at Washington, Sir Julian Pauncefote, in his reports to the home government concerning the matter, had stated that there was no reason to doubt that the amount would be appropriated before the rising of congress This statement was greeted from all sides with cries of Hear, hear"
 Sir George Baden-Powell further in- quired if the United States had an agreement with the Russian govern ment regarding the seal fisheries in the North Pacific ocean.
 Sir Edward replied that an agree ment had been concluded between these two countries in May similar to the one existing between England and Russia, which it was understood would remain in force until either party gave formal notice of its intention to mod fly its provisions.
