rs pictures OF human nature, but those
Of the old school as we'll as many of the
new are Grass caricatures of it. They so
distort woman that she would not rec
ognize herself as depicted there. But as
che is commonly set down as being WOO
ed and wooed and wooed steadily and
unremittingly, in season and ont Of sea-
son, before she shows the slightest
symptoms Of being won, she accepts the
caricature as q likeness because it pleases
her TO be SO presented and because it re-
fleets her own bias. Courtship indeed is
exhibited in fiction, and conventionally,
as anomalous in excess. There is Moth
ing remarkable in or about it. Every
body out of swadding clothes knows
how it is conducted. It is spoon against
spoon for days or. weeks or months, just
as it happens, until both become equal
" spoony, when they are married as the
most efficient means Of curing them Of
their spooniness. Generallysthe woman
is worse than the man. Sometimes they.
are equally affected, though he is almost
always the first to recover, to show
signs Of returning sanity. This is the,
hard, common, sensible, perhaps rather
cynical, way Of putting it, but it is terse
and to the point. @ Y
What . complicated, abnormal, wire
drawn, ultra sentimental thing roman
GERS and women make in the telling of
it! In the thing itself, as presented, she
has very little part beyond weeping, be-
ing surprised, panied and generally un-s
happy on promiscuous principle. He is;
the great performer and indefatigable
bimpleton from the first spark until the
vast conf1agration is about to be extin-
guished. He becomes suddenly, irrecov-
erably enamored of her without the,
slightest countenance on her side, with
out the faintest approval Of him, with
out the smallest suspicion Of the fact.
She is amazed when she hears Of it,
and, after many interviews, she cannot
tell whether she cares for him or not.
Weeks, months follow; then she begins
to think that she may like him. Another
period passes. She has come to believe
that she would enjoy his friendship.
But as lover, as a husband-the idea is
dreadful, positively shocking; it makes

You will never regret it, but lay the thousands of dollars, within year or two, remembering always that i've are lacking in true courage when for fear of the future we persist in taking the crusts and scraps and wholly rely on the niggardly salaries of the present. We should not be satisfied with a sal ary alone. We should not mortgage the possibilities of our future, more particularly after having the opportu- mites so apparent as are those in Phoenix today, called to our attention. No! We should, while opportunity is ours, have the courage to take life as it comes-feast or famine. The read CTS of this article and their friends throughout the United States and Can ada can remit to our credit $100 to the Phoenix National bank, with an addi- tional $2.50 registry fee, when the bank will return them warranty deed and abstract of title Should they so de- sire the property can be taken care of by our agency. Parties, and we invite every deserving person while the lots remain, living throughout Arizona that desire to purchase on the installment plan can remit as above one-third of the lot purchase, when we will place in the bank warranty deed in escrow which will be returned when balance of purchase money is paid. The low est priced lots now offered is $100. In making this offer, Kilroy's New Pal estine agency is giving to it's patrons at least an aggregate sum of $35, 1000 in values, viz: $150 on each lot so sold. Besides a lovely home in lovely city and valley. Speaking of this property we wish to be distinctly understood, over our own signature, that it stands today without an equal either in loca- tion, proximity to business centers, soil, perfect drainage and perfect love Illness in the Salt River valley. Its phenominal beauty, with it's streets and avenues, from 60, 80 to 100 feet wide; it's every lot covered with a perfect growth of alfalfa (meadow) is now, and has been, the talk, admiration and at traction of thousands and thousands of refined visitors from the many states of our Union, as well as Canada and Europe during the past winters, very flying the old adage, That you can drive a stone upward for a moment into the air, but it is true that all stones will forever fall; and whatever instances can be quoted of unpunished theft, or of a deception,-or lie that's worse which somebody credited, jus tice must prevail, and it is the privi- lege of truth and worth to make itself known, trusted and believed" Each lot is 50x132 feet Kindly send thispa- per to some deserving friend. Thou sands and thousands will not only appreciate, but avail them selves of what you may, with an inborn carelessness, overlook. Lots within five minutes walk of court house. Address J. A.

He is called chief. but none but T Cherokee of more than 35 years IS eligible for the chieftainship. When he is absent his duties are performed by an assistant chief, whose salary Is $250 year. The chief has a cabinet of three secretaries and the congress comprises two delegates from every 190 members of the tribe. All Chero- lee males of 16 and all white males who have Indian wives have the right to vote. The constitution provides for the maintenance of public school in which both English and Cherokees are taught. The inhabitants of the reserve are intelligent, fairly well educated, law-abiding and industrious.
