THE FOURTH AT LOST GULcH

The glorious Fourth was appro- priately celebrated by Pinal Mountain Lodge No. II, Knights of Pythias, last Sunday. The picnic and barbecue which was held at Lost Guleh under their auspices was a grand success, and those who were fortunate enough to attend have nothing but the most pleasant memories. The lodge had spared neither time nor trouble in making their guests comfortable. and for their enjoyment dancing plat form had been erected under dense foliage where they were enabled to "trip the light fantastic" to theii hearts content. After dinner had been served, the committee called on Hon. Alonzo Bailey for an oration on ''the day we ce' ebrate." Mir. Bailey responded in his usual fluent manner and was heartily spplauded at the conclusion of his address. He was followed by Mir. c. s. Benner, a visit ing member of the order, who ex- plained the beauties and benefits of the Pythiar order Patriotic airs were then in order and were ably rem dered by a quartette consisting Of Mesdanaes Bond and Lorl and Messrs.

cats afiiicted with hydrophobia. These
wounds are considered by the medical
officers in attendance to present a
greater degree Of danger than the bites
of mad dogs, not because there is any
difference In the virus. but because, in
the first place. the teeth Of cats, being
more pointed than those of dogs, inflict
a deeper wound, and also because a
mad dog usually fastens his fangs into
the arm. the hand or the leg, while a
cat invariably jumps for the face of
the person It attacks. The nerve CEN
ters are far more exposed In the face
than In either the arms or legs, and
hence the virus enters into the circu-
lation more rapidly by means Of bite
In the face than through one elsewhere
In the body. 1t may he added that the
returns Of the Pasteur institute for the
last year show that per cent Of the
patients who have submitted them
selves to treatment have been bitten by
mad cows.

Let Us look into this word love. Love

acter. For instance. God is purity. And
to be pure in thought and look. to turn
away from unhallowed books and con.
versations. to abhor the moment in
which we have not been pure Is to love
God. God IL love: and to love men till
private attachments have expanded in
to q philanthropy which embraces all,
at least even the evil and enemies, with
compa ssi0n-that Is love to God. God
Is truth. To be true. to hate every
form Of falsehood. to live a brave, true.

one else Of the present generation was
welded at eighteen! The grandmam-
mas usually met their mates and mar
ried them while still ut school. and ac-
cOrding to tradition their first long
frock was the wedding robe"
Things have changed. The girl OF
eighteen to-day is hardly finished
school, seldom in society, and she very
rarely marries until she has tasted
two seasons of social joys. To be
sure, even with this late marrying, dl-
vorces are more numerous than in
Olden time. But, then they are less
frowned upon.
Even u broken engagement in other
days was stigma which no young
woman cared to bring upon herself.
And the broken engagement is often
a blessing in disguise.
The moral Of the whole affair seems
to be that young people should beware
Of impulsive betrothals. Boys and
girls who are scarcely out Of their
teens cannot be regarded as having
fixity Of mind, and the chances are
that before the hymeneal altar is
reached both will have seen that they
were mistaken. When this stage Is
reached it is infinitely better to draw

taken which may ruin two lives.--Leis-
