Sunday evening this portion Of the
valley was visited by u very heavy rain.
In "a limited portion Of the country it was
accompanied by slight fall OF hail. The
evidences of hull are seen half mile
west OF town and continue for perhaps
two miles further west, but in streaks.
Early Monday morning u number OF
cantnloupe growers reported their loss to
Sec. Wallis OF the Mutual Hail Insur-
ance Co. A total OF 80 farmers made &C.
port OF damage and Adjuster Fenlason
ut once went TO work. Some damage was
also done near Fowler. Later reports
indicate TINT the damage WINS not nearly
so great us ut first feared and almost all
the losers have policies Of insurance.
In his garden in town Col. Robb Inns
the largest corn we have seen this sea-
son. The Col. says that is the kind Of
corn he raises when ever he tries farm
ing.
VIM. Irvine's pench trees are SO
heavily laden with fruit as to require
bracing up after the fashion Of the walls
OF silver mine. Thus surrounded, they
present 30 novel an appearance as to
attract the attention Of the kodak artists.
Another complaint reaches the En-
terprise that there are too many low
places in the streets that hold water
which becomes stagnant. The town
authorities will doubtless remedy this
evil us fast as finances will permit.
The Bloomer Girls base ball team Of
Boston played against La Junta's team n

The home merchant, says an ex-
change, is the man who helps pay for the
streets you walk upon; for the school in
which your children, and perhaps you,
were educated; he helps to keep up the
church in which you worship. He is q
man who builds home which enhances
tho value Of your property. Every sub
scription that is passed his name is upon
il. He is the man who can not afford to
swindle self.interest, il nothing
else, prevent this. He bears his share Of
the good government. and stays with
you through sunshine and dnrkness-in
the days OF prosperity and adversity.
These are but few Of the reasons why
your patronage should be given to the
home merchant.

I was not likely 10 forget her voice. 1
had heard IL under circumstances that
ought to have stamped IT on my mem
ory for all time; and IL had the faint
est doubts on the matter they were set
at rest by the fact that she was so well
known TO de Gomeron-she probably
had been a camp follower on our side
and also oy the still more damning fact
that her house was known as the Toi-
son dor. The name had been distinct
ly mentioned by her, and its meaning
was clear TO Inc when thought of the
dreadful scene over de Leyva's body.
As for de Gomeron, knew him well
enough 10 understand his game. The
whole affair, as far as he was con-
cerned, was a sudden and rapid resolve
that was clear. argued IL out In this
WY to myself, and as l went on think
ing IL was almost as IL some one was
reading out a statement of the case to
me. IL was evident that the free lance

Slow Eating.

The prevalent idea that slow eating 10
very favorable 10 digestion is largely
fallacious. The important point is not
that we cot slowly or fast, but that
when we do eat we chew with energy.
OF course, when the haste 10 due TO some
mental anxiety, that may injuriously
inhibit the secretion. Slow eating be-
gets a habit of simply mumbling the
food without really masticating IL.
while the hurried eater Is inclined to
swallow HIS food before proper masti-
cation Hence, hurried eating is bad,
but rapid mastication is advantageous.
II concentrates our energies on the act
In question, and hence more thoroughly
accompllshes IT. Moreover, energetic
chewing stimulates the secretion Of
saliva In the most favorable manner.
These various points are so commonly
misunderstood, at least by the laity,
that they demand our frequent attcn-
tion.-Journal OF Mental and Nervous
Diseases.
