sUNsrRoKE IS UNKEowN

In fact, in a residence of sixteen years in Arizona the writer has only known two peraHhs to be overcome by the heat and theg recovered. Their condition, however, was more the result of whisky than heat. The air Is so dry here that a registered temperature of no degrees is not as oppres- sive as 80 degrees in St. Louis or New York. The Signal Service bureau has recognized this fact, and reports the difference between the apparent and sensible temperature to be fulls 30 degrees. At nearly all times there is a pleasant breeze; the nights are invariably cool in the summer, and outdoor labor is performed without serious discomfort to either man or beast on the warmest days Very seldom does the thermometer get be- low the freezing point in winter, and in the gardens of Florence to-day are castor bean plants two years or more old.

that we are worrying over. This is true,

It has all been said many times; but it

with detailed instructions as to how to
avoid worrying. Now me make try
at it. Perhaps 1 shall repeat things that
I've said before; but If do, II will be
because think they're good for hui
manity.
"a prime necessity of our permanent
freedom from worrying is the posses
sion of the personal quality commonly
known as sand. If a man has not been
endowed with sand by nature he must
pick it up for himself; nobody,is going
to give him any, but he can do this
easier than he thinks.
Most of the things we worry over
are only bugbears that fade and disap-
pear upon the first attack. Herein lies
the first secret of success-in attack
and the great secret lies in persistence
in keeping always at work. The man
who actually does this, wasting no time
will find, the first thing he knows, that
he's stopped worrying, and he laughs
little as he says to himself that he's
got no time 10 worry; and the next
thing he knows he finds his sandbox /.
no longer empty, he's actually got some
sand of his own, and then he is some
body and begins TO find some solid sat

LAZY DAYS. IN THE cANTEENs.
A PInce Where Orders Are Taken
Leisufeiy and FILLED at the

Canteens are the creation Of the gov

Rtar. They form sort of club for the
privates and "non-coms," where they
may get n meal, n cigar, and what sa-

table with food not supplied in the gov

of government rations, and TO be able
TO order a meal of ham and eggs or a
steak, or get a cheese sandwich or
broiled ham sandwich with restaurant
coffee becomes quite luxury.
With the arrival Of 5000 volunteers
the Jefferson barracks canteen swirled
with business. 1t was a downright lux
ury for the volunteers who were un-
used to eating government rations, as
wen as a windfall for the Third cavalry,
which operated it, The Third had been

Then, wiping his hands on his apron,
disclosing cavalry trousers, the waiter
would reply:
"You can have ham and eggs If you

NOW THE DEWEY SKIRT.
Fiounce, at ono Time in Such
Great Vogue.


Long before the present war was
thought OF a fashion was introduced
here which. first spoken Of was de-
clared by the women altogether out Of
the question. 1t was a skirt cut In the
Spanish founce" shape. Doubtless,
the first woman who faced tho ordeal
OF feminine criticism by appearing in
one Of these skirts was a brave person.
She certainly caused a autter in the
feminine world.
Those who had never seen the skirt
were outspoken In their decision not
to be drawn into having one cut after
that pattern. but when some woman
sailed by in all the glory Of the season
of 49, Spanish hohnce. they could not
help admiring It's grncefulness and
style, and straightwuy went and or
dercd one made.
Unlike its prototype of IS or 20 years
ago. which was the death L.cw 10 any
grace or beuuty Cf figure. when worn
by stout woman, the new skirt was
boon to the woman who was growing
feshy. 1t made her look tall and slen-
der, II gave TO her lines which she had
never been able TO attain before. and
it was far and away the most becoming
style which had ever been invented by
the fashion puNeyors for the short,
fat woman.
Once this fact was realized. the sue
cess Of the Spanish founce WIS ns-
sured. IL became the rage. Every ina
terial, whether appropriate or not, was
found made up in a Spanish founce.
II was the triumph of the season. Moth.
ing in the way Of skirt ever before
created such a furore
Then came the war with Spain, and
the women asked; shall we continue
to call this mode, the greatest success
of many seasons. by the name Of that
hated race which we are doing our best
10 wipe OF the face of the globe ?"
Certainly notl" was the prompt an

we call It which will symbolic its un-

IL should be called The Dewey skirtl'
SO the horo Of Manila and the heroine
of the mode bears the same name. Like
the commander Of the Asiatic fleet. who

pay greater compliment TO the brave
rear admiral than by naming their vic

Dudler Is intensely patriotic His
frineds have been aware OF this for
some time, so when he purchased a

II was dark before Dudler succeeded
in getting everything ready and the
flag hoisted, and, with the remark that
there would be surprise in the neigh
borhood when the morning dawned, he
went inside.
But II was Dudler who was surprised
on the following morning When he
stepped out upon his porch he found
that every window in the neighborhood
had an angry occupant Even the old
maid who lived next door had drawn
her lace curtains aside and when Dud-
Ter appeared shook her fist at him.

What the outcome would have been Is

point a policeman arrived on the scene

Dudler TO haul IL down.
'Wh-a-at?" gasped Dudler.
''Take 1t down." ordered the police
man, "or I'll run you in"
This was too much. Dudler was pro
