A modern adaptation of this idea
could be easily carried out with thin
sheets of copper such as are used In
copper modelling, the required strips
being cut from the metal with scissors
and fastened down with small copper
boat nails. The sole necessary precau-
ton is to see that the woodwork of the
box Is Of sufficient thickness to admit
of the nails being driven In. Should

appeal to the taste Of today's amateur.
the wide bands could be of one color
and material. and that not necessarily
textile. A most suitable ground under
the metal would be-, for instance. un-
dressed leather: the soft, velvety sur

able for the purpose:
Another variety "of decoration Is

Still another way to get unique ef-

stained to a rich deep brown and

OUR BUSINESS MEN MUST
FACE A VITAL PROBLEM.

Week after next the business men OF
Ell Paso will be brought face to face
with a great problem-one that means
much to the future prosperity and
progress of the city. 1t is that of Sc
lecting suitable men as directors and
other officials to enforce the acts and
determine the policies of the chamber
of commerce.
The coming year will be one of the
most momentous that Ell Paso ever ex-
perienced. So many new ideas have
taken hold, so many new projects have
been started, within the past year. that
there is great need Of progressive,
public spirited leadership in the cham
Der of commerce to give assurance
that the machinery will not be allowed
to fall below it's normal speed There
is every reason to believe that the city
is now on the eve of the greatest period
of growth in it's history. Nothing is
more important il we hope to realize
the destiny that seems to be ours, than
to have, first, a capable city admins
tration, and second, capable admin
VI
The two seem to stand together.
Happily the election of a president and
board of directors for the chamber Of
commerce is not complicated by the
low down political scheming that at
tends an election for mayor and al
dermen. But even if desirable
mayor cannot be elected this year, the
bad effect of an incompetent city ad-
ministration could be very largely
counteracted by an efficient and force
full administration of the affairs of the
chamber of commerce.
1t is time to begin to think about
the men to be chosen. The plan of
the election has already been explain
ed in The Herald in detail. There
will be a nomination by ballot. fol-
lowed by an election by ballot. 1t is
time to begin comparing notes, SO that
the best men shall be selected for the
positions of control.
There is no job to be fathered, no pet
ty personal ambition to crafty, no
influence" to be coddled, no grudge
to pay in selecting these officers. The
only platform which should be SUBJ
scribed to by every active candidate
for the honors of office is eel Paso first,
self afterwards" We want clear head
edness, then a progressive spirit. and
plenty of forcefulness to drive ahead
through obstacles.
mere are such men here. plenty of
them But we want to pick out ex-
actly the right ones, and then the

So rapid has been the increase in
phine in the town of Charleston. lis
souri,, that the city council found it
necessary to hold a special session. at
which they prohibited the sale of these
drugs within the city limits. The de-
mand has been principally among wo-
men, and there are said on good auth
ority to be over fifty confirmed slaves
to the dreadful habit among the women
of the city. Many cases of insanity
have already resulted from the use of
the drug, and more than one crime has
been traced directly to it's use. The
council became alarmed between meet
ings, and hurried to hold special ses-
sion SO as to put a stop to the traf-
fic before more harm was done. Other
cities are becoming aroused upon this
question and the next year will see "a
number of vigorous fights inaugurated
against the deadly practice. The use
of these drugs is more dangerous to
the individual and to the community
than the use of alcohol, for the effects
are not SO readily apparent. there is
more temptation to take the doses in
private, and the solitude, and sense OF
security that deludes the dope fiend
until the wreck is accomplished. make
these drugs more insidious and more
deadly in their effects than are intox-
icating liquors deadly IN NOR
full thing to contemplate. the gradual
extension of the use of these soul le-
drugs, but any druggist will
confirm the fact that the use is ex-
and the time to act is now.
while the public sense is not deadened
to the danger.
