"Who by taking thought, can add to his staturef" was one of the riddles propounded to his disciples by the Son of Man. Had His advent upon earth been at the pres ent time He would have probably admit that If not stature many other attributes of the human form divine can be increased simply by taking a little thought and putting into practice methods suggested by such thought-thought, if not of the one so increased, of the one who sells the formula.
 Newspapers and magazines pre- sent the advertisements of many so called beauty doctors, and one well and widely advertised gentleman has made fortune in removing superhuous hair, moles and all sorts of facial blemishes. A thoughtful application ofthe principles oi calls thenics and gymnastics develops the muscles, makes erect the car riage and improves the health gen erally.

JUST LIKE MORALES WAS.

After the president had departed what shoel of time they had in both Los Angeles and Phoenix over the way the receptions accord ed him in those two places were managed. The papers of both cities are teeming with rancor and recrimination because of alleged forwArdness on the part of some eminent citizens who had a hand in the affair, and the snubbings they are asserted to have administered certain other eminent citizens who were relegated to back seats in order to gratify private spite so it is said.
 It reminds THE OASIS of the time that was had here in Nogales when Gov. McCord and Gov. Cor ral made their historic visit to the line city. While one crowd was meeting Governor McCord at the depot, and exchanging the ordin- ary civilities, another crowd cap- tured the ladies of his party and spirited them away. Then three days later when McCord and his party returned from Guaymas two suppers had been prepared for them, and there was battle royal in the sleeping car as to which supper they should eat. Oh those were great times in Nogales.

phase of the law which gave rise to the joke that the axe, pick and ham, mer, seen in conspicuous place in every passenger car, were for use by the conductor and brakemen to knock in the head all passengers hurt in any accident, in order to limit the amount recoverable to the death payment. All this mas given rise to suspicion that the Pullman Co.,, closely allied to the railroads, deliberately reverses the position of its passengers, to insure a harvest of broken necks with every accident, rather than one of broken legs. In many states the latter are the most expensive.
 In the west there is no need for continuing this practice. No state or territory limits the amount re- coverable for death in a railway accident, and broken neck is just as expensive to the company as a broken leg. Consequently, if the surmise here suggested be true, the Pullman company can return to the old method of putting their passen- gers away at night feel first. It would be safer for the passenger and cost the company no more.

plain people beautiful by exercising them ten times daily. five minutes each time, in pronouncing the vowel sounds a. do- a O in regular succession and repeatedly through out the entire five minutes. The muscular effort required to repeat these sounds continuously and repeatedly strengthens and enlarges certain muscles in the lips and cheeks, wich gradually change the contour of the face and actually develop beauty to replace plainness. With the price anyone can become beautiful. Perhaps some genius will arise who will succeed in petfecting method by which short people can be increased in stature.

ANOTHER YEAR.

The first number of THE OASIS was turned of from the press upon the ninth day of May, 1893, so last week the paper entered upon its ninth year. Six and one half years of that period the publication office has been in Nogales, and the journal has been identified with this place.
 In the time that has elapsed since May, 1893, there have heen many changes in Arizona news papers-soms of them having ex- perienced several transfers of own ership. and not one half of them now continuing under their then management. During those years THE OASIS has ever been under the same management, and if the life of the writer be spared the management will be the same eight years hence. We are we'll pleased with our surroundings, and intend to stay with them.
 As to the future conduct of the paper there is no need to make any promise. The record made in the past is an earnest of what it will be in the future. It will contin ue to represent the best interests of the great and growing region it serves, and the interests of Santa Cruz County and Nogales. In public affairs it will stand. as in the past, for mpetence, honesty integrity and experience in public office; aud incompetent, unfit aud dishonest men need not expect its support simply because they are alleged good fellows.
 The present peaceful condition of affairs in Nogales is a subject for congratulation. T h at co IT, ditlon will continue so long as public affairs are conducted right. Trusting they will be so THE OASIS begins another year, reserv- ing the. privilege and duty of look ing out for breakers. When we see them we are going to say so.

NOT NECESSARY OUT WEST.

!
 Car Go. instructed their porters to make down the berths in their cars so the sleeping passengers rode with their feet forward. Of late years the position has beeu reversed and the sleeper in the sleeper rides with his head forward. This in- novation the writer has observed and has always thought exceed ingly dangerous, because in case of a collision the passenger stands a remarkably good chance for getting his neck broken. At Agua Zarca one night last week the editor ie- ceived a practical verifcation of his suspicious in this matter. With an admonition precedent to the porter to call him at Hermosillo he had composed himself to slumber and his stentoriau snore was already disturbing the dreams of passengers in adjacent sections, when slap. bang-the train came to stand still against box car stand ing upon the main track, the edi- torial think tank came violently in coucussion with the end of the berth, and the editorial neck re- ceived a wrench which during the remainder of the week made the owner fearful of moving his head lest the d-d thing should fall off. Had there been a little more speed to the train at the moment of col lision, the neck would have surely been broken, and "one of the brightest journalistic lights in Ari- zona" Wide our admirers; the 'd-dest son of b-elial in Santa Cruz county, as our enemies put it) would have been snuffed out forever to the sor- row of a small but interesting fam fly, and troop of over conhding creditors.
 It is said that the reason given for the Pullman people having made this change in the way of arranging their patrons at night is that when the train is in motion the cloud of minute dust particles which hangs in the air in all cars when in motion, naturally accumu- lates in the rear end of the sections, and that the sleeping passengers breathe purer air, by riding with their heads forward. But of what use is it to man to breathe purer air If thereby be suffers broken neck? One can recover from the effects of little more dust in the air passages of the head, throat and lungs, and he can recover from a broken leg or ankle; but there are no cases on record of recovery from broken necks. The only recovery possible would be made by the heirs, in court.
 And the last sentence in the fore going parag' aph suggests possibly a reason why the Pullman Co. has reversed the position of the passen- ger when sleeping. The principal office of that company is in New York and the great part of its bus
