HOW TO GAIN FLESH

Persons have been known to gain a pound a day by taking an ounce of Scott's emulsion. It is strange, but it often happens.
 Somehow the ounce pro- duces the pound; it seems to start the digestive machinery going properly, so that the patient is able to digest and absorb his ordinary food, which he could not do before, and that is the way the gain is made.
 A certain amount of flesh is necessary for health; if you have not got it you can get it by taking Scott's Emulsion.
 You will find it: just as use full in summer as in winter, and if you are thriving upon it don't stop because the weather is warm.
 If you have not tried It, send for free sample It's agreeable taste will surprise you

 chanical industries, and these bring people and people bring money which goes into all the various channels of trade, enrtching and caus- ing growth and development along all lines. We stated the other day that all signs pointed to the coming year as a prosperous one for Phoenix. It looks as though We were right. Now let us make a song pull, strong pull and a pull altogether for water storage. If we get it--and who doubts it?-there Is no end to the limit of our prosperity. If we fall down now We have ourselves to blame. We approach a crisis. Sue cess Is just ahead-almost within reach. Can we afford to falter? Can we afford to quibble and draw the lines too closely now? Let us be broad. Let us be brave. Let us be bold. United we stand; divided we fall.

By reference to The Republicans

By reference to The Republicans telegraphic news column it will be
 seen that the San GLAD Francisco forest reserve TIDINGS has bgen solidified. OF Years ago the govern GREAT ment in an outburst of JOY generosity that stands
 fin glaring contrast to its present miserly position in refusing aid for the building of storage reser- voirs. granted every alternate section of land for ten miles on each side of the track to aid in the building of the Santa Fe railroad. Such subsidy was considered right and proper. Here was a vast section of country given inaccessible and irrcclaimable. By granting a vast subsidy magnificent road was built and an empire snatched from the desert.
 But as time passed sections of this land owned by the railroad were sold to private individuals and improved. In Coconino county thousands of acres were disposed of to cattle and sheep barons. who. by virtue of owning one half the land controlled all. Section after section of land that had for long years been nursing to gigantic pro- portions the product of the pine seed were denuded of their vegetable growth by the wanton hand of man. Countless herds of sheep and cattle tramped over the hills and dales. eating and destroying the tender new sprouts and hardy native grasses. and cutting deep trails that the floods pre-empted and used as toboggan slides to the sea.
 The hills became as bare and bald as dead mems skulls. Vegetation. dis couraged, no longer sprang up in glce at the first baptism of rain. Gentle showers fell and hurried down the cat tie trails eroding them into gullies and canons. Snow covered the earth and settled itself for a long sleep in peace. But the trees had been felled and the sun beat down upon 1t and 1t melted into tears which rushed away down the wrinkles the rains had made. There was nothing to retard the flow, so no pools were formed as of yore and the water had no chance to sink away Into the soil where It could nourish the thirsty roots. then bubble out into the daylight again in pure. cool springs.
 After awhile the inevitable effect of the despoilation of our forests and the mountain vegetable growth became app parent in infrpquent rains and the drying up of lakes and springs. Water grew scarcer and scarcer and the farm CT poorer.
 Efforts were made to consolidate the great San Francisco Reserve, by offer ing to the owners money or lands in other locations for their holdings therein. but without avail. Now. 1t seems that this has been accomplished and this great Reserve-@the Salt River valleys drainage basin--will be consol- idatrd and preserved for all time.
 To Mir w. J. Murphy belongs much of the honor and glory of bringing about this grand result. Steadfastly zealously. almost single handed. he has Ia bortd and won.

"A new aspect of the war. which seems
to kindle anew, with the help of foreigners,
who threaten the frontier, places the gov

different attitude from that maintained
hitherto and forces it to proceedings which
it has previously tried to avoid. 1t has
been resolved:
"Firstly-To suspend the payment OF all
accounts for war material pending and to
limit the expenses to the payment Of the
armed force and administration.
"Secondly-To proceed to appropriate all
the necessary elements for the feeding.

'Thirdy-To levy forced and voluntary
loans. according to circumstances. and to
impose war contributions in order to meet
the expenses of each department without
depending on the national capital.
THE governors are hereby amply author

to the requirements OF cases. without the
need of approval from the government, and
each governor must assume the RESPONSE

PEKING. Aug 23.-The delay of the Chi

CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. %. - The
French ambassador. NJ. Constans, to-day
sent a letter to the Sultan personally in
forming him that he would leave Con-
stantinople with the entire staff of the
embassy If the matters in dispute were not
settled Immediately. The letter has the
nature of an ultlmatum. 1t accords the
Sultan the briefest delay within which to
comply with the demands.
PARIS, Aug. %. $50 d. m.-While the off,
cials of the French Foreign Office decline
10 confirm or deny the report from Con-
stantinople, announcing that the French
ambassador has sent the Sultan letter
which is i'm the nature of an ultimatum,
they admit having received a telegram
from NJ. Constans which was laid before
the council meeting at the Elysee Palace
this evening. Only three ministers were not
present. The premier, Nj. Waldeck-Rous-
seau, the minister of agriculture. NJ. Du-
puy, and the minister of public works, Nj.
Baudin, are absent from Paris.
The correspondent learns that NJ. Con-
STAINS has been given a free hand. Any
steps he finds proper to take will be fully
indorsed The foreign minister. Nj. Del
casse, If he deems il necessary, will with
draw the French embassy from Constan-
tinople. and Murir Bey. the Turkish am
bassador. who is now in Switzerland, will
be notified not To return TO Paris, i'm which
case Munir Bey probably will withdraw
the legation TO Berne, as he is also accred-
tied as minister to Switzerland.
No naval demonstration is yet contem-
plated, but the Sultan will probably be
seriously inconvenienced by the closure of
the Turkish embassy here, which Is the
center of the espionage maintained TO
watch the numerous young Turks and other
disaffected Ottoman subjects and voluntary
exiles who make their headquarters in
Paris, and who Will have a free hand If
diplomatic relations between France and
Turkey are completely broken off.
1t has been suggested that the French
government ISSUE orders for the bourse to
cease dealing in Turkish securities. but IL
is not likely this step will be taken. as IL
would only injure the French bondholders
The entire Turkish group fell on the bourse
to-day, in some cases going down from
10 TO IL francs.
According TO a special dispatch received
here from Berne Munir Bey has already
leased villa there for the use of the
Turkish embassy.
