 T. F. Moran, formerly operator at the local depot, but now located at Winslow, was admitted to the bar last Thursday. The occasion was celebrated by his entertaining a number of friends at the Hotel Weatherford in Flagstaff. Tom is all right and deserves his success.
 Hon. Mark Smith has recovered his health and is back in Washing ton. In a letter to H. c. Hibben, received last Friday, MT. Smith says: 'I have had hard fight to keep Utah from getting away with what is left of Coconino county. l have had a strong fight before both committees, and had an adverse re- port from the committee of the house, so that fixes the bill so far as this congress is concerned."- Sun.
 A peculiar sort of fly or bug is making a serious attack on the pine trees in this section They seem to bore into the twigs and needles, al- lowing the sap to escape in such quantities that vegetation beneath bears the appearance of having just experienced a heavy rain. It yet remains to be seen what effect they will have, though old timers say the same thing occurred some years ago, causing the needles to turn color, but not iniuring the trees.
 Attorney E. s. Clark was in town last Tuesday on business. Wednes- day he and family moved from Flagstaff to Prescott, where they will make their future home. MT. Clark will be much missed in this section and the best wishes of all accompany him. As a lawyer, too much cannot be said of his ability, and there will always be a warm spot in the hearts of the citizens of this county for him because of his untiring and able efforts on behalf of the taxpayers in the county's re- cent troubles.

in as many different ways as we wear
our skirts; we bury ourselves in high
collars of fur, and decorate our gowns
in a hundred becoming ways with

The fact is that the fashion makers
have taken advantage of the times to
enforce a display of the most eXpen-
sive materials of all kinds embracing
laces, fabrics and furs. That they have
accomplished their purpose is evil

these materials seen in every city and

Rubber from Grea.ewood.

The ingenuity of Yankee in
ventor has devised use for that
humble and unlovely shrub of the
western deserts known as the
'greasewood." 1t has been found to
contain a gum that affords a valu-
able substitute for rubber. The
method of obtaining the gum, which
has been newly patented, consists in
bruising the woody stalks of the
greasewood, soaking them in solu-
ton of carbon disulphide, and then
drawing off the liquid, which is dis
titled. The chemical used as a
solvent is driven off by heat, and
there remains in the bottom of the
vessel a gummy stuff, flexible and
elastic. Finally, the gummy stuff is

A. to House Cleaning.

A conference of women was held
not long ago in neighboring city
to discuss the wisdom of the semi
annual domestic upheaval called
house cleaning, and it was decided
that while some tearing to pieces
was still necessary to get at the dust
at the bottom of things, the contin-
ued development of the modern san
itary idea tends to do away with the
old order of cleaning. Rugs, hard
floors, steam heat, and electric light
ing arc all assisting agents, but more
simplicity in belongings is needed.
Heavy and multiplied draperies,
carved furniture, tuf'ed upholstery
are still too much in evidence. Com
plicated arrangement is opposed to
sanitation Everything that simpli-
fies household furnishings increases
the possibility of that perpetual
cleanliness which is tile only right
domestic standard, as well as chief
requisite of hygienic living. AS this
principle is recogniLec and applied
the passing of ''house cleaning" will
be accomplished.-N. Y. Post.

gone back on me.
