tion by section. Aid. Birkel objected

ter. it being obvious that II switch
must be placed somewhere.

The ordinance as presented provid-
ed for the company's standing for he
improving of seven feet of the street.
but this was changed to eight feet
upon motion of Aid. Birkel. On the
section fixing the fares ut the rate

section which was adopted. with the
consent of Mr.. LaTdner. providing
that the company do all its construc-
ton and rebuilding work i'm the
shops in this city during the life OF
the franchise. 90 years. Mr.. Lardnel
stated that there is an ordinance in
force in Davenport requiring the
company to do all its repair work on
cars used ON both sides of the river
over there, but that this is relatively
unimportant when compared to the
extent of the construction and re
building operations regularly carried
on and that il is the intention of the
company to do the latter on this
side of the river anyway.
The motion to report back TO the
council the ordinance as amended

Oriental Rugs.

"Oriental rugs" says a New York
dealer. "are nearly as standard as gold.
When an auctioneer sells you one for
5000. you may think you are getting 1t
cheap. bet you can get it at about the
same price from any reputable dealer.
Every rug house has its agents at auc-
tons who pay mighty close to the mar
krt price for the genuine article. When
you have had an oriental rug for ten or
fifteen years. 1t is worth more than
when ycu bought It, provided 1t is in
go0d condition. 1t Is then an antique.
When you hear Of any one buying Sec
ondhand oriental rugs at about one
third or one-quarter Of their value. you
may safely wager that they have been
patched"

A TcIenhone Whistle.

When the earpiece of telephone re-
ceiver is held to the mouthpiece OF the
trarsmitter. more or less shrill tone
or whistle is heard in the receiver. This
occurs when the apparatus is in good
working condition and when the trans.
mitter is on short circuit. This effect
is seemingly due to series of reactions
analogous TO but much more complex
than those which occur in an electric
bell when its circuit is closed. y move
ment Of the diaphragm Of the receiver
toward its magnet tends 10 weaken the
pressure on the carbon Of the transmit
ter, which causes weakening Of the
current. allowing the diaphragm to fall
away. with the further result that the
air column Is compressed. increasing
the pressure on the carbon again and
also increasing current strength, where
by the diaphragm in again attracted,
and this action is repeated over and
over agaiu.-Cassier's Magazine.

The Human Mouth.

1t has been discovered that the hu-
man mouth is slowly but surely and
steadily moving toward the left OF the
face. which Will IN time bring it some
where in the neighborhood Of the left
ear. All the five great races OF man
have an uncomfortable tendency to eat
only with the teeth which grow from
the left jaws. This wears out the left
teeth more rapidly than those on the
right side Of the mouth. and this in
turn gives the upper and lower jaws
an inclination toward the left.
1t is the expressed opinion Of many
scientists who are foremost in the
worlds roll of professional honor that
I'm the course Of time the mouth from
causes above mentioned will have COM
pletely changed its position and that 1t
will then be situated rather nearer the
left ear than to the nose.

EXERCISE AND EATING.
Remember That Tired stomach II
q Weak Stomach.

A good dinner at night is necessary
for those whose pleasure or work keeps
them up very late. But for ordinary
folk who dine at or and go to bed
about 1870 only light wholesome re.
past should be taken at the end of the
day. when muscles and nerves are
more or less exhausted.
A "tired stomach is weak stomach
is a golden rule to remember. Yet how
often one hears people say, I've been
rushing about all day and am tired &c
death; must have big meal to make
up for it.w You may put the big meal
into the stomach, but you cannot make
the stomach digest it.
A belief lives strong in the hearts and
minds of the majority Of mankind, in
cluding persons Of weak digestions,
that O quick, brisk walk taken before
a meal gets up an appetite and helps
the stomach to digest the food. Now,
this is exactly what it doesn't do. En-
ercise spreads the blood throughout the
body. For the proper digestion of food
the blood is needed in the stomach.
Few realize this important fact.
After a long, exhausting walk, bicy'
Gle spin or any severe physical or men
tai strain take good half hours rest
in comfortable armchair or lying on q
sofa before you eat q substantial meal.

THE STATEHOOD ISSUE

That the statehood question will
 play an important part in the forth.
 coming territorial campaign, seems be understood and agreed upon by the leaders of both political parties. Not long ago the Review published a
 letter from the Hon. M. A. Smith. Ari-
 zona's delegate to congr ess, in which
 he stated that it was absolutely neces-
 sary, all argument or statements to
 the contrary. that Arizona return a
 democratic delegate to congress this
 fall. We believe Mark Smith is bet
 ter posted on the situation of the om-
 nibus statehood bill in congress than
 any other man in the territory. He has
 labored necessarily for the past ten
 years for the success of this measure
 He has talked with every member of
 congress regarding its passage, and
 being so keen for it's final success, we do not believe Mark Smith would send word to his constituents in Ari- zona that il was absolutely necessary for Arizona to go democratic this fall if 1t was not the truth. Under the present conditions. 1t has generally been accepted by both parties, that one of the first bills to be passed at the short session of congress is the omnibus statehood bill admitting Ari- zona to statehood. Under the pres ent understanding the republicans would gain four republican senators. two from New Mexico and two from Oklahoma anl the democrats would gain two from Arizona.
 It is as certain, as anything politi- i cally can be. that. Oklahoma will re- turn Flynn CRep.) to congress and New Mexico, ,Rodey (Rep).
