The Ohedlent Child.

There was once little girl who
found it very hard to wash her hands
just before dinner. She meant TO be
clean for the table. but there was so
many things TO think Of that II was
impossible to remember. Her mother
reproyed her very severely one day,
and she promised to do better. That
day at dinner her mother asked the
usual question, Have you washed
your hands, dear:"
Yes came the satisfied reply.
Her mother looked smilingly down at
the little ones hands, and then she ut
tered an exclamation, for there was
no sign that soap or water had been
used on them. Why, your hands are
black" she said. Didn't you say you
washed them"

A great many persons are troubled
with pimples on the face. which are un-
slightly at best, and especially annoying
when they come, as they often do. on
the nose. OF course they arise from
some impuriiy of the blood and need
constitutional treatment. but until It's
is obtained safe and easy way of pre-,
venting them is to apply arnica TO the
skin. A plmple never comes without
warning. A few hours before there is

When asked if in his opinion the indie
pendent copper companies would fight
the AmalgamaTed. Mr. Greene said:
AS far as | know. the independent
copper companies will do no more than
to endeavor to convince the Anal
gamated that copper should be quoted
at good price and an effort made to
prevent serious fluctuations There is
a greater demand for copper than ever
before and the drop in price is not
caused by the supply being greater
than the demand. The present price
OF copper was not brought about by any
la wof trade. but by manipulation. 1t
seems 10 me tnat fair price for cop
per would be Is cents. Al this price
the producer could reap a profit and
the buyer would not Ire forced to suf-
fer a hardship. Il expect 10 see those
interested in copper come to an agree
ment before long by which the price OF
copper will be raised about two cents
per pound / do not believe that the
present condition is 10 be permanent,
Referring to the rumor that rail
road officials recently visited Cananea
with a view to building the Cananea
railroad on to Guaymas MIR. Greene
said: Il am sure tEat this road will
be built some day but that is a long
way in the future and nobody is work
ing very hard on the project now.
When built the road will run to the
coal fields near Guaymas and then on
to that city. This would mean an
other line 10 the Orient"
Mr. Greene will return to Cananea
from Tucson and remain there about
a month experimenting the improve
ments that are now being made. While
there he lives in his private car and
not in his new residence as 1t was
supposed that he would do.
