Porfessor Ternow, of the Cornell
School of Foresty says that, lumber
ing, if it is carried on for thirty
years as 1t is being done to-day,
there wont be any left. To prevent
the supply from being totally ex-
hausted, he recommends reseeding
the cleared districts. The pro-
fessor's head Is level, reseeding
would be good thing, but before
growing new forests he should in
vent some way OF protecting the
old ones from the incendiary. AS
one of our exchanges says, more
forests have been destroyed by fire
this spring than would have been
demanded by lumbermen in the
next ten years.

Miss Helen Vanderslice succeeds
Miss Allen in the B. Intermediate,
and Miss Vanderslice's former place

THE NORMAL ORCHESTRA.

Some years ago the Normal
School Orchestra was organized,
partly because such an organization
properly belonged to a music de-
pattment that had assumed the im-
portance and proportions of that
branch Of the Normal course, and
partly because it was needed for the
many occasions of public exhibi-
tions and entertainments at the
school. There was no orchestra in
the town that could fill the bill,
because the quality Of their music
and the quantity of their price
rendered prohibitory the engage
ment of local musicians. Miss
Stump, now Mrs. w. B. Sutliff,
undertook the formation ofan orches-
ira at the school, and since that
time they have been able to supply
good music for all their functions.
The orchestra as at present. consti-
tuted, is the best they have ever
had. During the past week they
have been playing daily, and the
character of the music, and the skill
and precision with which it is exc
cuted, would he creditable to per-
manent orchestra of professional
musicians. There are a dozen or
more members, most of them stu
dents. For commencement week
a few instruments from outside
have been added, including Lam
bert McHenry, cornet, DeFotest J.
Hummer, cello, MIR. Foulke. clari-
onette and double bass viol from
Danville.
The work that is necessary to
accomplish what has been done by
Mrs. Su.liff cannot be appreciated
by the general public. 1t takes
much time, patience, and practice
to make a good orchestra of per-
manent members. In this instance
where the membership changes
several times a year, it is all the
more difficult. Any school can
have what they call an amateur
orchestra. There are very few
schools that have a musical organ
ization that comes so nearly up to
the standard of professionals as does
the Normal orchestra of 1908.

EARLY CLOSING.

The agitation of the early closing
movement has been going on for
some time, and has eliminated in

compliance. The following speaks
for itself.

MORE FACTS ABOUT PEPsIkoLA

why MT. Ben. l.. Bear recommends it to his customers for dyspepsia.
 "I have sold many so-called dyspep- sia cures since I have been in busi- ness,' said MT. Bear to a representa- tive of this paper, but I must say that nothing has ever given such uni versal satisfaction as Pepsikola."
 T had heard that druggists in other cities were having a large sale for it. and as the manufacturers authorize me to guarantee it to cure dyspepsia or refund the money. I was very glad to secure the agency for Pepsikola.
 MY success with this remarkable remedy has caused me to wonder : continued MT. Bear. 'as the demand for it has made new record in my store"
 No one need have dizzy spells. sick headache biliousness. nervousness. loss of appetite, sour stomach. coated tongue, restless nights, or any other symptom of indigestion and dyspepsia if they will use Pepsikola.

SLOW READING.

If you were to travel across an in- teresting land, would you prefer to go through on a limited express. or to walk through, with plenty of time for side excursions and sightseeing? And yet-Surely the moral is obvious. Some young readers find in a good book about a. dozen times as much treasure as others carry away from it; and you are fortunate if you are like a young girl who said: "I cant read a good book fast. I cant understand it if I read it fast" She is likely to become we'll read in spite of herself.

 well, you told him no, didn't you?'
 No; told him it wasn't any of his business. And then he said he'd have to charge me letter postage on it. That made me furious and I said, I don't care what you charge Well, he said, the postage will be 36 cents. I said that was al right, and I paid him the money. But I got ahead of the prying, impudent thing, after all.'

THE REsoLT OF A JOKE

1t Shows that Arizona Papers are
 Read Outside of the Territory.
 Readers of this paper will remember of reading a short time ago a josh" about a new bank that was to be insti- tuted at Kyrene. J. F. Sturgeon, Carl Hayden and Dr. c. A. Jones were men tioned as the promoters of the affair. Nothing was meant by the article; it was simply the outcome of a talk in regard to A. J. Hansen's sugar beet ranch at Kyrene.
 It seems though that the account was seen by many others besides resi- dents of the Salt River Valley and to judge from the amount of correspond ence and the different places the let ters are from that it was read all over the United States. They have received offers from banking institutions at New York, San Francisco and many other large cities to act as agent of the new bank at that place. The following extract from a letter is sample of one of the many received.
 "J F. Sturgeon, Esq, care of New
 Bank (Organizing). Kyrene, Ariz.
 Dear Sir: Information has reached us that you are about to organize a new banking institution at Kyrene. and we avail ourselves of the opportun- ity to offer to you and those associated with you the services of this bank as New York correspondent and reserve depository.
 "The fact that we represent a larger number of banks and bankers than any other institution in this city will. we trust, commend itself as sufficient evidence that we are Tn a position to understand and appreciate your wants and meet your requirements"
 While the article printed was only a joke it has its serious side and shows very aptly to what extent Arizona pa pers are read and that considerable at tention is paid the territory in the east and elsewhere.
