FOR WOMEN
Much That Every Woman
Desires to Know
About Sanative Antisep-
tic Cleansing
And About Curing Lucrative
Pains and Weaknesses.

Too much stress cannot be placed on
the great value of Cuticura Soap, Oint-

local and constitutional treatment for
weakening discharges, alterations, In
Examinations, itchings, irritations, relax
afions, displacements, pains and irregu-
l~arities peculiar to females. Hence the
Cuticura remedies have a wonderful
influence in restoring health, strength
and beauty to weary women, who
have been ~prematurely aged and in
validcd by these distressing ailments,
as well as such sympathetic Affections as
anamia, chlorosis, hysteria, nervous
ness and debility.

appreciated the purity and sweetness,
the power to afford immediate relief,
the certainty of speedy and permanent
cure, the absolute safety and great

THE AMERICAN GIRL.

OF course we have known her charm
ing qualities for a long time. but the
following tribute of an English noble
man is of interest:
The American woman is the most
glorious production Of the American
civilization. No means are spared To
perfect the American girls education
no money lacking to purchase suitable
adornment for her person. Is it to
be wondered al when she comes over
here and takes her place like one o!
the a n born among the fairest
flowers of our ~aristocracy?
1T is not necessary for an American
woman to marry a title to be received
among the aristocracy abroad. Her
grace. her charm. her independence,
her perfect poise and assurance will
open any door TO her. and think that
she is beginning to realize this. A
cuke or a prince may be proud to have
IN American girl for his wife. but 1t
better could he feel always that
he had won her because he was a man
ana she loved him than because he
Was : nobIeman."

tant institutions and enterprises for

The Albuquerque democrat
devotes a column of it's editorial page
to discussing why it would be better
for New Mexico to be annexed to Col
orado. and Arizona to California, than
that the two territories be consolidat-
ed. To the New Mexican, it looks as
ii the expedient would be jumping
from the frying pan into the fire as
as New Mexico is concerned. COnsol-
idation with Arizona would mean that
New Mexico would dominate the af-
fairs of the new state, but annexed
to Colorado it would lose all SEM
blance OF individuality. Consolidation
with Arizona would be a bitter pill
but annexation to Colorado would be
infinitely worse. Rather another ten
years of territorial government than
being reduced to the status of Las
Animas or La Plata counties in the
Centennial State. New Mexico at
present has some semblance of self
government out as a part of Colorado
it would have its laws made and en-
