With growing deficit in the reve' nues of the government, and the ap- propriations larger than ever before in time of peace, the taxpayers must look forward to either return to the war taxes, or enforced economy. Un- der tlhe present administration the ex- penditures for the army and navy alone are $1s5 100000 greater than Tor the last year of the Cleveland admin istration. and other departments are run on about the same extrayagant calfbre. More taxes or economy in ex- penditures will soon be imperative. While the appropriations for pensions were &18221, 900 less and the expendi- lures for rivers and harbors $S,648,OOO less under Roosevelt for the fiscal year beginning July 1. 1904, than under Cleveland in 1So4-5, the appropriations for actual warlike purposes were $18S,. 5e9, 900 greater. On the whole, Roose- velt's administration has been nearly twice as expensive as Cleveland's, and the increase has been due nearly all to militarism.

ADropos Of the lack Of ranges for rifle practice in this state, the follow. ing will be of interest 10 the marks men who have no place to test their skill: England learned bitter lesson in South Africa, and hundreds of ranges are being provided to train the civilians who will make up her future volunteer armies. We have done prac, tically nothing to date to provide this most necessary part of our national equipment, and much time and consid- erable sums of money must be ex- pended before any real reliance can be placed in our volunteer troops, When war is declared time must be spent in training recruits ip }, guard duty and the ordinary open and close order drills, and no time is had for rifle practice of any considerable ex- tent. Plans have been formulated by the national board for the promotion of rifle practice which if supported will correct this difficulty, and congress certainly should appropriate whatever may be necessary to put the country in defensive condition in this re- spect.

 That the submarine has come to stay is proved by the fact that Great Britain, the strongest naval power in the world, and once the most bitter op- ponent of this type of vessel, has adopted them, says a writer in Out look, and to the United States belongs the credit and to John F. Holland the distinction of making these boats success. England has simply adopted the American designs, and it is of more than passing interest to note that the American and English boats seem to be vastly superior to the French vessels.

One campaign orator predicts the following things if Roosevelt is elect ed president next month: "For four years more, some of our manufactur- CTS, who sell habitually to foreigners in foreign markets and in the home of foreign 'pauper labor at reasonable profit to themselves, are still to find in an exorbitant tariff rate a shelter behind which to charge the American consumer an unreasonable profit; to charge Americans prices 25 per cent to 50 per cent higher for identical goods turned out of the same mill, on the same day, than foreigners are made to pay! For four years more the Steel trust is to continue to charge railroads, operating partially in Canada and partially in America, $28 per ton for such of its rails as are laid down on American soil, and $19 to $21 for such as are laid down on Canadian soil, and during this time the railroads, neces- sarily of course, will continue to charge the American farmer, mer- chant, miner, labortng man, bridge
 builder and house contractor whatever
 freight is needful to earn a dividend
 on the ST to $9 of unnecessary and ex-
 tortionate difference! For four years
 more government will continue to
 threaten the business relations and
 the racial peace of the south! For four years more we are to continlla to
 govern the Philippines arbitrarily and altogether within the direction and dis erection of the president and his secre- tary of war, without regard either to congress or the constitution! For four years more we will continue to boast about the Northern Securities decision
 as the be-all and end-alp of trust shackling, while bidding all other trusts God speed, as necessary agen-
 cies of modern development against
 which we promise mot to run amuck.' "

LOOK OUT FOR YOUR TEETH.


 Keeping the teeth in good condition is livery simple matter, yet perhaps more people sin in this particular point of cleanliness than in any other. I know young men, and women, too, who dress livery well and seem to take considerable bride in their personal appearance, yet neglect thier teeth. They do not realize that there could hardly be worse blot on ones appearance than dirty or de- lcaying teeth, or the absence of one or two in front Nothing can be more of |fensive than in man or women than a foul breath, and no one can have decay ling or dirty teeth without reaping this Iconsequence. We all know how disa- greeable it is to be anywhere near a person whose breath is foul. It is positi- lvely nauseating. No employer wants a tclerk, or stenographer. or other ernplo- yee about him who taints the whole att
 mosphere of the room in which he is.
 Nor does he, if he is at all particular,
 want one whose appearance is marred by lack of one or two front teeth. Many an applicant has been denied the position he sought because of bad teeth. l1OW easy IL IS tO pieSeTNG Liletil when they are naturally good! Any one can do 1t. Brush them after each meal with stiff enough to remove all part licles of food, but not SO stiff as to injure the gums. Warm or tepid water should be used with a little powdered orris root which helps to keepthe breath sweet Any other good tooth powder may be substituted, or the occasional use of a little fine salt will be found beneficial. If fibers of meat, or particles of any other food that cannot be removed with Ia brush, lodge between the teeth, they should be removed by wooden tooth- pick. On no account use a pin, or a pen- knife or your fork. In passing let me add, do not use a toothpick at.the table, on the street, or anywhere else in pub Ilic Nothing can be more ill-bred or dis- gusting. Do not try to crack nuts or to bite any hard substance with your teeth This causes the enamel, or outer protective covering to break. which is the same as if you were to break the skin on any part of your body. When the enamel is broken the tooth begins
 to dec.iy, and severe pain an unpleas- lant breath are the results. Violent changes of temperature, such as from ice cream to hot coffee, also cause the enamel to break. If, in spite of proper icare. your teeth trouble you, you should immediately consult a good den- Itist. Do not go to a poor one because he happens to be a little cheaper. You will find that a most pernicious sort of economy. Makeany reasonable sacrifice rather than go about with a front tooth iof two missing. for besides seriously Interfering with ones speech, a grinning vacancy where tooth should be has a most injurious effect on ones appear
 ance It is wise thing to have your teeth examined at least once year by a good dentfst.-Success.

down the flies to the place where the trout lie in expectancy. If the stream is powerful good length of line may be unreeled and the flies sent on, thus obviating all danger of frightening the fish.
 There is need of care even in we'll known waters, for one gets surprising ly big fish in this way at times. One man using the lightest tackle and land ing trout from 8 quarter to about three-quarters of pound, suddenly found himself fighting a four-pound fish in a contracted part of the stream with trees overhanging. He was only saved from disaster by the cleverness of his guide, who backed up the canoe to a better place by gradually taking advantage of the upstream rushes of the big fellow.
 A second fish made one long dash down the brook and bounded over a waterfall, over which no canoe could possibly pass. An attempt was made to land and make the portage, but the fish was too heavy for the tackle in such water and snapped the catgut

YEsTERDAY,S STOCK MARKET,
Heavy Demand for Union Pacific Again
 in Evidence.

New York, June 15.-The heavy de- mand for Union Pacific which develop ed yesterday before the market closed was conspicuously in evidence again
 this morning and was supplemented by sympathetic strength in Southern Pa- cific. The movement in these stocks dominated the whole market, and the news developments regarding them were taken to explain the recent move ment of the market in general, so that some realizing in the general list fol- lowed the days news. The early sur mises over the ground for the heavy
 dealings in the Paciflcs covered a wide range, including a Southern Pacific re- funding scheme and an incidental set clement of the whole controversy over the transcontinental field of railroad ing. With the publication of this plan Southern Pacific promptly ran off sharply under offerings of very heavy blocks of stock. Its weakness and the intermittent strength of Union Pacific kept the market unsettled and confus- ed for the rest of the day. Southern Paeific's weakness was due to the un- pleasant impression caused by large

HOME MADE GOWNS.
How to Judge if They Are Well

How to Judge if They Are We'll
 Made
 One thing is annoying about home made productions" said a pretty wo- man whose limited income prevents her from going to the best places for her gowns, and who prefers to take her chances, with the assistance of little dressmaker, in fashioning her costumes than to patronize what she calls sec ond-rate establishments, "and that is, 2 she continued, "that the only test of their merit is when they are worn in a crowd of well dressed people. You can put them on before mirror at home, land think how we'll you look and how pretty they are; and afterward, when you catch a glimpse of yourself in a mirror, standing by some well gowned woman, turned out from a French ate- Her, you will suddenly see that the dress you thought so pretty and was so well pleased with is dowdy and ill- made, and you feel in consequence quite wretched.
 But, on the other hand" she added cheerfully. If you find, then, that your home made gown stands the test of contrast. and appears smart and nice looking among confections from Farce, the good opinion which it evokes of yourself is quite stimulating"
 Looks vary in their values as much as clothes do in a crowd. A woman will sometimes suddenly lose her pret- tiness and shrink into insigniticance simply because of standing next to some unbecoming friend, who is apt to score by the others obvious disadvan- tages. Of course it would be impossi- ble for a sensible girl to choose her companions with a view to her appear ance, but it does seem a pity sometimes that a girl who would be pretty and attractive with the right entourage un- consciously spells all pretense to good looks on her part by going with some girl whose appearance accentuates her own deficiencies.
 A girl who is short, for instance, looks under sized with a tall compan- ion. A stout person shows to great disadvantage when standing beside a slim one; and so on. One has only to notice the law of contrast in others to understand how it may affect ones self. New York Tribune.

THE LARGEST TURTLE
Weighs 1,200 Pounds and Is a Scientific
 Curiosity.

Weighs 1,200 Pounds and Is Scientific
 Curiosity.
 The monster turtle, weighing about 200 pounds. captured by George Evich in the power launch Bell is reported to be the largest turtle ever known, and the capture is, therefore, considered inn portant from scientific standpoint The turtle belongs to the species Testudo lyra or Sphargis mercavialis. This family is chelonian. The largest marine turtle previously captured was taken in the Galapagos group of Islands several years ago and was taken to London. t weighed $50 pounds and avs konwn to have been over 80 years of of it's death. What the age of the tur- tie captured by Evich is is a matter of conjecture, but it is estimated at from 100 to 300 years
 The chelonian family of turtles possess tails but no teeth. Jaws are provided with horney sheath with hard and sharp edges, forming beak like parrots Marine turtles are lspread over the equatorial and subtro- lpical seas, and sometimes stray beyond these limits, being seldom taken above San Diego. The chelonians are diurnal animals, and only a few of the family lare active during the night They are Iextremely rapid in the water, either to seize their prey or escape danger. The marine turtle periodically migrates to breeding stations. The species inhabit- ing temperate waters hibernates
 The marine turtle possesses great tenacity of life, surviving injuries to which other reptiles would succumb in a short time. The heart of decapitat- ed marine turtle will beat many hours after every drop of blood has been drained from the body, and the muscles of the trunk and head show signs of reflex action twenty-four hours after the severirlg of the spinal cord. Some marine turtles are herbiyorous and others carnivorous, their prey consist ing of fish, frogs and other small aquatic animals.
 The limbs are modified into paddles, by means of which they propel them selves with extraordinary rapidity through the water but are unfit for locomotion on land, where the progress of these animals is as awkward as that of a seal. The toes are inclosed in a common skin, cut of which only one or two claws project.
 Comparatively few are caught in the open sea, the majority being intercepted at well known periods where they go ashore to deposit their eggs. These are verynumerous, from 100 to 150 being produced by one female and buried in the sand. These eggs are usually covered with hard thick shell.- Angeles Times.
