VERDE WATER AND POWER co.
Official Description of Their Canal
Rights in Arizona.

The letter printed below, which was
received at the board of trade yesterday
Is self explanatory and interesting as
showing the official records concerning
the cnterorise of the Verde Water *
Power company. By carefully follow
Ing the descriptions given of the canal
zine accredited to the company, on one
of the maps smade locally, it is found
identical with the canal heretofore
Known as the enterprise of the Aqua
Fria Canal company. and which is
further west than the area most people
have heretofore imagined was to be
reclaimed by the Verde people. Wheth-
or there Is an error of description or
whether the Verde people have acquired
the Aqua Fria holdings is the question
that naturally arises.

Few people can understand the feel
ings of the pugilist as ne is being counted
out. He hears the seconds licked off
He struggles to rise, but struggles in
vain. He has lost the fight.
There are some who are making a
losing fight for life that can appreciate
this; those whose lungs are diseased
With every tick of the watch, they know
that they are being counted out.
The great question is how can a quick
rally be made to continue the fight
against disease? Many who have asked
that question have found satisfactory
answer in the use of DR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. 1t cures bronchitis,
obstinate, deep-seated coughs, hemor-
rhage, night sweats, emaciatiOn, and
other conditions which if neglected or
unskilfully treated may find a fatal
termination in consumption.
when commenced taking DR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery " writes Mr. Tohu T
Reed, of Jefferson, Jefferson Co, Ark, ~ was
very low with cough, and would at times spit
up blood. was not able to do any work at all
was weak and my head was dizzy. The first
bottle took did me much good that I had
faith in It and continued until I had taken
twelve bottles. Now do not look like nor feel
like the same man as 1 was year ago People
were astonished and said they did not think
could live. / can thankfully say that I am
entirely cured of disease from which had it
not been for your wonderful Discovery would
have died"
There are cures behind every claim
made for the Discovery" which no
"just as good medicine can show.

Deafness is caused by an inhamed condi.

you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the in
Illumination can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh

The Magnetic North.

The belief in the constancy of the magnetic compass to the north pole has not the least foundation in fact. At ev- cry different place on the globe it points in different direction, and only one or two of them are due north. In London. for instance, it points to place about 1T degrees west of north. Seventy-six years ago 1t was still further away, be- ing then 2414 degrees, or quarter of the way around to the west. In the year 15S0 it pointed II degrees east. Then it began to move north till 1859, when Il pointed due north. But 1t remained thus only for moment, passing around to Its greatest Geflection in 160 years
 Again it turned in 1920. and Is still mov- ing nearer the north. It will not reach that point fer nearly century and a half, and so 1t will go on backward and forward fcreyer.-N. Y. Herald.

 HOW A TREE IS MURDERED.
An Instance Which Illustrates the Difficulty of Destroying
 One.

A gentleman of means living in sub urban town tells how his mother once undertook to murder cherry tree, says the Chicago Chronicle. T was boy at the time," he said. "The tree stood on our lawn; it had been planted by my father, and he loved it with parental affection; but it was an eyesore to my mother, for she thought it spoiled tho looks of the garden.
 s'She decided to murder 1t secretly. because she knew that my father would never consent to it's removal. For a long time she pondered, asking herself how she might kill the tree without be, ing detected, and finally she decided that she would use for her weapon boil ing water. Accordingly whenever my father was away she would get a kettle and, tiptoeing out to the tree with a guilty look, she would pour boiling water upon It's roots.
 At first the tree showed no change under this treatment. After time, though, change began to manifest itself. My father noticed 1t.
 ".By jove, he said, my cherry tree seems unusually fine and hearty
 And this was fact. The more boil ing water my mother poured on the roots the more the tree thrived and flourished. Finally, in despair, she gave up trying to commit her vegetable mur- der.
 "A florist, to whom she narrated this strange story one day, laughed when he heard it. He said 1t was no wonder the tree had gotten along so well. He de- clared that boiling water was often used on trees, as it killed off the worms and bugs molesting them"
