CHEER UP!
Why Worry About Indigestion When
 PepsikoIa Will Give You Relief.

Why anyone should worry about indigestion" said the head clerk in Bears drugstore, lis hard for us to un- derstand.
 We have been selling Pepsikola for several months and in all our eXperi- ence we never knew a remedy to give such universal satisfaction.
 We know four or five chronic old dyspeptics on the verge of despair for years who today are cheerful and hap py all because of the beneficial effects of the little chocolate coated tablet taken after each meal.
 If people only realized what a won derful remedy it is and how much good it has done right in this very town they would not doubt or hesitate another minute" Words cannot express the great good it has done in Phoenix and Pepsikola must be a remedy of more than unusual merit for if MT. Bear had to refund the money to very many dis satisfied customers he would certainly discontinue selling it on his own per sonal guarantee. Ask yourself if this is not true.
 If you are thin, nervous, worried and low in spirits just cheer up and try a twenty-five cent box of Pepsikola on the druggists say so and if it fails to give you a new nerve force, new am bition and new energy you can get back your money without any question or argument.

of the spectral colors, and sometimes almost extinguishing the stars, so that momentarily they appear to go out. Tn high, dry countries where the atmos- phere is quiescent, these waves are generally diminished in importance and astronomers have noticed that in such localities the scintillation of the stars almost ceases. There the air Is quite free from 'aSitating currents, and the astronomers can make good observa- tiOns.
 It is worthy of remark that but for the brightness of the sky the stars could be seen in daylight. Even as matters stand, some of the brighter of them have been seen after sunrise by explorers in high mountains, where the air is very clear and the sky dark blue. If we could go above the atmosphere the sky would appear perfectly black and stars would be visible right close up to the sun. Astronomers observe bright stars in daytime by using long focus telescopes, the dark tubes of which cut off the side light and per- sons in the bottoms of deep wells have noticed stars passing overhead, the side light being reduced by the great depths of the wells.

EMPHASIZES LIFE SHORT.
First Class Fighting Vessels Last an
 Average of Five Years.

A modern navy is not one of the cheap luxuries. Senator Hale stated that the navy department proposed to retire the battleships Oregon, Indiana, Massachusetts and Texas to the pur- pose of coast defense in 1908. The Oregon was launched only in 1896, SO that her life as a first class fighting ship will be only twelve years.
 The Oregon cost $5,O00,000, ut the hattleships now are costing $S,000. 900. Any warship now becomes virtually obsolete in a dozen or fifteen years, and we must figure on practically re- placing our navy at the end of that period. A merchant steamer lasts on the average twenty years.
 . It is we'll known that the big naval guns are also very short-lived. The biggest ones are worthless after a hun dred shots. The metal becomes cry stalized by the shock of the explosions and loses its tensile strength, thus making it dangerous. Hence a bonn . bnrdment costs not only in the am intuition used, but even more in the wear and tear on the gun itself Naval authorities speak of these things light lv. for it is not their money that is be- Ing spent. but. as matter of fact, a warship is the most expensive thing s:HaGiEable to run.-Pathfinder.

THE OLIVE QUESTION.

This question has been bothering us a long time: why do people urge others to eat olives? What IS there about the olive that people should make fuss about it if one doesn't choose to eat it. We never heard it claimed that the olive had any particular medicinal or nutritive qualities, or any other req son advanced why it should be substi tuted for something really palatable We do not like olives. In fact we hate olives. Why is it when we are frank enough to say so that people always looked pained and surprised, and at once begin to suspect our birth and breeding? Some say if we will eat three in succession we will like them. Others put 1t at five or nine. Whats the idea about learning to eat olives? We do not care a whang whether we like them or not. We wouldn't eat as many as two in an effort to acquire a taste for them. The olive is acrid and unpleasant. It hasn't a single good quality, and we knock and knock hard on the people who try to force us to eat them.

WHY THE STARS TWINKLE.
Due to the Effect of Aerial Vibrations
 s- Ether Waves.

The great aerial ocean over our heads is made up of an infinite multi tude of moving currents and streams of varying density and temperature, all in process of continued change and adjustment due to the beating of the atmosphere by the sun during the day and cooling by radiation at night. The atrnosDtere is full of little waves or streaming masses of air. somewhat re- selnbling the nipples in shallow stream of water flowing over gravel. And if the astronomer will point his telescope on a bright star and remove the eyepiece. so as to look directly up on the object glass illuminated by the light of the star. he may see these streaming currents dancing in all their complexity. It is these little waves in the air which cause the tw1nkling of the fixed stars. As the waves are passing before our eyes they act like prisms, defecting the light first this way and then that. producing flashes

THE WOMAN BEAUTIFUL.
3. L. Bear Tells Why Laxakola Beau
 tifies the Skin.

Drop in most any time now and you are apt to see one of the clerks wrap ping up bottle of Laxakola. Phoe- nix ladies have learned of the ramark- able effect of Laxaliola upon the bile pigments, and the beneficial action it has upon the skin and complexion is really surprising. MT. Bear will tell you the demand for it is increasing rapidly, not so much on account of the advertising, but because this or that lady drops into the store with the statement that she has been recom- mended to try it.
 Probably no other remedy ever made so enviable a reputation in so short q time, for Laxakola is sold now in al- most every prominent city in America.
 Should you need q mild. safe, gentle liquid laxative that will improve your appearance, cure constipation and make you feel better in every way, try a twenty-five cent bottle of the great tonic laxative, LaXakola, and your on- ly regret will be that you did not know of this splendid remedy before.

 "No, the filters are not all women by any means. If a woman is very partic- ular about the fit of her corsets, as some Of them in professional life have to be- they do not mind in the least having them fitted by a man. Women filters have not sufficiently strong wrists for that class of work. Customers who can afford it have their corsets made to or der. It costs about one-third more than buying them ready made.

we'll as twine are made from it. c. w. Crawford, of Indianapolis, explained the nature of the new product:
 For the last ten years or more" he said, "the wheat harvest season has as- sumed the aspect of bugbear to farm- CTS who did not have a large supply of twine on hand. Without twine, binders cannot run, and without binders it is impossible to harvest wheat.
 The only variety of twine that could be used in the past was the manila var iety. imported from the Philippine is- lands. The supply of that always gave out before the harvest ended, and the lack of 1t often occasioned great loss. The new wire grass has proved to be equal if not superior, to manila tw.ne, and the farmers may rest easy now."- Louisville Courier-Journal.

There was a time. not long since 9 said the superintendent in a fashion, able department store, "when a woman bought her corsets by number, just as man buys his collars. She stepped up to the counter and ordered 1T, 19 or 22, as the case might be, without a thought of trying them on. She took them home, laced them and trusted to luck for good fit. If they were too large she made up her mind that she was losing flesh. If they were too small, she worried because she was gaining flesh.

"A 'clubable' sister does not come to the; meetings with a chip on her shoulder looking for some one to knock 1t off, nor does she arrive with her mind made up in advance to object to everything that is going to be brought up.
