NOT WORRYING ovEA CONTRACT.
No Matter What She Signed, Woman
Would Pay When She Liked.

"Do you know what you signed?'
asked the man, as the woLian laid
down her pen.
why, yes" she replied. 81 signed
a contract to pay for a piano in SO
many months at the rate of so many
dollars per month"
How do you know you did," asked
the man. you didn't read the con-
tract"
II know that" said the woman 1T
wasn't necessary. | haven't time for
that. | know what | told them down
at the Office yesterday"
THAT is just like woman" said
the man. impatiently. They clap
their names to any kind of docu.
ment without reading it over. So care
less are they about such things that
half the women in the land would
sign their own death warrant and not
know it."
Then the man read slowly through
the written agreement.
Here, he said, 'is a mistake, first
pop. Fortunately you are dealing with
a reliable firm that will rectify it. If
you were buying from some jay con.
Germ that would hold you to your bar
gain you would have to make your
payments on the 18th of every month
instead of on the list, as you wish to
do"
ooh that's nothing" said the
woman. serenely. Don't worry about
that. I'll pay whenever | get ready.
no matter what the contract says"
ooh, excuse me" said the man. per.
haps that explains why. all women
think 1t unnecessary to read whatever
papers they sign"

All women work; some in their
homes, some in church, and some in
the whirl of society. And in stores,
mills and shops tens of thousands are
on the never-ceasing treadmill, earning
their daily bread.
All are subject to the same physical
laws; all suffer alike from the same
physical distur bance, and the nature of
their duties in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds of female complaints, ovarian
troubles, liberation, falling and dis
placements of the womb, leucorrhpa,
or perhaps irregularity or suppression
of monthly periods causing back
ache, nervousness, irritability and
lassitude.
Women who stand on their feet all
day are more susceptible to these
troubles than others. fff.
They especially require an invigorat-
ing, sustaining medicine which will
strengthen the female organism and
enable them to bear easily the fatigues
of the day, to sleep well at night, and
to rise refreshed and cheerful.
How distressing to see a woman
struggling to earn livelihood or per-
form her household duties when her
back and head are aching, she is so
tired she can hardly drag about or
stand up, and every movement causes
pain, the origin of which is due to
some arrangement of the female Or
ganisEi.

Failed to Capture Whales.

Excitement was caused recently
among the shipping at Port Elizabeth,
Cape Colony, by the appearance OF
two large whales, a bull and a COW.
Their gambols were watched by a
large number of spectators. Several
fishing boats and tugs went after
them, and one succeeded in getting a
harpoon home in the COW. A whaler's
crew then had an exciting time, the
whale towing the boat about the of.
fing until nearly three o'clock, when
it managed to break away. More
boats and tugs then joined in the
chase, but failed to get within strik-
ing distance.

THE ISSUE.

1t is encouraging to see all the rail- roads and big mining companies in Ari- zona fighting against the joint statehood bill. The Enterprise warned these peo- pie several months ago that if they did not want to be subjected to New Mexico legislation, wherein their taxes would be raised 1000 per cent, they had better move in the matter, but Walter Douglas and his people were too busy trying to remove Governor Kibbey and fighting to prevent paying their just taxes to give heed to this unimportant matter, but now that the woods are being she'll ed and the enemy advancing, these men are shrieking about injustice. We'll there is one thing certain that if Arizo- na and New Mexico are joined, the pro- ducing mines of Arizona will % on the tax roll for at least $l00,000, GOO, and the railroads will be raised in proportion. Now if these corporations can stand this, the people surely can So it is up to them to get into the harness and WORK. -Ph@nix Enterprise.
 The Enterprise has hit the nail on the head. That is the real is sue. The Enterprise has stated it. That is why THE OASIS has stood for ioint-statehood It wishes to have Arizona have the help of the people of New Mexico in the neces- sary work Of raising the assess ments of the great railway and mining companies to figures where they should be-not quite one thousand per cent above present assessments, but pretty well up toward that figure. That would be justice.
 Does the Enterprise stand against iointure because 1t is stand ing in with the railway and min- ing companies to help them con.

EASILY DONE.

It will take the politicians long time to accustom themselves to Senator Foraker's advance step in the matter oi abolishing railroad passes The pass and the politician have come to be con- sidered as being one and inseparable.-- Arizona Gazette.
 The proposition would be the simplest thing in the world by in- ducing or compelling the railway companies to deal with the politi- clans in the same way they have dealt with the newspapers several years past-make them render itemized bills for services rendered and square the account with one thousand mile tickets issued to the makers of the bills.
 Formerly the newspapers were granted passes, and 1t was general ly supposed hey were given as recognition of the value of the newspaper in buildingup the region tributary to the railway. Under that arrangement THE OAsIs editor had always an annual pass over the lines of the Southern Pacific, and was given trip passes when wanted for any member of his fam- ily or an employe. About four years ago the system was changed, the relations of the company with the newspapers being put upon a business basis" was the way the circular letter to all the newspa per put 1t. The newspapers were to render monthly bills itemized for all advertisements and local notices, etc, ordered by the rail- way agents, the amounts thereof being credited to the account of the newspaper Against that the editor is given one thousand mile tickets, at regular rates (three cents per milel for himself and wife, and for any member of this newspaper staff having occasion to travel fre- quently. In actual application the plan has worked finely. TIE

THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.

Leave the question of jointure of Arizona and New Mexico in a single state to vote of the people in constitu- tional election. That is what THE OASIS has stood for ever since the project was preached. If the peo- pie vote down constitution that will end the matter, and this jour- nal will bow to the will of the peo- pie. But until the people have voted upon a constitution there has been no voice of the people. When they do vote upon consti
 tuition this newspaper believes that the people will vote for adoption. No one has any right to say what the people want until they have had an opportunity to express themselves by--first: sending de. legates to a constitutional conven- tion; and, second: by passing upon the work of that convention.

tinue in the work of evading just taxation?
 The Enterprise says that If Arizona and New Mexico are joined the producing mines of Ari- zona will go on the tax roll for at least $100,000,O00, and the rail- roads will be raised in proportion" Of course they will. And they should be so raised. Does the En- terprise believe they shonld not stand such raises2 THE OASIS be- lieves in the raises foreshadowed by the Enterprise, and in joint statehood it sees the only hope for accomplishing those needed re- suits.
