SUNDAY. December 81, 1905, Mail
Carrier Charles G.. Russell came
over from LaPcinte in his sail boat
and returned without encOuntering
ice. Tuesday he, accompanied by
three others, walked over on the ice
and returned in safety. Thursday
morning following no ice was to be
seen.
Give man ten cent cigar and he
will beam all over and love you for
six hours; offer him the ten cents
with which to buy it himself and he
will throw It in your face. Give him
a pass to show and he will call you
d good fellow in all the languages at
his disposal; offer him the money To
buy ticket and he will call you a
fool Ask man to your home to
take spot luck and he will jump at
the chance; give him 81 and tell him
to get a meal at cafe with your
compliments and he will knock you
down. The dollar is mighty but it
isn't warm. Nothing chills hospi-
tality more than touch of cold
metal. You may spend money on a
friend but you must rot ask him to
touch it. Silver isn't a gocd con-
ductor and you can't transmit half
as much cordiality and hos pitality
to friend through the medium Of a
dollar as by means of bad cigar.
Money substitutes for good looks
and good sense with great success,
but can't take the place of good
fellowship worth a toothpick. Elk.

A LUCID NEW MEXICAN.

The Albuquerque Journal. the chief jointist paper of New Mexico. is not without a high degree of lucidity on the principal phase of the statehood situation, the result of the election in Arizona. It warns those over san guine friends of statehood who will pretend to think that Arizona will give a majority in favor of jointure" that nothing of the kind will happen. It has discovered "the very paIpable fact that the people of Arizona are over whelmingly opposed to the pending proposition and will therefore de- feat it.''
 The Journal bases this disheartening conclusion upon the republican senti- ment of this territory as recently re- hected by The Republican. which stated that the temper of the party would exclude from active participa- ton in the campaign this fall all re- publicans who are not opposed to jointure.
 The Journal was aware that demo- cratic opposition in Arizona to joint statehood was practically unanimous. When to that is added the equally unanimous republican opposition there is left in the mind of the Journal no hope for jointure.
 In this view of the case the Journal declines to waste any wind or time on "any matter connected with the organi- zation Of the joint state because there will not be any joint state under the pending proposition"
 Up to this point nothing could be more sensible. We commend the fore going to the benighted Star and Oasis of Arizona. which still pretend to be- Iieve that there is hope for jointure.
 The Journal querulously continues: When congress amended the bin so as to put absolute control of the matter lated the fundamental principle of popular government and made a farce of the whole statehood business, so far as these territories are concerned"
 It concludes with an exortation to the New Mexicans to waste no energy in preparing any machinery for a state government but to go ahead and see how many voters may be induced to say ''Yes" to the naked principle of joint statehood Though statehood is certainly doomed, thinks the Journal something may come of big majority by and by.

We are in receipt of a copy of The Isle of Pines Appeal" devoted almost entirely to its advertising patrons and the case of Messrs. Giltner and Angus tine and Miss Millie Brown, who were arrested and jailed for conducting a toy telegraph Inc without the con- sent of the military authorities. The thing that strikes us from casual perusal of the paper Is that the Cuban authorities on the Isle of Pines either are unable to read the English lan- guage or else they are abnormally in different to or tolerant of newspaper criticism. Whatever unfortunate con ditions may prevail on the island there is certainly freedom of speech there.

LAT1N-AMERcAN ILL WILL.

Secretary Roots visit to the South American republics has come none too soon if the United States is to secure amicablc relations with those states. We say secure" advisedly. for the word retain would not accurately express the sentiment entertained in those countries toward our own giant republic. From Mex'co the most northern of the Latin American re- 'publics, to Argentina in the south, the United States is regarded with sus- pcion and apprehension on account Of the alleged imperialistic and expan- sion policy attributed to this country.
 A body of students in Uruguay re- gently decided to ignore all functions in honor of MT. Root when he visits Montevideo. A clerical paper in the City of Mexico approves this resolve and declares that such action should be initiated by all social groups in South America" This is not surpris- ing. since clerical interests throughout that continent have long been un- friendly to the United States; but it is significant at this time as showing a disposition to fan the flame of hostility toward American influence.
 But the most serious manifestation of an unfriendly feeling, toward Ameri- cans has appeared in Mexico. Our re- lations with that country for many years have been exceedingly cordial, and continue so with the government itself; but there has been growing uI spirit of hostility among certain classes of the people which has been encouraged by the clericals and con servatives and which Is now finding expression in what has been called a Mexican know Nothing" movement

FACTS IN NATURE.
Not Only Do We Get Inspiration Fr01
 Nature, But Health as We'll.


 For people who are rundown and nerv ous, who suffer from indigestion or dys- pepsia, headache, biliousness, or torpid liver, coated tongue with bitter taste in the morning and poor appetite, 1t be- comes necessary to turn to some tonic or strengthener which will assist Nature and help them to get on their feet and put the body into it's proper condition. It Is becoming more and more apparent that Natures most valuable health giving agents are to be found in forest plants and roots.
 Nearly forty years ago, Dr. R.V. Pierce, now consulting physician to the InYalidS' Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y., discovered that by scientifically extracting and com mbining certain medicl- nal principles from native roots, taken from our American forests, he could pro- duce medicine which was marvelously efficient in curing eases of blood disorder and liver and stomach trouble as we'll as many other chronic, or lingering ail- ments. This concentrated extract of Natures vitality he named 7Golden Med ical Discovery" It purihes the blood by putting the stomach and liver into healthy condition, thereby helping the digestion and assimilation of food which feeds the blood. Thereby it cures weak stomach, indigestion, torpid liver, or bill iousness, and kindred heterogeneous.
 If you have coated tongue, with bitter or bad taste in the morning, frequent headaches, feel weak, easily tired, stitches or pain in side. back gives out easily and aches, belching of gas, constipation. or irregular bowels, feel flashes of heat al- ternating with chilly sensations or kin dred symptoms, they point to, derange- ment of your stomach, liver and kidneys, which the "Golden Medical Discovery" will correct more speedily and perma- nently than any other known agent. Con- tainS no alcohol or habit-forming drugs. All it's ingredients printed in plain Eng fish on wrapper.
 The sole motive for substitution is to permit the dealer to make a little mOra profit. He gains; you lose. Accept no sub Stitute for "Golden Medical Discovery"

Maids OF Honor and Their Duties

instance. as the presentation of medals
by the King to soldiers returned from
service abroad or the distribution of
badges to hospital nurses,-at which tho
Queen is present without her maids Of
honor. In all royal professions, more
over, these ladies occupy the carriage
Immediately preceding that in which
the Queen herself is sitting.
Unless requested to join the royal
family at luncheon or dinner, maids Of
honor, after having placed a special
bouquet upon the dining table at the
Queens right hand, retire to the dining
room kept specially for the other la
dies and gentlemen of the household.
But they are again in attendance upon
her Majesty Immediately she enters the
drawing play the piano, to
sing, to read, to play bridge, to do nee
dlework, painting or any amusement
or occupation which Queen Alexandra
may decide upon.
Until the Queen retires for the night
the maids are not free from their re-
sponsibilities. Although very compre-
hensive, the duties of a maid of honor
are not arduous, the Queen being q
most considerate and kindly mistress.
And, of course, should one of the maids
marry during her term Of office, Queen
Alexandra, as has been the custom of
the court for centuries, presents her
with $1,000 as dowry. Her Majesty's 8
consent, however, must be obtained for
the match. Most of the maids marry
exceedingly well, their position In the
court naturally bringing them in con-
tact with highly eligible suitors.
