Not a Paying Proposition.

Norcross Bros. had the contract for
building Holy Cross College in Massa-
chusetts. A gang of men were engag.
ed to prepare the cellar for concreting.
One rainy day the foreman, wishing
TO keep his men employed, sent too
many to work in the cellar. The re.
suit was that each man was in the
way of the others.
The foreman, happening along,
stood watching the men at work.
Finally he said; I'D like TO get a
dollar apiece to throw every one OF
you out of the window"
A stalwart Irishman, some six feet
tall and very muscular glanced up
and casually remarked: BE jabers,
but you'd starve at it."

limit on the amount for which the
bank will contest.
The directors of the Casino Com
pany of Monte Carlo. the official title
OF the concern that conducts the gam
bling resort, recently struck balance
for the year. They found a profit that
a Standard Oil corporation might not
scruple to own, a matter of $7,00e,000.
1t is rare business enterprise that
can coin MONEY at that rate.
This sum is divided among the
shareholders and operators, a large
portion going to the heirs of NJ. Blanc,

The rental of the great gambling
palace is a huge item of cost Until
last year the Prince of Monaco forced
the Casino company to pay $250.000
year. but in view of the Increased
earnings, he has just given the price
another raise. and in the future the
institution will pay s350,000 for the
purpose of conducting the most noted
dollar exchange In the world.
The directors welcome the big play

on the occasional stroke that will
bring him homo winner. even
though the sum he takes away may
seem to be a staggering one.
They well know that the game is SO
arranged that in the end the money
must all come back to them. and
there Is enough in their strong bank
TO tide over any drain.
Those stories of breaking the bank.
which recur frequently, emanate from
people who do not know the condi-

is con ceivable that the supply of
ready cash might be exhausted for a
few hours. but there is always plenty
more obtainable, and the player who
stays and fights it out with the bank
will always come out the loser.

The British government will reim-
burse the naval officers for the money
they spent In entertaining the French
fleet at Portsmouth. A naval officer
said recently to the London Express:
Il understand there is likely to be a
bit of an outcry when the Second
cruiser squadron gets back to Eng
land about the heavy outlay to which
the officers have been subjected dur

in the different messes have to stand

Carried Away Large Sum.
Vanishing from the neighborhood
of his blissfully ignorant victims, he
returned eventually, accompanied by
a friend of his own sex and profes-
sion and couple of beautiful and
we'll dressed women. The party
ranged themselves two on each side
of the trente-et-quarante board. and
while the croupier was shuffling the
cards preparatory to starting a fresh
set of deals, the woman on one side
engaged the umpire in ingenious chat
asking explanations of how the
game was played, and so forth-while
she on the other requested umpire
No 2 to supply her with gold change
for a banknote.
At the precise instant when the
croupier was ready TO begin one of
the women dropped so louis on the
floor, creating a most unseemly d.
version and attracting all eyes from

carrying with them 10000 francs of
the banks money. At the door of the
Casino a smart carriage awaited them
and in five minutes they were whirled
across the frontier.
The secret of Ardisson's staggering
success only became known when too
late. Horrified at the loss to the bank,

Health
 In Phoenix
H. Goodman Says Care of Digestion
 Solves Problem of Lonq Life.

No one in Phoenix has a better chance than the druggist to know the condition of the city's health, and what diseases are the most common.
 H. Goodman believes that the prob lem of long life is solved by proper care of the digestive organs. Let the stom- ach get out of condition and soon there will be nervousness, irritation. furred tongue, specks before the eyes weak ness, debility, indigestion. and other physical and mental troubles that di- rectIy result from weakened stomach.
 Of all the vital organs. the stomach is the most frequently abused, and hence, the one which most frequently fails, and so with the discovery of a remedy like Mi-o-na stomach tablets, which is sold on an absolute guarantee to strengthen the digestive system. aid in assimilation of food. and cure all troubles caused by indigestion, an im- pOrtant step has been taken towards solving the question of good health and long life.
 Take one of the little Mi-o-na tab lets before each meal, with the fixed determination mat you are going to get well. and it will not be many days be- fore you can eat anything without fear of indigestion.
 H. Goodman sells Mi-o-na on an ab- solute guarantee to refund the money if it does not cure. A large box of the tablets costs but 50 cents, if it helps you; nothing if it fails.

Adjutant General B. W. LeaveIl has just received a communication from the war department with reference to the encampment for which provision is made by the army appropriation bill.

Under the arrange ment the National Guard of Arizona may go into encampment at Austin Texas. The encampment will be held from August 1 to September 30.
 In compliance with the communica- ton from the department Col. LeaveH is making inquiry of the captains of the various companies as to the mum Der of men in their commands who would likely take part in the encamp- ment.
 Another matter which is engaging the attention of the adjutant general is the preparation for the shoot at Seagirt, beginning September II.
