Anna Gould has obtained her di- vorce from her French Count "Boni" who was nearly a pauper with ti- tie when they married, and whose income was over $5. 900, 900 per year as 'husband' of the Gould girl. The divorce leaves him again pau per. This ungrateful wretch was as vile a brute of a husband as ever known. While Americans rejoice to see justice administered to the worthless royal pup" no sympathy is lost on Anna Gould, or any other woman who ''buys a husband. " Consuelo Vanderbuilt is also being treated in cruel manner by her En- glish duke, having found that he will not inherit as much as he ex- pected; and no sympathy need be lost on her, as she is just as guilty as Anna Gould.

The local paper should be found in every home. No children will grow up ignorant who are taught to appreciate the home paper. It may be called the stepping stone of intelligence in general information of all those matters not to be found in books. If you give your children only the city papers which contain little or nothing about the people they know, or the places they have seen, how can you expect them to be interested? Let them have the home paper and read of people whom the meet and of places with which they are familiar and soon an interest is awakened and increases with each arrival of the well edited paper of their home town. Thus a habit of reading is early formed and with it comes information that gives desire for study and research. There is no greater educator than the good old home paper that comes regularly with its columns we'll filled with home news.

The next legislature should pass an anti-gambling bill. Tucson and Douglas have already prohibited it, Phoenix is about to hold an election for that purpose and other cities are falling in line. The statutes of Arizona should be purged of the section permitting licensed gam bling. It is a disgrace to the Ter ritory. The cities should not be put to the expense of holding spec ial elections to abolish it. The next Council is Republican. Many of it's members are known to oppose gam bling. If the next House is right on this question we venture to say that there will be no more trouble putting through such bill and that Governor Kibbey will hasten to sign it.-Tucson Post.

There is neither sense nor justice in raising the postage rate on sec ond class matter, which includes newspapers and magazines. Purely advertising sheets should be exclud- ed but all printed news and maga- zine matter is for the benefit of the masses. They should have their reading as cheaply as possible. Then if the thousand of tons of franked government matter were counted and reasonable rate only paid to railrods for carrying the mals, the ledger would show bal ance in favor of the cash drawer. No change should be made in the present newspaper rate.

TO GIVE A ROOM EXPRESSION
Simple Arrangements of Draperies
Has Good Effect.

We all remember how we formerly
drew pictures of very angular men
and women. A circular line repre-
sented the head. Two dots made two
eyes. The mouth was line But this
was when we were very young.
For very soon we gave an upward
curve to the mouth to represent JOY.
But a downward curve represented
grief Our crude art had struck the
keynote to expression-the same key
notes that gives a room expression,
and without which the room--be 1t
decorated ever so well-lacks "soul."
One element which can best give
character to a room lies in treatment
of the top trims of doors and windows,
because these are salient and frequent
details looming largely on the walls.
Usually these trims are plain,
straight, horizontal, and the horizontal
line is neutral, with an inclination
toward severity. In the average home
these ungainly horizontal top trims are
hidden SO far as the windows are con
cerned, by gathered valance OF drap-
ing not possible in the door.
Expression in a room Is not neces-
sarily confined to the shape of the
top trims of doors and windows.
Height has always been associated
with stateliness, and informality has
been associated with the reverse-or
merely moderate heights. Therefore
less costly way to simulate height
and it's reverse may be achieved by
the use of movable plaque shelves.

we illustrate in this article.

He's Studying Brands.

Mir. Frank J. Duffy is now putt hng in some of his spare time study ing brands, and in q few days will be able to tell at a glance the diff. ference between a Mexican brand and an American brand. Tuesday Mir. Duffy had occasion to visit Washington Camp. Calling a hack he stepped into the vehicle and started out. To MT. Duffy all hacks and horses looked alike and he noted not the Mexican brands on the horses. But to Uncle Sam's line riders there is marked diff ference in the little matters refer red to. The hack Mir. Duffy step- ped into had just crossed the line from the Mexican side. As it was seen to leave the town and start on a trip into the country on the American side, the matter was brought to the attention of Cap tain Willard Wright, who is al- ways watching for such little over sights of the customs laws on the part of border residents. He ac- cordingly followed and overlook the hack between town and Wash ington Camp, siezing the outfit, horses and all. Not caring to walk the remainder of the distance to Washington Camp. Mr. Duffy re- turned to town in the vehicle. He can now tell the brand on a Mex ican horse as far as he can see it. The Mexican driver was allowed to take his outfit again, but was cautioned against driving too far from the line, on the American side.

HAVE WHAT THEY WANTED.
Now That They Have It, the People
 of Nogsles Should Support It.

Less than a year ago there was not in Nogales a properly fitted up ice cream, soda and confectionery parlor. And there were times dur ing the hot weather when a dish of ice cream or a cool, refreshing soft" drink could not be purchas ed There were days and weeks when desired fruit could not be had at any price. Now 1t can be had every day in the year if desired. Early in the fall Mir. w. $. Davis visited the line city Mr. Davis is an experienced dispenser of the drinks and dishes people crave when the hot waves are passing across the southern deserts. He saw what was needed in Nogales and at once began preparations to fill the want. During the past winter he has established good business here and now has one of the best fitted up ice cream and soda parlors in the southwest, and handles the finest candies and fruits on the market. Every day fresh fruits and candies are brought into Nogales and every day his customers can have fresh goods. His soda fountain is always bub- bling and at least one of his ice cream freezers is always full of the frozen refreshment. It is never served on hot dishes, to melt be- fore it is tasted.
 It is an easy matter to fit up a cheap little stand, serve cheap goods in an inferior manner for what can be gained from a tenn porary trade, then leave town. It takes money and enterprise to fit up first class place, supply the hest people with the best goods and establish permanent business. Ani such enterprise and good service always IS and always should he supported by people who ni-h tu retain in their town an establishment that can be depend ed upon to supply their future wants.
