TEASING AND PRACTICAL
JOKING.
BY Beatrice Fairfax.

Teasing and practical joking are as
easy ways to make a person unpopu-
lar as any know of.
Some people take teasing good ma
turedly, others lose their tempers over
it. all Of them dislike it.
The tease as rule cannot put up
with the slightest bit Of teasing him.
self. Nevertheless, he makes the lives
OF others a burden by his petty teasing
1t is all done in an attempt to be
funny.
l remember a girl at boarding
school whose life was made absolutely
miserable through the teasing of an
other girl. l do not think the latter
realized how very unkind she was or
she could not have kept 1t up. She
never lost an opportunity Of holding
her victim up to ridicule, and seemed
to have a genius for ferreting out the
most sensitive subjects.
Teasing is not alone unkind. 1t is alb
solutely tactless.
Many a promising courtship has
been spoiled by the foolish teasing of
some meddling onlookers.
The two young people are made so
self-conscious that they grow up to
avoid. almost dislike. each other.
All the world loves a lover, but II
all the world would mind its own bus
mess while the lover is attending to
his. things would go more smoothly.
childs disposition can be quite
ruined by teasing. It makes him ir-
ritable, suspicious and self-conscious.
AS for the practical joker. he really
should be suppressed.
He goes to any amount Of trouble to
play joke that is not funny to anyone
but himself. Very often his jokes are
most unkind and put their victim to
untold annoyance and discomfort.
No one enjoys being made to appear
ridiculous or foolish. and that is the
practical joker's chief aim. to make
laughing stocks of his friends.
He spares no pains and will work
over scheme for days. That he loses
G. friend every time he INDUCES In one
OF his misplaced pleasantries makes
apparently no difference to him.
II you are living or working among
number OF people. don't practice
teasing or practical joking unless you
wish to make yourself exceedingly
unpopular.
The former is an irritating. disa-
greeable characteristic: the latter
when carried to an extreme. becomes
positively dangerous.
The tease t. never sympathetic. Il
1 he were she would not ne tease. and
sympathy Is very lovabl equality.
The power Of being able to put your
self in another's place wins man,
friends.
When you are tempted to tease any
one or play Joke. just stop and asl
yourself how you would enjoy tn
same teasing or joke. That may hell
you to put a check on your inclinatior
in that line.
Remember the tease and the prac
teal Joker have few genuine friends.

the immediate admission of Kansas

the once infamous "Ostend circular"
which was document issued by the
agents Of President Pierce in Europe

Of the far south. The circular is de-
nounced as a "highwayman's plea

resolutions demand aid for the Pa

GETTING COUNTIES
 DOWN TO SYSTEM.
EXCELLENT RESULTS OF VISITS OF TERRITORIAL ExAMlN-
 ER FOSTER SHOWN.

Territorial Examiner W. C. Foster was fin Tucson Thursday enroute from Nogales to Phoenix. He has just com pleted an examination of the Santa Cruz county offices.
 Before going to Nogales MT. Foster spent some time in Graham county where he found everything In good shape. He is compelled to do consiG- cra5le visiting in Graham county for although the court house is located at SOlomonv.lle. the assessor resides at Thatcher. while the county school superintendent is a resident of Sat ,ferd.
 MT. Foster stated that gradually the counties oc the territory were set tling down to one system of account ing. This was one of the purposes for which the office of territorial ex- aminer was created. The examiner makes his reports to Gov. Kibbey.
 Thus far none of the reports have been given publication. One of the reasons assigned for the keeping of the reports from the taxpayers eyes is that there is>no provision made for their publication. Over in Yuma county at the present time the citi- zens would like very much to see the last report that MT. Foster made. It is known to a certainty that some of the county officials there are slightly hauled over the coals."

Not Arrested Though a warrant was issucd in this city for the arrest of H. Ii. Shriber, he was not arrested in Douglas yesterday. The complaint was sworR to by Bralovich & Rafaeio- vich. local grocers, and charged Shri- ber with trying to evade the payment of a grocery bill of s43.s0. Shriber was said to be in Douglas yesterday. Several other local firms complained yesterday That Shriber owed them money. There is come doubt in the minds of local officers whether or not Shriber could be prosecuted for go ing to Douglas. They are inclined to think that he will have committed no oyense unless he tries to leave me Territory.
