THE ARIZONA CANAL
 NEARLY REPAIRED
The Prote ction Association Will Have
 Important Meeting Tomorrow.

The work of repairing the Arizona canal will be completed this week. The breaks in the banks of the canal are all repaired and the work has been done in first class shape under the superintenGency of Dan McDermott It is said that Engineers Newell and Parish who inspected the work on Tuesday approved of the manner in which ie was done. The force of labor CTS is now diggsg chandel from twelve to fifteen feet through the sand in the bottom of the canal. which ex- tends for about 4.00O feet from the head of the canal down the ditch and is from three tC three and a half feet deep This is absolutely essential to procure the benefit of a rise in the river.
 Had the work of repair been com nenced a month earlier a good head of water would have been running in the canal during the recent rise of four or five feet. The work now be- ing done is executed in a substantial way and there is no doubt but that it will stand the test. It is costing more than was anticipated and the ranchers are putting up the money. A meeting of the Arizona Canal Protective as sociation has been called for Friday at l o'clock and will be a very important one as matters will be discussed that the association considers vital to the welfare of the valley

NEVER INTENDED. Man Prevents the Intent of Providence

We do not believe that Providence which placed us in a world filled with countless delights, ever intended that we drug ourselves, bring on disease and live cheerless, unhappy and pain filled lives.
 On the contrary, the joys of each day should make us look forward with pleasant anticipations to the coming of the next; without health this is inn possible.
 We have, to an extent the power to command that health.
 A lady writing from Meadville, Pa, says that for 20 years she was a great sufferer from headaches (which were frequent, and confined her to her bed for 24 hours at a time) and kidney troubles; that she employed numer- ous physicians from time to time and took much medicine but got no help; that one doctor said her spine was af flicted. another that her sufferings came from female weakness. a third that her eyes brought 1t all on her etc, etc, but that when the truth was reached it was found that her coffee drinking habit was alone responsible that she was coffee pOisoned.'
 So the good Samaritan told her about Postum Food Coffee and she deter mined to quit using the old kind and see what the new would do for her. She consigned the medicine bottles to the trash barrel along with the coffee canister and began to drink POstum.
 "At first I did not like it." she says, but when 1 learned how to prepare 1t found it 2 most agreeable and re- freshing beverage. l soon began to feel better, the headache grew less and less frequent and severe, my sleep became natural and restful, and now. after . years use all my troubles have disap peared including the affection of the kidneys, of which I was at one time most apprehensive.
 My weight has increased 9 pounds.
 q wish to speak within moderation. but I tell you the truth when I say that life looks brighp sto me now, and I could not if I would and would not if could, give up Postum and go back to the old kind of coffee again. Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.
