Thomas A. Edison, the great Amer
 iean inventor, says; "Fuly eighty per cent of the illness of mankind comes from eating improper food or too much food; people are inclined to over-in- dulge themselves. ' This is where in digestion finds its beginning in nearly every case. The stomach can do just so much work and no more, and when you overload it, or when you eat the wrong kind of food, the digestive or gans cannot possibly do the work de- manded of them. It is at such times that the stomach needs help; it de- mands help, and warns you by head aches, belehing, sour stomach, nausea and indigestion. You should attend to this at once by taking something that will actually do the work for the stom- ach. Kodol will do this. It is a com bination of natural digestants and veg etable acids and contains the same juices found in a healthy stomach. It is pleasant to take. It digests what you eat. Sold by Hanna's Drug Store.

JANANEA PROPERTY THAT GAN DO BUSINESS ON A FIFTEEN
 CENT MARKET
SOME INTERESTING FIGURES ARE MADE PUBLIC BY MANAGER
 WALTER DOUGLAS
Wonderful Showing of the Sierra de Cobre Property of the Phelps Dodge Indiana Sonora Company, Which Is Operating in the Cananea District.

BISBEE, Ariz., October S.-The re port below, issued in June and recently made public by Manager Walter Doug las of the Copper Queen mining inter. ests on the Sierra de Cobre property of the Phelps Dodge Indiana Sonora com, pany, in the Cananea district, is of much interest as showing the character of ore being mined at the property and as showing that it can operate profit. ably even with copper under 15 cents shipping to Douglas at that. Mir Doug. las says:
 In the month of May we shipped ap- proximately 2,400 tons of ore to the Douglas shelter, which are had a com. position as follows:
 Copper, 3.3 per cent.
 Silver, 2.9 ounces.
 Gold, trace
 Silica, 7.2 per cent.
 Lime, 3 per cent.
 Alumna, 5.6 per cent.
 Iron, 22.2 per cent.
 Sulphur, 27.l per cent.
 The ore cost S3.I9 per ton to shelter and the average freight amounted to "A cents per ton.
 The gross value of the ore with cop per at 23 cents per pound and silver at 65 cents per ounce, amounted to Sl4.45 per ton, leaving a net return to the mine of s9.92 per ton. With copper at 20 cents the gross value would be Sl2.67, net returns to the mine, $S.14. With copper at l5 cents, the gross value would be $9.70, net return to the mines, $5.17.
 At our present rate of production, and with copper at 23 cents, the rev enue to the mine would be $23,s0s less cost of transfer. With copper at 20 cents, this revenue would be reduced to s9,536, and with copper at l5 cents, to sl2,40s. Our profits from store, rents. and meat market run about $500 q month, which amount can be added to the revenue from the ore.

SALTON SEA HAS
 BEEN SUBDUED
NOT so MUCH A WORK OF CHAR ITY AS A BUSINESS PROPOSE TON WITH THE MANAGEMENT OF THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC.

YUMA, Ariz, October 7.--The South ern Pacific has seen the last of it's trou- bles with the Salton sea. The water has receded from the tracks of the main line near Imperial Junction, Cal, until all danger to the tracks from the waves, when wind is high, is past. The force of section men stationed at the edge of the inland sea to prevent it from washing out the roadbed has been transferred to other points along the line, and the large supply of ties stack ed up around the station at Imperial Junction has also been shipped away, as there is no further use for any ties in the emergency work.
 While the closing of the break in the Colorado river was heralded throughout the country as a great piece of public charity on the part of the Southern Pa cifc by which thousands of acres in the Imperial valley were saved, as well as the homes of the settlers from the ray

ages of the river, the truth is that the diverting of the river to the gulf was hard-headed business proposition on the part of Hartman and was carried through by Colonel Randolph, who was in active charge.
 By the expenditure of large sum of money in turning the river, he could save large sum that would be neces sary to construct high line at an ele- vation that would be safe from the en- croachments of the Saton sea with the Colorado pouring its waters into it.
 Incidentally, the Imperial valley was saved to develop into one of the richest feeders of the Southern Pacific branch line to CalexicO.

,,,rr. INSIST THAT GRAND JURY INVESTIGATE CASE AGAINST
 SALOON MAN
y,y SEND ATTORNEY GENERAL TO YUMA TO INSURE ACTION
 BY THE JURY
nstrict Attorney Robertson Said to Have suffered Fractured Rib at Hands of an Offended Gambler Who Was Augered by Attorneys Order.

District Attorney Peter T. Robertson of Yuma county is having a rather hard ,,W 10 hoe in the enforcement of the late anti-gambling law passed by the rsyislature. says the Phoenix Repub- H,an. It is reported by the Yuma pa. rs-s that gambling has been continued aBite openly in Yuma. The chief meth ol is by the running of games not spe- F6,alv mentioned in the law but which are gambling games nevertheless. Re gently the district attorney promulgated sD order to Sheriff Livingston, direct ing him to notify all gamekeepers that tbev must close their games and that in the ease of saloon keepers failure to l1 so would make them liable to pro felure for abating nuisance and the fsnteling of licenses. The sheriff did So and the first time the district attor- rev appeared on the street he was as aulted by one W. H. Lyon.
 l. has been learned since then that Mr. Robertson is quite seriously hurt, having suffered a fractured rib.
 The incident has been noted at the governor s office by reference to the Yuma papers, and the governor is very indignant over the matter, assuming of course that the facts are as stated. He is making an inquiry and proposes to see that the law is upheld. He will take the matter up with the attorney general and if it shall transpire that the district attorney is not in condition to attend to his duty when the grand jury meets next week, i tis not unlikely tha. ihe attorney general will be there to ses that the case is looked into and the territorial statutes enforced

THE DRUG STORE.
Its Evolution From the Apothecaries OF
the Colonies.

Its Evolution From the Apothecaries OF
the Colonies.
During the seventeenth century the
druggist came to America and closely
followed English precedents, modify
ing them, however, by the practice OF
the Indians, with whom he came in
contact. Quack apOthecaries began to-
spring up in the new land, and in 1896
the colony of Virginia passed law
which among other things regulated
the prices and fees of the druggist
At this time it was fashionable for
the druggists to practice surgery in adj
dition to pharmacy, and the Virginia
colony contained a large number OF
people who were proficient in both pro-
LESSONS. In Massachusetts the bust
ness was largely in the hands OF
Indians, schOolmasters, old women and
teachers. The Salem witchcraft de-
fusion retarded the spread of the drug
gist for some time in the Bay State,
for the popular impression fastened ON
the apOthecaries a suspicion that they
sold the pOtions that were supposed to
produce the spells. Among those who
suffered persecution at this time
mixers of medicine appear to have
been prominent
The drug shop had not yet become a
distinct institution. 1t was usually q
branch OF the grocery or spice bust
ness. In 1871 one Giles Forman OF
Boston. had, however, firmly estab-
lished himself as devOting special at
tentiOn to pharmacy. In 1913 the first
distinctive drug store in America was
opened in Boston by William Davies
-LippincOtts.

A Horses Memory.

My father had a fine driving horse
that was intelligent and had learned
Il number Of tricks. One night he was
stolen, and no trace was found of him
for nearly two years when, one day,
father met stranger driving the horse
and of course claimed him. In the dis
pute which followed father remarked
that if it was the horse stolen from
him he would on being Embarrassed
go to the gate, lift the latch, open tina
gate, go around the barn, slide the
bolt, open the door and go into the
third stall. The man agreed to give
the horse up on those terms. They
drove home and up the lane to the
barn and embarrassed the horse, when.
without moments hesitation, he per-
formed the feats father said he would

How Snake Poison Kills.

The action of poisons upon the sys-
tenn is and always has been one of the
most interesting Of subjects. Just how
and why it kills have been determined
through series of experiments made
by scientists. The following descrip-
ton is one Of the best and most lucid
Of any that has been given to the pub
lie: ''The venom may be roughly sepa-
rated into two parts, one acting upon
the blood and the other upon the
nerves. When injected it Immediately
begins to create terrible destruction
sin the blood vessels. The walls of the
veins are eaten away, and an internal
hemorrhage takes place While this
is going on a portion of the venom is
attacking the nerves. Particularly
susceptible TO its ravages is the vase
motor system, Il nerve center which
controls the muscles of respiration
Paralysis takes place in these organs,
and the victim generally dies from an
inability to breathe. "-EXchange

Where Titles Are Cheap.

discover what were the services for

There used to be another plan for be-
coming a baron. 1t appears that there
is-Or was then-a convent which once
had large possessions. All its tenants
were, by the fact of being tenants,
barons. But the convent had lost its
possessions with the exception of one
farm. 1t had an agent in London. For
q very moderate consideration the
Egent let this farm to would be ten

next applicant he retained the title

EDIBLE COFFINS.
Pastry Making In the Early Stages 81
ENGLISH Cookery.

At a very early period the orientals
mixture of -four, oil and honey, and
for centuries pastry making went no
further, even among the nations in the
south of Europe But in the beginning
of the middle ages a change began to
take place in the method of mixing the
ingredients. and some other substances
were brought into use. Butter, eggs
and salt found their way into pastry
making, and the result was manifest
improvement. Paste next came to be
used as an Enclosure for meat, seasoned
with spices, etc. Afterward it went a
step further, the next use being for the
Enclosure of creams, fruit, preserves.
etc, and later still it began to take the
many fanciful shapes in which it has
since been commonly found In the
early stages Of English cookery the
pastry cases were called collins or
"coffynes" and were made in various
sizes from "gret coffynes with lowe
liddes" for the ''tartes Of flesche" to
the "smalle coffynes" for "tartolettes'
of ''fische or flesche," mixed with
"stuf Of boylled fgges ground and good

Shrew," it may here be noted, calls q

THE LOST SOVEREIGN.
A Trick That Is Sometimes Played on
the London Cabhy.


the London Cabby.
Have you ever tried to play on a cab
man that old joke of the lost sOver-
eign? It's very funny. A friend tried
it last summer in London and succeed
ed too. He took GROWER after mid
night at Piccadilly Circus to go to his
lodgings at Bayswater. Remembering
the staleness of the lost sovereign"
dodge, he thought it would hardly "go
down" with bright, cunning cabby,
but resolved to try for the fun of it.
Just as he came in front of a public
house a few doors from his home the
fare" stuck his head out of the cab
window and ordered the driver to halt
Il say, cabby, I've dropped 4 Sow 1t
must be on the bottom of the cab. Just
pull up at that pub till I run in and
get a match, so that 1 can find the
coin"
"All right, SIR said the cabby and
pulled up opposite the door Of the tav-
ern. The fare alighted and had taken
scarcely three steps in the direction Of
{ the pub" when, 10. Mr.. Cabby whip
ped up his horse and flew away into
the darkness of the night, carrying
with him. rs he supposed, that sover-
eign snugly concealed in the cushions

about which many Of us have but the

surrounded prevent US from fully APP
preciating what it can be at times.
The people of the island of Chinco-

half wide, have, however, opportunities
for judging this experience, which they
must find the reverse of pleasant On
its eastern side and between it and the

also a mile and half wide, but the
power with which the waves come is
SO great that at some places the surf
sweeps entirely over both islands,
