Seeing that the most desirable building sites were outside of the northern border of the section line. which runs in an east and west line across the w. K. James property. many of its members began building outside of the limits controlled by the club; so upon resolution, adopted at one of its annual meetings, the club leased an additional 40 acres just across the section line. thus controlling all lands near and contiguous to the city and Boulder Hills.
 The officers of the Iron Springs Outing club for the ensuing year are: r. T. Alkire, president: w. K. James, secretary and treasurer. Board of di- rectors. E. J. Bennitt, Lloyd Christy, w. Bennitt. F. Rays. A. C. Mcqueen.

Professor Charles s. Minot of the
 Harvard Medical School, Is publishing in The Popular Science Monthly a series of articles on the problem of age. growth and death. in which he
 argues that we grow old most Apidly at first He sa.s: We learn. then.
 that bacteria may in few hours add | 1000 per cent to their original weight
 and t !s got by any means an exor- bitant demand upon our credulitv to accept the conclusion that in their ' early stages rabbits and other mann
 mals and birds are ca-,able of grow | ing at least l00e per cent a day If this be true. and it doubtless is true.
 we can adopt il as a convenient basis for comparison. As We learned from
 the rate curves. which were projected {. upon the screen earlier during the | hour, the male rabbit gains in one day i immediately after birth nearly eight cen per cent-seventeen and four
 tenths per cent--and the female rabbit gains nearly seventeen per cent Now {; we can estimate the loss very simply ! by deductinS this rate. which is the
 capacity os the animal to grow per
 sisting at birth. from it's original ca
 pacity. which we assume to have been
 1000 per cent per day. And If we do
 that. the result is obvious. over 9S
 per cent of the original growth power of the rabbit or of the chick has been
 lost at the time of birth or matching, respectively. and the same thing is equally true of man. SSVc start out at | birth certainl. with less than two per
 cent of the original growth power with which VIC were endowed. over 9S per cent of the loss is accomplished before
 birth-less than two per cent after birth.

A HUMAN CORK.

Bathing in Great Salt Lake IS an unique experience.
 Flights Of steps lead down into the water from the interminable platform along which the bath houses are sit- uated. The water is quite shallow at first and .-ou find a rare enjoyment for a time in wriggling your toes about in the salt that forms the bottom Tn place of accustomed sand. You are obliged to wade out some distance be- fore you experience the peculiar buoy ancy of the lake First. you feel your feet tr,-ing to swim out from under you. You find it more and more dif- ficult to walk. You begin to float in spite of yourself. Then you realize you are on-sinkable. You can't sink If you want to. Throw yourself on your back or sit down or tr:' to swim and you bob about like q rocking chair in a freshet. You feel as though you had been turned to cork. You can't help looking at the phenomenon sub- jectively. You don't see that there Is anything peculiar about the water. It looks and feels like any other bathing water-uhtil you get some of 1t in your eyes or in your mouth. Then you wish .-ou hadn't. Ocean water is sweet in comparison. In fact. the 'chemists tell Us it Is eight times less salt. e.3--
 You can't drown in the lake by sink ing. b-t -ou can be suffocated to death. which IS just about as uncOm- fortable and undesirable. We found signs everywhere warning us against hafnp tn frn1ieSnmt2 in the water.
 When we came out We brought with us large deposits of salt on our skin. As the water evaporated we found our selves covered with white crystals. Only a strong shower bath ot fresh water or 2 good clothes brush can put you into fit condition to dress The Travel Magazine.

Iron Springs, AriZ, Aug. 2S.-(Spe- cial Correspondence of The Republi- can.)-Perhaps it is not generally known to those of the transient guests who rent or lease cottages at this de- lightful summer resort, that the Iron Springs Outing club is an incorpo- rated body, bound together for the purpose of pleasure and enjoyment and as a sort of mutual protective asso- ciation The club was formed about six years ago with an idea to select ing a desirable locality where its members and their families could find a pleasant climate in which to spend their summers-Quiet and accessible. A whole section of land-commonly called school land-was leased from the general land office, with the priv ilege of erecting such structures or buildings as the club, or it's members saw fit. After its organization, lots or reservations, of suitable size, were leased to its members at a cost of S25.00. The dues of its members are sl0 per year, aside from the county tax of s2.00 per annum. There are many desirable lots yet remaining which can be secured for S2500 a piece. The rules of the club are most rigid, looking toward the exclusion of all persons not members. Admission to the grounds are obtained through special invitation from its members. who are also permitted to lease or rent their premises to friends or acquaint- ances. at stipulations fixed upon by the lessor.
 All persons of good sound health, upon invitation of the members of the club, who have secured rooms and board in private families. or at the hotel. can, upon the payment of the required fee, $500 for the season, or

For the last three years Mr.. Bent

valuable services, energetic work
and business enterprise on several
occasions his trip to Goldfeld being
one of them.
Before going into the insurance
