How to Care For one. HANDS.


The manner of washing and wiping
ones hands has much to do with their
general condition and even with the
shape OF the finger tips. These can. be
helped to taper IL each finger is wiped
separately By taking the towel between
thumb and forefnger Of the other hand
and pressing each finger at the side,
beginning ut the nail and rubbing
down TO the palm. This. after long
time. will affect their shape, says a
writer in the New York Post, The
common way of wiping by passing a
towel over the hands, rubbing f.om the
palms down to the finger tits, is a
mistake and will thicken tne flesh
about the nails. Well shaped nails are
essential, and unfortunately few per-
sons have them naturally. Many are
made worse, though, by the way they
are mistreated, and, like the fingers,
they may be improved In wiping.
Each should always be dried separate
" by pressing from the top OF the nail
down to the base, which keeps con.
stantiy pressing back the cuticie from
the moon. 1t takes only couple Of
more minutes to treat the fingers this
way each time they are wet, and It Is
more than worth while. Another aid
is to rub cold cream over the nails on
going to bed, aslng only Just enough to
I'LL In the space between cuticle and
base Of the nall. This will not rub OF
on the bedding and win prevent the
cuticle from hardening.

ADVICE ON SLEEPING.


How TO secure the Most Perfect
Reposr.
During childhood and exhaustive
states too much sleep Is rarely possible.
For those in fun tide OF vigor too much
sleep is often distinctly huttfui. says
Popular Science Monthly.
The action of narcotics presents none
Of the characteristics OF normal sleep
except the temporary arrest OF con.
scieasaess; hence narcosls Is not trne
sleep.
The best position to assume In sleep
to invite the least disturbance OF the
functions of the great organs Is on. the
abdomen or nearly So Many obscure
forms Of digestive or circulntory disor-
ders may have been initiated In In
fancy through lying too long upon the
back. & &. a. Z
To secure the most perfect repose the
temperature OF all parts should be
eaualized before retiring. Cold feet In
duce delay In securing sleep. and It Is
then shallow when attained. 1t Is most
unwise to overtill the stomach before
retiring. This disturbs sleep almost rs
much us hunger, but moderate eating
before sleeping Is not hurtful and L. Of
ten salutary. SO
Body clothing at night should be
loose, not dense, permitting the ready
passage OF air, neyerrof wool next to
the skin. Bed clothing should not be
too close of texture, blankets being
preferable TO dense ..comfortablesr and
not tucked In" too closely. Air should
be allowed to pass occasionally under
the sides at least as one turns about
more or less freely.
Early rising Is salutary custom, es-
necially when the day comes early, not
otherwise. More sleep is required in
winter than in summer. The best sleep
is had during the hours OF darkness.
The sleeping room should be cool,
abundant air being always admitted.
This should not be interpreted to mean
that the room may safely remain tn
tense,y cold.

C. & 4. MAKE ANOTHER
 MINING INVESTMENT
Take Over a Prominent Prop. erty in the Turquoise
 Mining District.

A big mining deal which is of much importance to the Tombstone district and particularly to Gleeson and the Dragoon range of mountains, was consummated last Friday when the c. and A. company of Bisbee secured bond on the property of the Lead vile Mining company in Turquoise mining district
 This deal has been pending for some time, but was formally closed this week through John Gleeson and Douglas Gray, who conducted the ne gotiations.
 The c. and A. company has al- ready taken charge of the Leadvilie property and some extensive deyel- opments are contemplated. Three new shafts are to be sunk, modern hoists and equipment installed and the ground thoroughly explored.
 Mir. John H. Talbot, an eminent mining engineer, will have charge of the company operations, and leaves the management of the Cananea Cen traI company to direct the work. Two carloads of lumber, the first of a series of shipments, arrived in Tomb stone to be taken to the mines, and preparations are made for transporta- tion of machinery and supplies from there to Gleeson, from which it will be observed that Tombstone will be
 The bonding figure of the property Is not officially stated, but it is under stood to be S300,000.
 The Leadville company is capital ized at s600,000, and the transfer is made on the basis of 50 cents per share The Ieadyille grOuD is re- garded as a valuable one and has been favorably reported upon by some of the most eminent mining engineers of the west. The ores of the group are sulphide, carrying heavy percentage of sulphur and iron and making an ideal self-fuying ore for smelting.
 The fact that c. and A. are operat- ing in the Dragons will direct atten- ton of mining men to the wonderful mining possibilities of that range and give an impetus to mining activity along he entire belt.

HIGH ASSESSMENT
 IN FINAL COUNTY
Consequently County Board of Equalization Will Try To
 Shave Off Big Sum,

TUCSON, AriZ., July 17.-Although the assessment rolls of Pinal county as returned by Sheriff J. R. McGee, who is also ex-officio assessor, are ap- proximately s2,500,0OO, which would place that county in the third class and almost in the second class, never theless it is very probable that the county board of equaliZers there will , lower a number of assessments so that Pinal county will remain in the fourth class.
 Sheriff McGee was in the city yes terday from Florence. He just re- gently completed his assessments.
 The equalizers are anxious to keep Pinal fin it's present class, which is of the fourth grade, owing to the fact that there will be an increased cost in running the county if it is ad- vanced in class.
 Sheriff McGee stated that Pinal county is looming up rapidly He add ed that there are between 600 and 700 men working in the Ray and Kelvin districts, which are the largest in the county.
 He also said that Mammoth and 1OudHh are OOutiuS bO Ilc lEOut anu that ten stamps are dropping at the mill at Mohawk.
 With one possible exception the Pi- nal county sher.ff is the champion shot of the territory His only rival is Pete Avente. a guard at the ter ritorial penitentiary. When Sheriff McGee recently took a bunch of pris- oners to Yuma he css'ienged Aven- ente to shooting match f'-t the lat ter, he states, declined to e7ter a contest.
 Before being elected sheriff of P' nal county McGee was a member of the Arizona rangers. He has been 8 resident of the territory for years. and three weeks after coming here he captured a noted train robber named Rogers at Adondo Wells, about thirty five miles from Yuma. Rogers was given a life sentence but was par doned last summer. He started for California and has not since been heard from and it is supposed he left the country for good.
