The PASSING OF Tilt

Old One Will Begin at Once.

The new steel bridge across the ella

today be put into use for the Regular

has been devoted to the final touches
on the approaches to the bridge. bal
lasting and getting everything in fine
shape. The tearing down of the old
bridge win begin today or tomorrow.
and will be effected as rapidly as pos
sible. the good material in the struc-
ture being made available for other
purposes.
Some one who has not seen the new
bridge may say the old one should be
kept in reserve. but nothing Of the
kind is contemplated. The new one is
guaranteed to do the business under
all circumstances. II Is heavy enough
and strong enough to hold up the pyra-
mids if old Atlas should come along
with them on his shoulder. Some who
have seen the new bridge, but whose
eyesight is not half as dependable as
the Instruments % an engineer, have
remarked that the new bridge is too
low and may be submerged in a flood.
The reply to this is that the grade line
Of the new bridge is from four to five
feet higher than the old grade line, and
the bridge is twelve feet higher than
the highest flood ever recorded at that
point. II il is ever submerged the rest
of the country will be so far under wa

Everything will be done for and the
next race will have to begin all over
again anyway.
But it must be admitted that in some
respects the new bridge IL a mere toy
compared with the old one. though it
cost a great deal more money. is a
great deal stronger and will last
great deal longer unless it is thrown
down by an earthquake Reference is
made here particularly to the length of
it. for in the new structure there are
only seventeen spans and they are
each only seventy feet long. or a total
of 1890 feet. The old bridge was $500
feet long. or very nearly three fourths
of mile. More than that. il was grow

year. owing TO the wonderful fertility
Of the climate and the peculiar wetness
of the weather along the ella, when IL

In the new structure care has been
taken against these climatic conditions
The new bridge was planted i'm the dark

taken that the river should be left a

MONUMENTS ERECTED

Fitting Memoria! in Honor of the Late

Notable Scouts and Indian Fighters.

The last legislature passed a bill in

one or two others. Sieber was for
many years a resident of Globe which
is also the home of Mr.. Hunt, and his
body is buried in the Globe cemetery.

The fact that there has been all

this social tempest of wider proper

that Mr.. Belmont is an active men,

green vegetables the path of the fat
man who wants to reduce is made
easier.
To fat ones the government says:
Eat little, sleep little and drink less"
To the thin man it says: Drink all
you can, eat all you can and sleep
as much as you can"
The thin man who wants to get fat
must eat and drink everything that he
can stomach. He must eat plenty of
potatoes, bananas and bread; most
important he must drink before and
after his meals
The experts say 1t is principally
what person drinks and not what he
eats that makes him fat. Fat Is
mostly water, it is asserted, and the
more water or other liquids a person
slows away the more likely he is to
gain weight.
Above all, thin person who wants
to spread out must sleep ten or eleven
hours a day. A nap after each meal
is offered as an excellent inducement
for fat to come and stay. On the
other hand, the man who is trying to
lose weight is advised that he keep
moving after a meal to thwart the
dread adipose.

dispatched with the cigars was called
up. He said that he took them to
the Office and handed them to a mes
senger who promised they should be
delivered without any delay. They
had not been, however, and it became
necessary to investigate the mystery.
An explanation came next day,
when the other friend with name
sounding like that of the sick man
called on the druggist and thanked
him for what he thought had been
a present to him. He wanted to find
where he could procure another box,
as he had used all of these. There
was peculiar flavor to the tobacco,
he said, that he liked very much. He
didn't know they were medicated
cigars until the druggist told him, and
the matter was set straight by the
other gentleman being promptly sup
piled with his catarrh remedy, and
then they all enjoyed the joke.

FAT AND SLIM FOLKS

WASHINGTON.-There are too
w many fat people and too many
thin people in the country, and the
government, through the agricultural
department, is conducting expert

average. G. F. Langworthy, chief Of

state, under the supervision of Prof.
c. ID. Woods, and at the University

These experiments were in full
swing before Secretary Taft entered
the cabinet, and therefore it cannot be
charged even in a presidential cam

get the government to work on the
scheme.

SAY NO LONGER THAT IT IS
THROUGH HIS STOMACH"


New York.-The way to mans
heart-through his stomach-that's a
dead letter now. The new love route
is through his fingers.
If you doubt the suggestion read the
facts.
All the pretty manicure girls seem
TO be winning husbands just now be-
cause they can polish and prink up
the finger nails of the rich young men
who wouldn't dare to be seen at any
i dance or dinner after candlelight with
sout having their fingernails immacu-
lately groomed.
The latest capture is William A.
Dunlap, son and heir of the million
,aire merchant-"Billy" Dunlap, as he
is known around where men-about-
-town-most do congregate, says the
World.
Just before Easter there was a ten
tative announcement of his engage
ment to Miss Lavender Byers, the
prettiest girl in fashionable mani
cure. establishment on Broadway,
which is conducted by Miss Mary Il.
Peart. And Miss Byers is not the first
who has been won from that resort
of the young men who feel that it is
absolutely essential to have their nails
carefully tended
Two other pretty young women
have already put aside the nail paste
and the polisher for the pleasanter
duties of running some rich young
mans home. Two others of Miss
Peart's staff have become the wives of
wealthy patrons.
Tried to Keep It Quiet.
OF course, inasmuch as Mr.. Dunlap
Hhas been divorced once and sued for
breach of promise by another young
woman, he made every effort to have
the engagement kept a strict secret.
But somebody told it to somebody
selse, and that somebody else told it
ito third person-and there you are!
Finally Mrs Byers had to tell it to a
few of her intimates, and then every
body knew. Mother and daughter
have gone to Chicago, where they have
met Mr.. Dunlap, just from Nevada,
where he has been making all kinds OF
money. The rest is easy to guess
They we're married in Milwaukee last
week.
