Take a Bath Once a Year.

Take a Bath Once a Year.
Bath, one of the greatest blessings
on earth. We know what we are talk
ing about because we took one once
and we are feeling good over it yet.
If we can arrange to get another when
we are sixty we believe we can die
happy, eve though we may live to be
a hundred. The bath is one of the
most powerful factors in the modern
business world. All the great deals
are consumated after the bath. 1t is
the bath that gives men the courage
to tackle what appeared to be, before
the rundown, impossible. The bath
sets you up in business and makes
you feel like a two-year old. 1t puts
life IN your carcass, fills you full of
snap amp ginger, makes your blood
Jingle, heightens your ambitions, and,
best of all, increases your ~self-respect,
Who can realize himself without the
moral support of soap and wateri
Therefore, if you are up agaidst it,
take a bath. If you are not satisfied.
take a bath. If you are in trouble,
take a bath. If you are out of sorts,
take a bath. Take a bath once a year
anyway, whether you need it or not.

The Solomonville Bulletin of last
week criticises Justice Austin quite
severely for his decision in the first
case which came before him. 1t
seems that a drunken Mexican asked
two Americans for a ride in their
wagon, which they gave him for some
distance. The Mexican afterwards
claimed that they robbed him of S127
and then threw him out of the
wagon. The two Americans swore
that the man was drunk and became
a nuisance, and they put him out of
the wagon and went on about their
business. The man was probably
robbed by some one, but as he was
drunk at the time, it does not seem
that his testimony should have been
considered as of more weight than
that of two respectable citizens, who
were duly sober. The county will be
put to lot of expense in the case.
Some justices are too prone to run
expenses upon the county, and it
seems that the one at Solomonville is
of that class.

p From later reports it seems that
Arizona is the only state or territory
in the Union showing any material
increase in the output of copper
during the past year. Instead of an
increase of 100000 pounds as
stated in the ERA last week, Mon
tana really shows a decrease of D.
900, 900. The total increase of pro-
duction as is now apparent, was only
81 per cent, while the increase of
consumption is placed at Il over 1905.
The value of the output for 1905 is
given at 5G,0O0,OOO, while that of
1906 was 1854, 200, 900, the increase be-
ing principally caused by the higher
price for the metal. The market
seems practically bare OF spot cop
per, which is now selling at above 25
cents per pound. Holland, Germany
and France have all been caught
short. They were waiting for a de.
cline in the price, and are now up
against famine.

Owing to the high water prevailing
in the Frisco river, which interferes
with the improyised pumping plant
of the Arizona Copper company, it
was found necessary to close down
the smelters Tuesday night. Since
the washing away. of the company's
dam across the Frisco December 3,
the company has been hard pressed
for a water supply. A temporary
pumping plant was placed on the
bank of the river near the works,
which furnished water sufficient for
two furnaces, but it cannot be
operated during high water hence
the present temporary shut down.
