Dofflng. Bills were allowed to the
amount of $2S5.66, the largest being
$lS7.56 for crossings at the Green
Bay lumber yards, three in number

sig.ned by 81 of the business men
and women of the town asking for
crossing between the Doffing
drug store and the Fullerton Lum-
Der yard was presented, read, con-
sidered and no action was taken on
account of fears of freezing weather

Sl.5O per year for each additional
head payable quarterly in advance.

In mountain climbing the world

a writer in Outing, it is the opposite
There are rs miles of rugged foothills
and glaciers to be crossed-with
heavy packs-before the base of the
mountain is reached, and then the
climber is confronted by $4,000 feet of

In Praise of Quakers

l like the Quaker speech; the gentle intimacy of their "little language" {" with its quaint "thees" and "thous, ' and the curious turn they give to their verbs, disregarding the formalities of grammar. "Will thee go, 'has thee seen, ' "does thee like that is the way they speak it; an unjustifable way, l know, but it sounds pleasantly. l like the Quaker spirit and manners, at least as l have found them, in my friends; sober but not sad, plain but very considerate, genuinely simple in the very texture of their thoughts and feelings and not averse to that quiet mirth which leaves no bitter taste be- hind it. One thing that I cannot under stand in Charles Lamb is his confession. in the essay on Imperfect Sympa- thies, :" that he had prejudice against Quakers. But then I remember that one of his best bits of prose is called CA Quaker's Meeting" and one of his best poems is about the Quaker maiden, Hester Savory, and one of his best lovers and companions was the broad brim Bernard Barton.-Scribner s Mag azine.

 The deceased, Brannock Riggs, was one of the best known pioneers in Ari- zona, having resided in Cochise county for nearly thirty years, and the many good traits of heart, virtues of rugged worth and characteristic honesty are recalled by all who knew him.
