A QUEER CALCULATION.
The Power That Would Be Required
70 Move the Earth.


TO Move the Earth.
statistclans sometimes have queer
Ideas. One OF them amused himself
by calculating bow much energy, water
and coal Il would take to move the
earth a foot, supposlng that 1t was sub
Iected throughout It's mass to force
equivalent 70 terrestrial grSvitatlon
This is a gratultous suppositlon, for in
spite of Its enormous mass the earth
weighs nothing
Starting with the fact that the
earth's mass Is about 6,i00 million
nlllIon-milliop tons, our statisticlan
calculates that we should require TO-
100000, 0O1 years for a 10000 horse
power engine 10 move our globe a foot
The boiler that should feed this engine
would v6poIize q quantity Of water
that would cover the whole face Of the
globe with 8 LAYER 800 feet deep. The
vaporizatlon OF this water would re-
,quire 1000 Authorization tons OF coal
This coal, carried Ia cars holding ten
tons each ami having total length OF
dirty feet, would require 400 million
million cars, which would reach So
100000 times around the earth. This
train, moving at the rate Of forty
miles an hour, would take more than
8 100000 years TO travel It's own
length. It would require for storage a
shed that would cover 1000 times The
area Of Europe.
n we realize that this fantastlcallv
huge amount Of energy is nothing a.
all compared with what the earth pos
sesses In virtue of its rotation about It's
axis, It's revolution about the sun end
it's translation In space with the solar
system, Of which the earth Is but an
lnfnitesimal part Of the universe, we
may get some Idea OF the Importance
OF man In the universe and estimate
bis lncommensurable pride at its just
value.

We seldom hear nowadays Of fire

Of electric lighting on board ship has

 You should always remember that most cough and cold cures are consti- pating. Yet the most important thing to do when you have cold is to move the bowels. You cannot promptly cure cold until you do this. Kennedy s Laxative Cough Syrup stops the cough by allaying inflammation of the throat and lungs, and it drives the cold from the system by gently moving the bow els. Children like it for it tantes nearly as good as maple sugar. Sold by Pal ace Pharmacy and United Drug Co.
 The old fashioned way of dosing a weak stomach, or stimulating the Heart or Kidneys is all wrong. Dr. Shoop first pointed out this error. This is why his prescription--Dr Shoop's Re- storative--is directed entirely to the cause of these ailments--the weak in. side or controlling nerves. It isn't no difficult, says Dr. Shoop, to strengthen a weak Stomach, Heart or Kidneys, if one goes at it correctly. Each inside organ has its controlling or inside nerve When these nerves fail, then those organs must surely falter These vital truths are leading druggistn ev- anywhere to dispense and recommend Dr. Shoop's Restorative. Test it few days and see! Improvement will prompt ly and surely follow. Sold by Palace Pharmacy.

BROKERS WANT
 JUDICIAL RULING
UNCERTAIN RELATIONS EXISTING BETWEEN STOCK DEALERS AND THEIR CLIENTS WILL BE DE CIDED IN SUPREME COURT.

PHOENIX, December LA case, un- like in detail any ever before the su- preme court of this territory, was yes terday brought up on an appeal from the district court of Cochise county. It in- wolves $l,950 and desire on the part of the appellant, the Bank of Bisbee, to have judicial ruling on the precise relations which exist between brokers and their clients. The appellee is Frank J. Graf. broker of Bisbee In June of 1906 Graf was commis- stoned by the bank to sell thirty shares of Denn- Arizona stock at $3O share. The sale was not effected until Decem- Der i3 of that year, and on the follow ing day MT. Graf notified the bank of the confirmation of it. Nothing was done within the next few days, but about January If, 1907, lie made de- mand for the stock and was informed that it was unable to furnish it. Or, as Mr. Graf was informed by note from an officer of the bank, its client for whom the stock was to be sold was up in the air.
 | But the broker had sold the stock and the purchaser demanded it, He says that he was compelled to go into lthe market and buy thirty shares which at times was worth s95. After some further negotiations which resulted in nothing, he brought suit for $l,950, the difference between the prices of thirty shares of stock at $30 share and thir- ty shares at $95 share. His eommis- sions for buying and selling would have amounted to s7.50, so that the entire amount sued for was $l,957.50. The ap- police learned that the order for the sale of the stock had never been coun' termanded by the bank. He further said that the bank did not precisely deny the justice of his claim, but pre- ferred to have ruling by the court on it.
 The case was tried and judgment was given the plaintiff for the amount sued for. less the commission. Later the de. fendant moved for new trial and urged that since the trial it had come into possession of material evidence which would place the matter in an en' tirely different light. It had learned that the purchaser of the stock on De cember 13 was Charles A. Blair, who ai the same time had commissioned MT Graf to sell the stock and he had sold it at $3s share Therefore there was no time when the plaintiff would have been compelled to pay s95 share for stock to execute his contract with the purchaser.
 The affidavit of the defendant setting forth this new evidence was denied ir an affidavit by Mir. Blair, who said that he had authorized the broker tc buy forty shares of Denn. Arizona foi him and he had afterward authorized him to sell it. He did not know from whom the stock had been purchased oi to whom it had been sold.
 The motion for new trial was de nied and an appeal was taken.
