WHY MARRIAGE WAS FAILURE

This is why marriage was failure-
He did all the counting before marri-
age. He never talked his affairs over
with his wife. He thought of his wife
only as a cheap housekeeper. He
never dreamed that wife deserved
praise or compliments. He married
an ideal, and was disappointed to find
it had flaws. He paid no attention to
his personal appearance after marri-
age. He treated his wife as he would
not have dared to treat another wo-
man.

 deputy sheriff Jackson ofValencia county, New Mexico and request ed to be on the lookout for a i1alf.breed Cherokee Indain want ed in New Mexico for murder. By the description given, the man wanted was at once reco- .gnized by Mir Woods as having been in HOlbroOk but two days before. On learning that the fu- gitive had taken western course the sheriff took the first train for WinslOw. There he learned that his man had left for the west, and following the trail to Ash Fork, he learned that a man an Swering he description had been put off the train at Jerome June ton.

Enthusiastic Reception

Friday evening last Doctor B. l. Cady surprised his friends by getting off the eastbound train accompanied by his pretty bride, formally Miss Maud of Prescott Doctor said he came to spend his honeymoon in HOlbrook so as to be amongfriends. The night was one of those dream like peaceful evenings that are the glory of ArlzOna and make this country the pride and wonder of the world. The beauty of the sunset rays had died out in the west, the half moon was pouring its calm and soothing light over the shadOwed landscape, and Cady was explaining to his bride that he had taken rooms at the Bruns- wick hotel because "all was so quiet there," when-the boom of guns the explosion of g1ant crackers, the yell of demons, the rattle of dozens of tin cans, the raising of windows, the cry ot fire, treason, and blood, all mixed with a confusion of tongues, told of the doomed city. Julius came running down the stairs dressed only i'll a linen collar and a frightened look, and asked "Whv in h-l they didn't put lightning rods on that house." Van, who had been through Kansas eye lone and the earthquake at San Francisco, recognized at once that 1t was the end Ot the world, said, "Now lay me down." and folded his hands Ill death. Doctor Cady grasped the situation at once, and rushing to the door, he raised his hands to heaven and said, Boys what will you have?" The effect was magical. The noise instantly stopped and quiet came again. About two hours later the only thing that could be heard was a song dying in the distance,

While it is always one of the busiest

pruning in the orchard is during April.
May and June. as during these months
scars that are made most quickly heal
over. thereby lessening the possibility
that the process of decay will set in at
the point of cutting and thus weaken
the tree. If the limb cut off is more
than an inch In diameter it is well to
paint the cut with white lead and oil
All limbs removed should be cut as
close as possible TO the trunk or main

We all know people whose partlcu-
lar occupation seems to be to squeeze
the sour out of everything. They
never see anything sweet. Everything
is bitter to them.
They cannot enjoy friend because
of his faults. His mistakes and weak
nesses loom up so large that they
cannot appreciate the good in him.
They cannot see the man God intend.
cd, perfect and immortal they see
only the deformed, diseased. crippled,
handicapped man who. in their opin-
ion. will never come to any good
Nor do they see the world that God
made. The beauty that looks out OF
the landscape, from the trees that
rustic in the wind. that is wrapped in
the flower. Is lost to them, They
only see the floods. the fire, the
earthquakes, the lightnings. the
wrecks which destroy. They are
blind to beauty. 1t is all covered up
