CHILDREN. AND THE CIRCUS


 Whatever the rest of the world may do the hard shell of bigotry and pre- judice has been broken and in Phoe- nix at least, the circus has finally come into its own. It has been rec ognized by the public school admins tration and the souls of Barnum and Bailey will rejoice in the glad smile that will illumine the faces of the small boy next Monday Superintend- ent Stilwell announced last night that there will be no school Monday after noon and that the parade is to go by the Central school so those in attend ance there may see it. For the child dren who attend the ward schools it is arranged that they may be excused to see the show if their parents or guardians will call for them at their respective schools at 10 o'clock Other wise they will be restrained from run ming at large for fear they will fright en the elephants and start a general stampede, or get stepped on them selves.

Beauty and
 Bad Breath
Cannot Go Together No Matter How Woman May Try to Make Them,

Cannot Go Together No Matter How
 Woman May Try to Make Them.
 It does not matter how beautiful with bad breath she will be summed and pitied by men and even women will studiOusly avoid her.
 If any woman doubts this state ment let her make a point of asking friend in whom she may confide, a man friend or relative. If he be honest he will tell her that foul breath from the mouth of a woman will drive men from her more rapidly than any. other personal affliction.
 Foul breath arouses in man disgust and where this quality is brought into play no amount of self-denial or reasoning can overcome the nat ural repugnance which comes to man when he is in company with such a woman.
 What is true of bad breath in wo- man is not true in so great a degree in men. Women are looked upon as the incarnation of sweetness, breed ing, virtue and refinement. Foul breath will sicken a man so that he can not feel for such a woman a companionship necessary to make him desire to be in her company.
 There is absolutely no occasion for bad breath in either men or women. Charcoal, the strongest absorbent known, when taken into the stomach will prevent this repugnant tendency or affliction.
 Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are sold in tremendous quantities all over America and Canada. They cure and have cured all forms of bad breath A single box will convince you of this fact. One should eat some of these loZenges after each meal and upon retiring. You might eat fifty of them without harm They are not medicine, but pure willow char coal mixed with sweet honey to make them palatable and compressed into a lozenge to preserve their peculiar and lasting strength.
 The next time you wish to go into company and don't want your foul breath to humiliate you, eat several of Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges and your breath will be pure and sweet
 Every druggist carries them, price 25 cents, or send us your name and address and we will send you a trial package by mail free. Address F. A. Stuart Co., 200 Stuart Bldg, Mar shall, Mich.

STATEHOOD FIRST.

Graham county. during the latter half of the nineteenth century and the opening years cf the twentieth, was believed to be impregnable against the political enemies of Mark Smith. Nowhere else in the territory did he have such a solid and un- wavering following. Graham county wanted statehood and it believed with many other sections of the territory that Mr. Smith was the medium through which it was to be procured.
 Graham county. like the rest of us, still wants statehood, but Graham county sees clearly now, as every body else sees, that however earnest Mir Smith may be, he is powerless to contribute to the admission of Arizona; that as things now stand through no fault of his own, he is necessarily a stumbling block in the way to statehood.
 The magnificent reception which has been accorded Mir. Cameron at Clifton and the adjoining towns is an expression of the changing sen timent there as well as everywhere else. It is not a sign that Mir. Smith has lost any of his great personal popularity; that he has fewer friends than formerly, but that the people are in no mood in this critical period to bestow upon Mir. Smith another and esteem.
 It is not meant that a time has come when friendship ceases" but that the voters are not going to be foolish about it this year.

Guvner Haskell of Oklyhomy sez: | T never been Dispointed so much in | my Life as I am at tn way this here Nashnle Struggle is fbein' Conducted | Rite away after tn two Convenshuns was held we got a Proppysishun fun l tn Nashnle Republican Committee which sez, 'They's been too much Vii lence an Persnle nl-Feelin' in Cam panes in tn Past.

 T mite a Rhode, if I'd thought of it, what was Lible to Happen in a Ladylike Campane. I seen them things before in Bargin Counter rush es an Riots at Weddins of Amerry- can Addresses to tn Sions of Euro peen Nobility, when they had to De- tale Extry Polees to keep tn Ladies offn tn Bride an tn Roll Groom.
 Then there was that Basket Ball Game which was looked onto as a Effiminit Passtime when men play ed it but when tn Ladies got In trusted into it it become a Mejium fer Bloodshed an Slotter till many of tn Hier InstitoOshuns of Lernin' had to Suppress it. Where it is played yit they's some kind of a Restrickshuns throde about it, some thing like tn London Prize Ring Rools only they ain't quite so Strick. Tn Ladies are aloud to hit Below tn Belt, Chaw each other an Pull Hair, but I bleeve tn use of Spiked Clubs has been Forbid in some Places.
 T see now what tn Republican Nashnle Committee meant when it sez, Les have a nice Ladylike Cam pane It was a Challenge fer a Dool to tn Deth.
 We hadn't hardly got started be- fore that Lady fun Sinsinnati sez at tn Feminin' Parrygon rum Linkun, New Brasky, was a Fickel Deseever an tn Lady fun Linkun sez at tn Sinsinnati Lady was a Imposter an then a Virago at Oyster Bay calls her a Tyre. ..--
 T begun to think at tn Campane was a Gittin too Ladylike to Soot me an was wonderin' how I was goin' to git out of it with Onner when that Flip young thing fun Noo York slipped up Behint me an Dob bed me all up with Petroilyum an at tn same time she Dashes a lot of it over a Innercent Bistander. Senter Foraker. an that Oyster Bay Terma- gent comes along an rubs it into both of us, till it looks like I wont get tn Smell off fer a Hundered Yeers.

''START NE"

''Start mel" cries little Alice from
her perch in the swing. II want to

"Somebody can't be starting you all
the time" answers Tommy, half i'm.
patient of her demands upon him half
DESTROYS of giving her bit of instruc.
tion. Put your foot on the ground
and start yourself"
1t is the same story, the same cry
the world over. People are longing
to mount high along many lines, but
for the most part they are sitting still
and waiting for someone to start
them. They want to reach success in
literature, in business or professional
life, but they want to swing high
from the first-to be pushed by some.

Those who are really willing to begin
with their feet on the ground and start

One who has been brought much in
contact with young people, young
women especially, and has been, en-
deavoring to help them, recently said
that her greatest encouragement lay
in the fact that they all want to
begin on the top. They wanted at
once the reputation, the pay and the
patronage, of those who had been
long years in the work. They wanted
to be pushed-a good strong push

MANS TRUEST ANIMAL FRIEND.
Wonderful Love and Loyalty Of Dog
to Its Master.

There was a time when the dog had
no human friend, perhaps, but very
early in the life of the world he and
man came together, and the dog has
stuck ever since, says writer In the
New Haven Register. Man has abused
and neglected the dog. He has al
lowed him to accumulate faster than
hence the dog has deteriorated. The
friendless dog is the neglected dog.
and the neglected dog becomes. mot
from his own fault but from the fault
Of man, the dangerous dog. Hence
the laws to regulate dogs, which are as
much in the interest Of the dog as In
the interest of humans.
To the ideal of zone flag, one coun-
try, one WHEAT a time," might be
added lone dog at time" One dog
is enough for any man. 1t is sufficient
for ideal companionship. There is
something inspiringly pathetic In the
comradeship that sometimes springs
up between the right sort of q man
and the right sort of dog. There is
fidelity that might shame many a
man in the love and loyalty of a dog to
his master. History and literature
are starred with its brightness and
beauty. Pity the man who can't appre.
ciate dog, even If he doesn't happen
to own one. Surely his soul lacks
something more essential than adora
ton Of music-he's 1T for worse than
treason, stratagems and spoils.
