An Error

The following letter is self ex- planatory. We are always glad to correct an error.-Editor.
 Holbrook, Arizona, 4-19-19OS. Lloyd C. Henning, Esq,
 Winslow, Ariz.
 Dear Sir
 1 notice in Saturdays issue of the MAIL an item concerning the delegates to the Territorial Republican Convention. 1 wish to state that there were only four delegates selected for the territorial convention, as that was all Dur county was entitled to, our vote being 223 for Mir. Cooper while it required 225 to win another delegate Another item is that you state that the delegates were instructed tOvote for an instructed delegation for William H. Taft. You are in error on this point also, as no such instructions were given. 1t IS not my intention to get into print or newspaper controversy concerning political matters or any other subject, but the item as it appears is a mis-statement and should be corrected, as the item looks as If the information had been gwen to serve pur- pose. Very respectfully,

BASE BALL.

On last Monday Prof. C. H. Slifer and Miss Cora Buxton took thirty-fve of their pupils to Joseph City for a days outing. They went on No. s and were met by carriages on their arrival and escorted to the base ball diamond. Here they encountered a base. ball team from Snowflake Academy and after a lively con- test were declared second best. The Winslow team averaged fourteen years of age and the Snowflake team over sixteen. As a further handicap the dia- mond was ankle deep with loose sand. However defeat IS only deferred victory and the team is not discouraged in the least. After the game dinner was an nounced and all were invited to dinners in which the good people of oseph City excel. The after noon and evening were spent in games, races and wrestling until nine o'clock when all boarded freight and returned home. All agree that they had a most de- lightful time and praise the citi- zens of Joseph City for their kind hospitality.

How to Trim a Fern.

Boston ferns that have grown SC large and luxuriant as to permit di viding into smaller plants may have cuttings taken away from the roots without damage to the plant, if care fully done. If transplanted to the right soil and kept under proper con ditions the cutting should root wei. and develop into a healthy plant.
 A fern does not need hot and inces sant sunshine. Two of the finest Bos ton ferns known to the writer spent the entire winter in windows where scarcely sunbeam falls, though there is plenty of light. A little sun, how atmosphere is esential

Kodol For Dyspepsia has helped thousands of people who have had stomach trouble. This is what one man says of it: ''E. c. Dewitt & Co.,, Chicago, Ill., Gentlemen-In 1897 had a dis ease of the stomach and bowels. 1 could not digest anything 1 ate and in the spring of 1902 I bought a bottle of Kodol and the benefit 1 received from that bottle all the gold in Geor- gia could not buy. I still use a little occasionally as I find it fine blood purifier and a good tonic. May you live long and prosper. Yours very truly, c. N. Cornell, Roding, Ga, Aug. 27. 19O6.'

To have perfect health we must have perfect digestion, and it is very important not to permit of any delay the mo- ment the stomach feels out of order. Take something at once that you know will promptly and unfailingly assist digestion. There is nothing better than Kodol for dyspepsla, indigestion sour stomach, belching of gas and nervous headache. Kodol is a natural digestant, and will digest what you eat.
