Coconino county certainly has great reason for feeling exceed ingly proud of her favorite son. Arizona has gone Republican be- fore, but never by so handsome a majority. His majority now stands at 1000, and still increasing. It means that over 5000 voters changed their minds and voted for Ralph Cameron - the only northern man who ever held of flee. Cameron was stranger in the south, or practically so, but he met them all, and they were his.

1t should be the aim of every
young person to find an entrance
into good society. By good We
do not mean fashionable society.
That often merits least of all this
honorable title. A good social
circle is one where sound princi.
pies, refined manners, and intell;.
gent ideas are the characteristics
of its members. Many a Young
man has gone to ruin by choosing
the society of the low and vulgar
instead of those whose influence
would be elevating. 1t is ALWAYS
so easy to fall into evil, but often
it requires hard work to gain a
sure footing in a refined circle
But the end is with the effect
If a young man desires to sharpen
his intellect, he will find that a
judicious mingling with society
will do this better than digging
forever over his books. There is
a wonderful amount of electricity
in the social atmosphere, and the
galvanic battery of the social cir
Gle will not fail to elicit many
brilliant sparkles. If one de-
sires to improve in manners he
can never do so except by ming.
ling with the refined and good.
Diffdence often keeps back those
who have in early life but few
social advantages. The only way
to overcome this painful difficulty
is to plunge in. 1t is one of the
most easily cured of all maladies.
A bath in the bracing ocean Of
social life will enable a person to
keep his footing bravely. Your
chances of success in life will be
ten fold greater if you have Sc
cured a wide circle of friends by
your obliging, gentlemanly man
ners. No one cares about trusting
or recommending a person OF
whom they know little or nothing
except that they exist in the same
community. You will often ad-
vance your interests more bv
spending social evening in re-
spectacle family, than You will by
sitting in your room and pouring
over your money matters, OF
writing a whole package of busl'
ness letters.

Everybody should live on the
sunny side of their houses as much
as possible; and allow the suns
genial rays to penetrate the rooms.
Darkened parlors are fashionable
evils. True, it is gloomy enough
to be ushered into tomb-like
apartment, where one can scarcely
grope his way to a seat, and to
discover, when his eyes become
accustomed to the dim light, that
every chair and sofa has on its
"duster," apparently equipped
for travelling to some unknown
land. But ladies' must have their
carpets kept bright and fresh, even
if their cheeks are the paler for it !!
And so the shutters are tightly
closed, and the heavy curtains
drawn. But for the sake of health
and beauty, ladies, let this be done
only in the "best parlor." if it
must be done at all. Let the
rooms where the family live be
cheerful and sunny. No lady
would expect her house plants to
send out full, brilliant blossoms
unless she placed them at window
where the sunshine would invigor-
ate them. No more should she
expect her children to show fresh,
rosy compilations, or to develop
genial dispositions, unless they
live in light, sunny, airy rooms.
