While exploring the grounds about
the tomb of Washington, a gentleman
happened to see lady of mature years
who, bathed In tears. was kneeling be-

monument. Thinking she was in some
sort of distress the gentleman offered
assistance.

He Objected.


A certain learned professor in New
York has a wife and family, but, pro-
fessorlike, his thoughts are always
with his books.
One evening his wife, who had been
out for some hours, returned to find
the house remarkably quiet. She had
left the children playing about, but
now they were nowhere to be seen.
She demanded to be told what had
become of them, and the professor ex-
planned that as they had made good
deal of noise he had put them to bed
without waiting for her or calling a
maid.
Il hope they gave you no trouble"
she said.

exception Of the one in the cot here.

FROM THE PINE WOODS.
Hyomei's Aromatic Air Is Guaranteed to Cure Catarrh or Cost
 Nothing.

When using the Hyomei treatment. the air you breathe is like that on the mountains high above sea level where the pine woods fill the air with aro- matic healing that gives health and strength to those suffering from dis eases of the respiratory organs. Breathed through the neat pocket in haler that comes with every outfit. the healing balsams of Hyomei reach the most remote air cells of the throat. nose and lungs. destroying all catarrh- al germs and giving quick relief and cure
 Hyomei has performed almost mi raculous cures of catarrh, often re- storing health in chronic cases that had given up all hope of recovery. Its best action is at the start of the disease. when the breath is becoming offensive and when discharges from the nose, droppings in the throat and frequent sneezing or spasmodic cough ing begin to make life a burden. At the first symptom of catarrhal trOu- ble, use Hyomei and see how quickly you get relief and cure.
 The complete outfit costs but S1.O0 and is sold by the Larson Drug Co. under a guarantee to refund the mon- ey if 1t does not give satisfaction.

ELABORATE DINNER
 FOR NEW YEARS DAY
Hotel Adams Served About Two Hun dred Guests Last Evening.

About two hundred guests were en- tertained by an orchestra while they sumptuously dined last evening at dinner at the Hotel Adams. The New Years da. dinner was an elaborate affair in keeping with the reputation for splendid cuisine. tempting menus and stylish service, which the hotel has more firmly established under the excellent management of MT. Griffis.
 Noticeable in the crowded dining room, were the number of Phoenix people who greatly appreciate a fine service when it Is to be had. especial ly when right in the city. The dinner would have been a credit to any of the large and popular hostleries of the eastern cities which have made a fame throughout the country. A good up to-date hotel is one of the best adver- tisements which a city can possess.
 The menu card at the Hotel Adams last night was of red bristol board. with the name of the hotel embossed in white letters on the front. and a complete calendar for 1908 attached below. something artistic that. aside from the pleasant memories which 1t will recall, is also useful to keep. On the other cover was the dinner menu.

FARMERS OF GLENDALE
 10 GROW CANItLOUPES
A Meeting at the Board of Trade Next Saturday for the Purpose of organi- ration.

A meeting of farmers in and about trade rooms on Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock for the purpose Of forming a canteloupe growers association. This matter has been under consideration for some time and the promoters of it have been in conference with the rail- road people who have given the pro- ject much encouragement and have promised to afford the best shipping facilities possible It Is stated that be- tween 200 and 300 acres will be signed.
 The growing of cantaloupes for the market has never been carried on in that part of the valley on account of the lack of water but where eXperi- ments have been made in small way the results have been enormous. Next year there will be an ample water sup ply for all purposes.
 Alex Silva, one of the farmers in that locality said that last season he planted a small patch to cantaloupes and the yield was most surprising. He had seen cantaloupes grow before but not as they grew there. They kept on growing after the season was over and he was finally obliged to dig up the vines.
 Dr. Chandler who Is an authority in the matter of cantelOupe growing visited the neighborhood. and having made study of the soil said that there was no better place anywhere for the conduct of that industry than about Glendale.
