Razor Edges.

The thickness of the edge of a razor
has been estimated at about one mil
lionth Of an inch. A powerful micro
scope shows the edge bent on one side,
the effect Of the last stroke on the
strop. If the razor is used in such a
way that the bend is toward the skin
the edge will have a tendency to cut
the skin and If used the other way it
will glide smoothly over the skin. but
will pull the hairs upward while cut

razor should therefore be az light as

The Return of Party From a Sue cessfu Trip in Mexico.

Kelvin, Feb. S.-(Special Correspon- -dence of The Republican.)-At Charles McGee's popular hotel in Kelvin oc- cured one Of the liveliest and most enjoyable entertainments ever held at that place. The McNeely. Brown. Beebe and Philips families united their efforts to entertain their friends and gave a social party and dance that to say the least was a great sue cess. Card playing. vocal music, phon- ograph selections, dancing, luncheon and Q hearty all around good time was enjoyed by all. The angel cakes. devil cakes, and fruit cakes baked by Mrs. Beebe and Mrs. Philips were simply great and the volunteer walters should receive praise for their creditable style of serving.
 The Cowbell club from Ray came down en masse and when they struck the town things began to pick up. Something was doing. if only for a mo- ment At the dance they set a lively pace and did stunts in the Virginia Reel that would do credit to high class vaudeville. Many Kelvin people woke up, took notice and did likewise, some that hadn't limbered a joint in years turned loose and showed their heels like three year olds. Talk about your movers, all kinds of gaits and some that never were gaited at all, yet so far as can learned no serious injuries were sustained. The Cowbell club of Ray has a disturbance known as yell that was given several times. The yell was as follows:
 Ray, Ray. Ray,
 Eat, Eat, Eat,
 Ray, Ray, Ray,
 Can't Be Beat.
 Each time the Rays yelled the Kel- vanites would reciprocate in a volume, their tin can yell as follows
 Boom a lacka,

EDITION FOR
 HOMfSEfkfRS
Special Issue of The Re.
 publican Early In March
Cooperation Desired In Exploiting Advantages for New Settlers.

The Republican believes that tho psychological moment has arrived fol letting the country know of the many advantages the Salt River valley offers to the homeseeker, artisan and capital ist. This is the only excuse offered and The Republican believes it suf- ficient one, for issuing the Great Homeseekers Edition which will appear early in March. The subject matter of the paper will be carefully prepared to the end that all of the advantages of this agricultural, horticul- tural, industrial, and social may be known of all men who will take the trouble to read. The best evidence of a countS's worth comes from the peo- pie who are living in it, therefore ex- pressions are desired from ranchers in the valley, as to their experience in the country along the following lines: - How does the land produce in com parison with the land of the middle western states?
 Why is the valley attractive to set tiers with small means?
 What can be done on a I0-acre tract?
 What should a prospective settler have. on coming here?
 What have you done with oranges
 What can be done?
 The Republican would like to have letters from farmers that will enlight- en readers elsewhere on these subjects. Contributors are asked to express themselves on these subjects freely and The Republican will print the letters in the Homeseekers Edition The writer should tell his story in his own words and address his letter to the Editor Homeseekers Edition, Republican Of- flee, Phoenix
 The industries of the valley will be written up and copies of the paper will be sold to parties wishing to join in giving the valley one good boost.
 This is purely and simply a move ment on the part of The Republican, and representatives will call on the people and explain the edition fully. There is one way in which nearly every one can help the enterprise along and that is by buying papers. The more papers sold the larger the edition will be. If the reader believes in the valley and its future possibilities. he cannot help more with small amount of money than by giving an order for copies of this great edition of The Republican. Let the people of the val ley get together and tell their story to the thousands who are looking for a place to live and work in a land of perpetual sunshine. Every rancher. every business man, every professional man. in short every citizen, should be interested in this matter and should be willing to contribute to it with his pen and his purse.

Living Near to Nature, His Digestion
 lc Perfect.
 Dr Livingstone. and later Henry Stanley, both of whom spent much time in the exploration of Africa. in their memoirs mention the fact that members Of all the tribes that they came in contact with possessed beau tiful, white pearly. sound teeth. and that on investigation they found hat this was due to the fact that the di- gestiee organs of the negro had never been impaired, and that they were able at all times to take care of the coarse foods that were taken into the stomach.
 The negroes food is of the plainest kind and is seldom if ever cooked. It is eaten as it is found. with but little preparation.
 The cause of unsound and imper- feet teeth found among civilized )sI- pie is due to two important facts-t1e prevalence of dyspepsia, indigestion and stomach troubles, and the food We eat
 In the foods that we eat there is lack of phOsphates and other material"
  the waste in the teeth.
 Then again few people in civilized countries are free from dyspepsia, which interferes with the whole sys tenn and causes trouble everywhere.
 To have sound teeth, cure your dys- pepsia and eat proper foods. and you will have little trouble with them.
 A package of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets should be kept up in the house at all times. They cure dyspepsia, sour stomach. indigestion and put the stomach and intestines in a bealthy condition.
 The tablets contain a powerful in gredient which assists the stomach in the process of digestion, and puts it in a healthy condition.
 There are many bodily ills due en- tirely to stomach troubles.
 If you are ill ask yourself if your trouble may not be caused by indi- gestion
 This may be the cause of the whole difficulty. and to cure it means to have perfect health.
 You can get Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets at any druggists, for they are as staple as any drug in the store. They are 50 cents per package.
