WAS IT LUCK OF WAS TT PLUCK? "Our remedies oft in ourselves do lie, Which we ascribed to heaven; the lated
 sky
 Gives us free scope, only doth backward Our SOW designs when we ourselves are
 dull.
 Bill said that, in "All's Well That Ends Well.'' The more one reflects over some saying of Bills the more one wonders If, after all, his head didn t hold all the wisdom of the world.
 A young man scarcely over thirty went to the Iowa legislature this year from town in an old Dutch settle ment in the northern part of that state.
 Five years ago that young man was laborer on his fathers farm. Today he is successful practicing lawyer, with one of the biggest practices in that section. His father. was an immigrant to this country from Holland, and until five years ago this boy titled the acres on his fathers farm.
 But he conserved his time and i'm proved his mind under the lamp light in the old farm kitchen. He studied law through correspondence course. During the summers he couldn't study much and do, justice to his job.
 But in the course of three or four years he had managed the intricacies of the laws of contracts, and torts, and personal relations and all the other branches. He passed, with his self education, one of the best law exam nations ever turned into an Iowa ex- aminer. He moved to town and went into an abstract office, and hung out sign saying that here was "G. Klay, " lawyer. He joined the town chess club, incidentally, and played tennis.
 Other lawyers used to laugh at some of his pleas, and the chess experts to consider him rather small game, while any college youth home for vacation for the summer could wipe the courts with him at tennis. But he kept on plugging.
 Now the lawyers don't laugh at hin when they're conducting case against him, nor the politicians when he is run ming for office, nor yet the chess and tennis players, when he is on the other side of the board O. the net. He's come into his own.
 He has introduced into the legisla- ture dozen measures which have passed, and carried one bill by the force of his argument against hostile force, and already he is being men toned for congressional nomination two or four years hence.

PLENTY OF WATER FOR SEWERS


 A goodly number of apologists-- that's nice, genteel word--inform the Silver Belt that they opposed the sewer bonds for the reason they did not be- heve the present water supply sufficient to supply the demand and in addition flush the sewers. It is to be hoped these people were acting in good faith. But it is quite evident they overlooked the fact that about ninety days ago MT Amster, the chief holder of Pinal Noun tain Water stock proposed to the city to expend something like $100,00 for construction of sewerage system. MT. Amster is in position to know the ca. pscity of the water company s wells. Do you suppose, dear MT. Apologist, that MT. Amster would embarrass his water plant by putting in sewerage system if he did not have sufficient water to supply the demands of both plants? Mir. Amster has earned the reputation of being very shrewd business man. Whom he made the city a proposition to build sewers he knew that the watsr company had enough water to supply a city of S0,ooO people. In fact he said so. The sewer question is not dead one by any means, and will come up for consideration at very early date. Globe has started on the forward march, and the obstructionists will be ruthless ly swept aside in the future.

WOMAN'S CLUB AND
 THE BEEF CREATURE
There Is More to the Latter Than the Former Had Supposed Until Yesterday.

The meeting of the Woman's club yesterday afternoon was presided over by Mrs. W W McNeff, chairman of the department of household eco monies. which department arranged the program for the special features of the day. There were two beau tiful solos by Miss Loise Murphy, accompanied by Madame Pinney.
 The special features were the illus trated addresses of E. Hackett, one of the proprietors of a well known local market, and MT. Geenen, the chef of the Hotel Adams. As might be guessed the subject under consid eration was The Beef Creature" in cluding all the peculiar post mortem characteristics Of the aforesaid crea- tur that have a bearing on house. hold economy or the gastronomic in dulgences of that major portion of civilized man not classified among the vegetarians. The lectures were Illustrated by numerous anatomical exhibits from the beef creature, rang ing from soup bones to porterhouse, including all meat delicacies that grace the American family boards. either those of humble estate or per sons of high degree.
 With a chart of beef MT. Hackett described the different cuts of meat and also the meatshop nomenclature of the west in it's differences from eastern local names. it being shown that many housekeepers raised in the east scarcely know how to order meat in the west, owing to the different names given to the same cut. He also told how a good piece of meat might easily be spoiled by a bad job of cooking. MT. Geenen followed with a very entertaining talk on the art of cooking. He told of many methods of cooking and gave manX- recipes for preparing and serving meats in a way that any particular cut might be made the most of, or might be served in the best possible way. He showed that a poor piece of meat properly cooked and served, might be more palatable than a good piece improperly cooked and served.

REPORTED FINISHING

NJ. B. Habeltine of the Bank of Arizona, which is now the controlling factor in the future of the Noble block and practically its owner is in the city and it is sur missed that his visit has something to do with the matter in question.
 It is sincerely hoped the building may be completed as soon as work men can do it for a great many req sons. In it's present unfinished state it is a source of constant inquiry on the part of strangers and Phoenix people have grown tired of reciting the story of the building. On the other hand there is nothing that would add so much to the appearance of the business district as the fin ishing of the building, the displacing of the board windows by glass and the active occupation of the now si- lent apartments by lively business firms.

"I suffered from eczema on my hands, arms and feet for about twelve years, my hands and feet would swell, sweat and itch, then would become callous and get very dry, then peel of and get raw. l tried most every kind of salve and ointment without success, only got temporary relief. As soon as 1 would leave of using them l would be us bad as ever. l tried several doctors, took arsenic for two years and at last gave up thinking there was a cure for eczema. A friend of mine insisted on my trying the Cuticura Remedies but, supapsiag they were the same as ether cures had tried 1 did not give them a trial until I got so bad that l had to do something. l secured a cake of Gu ticura Soap, a box of Cuticura Oint- ment and bottle of Cuticura Resolvent and by the time they were used l could see a vast improvement and my hands and feet were healed up in no time. l used several bottles of Cuticura Re solvent. This was over a year ago and have had no trouble since. 1 think l am entirely cured. Charles T. Bauer, RED. Co, Volant, Pa, Mar. II, I9OS."

vedette had no advantage of him In
that respect.

REALLY BOYS IN BLUE.
Greater Part of Union Army Under
Twenty one.

Greater Part of Union Army Under
Twenty one.
The records show that out of the en-
tire number of enlistments during the
war on the Federal side 1911 ,526 were
between the ages of eighteen scd
twenty-one years.
There have been frequent claims made
by men in different sections OF the
country, each that he was the young
est soldier serving on the Union side in
the war Of the rebellion, and In view
Of these many and varied assertions 1t
may be of interest to know what the
record of ages of enlistments was dur
ing the war.
Here is list of figures which is ex-
tremely interesting and. what is more,
it was obtained at the war department.
1t gives all the ages of the different
men in classes who enlisted from 1861
to 1861
The number Of enlistments at ten
years and under was %, eleven years
and under SO. twelve years and under
225, thirteen years and under 300, four
teen years and under 1925, fifteen
years and under 104 ,987, sixteen years
and under 1,051, seventeen years
and under S44, ,S91, eighteen years and
under l, ,151 .439, twenty-one years and
under 2.159, 79S twenty-five years and
older 61S,511, twenty-five years and
older 46626 and forty-four years and
over 1901.
If the enlistments under the ages OF
eighteen to twenty-one are examined
it will be found that the backbone Of
the army lay there. Of course In the
younger ages. up to, say, sixteen, the
enlistments quoted were Of drummer
boys and for other duties youngsters
Of this age could be put to.

GREW THIN ON RICE RATION.
Sherman's Yankees Found 1t Laborious
to Hull the Cereal.

Shermans Yankees Found 1t Laborious
to Hull the Cereal.
A local veteran who accompanied
Sherman on his famous march to the
sea relates the following concerning
the brief starvation spell" which the
men OF his army experienced on reach
ing Savannah and before communicate
ing, with the fleet: sherman, you un-
derstand, made this march without
any provisions, depending on the coun-
try through which he passed for sub
sistence. He was not hampered by
provision trains, and therefore the
march was and had to be rapid We
foraged for a distance Of twenty-f five
miles on each side Of the main col
umn, stripping the region through
which we passed of provisions, SO that
had we remained two days in one
place we would have been obliged to
go without food.
Lying off the coast of Georgia was
a large fleet Of ships loaded with pro-
visions for us when we reached the
sea, but at the same time those in
command were worried, for they did
not know what might happen to pre-
vent our getting into communication
with the fleet, and should this happen
we would simply have to starve. More
over, the feet did not know just what
part Of the coast we would strike.
Well, finally we reached Savannah,
and then our troubles began. The city
was in possession of the Confederates
under General Hardee, but was SO sur
rounded by swamps that we could not
form line Of battle to attack 1t. So
we halted just out Of Savannah,
pitched camp and waited.
Developments consisted In getting
into communication with the feet. A
detachment was sent down to the coast
for that purpose, and they had no diff
ficulty IN finding the feet, but even
then we were no better off than be-
fore, for the reason that Fort Meal
lister, guarding the mouth Of Broad
river, prevented the feet from coming
up that stream and effecting a landing.
This, however, Gid not last long. Cen
eral Hazen stormed and took this fort
from the land side, and then our
troubles were over, the ships Of the
feet having everything that was need
cd in the way Of provisions. But this,
you must remember, required nearly
two weeks, and to keep soul and body
together we had to subsist on the un-
hulled or unthrashed rice that we
managed to gather from the fields
around the city. Those who have
never tried to hull rice cannot imagine
what a tedious, laborious and trouble
some job it is. It Is done with a NOR
tar and pestle arrangement, and for
the mortar we used to hollow out
places in logs, using a club Of gum
wood for pestle. Thus equipped, we
were able to hull about enough rice
for one meal after some two or three
hours work. Some say rice is nutri-
tious, and doubtless 1t is good food
for Cinnamon and Japs, but l can
speak by the card and from experience
when l tell you that it is the poorest
white mans grub on earth.
Every one Of US became as thin
and pale as ghost on it, and If we
had not received rations when we did
l fee pretty certain that many Of us
would have taken sick. k."-Philadelphia
