good health, with its blessings, must un- derstand, quite clearly, that it involves the question of right living with all the term implies. With proper knowledge of what is best, each hour of recreation, of enjoy ment, of contemplation and of effort may be made to contribute to living alright. Then the use of medicines may be dis pensed with to advantage, but under or dinary conditions in many instances a simple, wholesome remedy may be invalu- able if taken at the proper time and the California Fig Syrup Co. holds that it is alike important to present the subject truthfully and to supply the one perfect laxative to those desiring it.

chosen to succeed Stilwell and the pe- tition was not presented.
 Mr. SuIwen said yesterday that he regarded very highly the confidence shown him by a large majority of the patrons and is sorry now that he re- signed. His resignation hinged chief ly on d disagreement between the board and the superintendent as to the-elections of teachers, Mir StilweIl preferring to leave the schools if he could not select the teachers.
 Mr Stilwcll was brought to Phoenix four years ago to install manual train ing and domestic science and further build up and organize the schools on a sound working basis. The success in all those lines is highly complimentary of his ability as an educator.
 When the fifth election for su perintendent came up last spring the people gave MT Stilwell such an as surance of this confidence the board of education raised his salary $500, making just double the amount he re- ceived the first year he was here.

IA PHOENIX WRITER
 IN GREAT SOUTHWEST
Charles R. Bernetzke an Arizona Writer.

The Great Southwest for June has an interesting article by Charles Der ne:zi5e Of Phoenix on Southwest of Today the Land of Opportunities 2 The article is illustrated with views of section of the Elliott Evans ranch and of the Lowe ranch, besides a pie ture of the author. The story itself is a nasty review of old conditions in this part of the country and a de- scription of the changing conditions of today.
 Says the writer: "A new epoch has set in in the southwest. It is noted by all the old residents. The cactus is being crowded back before the beau tiful green fields of alfalfa, while vine yards and orchards smile in sunshine on every hand, where but yesterday stretched the desert wastes. The pis- tOl toter, the gambler, the bull and cock fight and the bumptuous cow boys shooting up the town are things of the past on this side of the border. crowded out by home making business men and farmers.
 How beautiful is my land With valleys fertile, where bright
 waters flow.
 The sunny fields, whose emerald
 grasses pave
 The toiIer's way to fortunes tidal
 wave
 How radiant is my land.
 Southern Arizona is pre- -eminently landscape country. It is a country of beautiful vistas which lend them selves to the rhapsodies of the poet or the touch of the pencil Everywhere the painter or the poet may find on lifting his eyes scenes of such Ioveli- ness that he is perorfce compelled to give expression to his thought or his vision. On one hand stretch the it. limitable blue fields of the valley; on the other rise tier on tier the empur- pied peaks of the Superstition moun- tains.'
 In conclusion MT. Bernetzky writes: Mine be the cline of the southwest
 ern land,
 My breath of the blue crystal night. Where youth and joy and love come
 back
 Like the taste of rare old wine"

was few years ago president of the Baltimore &
Ohio and. following his resignation from that Of
fee had an important place in the management OF
the Kansas City Southern, Of which he is still
director and Wall Street inclined In view
of Mr. Harriman's prominence in the Baltimore d
Ohio and the Delaware Hudson, to believe that
the election of officers of those two roads 10 the
Kansas City Southern board might signify an ex-
tension of his influence in the Kansas city South
ern which he controlled for several years until
Hermann Sielcken and his friends. in 1905, obtained
the control and with which the Union Pacific sys-
TEN few months ago established traffic relations
In well informed quarters, however. 1t was said
that Mr.. Hartman had not been increasing such
sto-k interest in the Kansas City Southern as he
might have held, and that the entrance Of Messrs.
Williams and Bacon into the board, while making
for better relations between the present and for

was probably due primarily TO Mr. Loree
