when the time of his detail Is up. which will be
early next spring. u is a nice question for the
President to determine who shall succeed him
This Is not because there Is any lack of good
material on which 10 draw for chief OF stan.
Rather the plethora OF able officers Is embar-
rassment. But the chief difficulty Is that each Of
tho three leading bUanches OF the service wants
the place The infantry officers want an infantry
officer chosen. The cavalry wants a cavalry off,
Ger. and the same can he said of the artillery
branch
General Bell is a cavalry officer. OF course he
would like To sec officer Of his branch Of the
service take his place.
large number Of general officers are mentioned
for the place. one Of them Is BrlgadIer General
w. w. WOtherspoOn, Assistant Chief Of Staff and
Acting Chief of Staff In the absence Of General

A Wealthy Soldiers Idea.

Australians still tell stories of the colonial volunteers, although the war Is far memory. One, a member of the Stock Exchange, was left one wet and miserable night to guard wagon load of goods. He shivered in the un- sheltered place for some hours ponder ing many things, and then bright thought struck him just as the colonel came around on his tour of inspection.
 'Colonel.' he asked, "how much Is this wagon worth:"
 II don't know was the answer Much or little, we cant afford to lose it.,a
 Well. but, colonel" persisted the amateur soldier, you might give me 8 rough idea of the value.'
 About zoo" said the colonel testify
 "Nery well" was the answer; T will come down to the calnp and give you q check forsthe amount Then I'll turn In. I wouldn't catch my death of cold for twice that much"

Called the oeai or.

A lad attending school craved a lit- oe holiday one morning when hs starred out to wrestle once again with the trials incident to getting an edu- cation. As he entered the schoolroom he matched plot to get the coveted holiday. He went up to the teachers desk and told his story. "My mother wants to know if you won't excuse me for today" he began. "She wants me to do some work at home and thought If I'd study at home this even- ing and make up what I'd missed mebby you'd let me off."
 Something about the lads manner kept the words from carrying conyic- tton The teacher bIuffed back as fol- lows: Tommy" said she. you won't need 10 go home at all. Since you started to school your mother called me on the phone to tell me that she had changed her mind and for you to stay here"
 The lad looked at her, startled. "Aw. well" he said. "as long as both of us are lyin' about 1t let's just call 1t quits. I'll stay ."-Cleveland Plain Dealer

Bad Temper Wrong Food Hard To Be Pleasant With Sour
 Stomach or Aching Head.

No man is proud of poor days work. No man brides himself on nasty exhibition of temper. No woman wishes for a foul breath or a sallow complex ion or for a precipitation with offensive odor. Yet you, dear reader, may have all these. Our friends do not always tell us of our physical shortconlings-they bear with u. and excuse our faults.
 Know Thyself Health spells success and happiness. III health makes many man and woman misunderstood. Drugs, impure air darkness, bad water. bad food. or good food mixed badly all injure the body because they set up destructive chemical processes.
 E-C Corn Flakes or Egg-O-See Wheat Flakes are good foods-neither will mix badly in the stomach. A breakfast of these crisp. delicious tasty flakes with cream or milk and f. - ,;tarts the day right, and often these sensi ble breakfasts have re- stored to :"*inal a physical frame racked by poisons of rich, heavy foods that sour and destroy instead of digest and build up
 Remember it is only the famous Egg O-See process that makes E-C Corn Flakes and Egg-O-See Wheat Flakes so delicious and healthful

Fourteenth Century Doctors.

Syn"e's Social Life in England" quotes number of fourteenth century hin's |" success for physicians:
 Suppose you know nothing, say there IS an obstruction of the liver. Perhaps tl'e patient will say. "Nay, master, it Is my head or legs that trouble me. :" Repeat that 1t comes from the liver. and especially use the word .obstruc tion." for patients do not understand It. which is important.
 Never dine with a patient who has not paid you. It will be cheaper to get your dinner at an inn. for such feasts are usually deducted from the surgeons fee.
 Vixen you are treating a wound or accident. the friends of the patient should be excluded, for they may faint and cause a disturbance, but some times higher fee may be got from persons present fainting and breaking their heads against wood and the like than from the principal patient.

Secret Society Among Sese Islanders.

Secret Society Among Sese Islanders.
 The Sese islanders have attained q peculiar notoriety in Uganda because of secret society called the Bachichi which is not burial society, although its members take deep and intelli- gent interest in all deaths and burials in their midst. In the more retired viii lages. although greatly discouraged by the British authorities, it is said to be still the custom for the sorrowing rel atiyes to bear the body of the deceased wrapped in bark on rough bier to some forest thicket, desolate rayine or other unfrequented spot, where it is left unburied by the bearers. who nev- CT revisit the place again. The Bachi- chi. who are denizens of a neighboring village. and distant relatives of the deceased avoid the necessity of burial or cremation and show their respect for the deceased by simply eating him.

 OL-STONE-Cards have been received by Phoenix friends announc- ing the marriage of Frank Osborne Bristol and Miss Eloise Stone on Sep tember l at Haycock Point. Branford. Conn. MT Bristol was for some time a well known life insurance manager in this city and left here for the east several months ago to accept more lucrative and important managerial position in the same line of activity.

He visited Chicago, Pittsburg, Nigga "a Falls and New York, being in the latter place the guest of his two pEolhtIs, WHO dut pipSptiouS utht@tS Of the metropolis. Asked concern ing conditions as he noted them he said there is an air of generally re- turning prosperity wherever he went, and in most sections good crops and good prices prevail, SO it is not quite so bad as it might be. and people generally seem to be in a con tented frame of mind as he certainly was, having nothing to do but enjoy himself.

TO THE SPRINGS OVER SUM

OAY-w. K. James was among those who went to the springs for over Sunday and returned yesterday.
 ASSISTANT SECRETARY RE- TURNS MT. and Mrs. R. A. Kirk returned yesterday from Prescott, where they have been guests of George |. Young. at the Derby mine.
 IN OUT OF THE WET-A rainy day seems to have the effect of fill- ing both the city and county jails with drunks and disorderlies. Es- pecially is this true Saturday nights. week ago nineteen arrests were made in one night, making a total of twenty-three for the day, or nearly one each hour. Not so many were arrested last Saturday. The rainy day drunk is doubtless work is practically suspended in wet wetther and Mexicans, with nothing else to do but loaf and spend what little they have earned, congregate at the saloons and obstruct the side walks On wet afternoon the north side of Washington street between Center and First street. is made all most intollerable for the feminine shopper.
 RAGGED MANY DUCKS-George H. Lutgerding and his brother, R. L.. Lutgerding. spent all of Sunday and most of yesterday shooting ducks on the Gila. about fifteen miles from town. They returned yesterday with twenty-one ducks of different va rieties. although they shot in all something over forty. They started out Saturday in q horseless wagon and it was not a motor wagon, either. They camped out near the river Sat urday night and began the slaughter of the ducks Sunday. That was the only day on which they saw any of the birds. During the rains of Sun day they were pretty thick at times and the game bag was soon filled. They looked for ducks again yester- day but found none. A good many of the birds shot were lost, owing to the fact that the dog which they took along to retrieve them got tired of the expedition and returned to town alone.
