Vacation as a Developer.

Do you think a vacation is a loss of time? It is the best kind of an in vestment-an investment in fresh brains. in vigorous health, in increased vitality.
 People who seldom or never take a vacation get into ruts. Their minds get stuffy and clouded; they lose the power of expansion, of growth; they lose freshness of view; the ability to grasp opportunities; and, finally, they lose their grip on things and on them selves.
 Recreation, for those who have been held closely to business for long time is like the turning up of hard soil by the blow, letting in the sun light and stirring up the chemical forces that have been sleeping during the winter. Slumbering germs start when they feel the warm sun, the gen tie rain, and the tonic of the dew. There is rejuveneration and growth in

THE AMIABLE TELEGRAPH COM
 PANIES.

In the course of an article calcu- lated to dispute the recently and widely published story that the Pos tai Telegraph company and the Over land Telephone company had entered into an arrangement by which the Postal would return to Phoenix, an evening paper points out the absurd ity of the story on the ground that the Postal and the Western Union are owned by the same people" and consequently would not infringe upon the territory of each other.
 It will be interesting to the rest of the United States to learn that George J. Gould and Col. Robert Clowry, who own all that is worth owning of the Western Union, and Clarence Mackay, who is really the Postal, are the same people,"
 For some years previous to the dis covery last Saturday of this astounding amity and oneness of purpose of these two companies, there had been a gen. eral impression throughout the coun- try that there was a bitter and re- lentless war on. They are appar- ently infringing upon each others territory at all eastern points and have been doing so for years,
 The Associated Press dispatches within the last two months have de- scribed the stupendous efforts of MT. Mackay to strengthen his position west of the Rockies and have de- scribed his penetration of hitherto exclusive Western Union territory in Nevada in his efforts to reach the coast.
 In railroad companies, there Is ire ouentlv such a mutuality of stock interests that it is hard for outsiders to say who is really in control. But there is none of this mutuality in the shares of the two telegraph compa- nies; at any rate if there is any at all it has never been noticeable in their fight with each other for su- premacy wherever they meet and they meet whenever 1t is possible.
 The Postal unwillingly got out of Phoenix a few years ago because the Western Union got under its lease, and we are informed on the most reliable authority that it will be back here as soon as the Overland Tele- phone company establishes connec- tion with this city.

The bull l-fighting interests of Mex ico are as much agitated over the flu ture of the sport as the race track gamblers were over the future of horse racing when the fight to enforce the constitution was on in New York, California and Kentucky. They have suffered an unexpected and it is alleged-a damaging blow. The health authorities have forbidden the sale of the meat of the butchered bulls The managers say that if they cannot sell the meat of the six vic tins regularly slaughtered at the de- lectable spectacle they must shut down the show They are not at all concerned over the quality of the product thrown on the market, or over it's effect on the health of the con- sumer. Their position may seem un- tenable in our eyes. but it is not so different from that assumed in this country on different occasions, when the enforcement of sanitary or hu- mane regulations affected what some body had regarded as a vested right. that il need cause surprise.

human knowledge. it would not be a commanding institution. Our religion rests wholly upon the Word and if that is unreliable or insufficient there can be no religion to which we can cling.
 The trouble seems to be that we are trying to adjust our belief to science of which we yet know so lit- tle-to make it fit in with our newer conceptions of the world.
 We have but faith; we cannot know; For knowledge is of things we see; And yet we trust it comes from Thee, A beam in darkness; let it grow. '
 Dr. Butler. whose great Analogy has proved an anchor to many doubt ing souls, sought to adjust things of the world to the Word of God.

If there is one thing now more talked about than another it is the through-line railroad which had been allowed to lapse into a state of neg lect so far as the public at large was concerned. There is a rapid reawak- ening of popular interest in the mat ter which we think will be communi- cated to the Southern Pacific shortly, resulting in an early resumption of operations on the Phoenix X Eastern.

 According to the August number of the Cosmopolitan, they have Chris tianity in the Crucible" By they is meant the universities. That is, Christianity is to be refined, purified of the dross which advanced thinkers believe has marred it through some nineteen hundred years. Not alone Christianity. but all revealed religion is put into "the crucible." There will be found a great many old fashioned people who will wonder by what pe- cuIiar fitness these thinkers are going to remodel the religion of their fath- ers-the religion which has been found most satisfactory to more emi- nent theologians and students than are now proposing its reform.
 If the reforms went only to church practices which have crept in from age to age. there might be no objec- ton to them but when they propose the elimination of much that has hith- erto been regarded as vital doctrine it seems that a removal of the founda- ticn is contemplated. Such a re form" which we believe is impossi- ble, if it should be effected, would be followed by the collapse of the whole structure

at least one dreaded disease that
science has been able to uce in
all its stages, and that is Catarrh.

constitutional disease, requires a

thereby destroying the foundation
OF the disease, and giving the pa
tient strength by building up the
