Perfectly Moulded Figure

To get out of condition is detri- mental to beauty of form as well as to health There is a certain flabbiness which robs a good figure of charm and grace Those who are beginning to grow fat rapidly are never in the pink of condition.
 But here medical science has slipped in with very wonderful remedy-one which not only restores a perfectly moulded form but renews health and strength We give the recipe in full for the benefit of our stoutish friends F oz. Marmola, F oz. Fluid Extract Cascara Aromatic and 3h oz. Pepper mint Water.
 Any druggist will make up this pre- scription, or supply you with the in gredients which you can mix yourself The dose is one teaspoonful after each meal and at bedtime.
 The great virtue of this harmless remedy is that whilst the excess fat is being expelled. the person under treatment has healthy appetite and does not need to study dietetics or go in for tiresome exercises The whole system is refreshed" and reinvigor- ated, the blood renewed and muscular development restored.

SUBSCRIPTION LIST
 IS GROWING RAPIDLY
The Committee Is Busy and Has Se- cured About Half the Needed
 Amount.

The committee of three, appointed to solicit subscriptions from the people of Tempe for the purpose of purchas- ing tract of land across the river as a site for the Arizona Cement com pany's plant has been having excellent success and without making any spe- eial effort had raised about half the amount yesterday The committee is now planning to devote a few hours to the work Monday morning and the business men should be prepared to sign up when they see the three mem bers of the committee come in front of the store. By singing up promptly. the work of the committee will be greatly facilitated, though it is not an ticipated that there will be the slight est difficulty in securing the required amount. The fact that the money is not to be paid until the plant is con structed makes it much easier to se- cure subscriptions to the fund. for if anything happens and the plant is not built no one is out anything, and if it is built, and there is every reason to expect that it will be, the benefit de- rived from its location so near Tempe will be many times greater than the amout subscribed.

LABOR PARTY MEETING
 NO MESA CANDIDATES
1t Is Difficult to Arouse An Interest
 Here.

At the meeting of the labor party held at this place Friday evening it was determined not to send any dele gates to the constitutional convention. from the fact that there is so little interest taken in the proposition at this place.
 A. A. WOrsley, the Tucson attorney, who was scheduled for the evening, did not appear, but his place was taken by James l.. McNew of Phoe- nix, who is an active worker for the labor party, with headquarters at Phoenix. According to the statements of the gentlemen who occupied the Speakers stand, the democratic party is continually stealing their available timber. It was given out that two candidates at least were stolen bodily last Wednesday. those being Rev. Crutchfield and F. A. Jones
 The attendance was rather light. there being twenty-eight present who heard the speaking. and when the business after meeting was called six remained to map out plan of cam paign which finally resolved itself into a general campaign for the party without a local representative from this place In other words, the voters of the precincts surrounding Mesa who desire to affiliate with the la bor party will content themselves with voting for constitutional dele gates from other parts of the county.

You see how inn pulsive she is by her quick move ments. Her blood is goOd-notice her red lips. Her joy E life is strong notice her springy step. Her defiance of trifling convention is shown by her want of a left glove, which also tells us. by revealing her fingers. that she is engaged. Everything points to one conelusion-she reads Hewlett" I had said nothing while Beechcroft was talking because I wanted to hear the end. l was naturally interested in what he was saying because the girl happened to be my cousin and knew who her favorite authors were Marion Crawford and the William sons But all I said was: How ex- traordinarily clever you arei" After. however, he had left me decided to test his divining powers a little farther, so. taking my courage in my hands, 1 went up to the weary ] man with the nightshade in his but tonhole Excuse me-" I said very nervously, flor doing what is appar- ently a very rude thing, but would you mind telling me if you are an admirer of Mir Thomas Hardy's po- etry?"

ASSURANCE |s GIVEN Of Better Roads BetWenHere
 and Phoenix COOL WEATHER AND TAXES Will See Things Moving The Bridge Over the Alp propriators Canal to be Removed and the Canal Filled in.
COOL WEATHER AND TAXES

County Road Superintendent Acuff was a visitor on the south side yes terday. coming over in his automobile. When questioned as to whether or not he noted anything wrong with the road between here and Phoenix, he replied that he found a good many things wrong and deeply deplored the present condition of the road. At the present time, however, he said, we can't do much. We are short of funds a little and there has been so much dry wealth CT and so little rain, that it has been almost impossible for us to do any thing with this road this summer Just as soon as the cooler weather sets in and the taxes begin to come in, we are planning to improve that road a good deal. The bridge across the old Ap priator's canal will be entirely re- moved and the ditch filled in. We have been planning to do that for some time, but hesitated to do so on account of the dry weather Loose dirt put in there now would make matters even worse than they are at the pres eat time"
 From here MT. Acuff went on to Mesa looking over the roads on this side of the river. He gives assurance that considerable work is to be done on this. side but it is all being held up for two things-cooler weather and taxes.
 It will be good news to the people of the south side that Improvements are to be made in the highway between here and Phoenix, for they are cer- tainly needed. This has been an ex- ceptionally dry year in the valley and the roads over which there is much traffic have been all cut to pieces. The removal of the bridge across the App propriators canal will be an excellent thing. That particular bridge has been a menace to the safety of the public for a long time. It has been frequently repaired. but since the ca nal is no longer used, the removal of the bridge is the logical thing to do.

I'VE sA DEPARIMEMz
INDIAN BURGLAR
 CAUGHT IN THE LCI

On Thursday of last week Ellis Parker. who is the proprietor of a store at Roscoe, near the SacatOn Indian reservation, caught an Indian by the name of Juan in an attempt to break into the homestead house of Harvey Mossbarger. The Indian already had a child's dress in his pos session. which it is presumed that he had picked up at some of the other homestead houses throughout that vii cinity which are temporarily deserted throughout the summer season. The dress was later idetnified as one be- longing to one of the Obar children.
 Juan was not arrested. but upon the notifying of the officers at this place a warrant was sworn out for his arrest under the name of Juan Doe. If it is brought out in the trial that Juan has been making a practice of entering the houses of homestead CTS, the sentence will in all porbabil- ity be in keeping with the crime.

HE POWER WAS 0Ff
 ABSENCE OF WATER
But It Was Only Temporary and the
 Lights Came Back On.

For a while Friday evening it looked very much as if there would be no show in Tempe that night. About 4 o'clock the power went off uneXpect- edly and did not get back on again until nearly s o'clock. It developed that there had been some difficulty in the canal above Mesa or at Granite Reef At any rate, whatever the cause, all the water was shut off for a couple of hours The power plant depending upon water for it's power, was put out of commission until steam could be gotten up. This took some time and between the time the water went off and the steam came on, Tempe was without juice and was left in dark ness.
 The Tempe canal was entirely dry

FORMER RESIDENT
 IS COMING BACK
Says Arizona's Project Is the Best of
 Many He Has Seen.

t pr. George c. Rubel writes from Wa verly, Iowa, that he is still alive and happy. He is now at Waverly visiting his father and brother and is putting in most of his time catching black bass and automobile riding.
 The doctor says: "I have seen a great many different irrigation pro- jects in the west since I left but Ari- thing considered I expect to return to the valley in the fall"
 The doctor sends a clipping from an Idaho newspaper regarding the killing of child by lightning in Boise Meri- dian, Idaho while he was there visit ing. Three houses were struck by the same shaft, the bolt following along the telephone wire The doctor ex- presses the hope that the Tempe phones have heen equipped with light ming arresters. A portion of the clip ping will be of interest:
 The little daughter of MT. and Mrs
 Hedges was playing with her mother on the sofa directly under the tele- phone when the accident occurred. A physician was immediately sent for who arrived in fifteen minutes; but death was instantaneous. The father is a contractor of this city of the firm of Hedges & Johnson, but he main tains his residence in Meridian. Con-
 siderable comment is being made respecting this accident, due to the fact that none Of the residences above indicated was provided with automatic arresters with their telephone connec- tions. It is claimed that the passage of the electric current along the wires l from one home to another would bave l been prevented had such provision beer ! made on the part of the telephone
 company, though an investigation has
 not been made, and this point de- | termined"

LADIES OF MESA
 WANT CHAPTER HOUSE

Mrs. Celia Smith, who is one of the most active members of the American Woman's league at this place, announces that already five of the ladies have nearly earned the necessary tuition which will entitle them to a chapter house Three of the ladies are paid in full In regard to the organization, Mrs Smith says:
 The American Woman's league is a sound business organization. which is doing more to improve the social and educational life of the women of America than any movement ever at tempted in this country.
 "The requirement. for membership in the league is the simple securing of $52 worth of subscriptions to any of over 100 magazines that are CO., operating with the league, of which a list will be sent you on request.
 Just as soon as a given number of members have secured $52 in sub scriptions. the league will build a beautiful chapter. or club, house for their use.
 "The building will be fully and completely furnished. equipped with library. a meeting room, salesroom. kitchen, etc Every chapter house is equipped with a beautiful grand pho nograph, costing s225; thirty records are supplied, and changed every month for thirty new records. What others can do, we can do. The only question is. Do We want it?
 "A building of this description is needed here. It would be a center of entertainment and community inn
 provement Buildings have already been erected in many towns Over 300 chapters have been organized all over the United States from Maine to California Peck, Idaho, has a chap ter house. and it is only little town with less than 200 inhabitants. Other towns have buildings completed and occupied Are we going to let other towns beat us? Not only have they
 the building completely furnished, but they receive regular monthly re- mittance from the headquarters of the league for the maintenance of the chapter house to pay for light heat. etc.
 why not send and get literature telling all about the league and start | right in to get a chapter house here | in town? You can procure an apph- cation blank and start your member ship by taking out subscription to any of the magazines which are CO., l operating with the league. which will count full value towards your S5z worth of subscriptions to magazines in the league, your membership is | completed for life and you have nc dues or fees of any kind to pay. "This is certainly an opportunity vou cannot afford to let go by. Don't | put it off until tomorrow. Act to- l day"

INGENIOUS ANALYSIS.
Attempt to Judge Perosns by Books
 They Read Unsuccessful.

The following passage recently ap- peared in a review by Hester Brayne, in The Literary Post:
 Take the readers of a novelist. say MT Arnold Bennett. From my ob servation, which is fairly wide. they are extremely nervous with a ten dency to hysteria. essentially bour- geois in taste. although consciously unconventional in artistic, social and religious matters; their philosophic rationalism is but skin deep. remind ing one of the blotches of free thought that disfigure the novels of Mir Eden Phillpotts while endearing him to the members of the Rational ist Press associations; they possess the artistic temperament. and are proud of that dubious blessing"
 My ingenious friend Beechcroft, who is always on the lookout for new diversion. was greatly taken with the new Hester Brayne division of read CTS. and studied it until he had made science of it, says Punch. I met him last Sunday morning in Picca diny.
 Come into the park" he said, and take a pew, and I'll tell you what the people read
 How" I asked; and he explained the art Its quite easy" he said. after a little care" and off he went.
 He got to work at once. Do you see that thoughtful looking woman. |" he said, lover there? The one with the sage green dress with scarlet pop pies on her breast. and a retriever. She reads Galsworthy. They are all like that. more or less. Serious but very human. Lovers of dogs. Friends of liberty. You can tell them a mile off,
 I was surprised at his perspicacity. "GO on,' I said.
 And this prematurely weary per son with the buttonhole of night shade-of course you spot him." said Beechcroft.
 "No." I said. q am no psycholo- gist''
 Why. Hardy's his hero. of course.

RIBBONS.

Ribbons are being used extensively as trimmings both for hats and gowns On the gowns. ribbons ap- pear as ties, medium width of soft satin ribbon being tied in a flat bow or in a four n-hand. Ribbons are also used to give a color touch to pretty summer dresses and as trim mings for the tunics of marquisette and chiffon. On hats they may be used simply as a binding or as the whole trimming. In Paris a deep prune ribbon is being used on black hats, and black ribbon on a darl; blue or a gray hat is considered chic Ribbons of changeable color are also in vogue.
