Three little chickens.
Born in o shoe.
When the freshet came
Didn't know what to do.
One went on deca,
Just to watch the weather,
While down below
The others sat together.
"Oh! what shall we do?
Mother Is not here.
Captain there on deck!
oh! what cheer? what cheer?'
Water everywhere.

PREMIUM LISTS
 FOR B|G FAIR
The Sun Has Received a Small Consignment of Lists from the Fair Commissioners For
 Free Distribution.

The 1910 premium list has been issued by the Arizona Fair com missioners, and copies are now being mailed to prospective ex- hibitors over the territory. The book gives a detailed account of each article for which premiums are offered. The total amount of prizes exceeds $4o,ooo. It also contains the rules and regulations governing the fair and governing the entering of exhibits.
 It is not generally known that an exhibitor need not attend the Territorial Fair to be premium winner. Articles for exhibition may be sent to the superintendent of the department for which the article is intended and this is all that is necessary, Premium lists may be had free for the asking at this office, and our readers are urged to call and obtain a copy. It is desired to make a good show ing otexhibits from this county at the coming Territorial Fair.

Consumption Can Be Cured

A specific has at last been discover ed which will positively cure con sumption. "'ruberclecide" completely eliminates the tuberculosis germs from the human body.
 Results are extremely prompt. Even in severe cases, the tubercle bacilli have been entirely destroyed within eight months. In others. marked im- provements have been noted within two to six weeks. This improvement continues until complete cure is ef- fected.
 We have positive proof of our sue cess. Write for full particulars. Tuberclecide Co.,, 702 International Bank Bldg, Los Angeles, Gal.

New Residents in Towns

When intending to make one's S home in a new place, tact is re- quired in order to make friends and acquaintances. A young mar ried pair, for instance, may be about to establish themselves in a strange town, where the husband expects to succeed in professional or business life, and the wife wish- es to aid him as far as possible, socially or otherwise. Naturally, before leaving home, ones friends would be told of ones future resi- dence. If they have friends in the new place 1t is usual for them to write to their friends and ask them to call. No suggestions of this sort may be made by the new resi- dents to any friends.
 It would not be correct to have letter of introduction to anyone when going to live in a place, ex- cept from the clergyman with whose church one has been con- nected. He may be asked to give letter of introduction to the clergyman whose church one ex- poets to attend in the new town. The clergyman in the strange place should call on the new com CTS, and he may ask others to call. By engaging in some sort of church or charitable work new resident may be thrown with pleasant as- sociates or committees. If one has belonged to a club in another town 1t would soon become known that the new resident might be an acceptable member of a club m the community. But all this must come slowly. Everything is lost by seeming too eager to make friends. Much is gained by tact, wisdom, good manners and a pleasing personality.
 In small towns people are usual ly friendly and neighborly and glad to welcome new residents, but new resident must not make advances, or try to start club, or make calls on strangers or old residents. She must wait to be called on by old residents. She must be wary about suggesting innovations of any sort in the town, as old residents are apt to resent this from new corners.
