Stepmother Of Mint Julep.

Stepmother Of Mint Julep.
Romance and poetry have delighted

brate and perpetuate the glory of the

Its fine horses. beautiful women and
mint.
Kentucky has been designated as
the home of the mint julep, and It's
colonies have become famous all over
the world for the easy and graceful
way in which they drink whisky with
little dash of sugar and sprig or
two of mint in order, chiefly, to over
come the necessity for large amount
of water in the beverage. The true
Kentuckian doesn't want his whisky
drowned.
1t transpires, however, that the real
home Of the mint and the mint julep
Is right here in Missouri, whose crop
Of mint last year amounted to 1858
pounds, or enough to make 1,224,320

To the New Year

Oh child New Year, whom the mantle falls
OF the departing year, who leaves to thee,
The labors, tasks the duties and the calls
Which are the herlooms of the past to be
precious trust the heritage of time,
How will thou face the future all alone?
How front the foes of sin, and vice, and crime,
Which muster round with force and might un-
known?
Take courage, child of time be not dismayed,
Equip thyself with faith and hope and love,
And seek for strength and wisdom from above;
With these to help thee never be afraid
Go forth with gadness thine untrod way,
And strength will to thee from day to day.

To the Neuu Year
and the Old Friends

The mson wanes pale in the sky
And the stars all blink for morn:
The old year is to die,
And the rev year to be born
We have passed through the vale of tears,
We have trod the journey long
We hav> shared our hopes and fears
We hare shared our grief and song;
And we've shared them all with our old friends
Our true friends our few friends,
And We'll drain anew to our old friends,
The friends that are always true.

Kept Umbrella Thirty Years,

A faithful old umbrella which has
shielded the family Of DR.. James A.
Mullican Of Greenwood avenue from
the storms of 30 years. was stolen on
Sunday. During the rain on that day
the physician lent the umbrella to p.
A. Seek, and while the latter was in .
store some one stole 1t.
1.-THE umbrella belonged to my faith
er and has been in the family for
more than thirty years." said Doctor
Mullican the other night. 1T has been
covered several times.
"To persons who are unable to keep
the same umbrella for more than thir-
ty days this may seem incredible, but
il is true," concluded Doctor Mullican
with smile-Chicago Tribune.

But this great day of begin
nngs for Japan, with it's idling and many pleas
ures, at last comes to close On the second day
of the year the duty of work is celebrated. In the
home the children strive to show to their parents
the best they do in penmanship or in memory
of things to be learned Girls try their first orna-
mental needework piece of music; merchants
open their shops with show of receiving their
first goods for the year. On the street many pro-
cessions of coolies are bearing beautifully or
namented specimens of the trades of their masters.
Heavily loaded wagons, brilliantly decorated with
lanterns flags and advertisements drawn by oxen
covered with many colored cloths, pass from dis
trict to district accompanied by singing and dane
ing workmen.
Toward the evening of the second day street
pedders, crying Treasure ships for sale!" go
about among the crowds. They sell rough draw
ings of the "Seven Gods of Happiness, afloat in
boat Nultitudes buy these carcatures of
ancient sacred group much as we might buy
pictured Santa Claus That night the treasure
ship must lie under ones pillow. The dreams
that come then mean much for the rest OF the
opening year.
On the third day of the New Year the firemen
of the towns have their annual parade and give
public exhibitions of acrobatic skill in many places
These exhibitions are no mean shows Some OF
the performers display an agile ability in climbing,
balancing and leaping that is of extraordinarily
high order.
Indeed, all the days of the first fortnight of the
new year are red letter days, until the fifteenth
day comes, when seemingly most comical end
ing of the whole festal takes place. The
people after that settle down to the commonplace
order of regular daily labor The Japanese people
at the present time do not take this closing event
seriously to heart than we of this land now
regard the ride of Tam OShanter; but, theoreti-
cally the inhabitants Of the Internal regions dur
ing the first fortnight of the new year have as
merry good time the people of this world. On
the fifteenth day, however, the instruments of tor
ture in hell begin to work again. On this day it
is that the temples consecrated to Emma O, the
king of Hades cra1nmed with devotees and
gather large of offerings from fearful sim
ners. 1t is wonderful sight, temple Of Emma
in mid-January, in one of the great cities. Ro-
man carnival could not be jostling, jolly or
absurdy funny. Japanese fun making is at it's
freest there and all that is done seems to be for
given the worshipers, II their contributions to the
treasure boxes of his majesty, the regent of the
inferno. are generous. With the festival of this
god the year earth and under the earth
has for the Japanese passed away feast, and
lifes duties fairly begun again.
Of course the Japanese New Year Is today fast
losing some of it's oldtme characteristic fascina-
lions, but enough of its unique quaintness and
charm remain to give it distinctiveness among the
festivals of the nations and to keep 1t object
for foreign tourists to enjoy.

From late figures the hope of recov- cry under the new emOllient treatment seems to be about as follows:
 In people of sixty and over results are quite uniform, probably nine-tenths recovering. While at fifty and other a large majority of all cases yield to the treatment, below fifty and approach ing forty the disease gets more stub born. and between thirty and forty the percentage is not high-probably not much over half yielding.
 Under thirty the percentage is less and in children recoveries have been very few and most of those were ob- tained with the aid of skilled physi- clans forcing nutrition, with alkaline treatment to prevent formation of ace tones

YEARl|NG PAGES FAST
 MILE AT FAIR GROUNDS
Circles Track in 2:24 and Owner Hopes That He Will Break the Worlds
 Record of 2:19.

The fastest mile ever made at the Arizona fair grounds track by a year ling was paced Wednesday by a colt in the string of F. H. Holloway, which he recently brought here from Hemet, California. Two minutes and twenty four seconds, within five seconds of the worlds record for yearlings, was the time made.
 Holloway brought his fast colt to Arizona in the hope of being able to break the worlds yearling record on this track, which he knows to be the fastest in the country. The present yearling record is 2:19.
 Several days ago the Holloway colt went around the track Tn 2:26, estab- fishing a new record for himself, and Wednesday he lowered that record two seconds. Neither time did he appear to make any unusual effort. MT. Hollo- way intends to force him a little dur ing the fair and see if he can't cover a mile in a second or so under 2:19.
 c. A. Durfee's string arrived last night and will be on the track today. Durfee's horses are Helen Stiles, pr. Lecco and Happy Dentist. The W. S. Durfee string should be here in three or four days.
 Taking everything into consideration the chances for new records being made at this fair look better than they ever did before. Minor Heir of the Savage stables recently set a new rec ord for himself and he may lower ii here for the track is better than any he has paced on this season.

DEMOCRACY IN GERMANY.
Issue Likely to Be Foremost in the
 Next Electoral Campaign.

Berlin-Signs of the electoral cam paign due in Germany a little more than twelve months hence are already perceptible, a campaign that should prove a landmark in German history.
 Chancellor Bethmann- HOllweg has let it be understood in private conver- sation that he means to rally the mid- dle classes, who compose nearly three fifths of the population, round the standard of protection under which Germany has made such advances in prosperity. He hopes thereby to stay the rising current of popular opinion in favor of a revision of the tariff treaties and at the same time command a ma jority able to crush the hundred or hundred and fifty socialists expected in the new Reichstag.
 It would be a mistake to conclude from the Chancellor's electoral cry of Protection in danger that there is any big movement in Germany for tariff revision or free trade. There is indeed unmistakable uneasiness in the empire at the increased and ever tn- creasing cost of living. The agitation for the admission of foreign meat, Ar genuine included, is one proof of it. The feeling among the middle and low CT classes that the Agrarians Qarge land owners and farmers Dare favored by the treaties at their expense is an- other The pressure on almost every class of the fresh taxes introduced by the recent finance reform is third.
 But the coming electoral campaign will not be fought on commercial or financial grounds. Every German sees and feels that he is living in new Germany, a Germany far greater in the world, far more prosperous, far more comfortable, far more respected and far more civilized than the Ger many of fifty or even twenty years back.
 He knows that all these advantages must be paid for, and he pays for them more or less willingly when he takes note of the swelling figures of his country's trade and of the eountry's growing influence and prestige. It Is Germany's internal political situation. not her tariffs or her finances. that Will provide the issues at the approaching elections.
 Germany, in short, is changing, and not only commercially and socially She has changed politically too, internally as well as externally.
 The outstanding feature of this in- ternal political change is the demo-

FLORENCE COUPLE
 MARRIED IN PHOENIX
Wedding of s. A. BsrtIeson and Mrs.
 Gertrude PendIeton

Sidney A. Bartleson and Mrs. Gertrude F. Pendleton of Florence were married yesterday afternoon by Bishop J. M. Kendrick of the Epis- copal church at the latter's home in this city. MT. Bartleson has been in Phoenix for several days being joined yesterday by his bride-to be, both stopping at the Commercial hotel
 After the wedding when the bride changed her registration to a new name there was naturally a conclu sion around the hotel that a newly married couple was being sheltered there, and as they took no one into their confidence some curiosity was expressed. Later the facts were made public, and demonstrate as is often the case that people have good reasons for very ordinary events that they do not care to discuss with every one they meet, being them selves alone concerned.
 It transpires that the newly mar ried have been planning matrimony for long time having been engaged for the last two years, though the celebration of their nuptisls was not intended just at this time. MT. Bartleson however, found it neces- sary to enter the hospital at once for surgical operation, and in that extremity he desired the presence of his wife to be and she also desired the privilege of nursing him through his ordeal, so they hastily arranged for marriage at once, privately and without ostentation.
 Mir Bartleson is one of the lead ing cattlemen of Pinal county and an old resident having made that his home for the last twenty years. His bride also is well known there and both have many friends in Phoe- nix who will wish them happiness
