Bisbee daily review., 1911-02-09

nous sum-total of the fire loss of the decade just closed, the marvel is that this country. even with it's elas- tic financial constitution and with its power of resource and recuperation, weathered the loss with as little per ceptible damage.
 It is certain that of all these mounting millions sacrificed to fire. large fraction could have been saved by the enforcement of proper precautions. Building ordinances of adequate rigidity in town and city, and regulations regarding the storing of combustibles. would go far in the right direction
 Fortunately. the tendency, in the cities at least, is toward greater strlctness in the manner of prevent i've protection against fire.
 It still remains that the rural dis. triets are at present poorly equipped in this respect, though individual education is working improvement.

TO HOLD COURT

EDINBURG. Feb. s.-The at, nouncement that soon afer he eoro. nation the King and Queen are to visit Edinburg and hold a levee and court in old Holyrood Palace has been received with much grstifica- tion by the people of Scotland The announcement is all the most inter esting from the animation it con tains that the King and Queen will probably reside at the palace during their stay in Edinburg. If this proves true 1t will be the. first time in more than eighty years that old Holyrood has sheltered the sovereign. King Edward and Queen Alexandra came to Edinburg soon after their corona ton and held a court at Holyrood. but their Majesties did no, however. 'ake up their residence at the palace. which at that time was undergoing extensive repairs.
 Old Holyrood Palace was original ly convent. supposed to have been founded in 112S by David I. It be. came a regular royal residence in the time of James ". and James " built the apartments known as Queen Mary's. With the exception of these apartments the whole palace was burned at the close of the civil war. and Charles II erected the pres ent palace. The apartments of Queen Mary remain in the same state al when occupied by her In the bed room is an ancient bed and other furniture, and on one side of th, room is he door of the secret pass age by which the conspirator: Iagainst Rizzio entered in f566.

EASY CHANGE
When Coffee Is Doing Harm


 A lady writes from the land of cotton Of the results of a four years use of the food beverage-hot Pos tum.
 Ever since can remember we had used coffee three times 8 day. It had a more or less injurious ef- feet upon us all, and I myself sui fered almost death from indigestion and nervousness caused by 1t.
 T know it was that. because when I would leave it of for a few days would feel better. But it was hard to give it up, even though I real ized how harmful 1t was to me.
 At last found a perfectly easy way to make the change. Four years ago I abandoned the coffee habit and began to drink Postum, and I also influenced the. .~rest of the family to do the same. Even the children are allowed to drink it freely as they do water. And fl has done us all great good.
 T 10 longer suffer from indiges ton. and my nerves are in admir- able tone since T began to use Postum. We never use the old coffee any more.
 We appreciate Postum as a de ] lightful and healthful beverage which not only invigorates but sup plies the best of nourishment as we'll" Name given by Postum Co Battle Creek, Mich.

AVIATION

Continued From Page I) ished locomotive power on land: then the steam engine was invented for use in train service and steam ship lines, and the gas motor made a household utility of the autouo- bile. Thus man conquered the dis tance on land and defeated the winds of the ocean, but the toll of human life was great before new inventions wero harnessed.
 Then the submarine was invented and the depths of the seas were charmed by the churn of the marine engine screw; but before this was made safe whole crews lost their lives.
 Finally all these modes of loco motion and navigation have been improved so far as human ingenuity and care can make them.
 Only one element remained to be mastered-the air. Mythology tells us that the ancients had their ambitions and the Icarus tried to fly with wings of wax which melted in the heat. of the sun, precipitatine the aviator into the sea.
 Since then it has been the great ambition of men to fly. It took de cades of certures to accomplish the task Now it is easy, too easy in fact, for to carelessness may be sscribed many of the accidents.

MILLIONS IN SMOKE.

Two hundred and ninety-two mil. lion dollars in one year is a stagger- ing tribute to pay to the fire god. Yet that is the sum total of the cost of fires in the United States during the year 1906. according to a writer in the New York Commercial. The tariH duties for the same fiscal year were only about two million dol. lars in excess.
 That particular year presented. of course. an exception. But the av- craze for the decade. s1s7.4O0. 900. is formidable enough.
 popular fallicy exists to the ef feet that when a fire insurance com pany shoulders the loss resulting from a conhagration, the slate is wiped clean, and nobody the worse for the calamity.
 If the amount of money in exist ence responded automatically to loss by fires, there would be something more than consolation in this view But since the amount of money i: strictly limited. loss at one point mast be made up at some othei point. So that nearly three hundred millions going up in smoke, as it did in 1906. leaves big hole in oul national income for that year, con sidered from the ultimate economic standpoint.
 And when enc considers the enor
