WHOM DO ! CALL THIS TIME7
Lots Of Fun in New osme II Played
by Large company-erizes Add
to the Amusement.

II this game is played by 4 large
company, it adds to the fun.
A stake is set up in the middle OF
the room or on a lawn. A "grace
hoop" stake will do. There must be
a ring for each player and name
Of a player attached to each ring.
There are two sides and a captain
for each side. The hoops lie in a
pile and the captain Of one side takes
a hoop and tosses it toward the stake,
exclaiming: Whom do l call this
time?" If the captain fails to place
the ring over the stake, the captain OF
the other side takes his turn. On
the other hand, If the ring goes over
the stake, number one, next to the
captain of the other side, has guess
as to whose name is written on the
slip attached to the ring: If he guesses
correctly, he can choose one from the
other side; II his guess Is wrong, that
side loses a player. and 80 on till one

When the Minister Scored.

In a contradiction to the Christian
Register, Thomas r. Slicer tells this:
Some men the other night, in con-
versation with me. knowing l was a
minister--and it Is the spirit Of this
time to put 1t up to a minister in
terms at least of gentle satire-said:
We have been discussing conscience,
and one of them said, I have given a
definition of conscience; it is the YER
micular appendix of the SOUL and they
laughed And said, That is a good
definition in your case; you never
know you have it until it hurts YOU
Then they did not laugh"

Dust and Tuberculosis.

AS a result of the dangers from con-
sumption to those exposed to various
forms of dust, and at the request OF
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis, tho
United States government has recently
appointed a commission to work In CO.
operation with state authorities in
making an investigation into the con-
ditions Of the metal mining industries
In the United States, with special ref
erence to diseases Of the lungs. The
work Of the commission engaged in
this special task will follow lines
somewhat similar to those worked out
by the Royal Commission of Australia,
whose report was recently received in

HOW TOY PUPPIES ARE MADE
Teaspoonful Of Raw Meat Each
Day-Aicohol Also Used.

The ordinary public is under tho
impression that TOY dogs" are a spe.
cial breed of themselves. Mrs. Ken
ingdale Cook exposes this cruel trade
in the hope that it will kill the de-
mand for such unhappy "pets."
The exhibitor of champion toy dog
at a recent great dog show explained
to the newspaper reporters that it was
1.-The breeding that did it," This is a
misleading statement. 1t is not the
breeding but unnatural inbreeding
which produces degenerates. Some
times tiny dogs are obtained from old
parents. This is one of the methods
adopted among others even more re-
pulsive. The smallest puppy of the
litter is picked out and fated for a
special career; he is to be brought
on" as show dog, and only to be
sold at high price. He is specially
fed on teaspoonful of chopped raw
meat for meal.
1t is we'll known to veterinary sur
geons that raw meat "creates an ap-
petite which means that it causes
flow of gastric Juice. They use it with
sick dogs, who do not care to eat, and
generally find that after a little raw
meat they are willing to eat whole
some and sufficient meal. But the
valuable toy puppy has the raw meat
in small quantities-half teaspoon.
full for meal-and nothing more; the
result is that the gastric juice cor.
rodes the walls of the stomach and
causes permanent gastritis. Some
breeders have the puppy that is on
this special diet weighed every morn
ing, and If he shows any increase in
weight he has no food at all that day,
not even the half teaspoonful OF raw
meat. Sometimes alcohol also is civ
en-
Most owners of dogs of this kind
find that their pet is i'll when first in
their charge: and they will perhaps
boast with pride that they have cured
him: but, alas, It is generally added
with regret, HE has grown bigger!"
They have no idea that he always has
been more or less i'll from want of
natural feeding. Many die soon after
they pass into new ownership, and
people think 1t is because they did not
know how to take care of them. In
any case, they are short lived, and
succumb with great suffering to any
attack OF illness, because they are de-

 Not only because of its great ore bodies. but because the ore carries the sulphides that smelters must have. is the Saddle Mountain valu- able It is believed that as soon as the Ray Consolidated shelter at Hayden, for which the ground has al ready been cleared, is blown in the Saddle Mountain ore will all be smelted there.

PHOENIX COMING
 ON PEA VINE LIMITED.
The Pea Vine Limitedi

The Pea Vine Limited,
 That is the name of the excursion train that will take an army of val. ley boosters to Prescott on the 27th to demonstrate to the mile-high peO- pie how much Phoenix appreciated their recent visit and how glad they are to have an opportunity to spend few days in the pines. The name of the excursion train was decided upon at a meeting of the publicity committee yesterday, the Pea Vine Limited being deemed appropriate fOr various reasons. The reason for call ing if "limited" is that never be fore has Arizona run an excursion on a limited train. and this is called has no "limited' trains and it was decided that this would be a good time to start one Another reason is that patronage will be limited tC those travellers who have tickets; there will be no hObOes allowed. and the cost of round trip tickets will be limited to S5.50 The use of the tickets will be limited to May 27-3l
 inclusive, but that is five days and will afford quite an outing.
 But one does not have to go on the Pea Vine Limited unless he wants to though it is hoped that all who car will take advantage of its superb equipment for it leaves the first day the tickets are good and the early goers will have more for their money. If their business will not allow them to take this train which leaves at 7:45 a. m. Saturday morn ing. May 27. they may take any other train before May 3l. the limit of the tickets. But there is one thing that will certainly be unlimited and that is the enthusiasm of the excursiOnists and the fun they will have.
 The publicity committee is raclIlng its brain just now for ideas, how best to keep the importance of the excur- sion before the people. One thing that is decided upon however Is that there will be a little publication is
 ued from the train a feature of which will be as nearly as possible, a full list of the names of everybody on board. In this the committee asks for the cooperation of the exeursiOnists. The tickets will be on sale several days before the 27th and it is hoped that everybody who intends to go will buy his ticket just as soon as he has made up his mind and not wait until the last minute. The tickets will be on sale at the Santa Fe office and the names of purchasers will be taken by the ticket agent and fur nished to the publishers of the train paper. Of course there will be late corners but the more complete the list the better for all concerned. The paper will tell the Prescott people who are on board and will be of a great convenience to the hosts as well as a nice souvenir for the ex- eursiOnists.- Phoenix Republican.

GENERAL CONDITIONS
NEVER BETTER
Payette Valley as Whole Never
Had Brighter Outlook for All Crops
Growers Spraying for Scale
Trees Show Healthy Condition and
Many Fruit Spurs Set.

4 With continuation OF favorable
weather the Payette Valley will rear
one of the most bounteous fruit crops
in all her history the coming fall.
Never did the fruit trees in the
valley winter better than they have
the past season and never were there
any more fruit spurs set giving evil
dence of a heavy crop of fruit, than
are in evidence this spring. This is
not only true of apples, pears and
prunes but of all small fruits and
peaches. A E. Wood who has the
largest peach orchard in this end
of the valley is satisfied that the
peach crop this year is going to be
a record breaker He has his young
peach orchard in fine shape having
pruned it well this winter and placed
everything in shape TO harvest a big
crop.
The growers are all busy spraying
for scale at the present time and
from every grower who is busy in
his orchard comes the report that
the number of fruit spurs set this
spring is almost phenomenal.
Those who have smudge pots and
have any fears whatever that jack.
frost, that master thinner Of fruit,
win make an unusual appearance
this year. are prepared to give him
a run for the money and the gener-
al indications at this time are that
should he decide TO put in an ap-
pearance, which is highly improbab-
lie that he will receive warm recep-
ton.
