Stewed Apples.

To stew apples so each quarter ls
unbrolen and so clear one can almost
see through it is m art, and yet it Is a
simple thing to do If one only knows
how. Peel tart apples very thin, cut
them in quarters and remove the cores
and seeds As fast as you can peel and
quarter them drop the apples in Il
saucepan in which you have already
placed cold water to the depth of two
inches. When the apples are all in, put
the saucepan over slow fire, cover IT
till the water reaches the boiling point.
then remove the cover and let the ap
pies simmer almost imperceptibly til
you can pierce them easily with a
broom spint then sprinkle the sugar
over them and let them just simmer
until it is all melted. Remove the
saucepan from the fire and let it stand
where the apples will get cold before
turning them into dish for the table

Too Late,


Mr. i. drove up in n hanson and en-
tered the jewelers. shop accompanied
by his valet, who carried an oblong
box Of steel. Mr.. b. asked for q pri-

into the office he opened the box, ex-
posing a splendid array Of diamond
and pearl necklaces, earrings, tiaras
and rings.
"Mrs. b." he said, is now abroad.
Before she returns | want you to cx-
tract these stones and replace them
with good limitations, selling the real
jewels and giving me the money. This,

CAN'T READ THEIR LIPS.
When Actors Do Not Face the Audi
ence II Bothers the Deaf.

"Time and time again we're asked
TO have our actors face the audience
squarely when speaking lines that are
IF great Importance" a theatrical
manager said recently. "The eXplana-
ton for the request is generally the
same-that deaf people in the audience
who depend on lip reading rather than
hearing lose the run of the play If
some important lines are spoken by a
person whose lips can't be read. An
actor or actress who's stuck on posing
In profile is always the despair of the
deaf people in the audience, as they
say it's almost impossible to read lips

"Out ticket agent hears another side
Of the same question. People tell him
when buying tickets that some one in
the party Is stone deaf and must read
the lips OF the actors I'm order to fol
low the play. Then they ask him on
which side Of the theater these par
ticular seats should be located to make
this lip reading the most satisfactory.
Often the stage setting decides which
way the actors must face, and IL a
deaf person gets on the wrong side OF
the house the play is practically lost"

To Stop Hiccoughs.

Simple cases of hiccough are often
relieved by such measures as sucking
Ice or taking salt and vinegar, says the
New York Medical Journal. Pulling
the tongue forward and holding it for
some time is an effective procedure.
Sometimes obstinate hlccough is re-
Iieved when the patient Is strong by
having him hang with the arms ex
tended and grasping some beam or
pole. so that his feet DO not touch
the floor With all the abdominal
muscles tense. have him hold his
breath as long as possible. Sneezing
is very efficient in certain cases, since
II is the exact opposite TO hiccough.

WANT ID BE SWEET
 COWBOY GIRLS

A prominent firm of sheep own CTS recently received the following touching appeal from a couple of St. Louis girls who do, o, so badly, want to be cowboy" girls on sheep ranch. They fail to state whether they want to com pile "mulligans" or merely coax d delightful burro around after a band of sheep. Here's the long, ing vail for the romantic life:
 St. Louis, March 3. Dear Sir:
 We are two girls of r. We wish to be cowboy girls and would like to know if you employ girls on your ranch. We like the life of a cowboy girl (ain't that sweet of 'em2) but we haven't the money to come on and we would like you to give us some information of how to get there. (Read some more Bertha M. Clay, and float out, girls.) Hoping to hear from you soon, we are waiting anx- iously. Sincerely yours,
 Ruth Cox and Edna Hilbert.
 What could be more cutter than a cowboy girl, who just loves that life, because she has seen the picture of girl in shaps in a magazine, and read just the beau tifulist stories of hcroines who married the rough but rich cattle man. Oia Oiall

RANGE AND MARKET NEWS
Items of Interest Pertaining to the Live Stock Industry of Arizona Mar
 ket for Past Week.
WEEKLY MARKET LETTER
(By j. A. Rickart, Correspondent

Kansas City Stock Yards, Mar. 6.-Cattle receipts here last week were less than thirty thousand head, and everybody was disap- pointed in the size of the run. The bad market of the previous week had good deal to do with the slim supply, as the cattle on feed now are in stronger hands than short time ago, and pro- fessional feeders do not get pan icky at the first cry of wolf. The market jumped up fast first three days of last week, but heavy fed steers sagged 10 or IS cents the last two days of the week. Net gain on steers was IS to 25 cents, and butcher stuff closed up IS to 25 higher also, stockers and feed- CTS a little higher for the week. Steers sold steady to 10 higher today, with S6. so top on heavy steers. Other kinds of cattle sold higher also, strong to 10 cents up, except calves, which seem to be headed the other. Calf supplies nave been extra heavy since the first of January, and the supply of them will grow from now on. Prices are a quarter lower than a week ago. Heavy bulls are also a little lower than a week ago. Top steers reached S6.75 last week, equal to the best price paid in February. Killers say that the beef outlet is bad, and attribute it to the fact that hogs, sheep and lambs are each nearly three dol lars cheaper than year ago at this time, and are therefore more attractive to consumers. Cattle are ST to SI 50 cheaper now than a year ago. Bulk of steers sell at S l5 to S6. 30, good cows s. to SS..5, heifers S4. so to S6, bulls S4.25 to S5.I5, calves S to S8, quarantine steers S5.25 to S6, Col orado cows S4 to S5.2o. Stock steers range from SAYS to $500, feeders S5.35 to S6.
 Supplies of sheep and lambs have been rather light, and the run today is only fair for Monday, 10000 head. The market was good last week, closing up little higher, and prices are 10 higher today than last Friday. Lambs brought $6.I5 today, and ewes $4.45, highest in each case in two weeks. Yeaalings are worth up to S5.5o wethers S4 4.6o. A good many common lambs are coming, which sell 20 to 3s cents below the best, and feeding lambs are selling freely at S5.35 to SS.4o. Top ewes today came from Rocky Ford, Colo, and two lots of lambs from the Arkansas valley in Colo rado sold at the top.

Need Rangers Badly

Hon. E. s. Clark. attorney for the Live Stock Sanitary Board, was in Flagstaff Tuesday. He was on his way to Winslow in connection with the Marley case.
 Mir. Clark states that since the last legislature saw fit, in spirit oi vengeance, to abolish the terri torial ranger force, cattle stealing has become epidemic from one end of the territory to the other. Thousands upon thousands of dol lars have been lost through thieves who started their nefarious work as soon as they learned that the open ranges were unprotected.
