professor took his two assistants out
for a walk among the microbes and
bacteria Of Paris.
He took them for a walk along
the grand boulevsrds, the resort OF
the gayest Partisan butterflies OF
both sexes. He led them through a
great department store near the
Louvre, which was filled with wOTn-
en- representing every class OF Par
isian society. Then he took them
through the Louvre itself, which
happened TO contain at the moment
a fine assortment Of artists.
He steered them through Halles
Centrales, the markets which feed
practically the whole Of Paris. He
allowed them TO iOstle a crowd Of
factory girls coming out for lunch.
Finally he led them back. microbe

1t is well recognized that heavy
load OF bacterial infection is usually
needed to convey a disease. The In
lection Of the whiskered mans dis
ease was dangerous to q point that
under predisposing conditions would
be likely TO result fatally.
The clean-shaven mans kiss, on
the other hand, was so lightly
charged with infection that It was
practically innocuous.
The bacterial crop from the vhis-
kered mans kiss. after 1t had been
allowed to grow for four days in

had increased to a mass Of deadly
germs. which IL let loose might have
destroyed the entire population Of
Paris.
The result Of cultivating the BAG
terial crop from the clean-shaven
mans kiss was very different. From
the starting point the harmless nj
crobes predOminated so greatly over
the harmful ones that during the
process Of intensive cultivation they

study Of the two dishes He estimat-
ed that the space kissed amounted to

used TO collect the offspring Of the
clean-shsyen mans kiss. he counted
$4,000 microbes. which is practically
nothing, when We consider the
enormous prevalence Of microbes in
our common surroundings. The few
dangerous microbes among them
were present In such small quanti-
ties that they would hardly have
hurt any one.
Next he examined the crop COL
lected after the whiskered mans
kiss. In this he found upwards Of
0.OO0, 900 microbes of all kinds. or

NHoULD a girl kiss clean

This very delicate yet vitality i'm
portant question has been answered
scientifically and definitely by a
DISTINGUISHED Professor OF the Paris
Academy Of Medicine.
His experiment proves that II is
Just one hundred times as danger
Gus from a pathological point OF
view to kiss a mustached or whis-
kered man as a clean-shayen one.
Professor Durand decided that
this question, which has been much
discussed In a loose way, ought to
be settled scientifically. He secured
the services Of a young and healthy
woman, who was willing to submit
TO the experiment for the sake Of
science, and a couple Of doctors Of

The young woman was first thor.

He was the father Of modern

.PHONEY COIN

 ID GRAND JURY
$1, 800 Bonds in Case of Jose Villa; Wife Released on Own Recognizance;
 Ill-Health

Before Court Commissioner Taylor yesterday Jose Villa was held in sI,- 800 for counterfeiting and his wife was held to the federal grand jury but released on her own recognizance Ibecaqse of her physical condition. The evidence was in court with them and they had been caught with the goods. These are the pair who were arrested in Douglas last week by se- cret service officers while Villa held in his hands the moulds in which he had just poured hot metal. L. s. Attorney Morrison appeared for the prosecution at the hearing.
 The moulds in which the counter felt coins were made were crude at fairs but the coins made in them were remarkably good under the circum- stances. A piece of wagon tongue was taken and in this holes were drilled. In these were poured soft plaster of Paris. Before the plaster hardened half dollars, quarters, and 20 cent pieces, the latter Mexican currency were placed.
 When the plaster hardened the coins were removed and the moulds were left All that remained to be done was 10 pour in the metal, lot it harden and take it out in the shape of bogus coins. It was in the midst of this process that the secret service officers at Douglas broke into the house and made their arrests. It is enc of the clearest cases that ever was brought to light in Arizona.

Cochise county is likely to be well represented on the National eiecto. ral tickets of the three parties and will certainly be well represented at the primary election for each of these parties, the two old and the new will have up for choice a representative of Dear Old Cochise." Beyond this appears the fact that each of those three is from the Warren district, a fitting recognition of the importance of this section.
 As was stated yesterday in the Re- view F.. A. Toyrea has consented to stand as a member of the electoral college that will cast its vote for Wilson and Marshal following the election in November. But he is not alone among the various candidates whose petitions are being circulated There are two others whose petitions are being signed and whose names appear to be destined to appear upon their party tickets who hail from Co chise county and the Warren district although one of these is not frequent iy here although he retains his res idence at Bakeryille These two are Hoyal A. Smith and Captain John C. Greenway, both have petitions out.
 It is needless to say that Captain John C. Greenway is not standing as an elector on the republican ticket. In the preliminary skirmishes that preceded the battle between RUose- welt and Taft he made his position quite clear and he is nothing if not a progressive. Further than this Col. Roosevelt has no more ardent admir- CT or devoted friend than he.
 Hoval A. Smith is, of course. a re- publican. He has been firm in his adherence to the stand pat party for years and has been one of the leaders in Arizona. He has been of the fac. ton in his party that now remains

Opium Smuggler Suspect Arrested at St. David; Seized Dope Over
 Valued

In the county jail, awaiting a hear ing before Court Commissioner Fay Tor is a prisoner who gives his name as Fitzsimmons who was brought to Bis bee by Customs Inspector H. S. Creighton. The prisoner is charged with smuggling and his arrest is made in connection with D. D. Williams. formerly a Cananea conductor who is reported to have been caught with the goods on the coast. Fitzsimmons was arrested at the Williams home at St David which it is claimed was a smugglers resort.
 Speaking of the arrest on the coast of Williams. accounts of which were sent out from Los Angeles, Mir. Creigh- ton says that the value of the goods seized was exaggerated but not the importance of the capture of Williams which it is believed, together with the capture of FitZsimmons, will break up the gang of opium smugglers and end their illicit trading between Mex leo and the United States There were 220 cans of the contraband talk en and the value was very much less than $22,O0O.
 Opium such as that siezed by tho officials on the coast can be purchas- ed Mexico for s11.50 Mexican cur rency. If it could be taken to the high class places in this country direct it is said that it might net as high as $50 per can but the snug glers had to deal with the Chinese and it is thought they did not receive over SIS for the drug. This would make the value of the seizure some thing like $3S00 instead of over s22,- 900 as the Los Angeles accounts stated.

true to Taft, and the republicans of today are really the old guard of the past battles. Now they stand bat ting as a forlorn hope but this year their fire is to be directed not against their old time adversaries but against new enemy, the Tevolting element that was once their ally, once a part of their army. but now stands as new party avowedly against stand patism.
 It is not likely that either MT. Greenway or Mir. Smith will have any opposition at the primaries. Both are men who well deserve the support of their friends who are members of their parties and it is an honor to be even a nominee. But when it comes to a choice of electors it Is not a mat ter of voting for individuals. They are instructed to, in their turn, if elected, vote for certain presidential candidates and this the voters gen erally keep in mind. Arizona is nor. mally democratic and with the old republican minority party split into factions while the democracy is with out even an indication of a schism the result is not for a moment in doubt as to how the electoral vote will be cast. The race between Mir. Green way and Mir. Smith is for second place only.
 As to Mir Toyrea, he will receive the undivided support of the democ- racy in Cochise County and big ma jority will be rolled up for him here at the primary. In other sections he Ta E.E- hope and believe that they will have the opportunity to vote for him next November as well as at the primary. He is a democrat and there are no factions in the National democratic party which presents a solid front against its divided rival.
