A millionaire said in the restaurant of the Waldorf-Astoria:
 T orce spent Washington's birth day with Henry M. Flagler in his mag nificent Florida residence. As we took our coffee, after luncheon, under a palm in his Palm Beach garden, MT Flagler praised George Washington's truthfulness.
 He said we didn't now draw the same sharp line between truth and falsehood that Washington drew. He said a school teacher once requested those children who had never told a lie to raise their hands.
 After doubtful pause two or three little hands went up. Then an- other hand was raised and lowered uncertainty, and it's small owner asked:
 Teacher, is it a lie if nobody finds 1t out?'"

A German-American Beverage

This we know. Good, wholesome bottled beer has place on the American table.
 The American people have been recogni .ing this fact from year to year, much more than in the past.
 It has been matter of education. None knows better than the sturdy German the strength and health building properties of beer. The American people have come into their own.
 It is a fact worthy of note that the Blatz products, of Milwaukee, have for sixty years held fast to popularity, in all localities where they are represented.
 The reason. is plain
 Blatz beers are brewed along original lines, always always possessed of character, and pro- nounced individuality.
 The greatest tribute to the Blatz products is the demand for them in all localities where they are distrib- uted
 The Blatz products are repre- sented in this locality by Taylor & Edgington, of Williams, Arizona, who are the wholesale distribu- tors. 7-2O-3t

There will be conventions for con- ference, but never again national convention for nomination. The people will no longer delegate that power. They will nominate the presidents.

If the thirteen states in Santa Fe territory were isolated from the rest of the world. the Inhabitants would lack neither necessities nor luxuries in all the time to come, for in this section everything that man kind desires is produced in abund- ance. The Great Southwest in which the Santa Fe lines run in- clude Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kan sas, Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana, Nebraska, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, California and Nevada, territory in the course of develop ment, much of it in it's infancy, as it Were. The fertility of the soil, the rich mineral deposits, the vast forests and other natural resources, attract people and capital, because in the southwest is re- garded as safe. While the growth of the country has been rapid, the several states have been compara- lively free from a boom. The growth has been steady and nat ural. The progress made in every line of industrial activity has had a substantial basis. In other words, to use an American phrase in it's most literal sense, the southwest lis there with the goods" The manu- featuring industries in the thirteen states served by the Santa Fe have incr' ased in number and output more than Hooper cent in ten years. All the states except two produce lumber for the market. Two of the states are coal producers. Pe- troleum and natural gas are found in nine. The wool industry is inn portant in twelve. Stone for the market is produced in four, salt in four, lead and zinc in seven, gyp- sum in eight, lime in three, cement in nine, sand and gravel in ten, clay in eight, precious metals in six, copper in five, iron in six, the fishing industry is extensive in six,

Get An Old Sol Jag Chean.

Prof. William M. Coplin of the Jefferson Medical college, and for mer director of health of this city. says science has discarded the saloon as the 'sjag producer" revealing a new form of intoxication said to be far superior to the old species and as fully effective.
 Prof. Coplin calls the new form of jag Nheat intoxication," and he predicts that It will take the place of the ordinary kind produced by liquor.
 If the physician is correct the swinging doors will no longer swing for the thirsty, for all that man will have to do when he wants to Ego out on a toot'' will be to go out in the sun and become intoxicated by old sol. This form of intoxica- tion is hard to distinguish from the alcoholic kind, says Dr. Coplin, and it is much cheaper.

At one time when I was on the
 range" said Abe Peters, "there was
 man in the camp who had never took a bath. He told me one day
 that the last time he was in the
 water was when he slipped off a footlog and fell in the creek when
 he was 7 years old. A scale of dirt
 had accumulated on his head that was over ? inches thick. One night while he was asleep we sowed his head with alfalfa seed and narrowed 1t witha comb. He never discov- cred what had happened until the seed started and a heavy growth of alfalfa started all over his head. As he never washed anyway we persuaded him to just let the al- falfa grow. It made a fine growth as there was enough precipitation to keep 1t irrigated. The first crop blossomed in May. The smell of the alfalfa in bloom neutralized the other smell the man carried around and while he looked sort of queer with two foot crop of hay growing on his head he smells a lot better than he had done in his life be- fore. We harvested four crops of hay off his head that season and put of the last crop threshed quart )f fine alfalfa seed. D
