MASQUERADE BALL
 IS SOCIAL SUCCESS
Ladies of Woodmen Circle Gave the People a Real Treat at K. of p.
 Hall, Tuesday Night.

The first masquerade ball of the present season was held at K. P. hall on Tuesday night, under the auspices of the Woodman Circle ladies. The Mesa orchestra of five pieces furn- ished the music. and the public gener- ally turned out to take part in the affair. There were a surprisingly large number of elegant costumes worn by the ladies. When the forty or fifty couples whirled over the floor to the music of a popular waltz, Che blending of cOlors was something to attract and please the eye. There were ladies in red, in blue, in green. in white. and in nearly every shade of the silk and satin makers art. The
 list of costumes worn would be tedi- ous to recount There were angels, nuns, queens of night, Indian maids, princesses, butterflies, Japanese la dies, ladies of cullah, COW girls, lit tie girls in blue, and a pair of twins in green. The gentlemen selected various characters, from the stately Don to a very weary Willie" There were several knights of the road, dudes.

But all were enjoying the dance, and the tramp tripped through the two- step and scOttasche with his arm around the waist of a grand dame dressed in silk
 Postmaster Newell had charge of the door and took in so much money that he had the feeling of a million aire. while a corps of Circle ladies looked after the wants of the guests and kept them supplied with delicious fruit punch. The dance lasted until past midnight and the dancers were not even then ready to quit. Finan- cially the dance was as much of a success as were the social features, and the lodge treasury is in condition to cause joy on the part of the mem berS

Bert also encloses a newspaper clip ping which is Illuminating, though perhaps disappointing to lot Of peo- pie who have been writing poetry about the forty eight stars on the flag According to this information  the two new ones will not be able to edge in until the fourth of July The clipping follows:
 Section 1792 of the Revised Statutes, which has been in force since April 4. ISIS, says:
 On the admission of a new state into the Union one star shall be add ed to the Union of the flag, and such addition shall take effect on the fourth day of July then net succeed ing such admission.
 Some time before the next fourth O: July the secretary of war will is sue a general order declaring that on and after July next the field of the flag shall consist of forty eight stars in stipulated number of rows, designating the number of stars in each row
 The order will also contain a dia gram showing the exact arrangement of the stars. The Navy department will issue a similar order for the navy. and the treasury and other de- partments will do likewise. There will be an executive order from the White House covering the use of official flags not covered by the various de- partment orders"

PURCHASED A FARM.

Judge R. A. Kingsbury has followed up his decision to remain a while in the Mesa country by purchasing a farm near town. He secured S3 acres adjoining the Holladay place under the Highland canal, and will proceed to improve it. The judge has recently interested some of the Mesa farmers in the question of growing COW peas for feed for stock. He says that on this land and in this climate three crops can be cut annually, and the yield per acre is enormous. It is probable that he will experiment to some extent with this crop on his new farm It is also said that experiments have shown that COW peas will choke out stand of either Bermuda or Johnson grass.

PlMPLES so DISFIGURING
HE STUNNED FRIENDS

81 was bothered with pimples and
blackheads in the worst way for over
four years. My face and arms were
completely covered with them. The
pimples would come out on my face
and tester all up. They would scab
over, and make my face sore. besides
being so disfiguring that l stunned
my friends. l tried facial cream
balms and benzoine with no effect.
"One night l asked a friend what
was good for pimples, and he advised
me to try Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
my face first with hot water and Cuti-
cura Soap, and then put on some Cuti-
cura Ointment, let it stay on five
minutes, and then wash my face again
with the Cuticura Soap. 1t would
draw the blackheads out as nice, and
the pimples, oh say, it was one grand
relief to go among my friends and be
Jolly again. After using two cakes OF
Cuticura Soap and two boxes of Cuti-
cura Ointment, my face is as smooth
as If there never had been pimple
on 1t. l cannot speak too highly of
the Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and
I hope others will profit by them as
much as / have l know they will
after giving them just one trial"
