POWDER FOR THE BRUNETTE
Detail That Must Be Kept In Mind,
or Unsatisfactory Results Are
Assured.

If your complexion is a brunette
tint do not make the mistake of ap-
plying a white powder 1t is plainly
visible against the darker skin, giving
a fragrant made up" look to the en-
tire face Powder is obtainable In
several flesh and ivory shades.
First apply a good cold cream, then
dust on the powder, rubbing 1t well
in with a soft cloth or piece Of ab-
sorbent cotton. Be careful to have
the powder evenly distributed, max.
ing certain it extends behind the ears
to the back of the neck and well down
on the throat. Brush the eyebrows
and eyelashes to remove all traces Of
powder and see that none remains in
the edges Of the hair.

BOY GIVEN FORTUNE

panionship. and young Northrip, young,
happy and kind-hearted, began four
years ago
Burge had lived alone for Is years,
deserted by friends and relatives Or
ris, nine years old. became his friend
and daily caller at the lonely house.
Burge seemed TO appreciate the novel
companionship and would read to Or
ris for hours at time.
Burge became unable to work about
two years ago, and soon after that he
was confined to his bed by an acute
attack OF dropsy. While he was help
less Orris called even more frequently
than before.
Three weeks before Burgess death,
February 2S, 1911, Orris quit school
and gave his entire time to his invalid
friend, sleeping at the old mans lone
ly home and arising at all hours In the
night to give him medicine and In the
daytime preparing food for the ailing
man.
After his death the house was ran
sacked and enough gold and currency
found to fill half-peck measure,
Orris, who had so faithfully cared
for his friend, was kept out OF the
home he knew so well, while every
nook and corner that might hide val

DEER FIGHTS WITH COYOTES
Unusual Battle Ends In Death Of the
Brave Doe on Ranch Near San
Rafael, Cal.

San Rafael, Cal.-A fierce and un-
usual battle between a large doe and
two coyotes which finally ended when
the doe was pulled down, was wit
messed by M. s. Freitas, a wealthy
rancher, on the hills of his Lucas val
ley ranch, north of this place recently.
The battle occupied less than ten
minutes and by the time Freitas
reached the scene the doe was dead.
Freitas Immediately sent word to
Superintendent Jones Of the Marin
county poor farm, near by, but when
the latter arrived armed with rife

The doe weighed 120 pounds.

Turks viii Spend $4,000 to Irrigate
Mesopotamla Lands Into AerieuI.
turaI Paradise.

London, England.-The plans for
turning the desert regions Of Mesopo-
tamia into an agricultural paradise are
being pushed by the Turkish govern
ment in spite Of its external troubles.
The irrigation scheme which origlnat-
ed in the brain of Sir William Will
cocks will involve the expenditure Of
S150,0O0, 900 before 1t is complete. The
dam which is to control the food wa
terx of the River Euphrates is under
construction by a British company and
the Turkish government is anxious to
proceed with the initial stages of the
irrigation works.
Success of the plan will enable
enough grain to be grown to affect the
cereal markets of the world. In an
cient times the whole Of the Eu-
pirates delta was irrigated and the
rank growth of grain excited the won
der of Greek travellers. According to
Herodotus, the land yielded three hun
dredfold, and there is no doubt that at
the time of the Greek historians visit
the delta was the chief granary of the
world. If tradation can be relied upon,
its fertility was of even greater an
tiquity, for 1t was here that popular
belief located the Garden of Eden. It
is a matter Of history, however, that
from the delta wheat, found here in
its wild and uncultivated state, was
taken and gradually transplanted all
over the world.

BRYAN FIGHTING.

While w. ]. Bryan was over re-
porting the Republican national con-
vention at Chicago the Democrats at
Baltimore under the direct Leadership
of Chlirman Mack undertook to score
one on him, but they found that the
Nebraskan is too old a hand at the
business to be fooled in such a man
ner. The New York Democrats know
that Bryan is power in the party
and that he has an idea of what should
be in the national platform. They
thought that they would name Parker,
n conservative, for temporary chair
man without advising with Bryan and
that he would not object "in the in
terest of harmony and that Parker
would sound the keynote of the Dem
ocratic platform and that the creden-
tials and platform committees could
be named in harmony with the chair
man and his keynote speech, and that
everything would work in harmony
for conservative platform. But that
hero Of many conventions was not to
be white washed in such manner. He
at once requested the candidates for
president to assist him in opposing
this program. All but Governor Will
son declined to assist. Bryan left
Chicago for Baltimore. He notified
them that he was ready to fight any
plan to overthrow progressive plat
form and that he would oppose Par
ker. A committee was appointed to
bring Parker and Bryan together
That committee has failed and we
have Bryan's word for it that he will
be a candidate for chairman against
Parker.

POSITIVE PROOF
Should Convince the Greatest Skeptic

Testimony easily Investigated,
The strongest endorsement of merit.
The best proof. Read it:
Louis Johnson, 457 Third avenue,
Durango, Colo, says: "a number of
years ago | had trouble from my back
and kidneys, due to the jarring l re-
ceived on the engine. / was treated
by a doctor, but his medicine made
me worse. My back was so lame and
painful that could not stoop or lift.
! finally recovered enough to resume
work, but l was subject to attacks of
pain in my back and was caused an
noyance by too frequent passages of
the kidney secretions. At night had
to get up several times, owing to this
weakness and my rest was broken.
When | heard of Doan's Kidney Pills,
l procured a supply at G. E. Tiffany
Jr.'s Drug Store and took them as di-
rected. My condition improved and
my back is now strong" (Statemen.

BIGGEST CROP ON RECORD.

An Enterprise representative inter-
viewed p. b. McAtee this week and
found him bubbling over with en-
thusiasm over the outlook tor San
Juan county this fall. Mr.. MsAtee
says that we do not realize what an
enormous crop we will have, for it
is bigger by far than any preceding
year. Many acres of new orchard are
just coming into bearing this year and
the increase will be greatly noticca-
BILE from now on.
So great is Mr.. McAtee's faith in
our county that he had made up his
mind, if there had been failure Of
fruit this year or any other occur
renee which would tend to lower the
price of land, he would invest all his
spare cash with US, and he is already
interested here to quite an extent.
However we believe that the days Of
the fruit failure are past. Our grow
ers learned this spring that smudg-
ing will protect their fruit and it
is not likely that enough Of them will
ever be caught mapping again to make
a complete failure.
Mr.. McAtee has been all over tne
county making an estimate of tho
probable number of cars which will
be needed TO move the crop and while
he has not yet completed this work
he has gone far enough to make a
rough estimate. He finds conditions
all over the county on the upward
trend. Not only is the fruit in ex-
cellent shape, but grain and hay and
all other crops are doing exceeding
ly well and it will be bumper year
all around. Up in the mining country
new strikes and renewed activities in
mining circles will have salutary
effect on this section.
Mr.. McAtee emphasizes the neces-
sity OF the growers in making prepa-
rations to handle the big crops this
fall. Every grower should know be-
fore the irst of July who is going to
hanoie his fiuit for him and should
also have made arrangements for the
necessary box material and the labor
to handle the crop. The railroad, said
Mr.. McAtee, will haul the fruit out all
right, so that If the growers are wide
awake at this end they will come out
all right on the other. Mr.. McAtee
anticipates a good price for peaches
this year due to the failure Of the
crops in other sections. Apples may
not bring as good price as usual,
but the superior quality Of our fruit
will insure the growers good net re-
turns anyway.-Farmington Enter

EARL WALCON OF ARRIOLA
is ACCIDENTALLY KILLED

Information was received here yes.
terday evening to the effect that O
young man named Earl Walcon, who
lived on a ranch near Arriola, Colo.
while out riding with a lady FRIEND
accidentally shot himself.
However, the young man did not
believe that he shot himself, but
thought some one else had shot him
He had fired his revolver at some OBJ
ject and his team scared and started
to run. His revolver fell in his eff
fort to hold his horses and struck
upon some part Of the buggy in such
a way that the gun was exploded.
The bullet entered his right breast
and passed almost through his body.
He lived for one hour and half after
he was shot.
He was a young man, 26 years of
age, and has a homestead near Ar
riola. His body will be shipped to
Bellingham, Wash, his former home,
for burial.

SOME POLITICIAN.

From all appearances that Mis-
sourian is n pretty smooth politician
himself. Throughout the campaign he
has kept out of sight SO far as a
platform is concerned. Harmon and
Underwood have both declared for a
conservative platform and everybody
knows whore they stand. Governor
Wilson has ccme out on Bryan
platform and everybody knows where
he stands. Clark has kept silent and
not man can tell you exactly where
he stands today. They must take his
past record in order to get an idea
Of where ke stands on the issues Of
the day. lie is playing in the big
field between Wilson and Harmon, but
the time having come when it became
necessary to show his hand he at once
New York machine and thus secure
that desirable ninety delegates belong
ing to Boss Murphy. Clark allowed
the people all over the west in the
progressive section to instruct for him
before he made any attempt to join
Murphy's machine, This was great
move on the part of the Missourian
and may land him the nomination.
Should this plan be carried out and
Clark nominated thereby he no doubt
will lose the support in November of
many of the followers of Wilson and
Bryan. This seems to be the age of
aggression. One is either forced to
be a conservative or a progressive If
he comes before the people asking for
their votes.
