WRITE HIM A NOTE.
Dear Miss Fairfax:

btdI MISS t III EeilA.
l am 20 and have been keeping
company for the past six months
with a young man three years my
senior. Now, this young man has
stopped calling very suddenly and
without an explanation. l love
him dearly, VIOLET.
He owes you an explanation with
out solicitation but, like many men,
reserves the right to sulk. Write,
asking him to call. If he doesn't call,
believe me. you are better off without
such lover for life with him would
be one long series of humiliating apol-
ogies for fancied wrongs

A Letter to
Mary
By FRANCES L. GARSIDE.

A CERTAIN little girl whose IA
~ ther is necessarily away from
home a great deal found the
following letter from him under her
plate this morning:
You ask my consent to your mar
riage with John. Since you were old
| enough to climb on my lap and whis-

SOME DOUBTS.
You know that he LIS rood looking,
is of pleasing manners, generous to a
fault with his money, and that you
love HIM. You will marry him and
go with him to a strange town, and
you do not know what his standing
in that town Is,
you do not know II he Is consid-
cred In his home town the Kind OF a
man a respectable girl cares to go
with; you do not know II he Is good
to his mother; n his business pros
| poets entitle him to assume the sap
| port of q wife.
You do not know what his habits
are. He may drink, gamble, loaf and
| be addicted to the company OF those
| who blaze the primrose path, but Of
| this you know nothing. You are not
| making as much effort TO learn some
thing of the character OF the man
who wants to be your partner for
| life as your mother makes in finding
out about the maid whose stay will
| not be longer than six months.
You know nothing whatever about
him, yet you are anxious to go
away from your comfortable home. to
| risk a leap in the dark, landing only

CRITICAL MOMENTS.
By Henry VanDyke,

Every moment of life is more or
less of turning point. Opportuni-
ties are swarming around us all the
time. We walk through a cloud of
chances, and If we were always con-
scious of them they would give us
cause for worry. But, happily, our
sense of uncertainty Is soothed and
cushioned by habit so that we can
live comfortable with it.

HEALTH NOTICE

A few days ago an inspection of the town was made by all of the town officials with the view of look ing into its sanitary condition and to see what steps should be taken toward making a cleaner and health fer Williams.
 In several of the alleys were found piles of manure that, with approaching warm weather, will be the breeding places for flies and other carriers of disease.
 These places are disgrace to the town and also a menace to the health of every citizen of the town.
 There were also found several places where there were open ves- sels that were never emptied, and these are also places where mos quitoes are bred, and as is well known these are not only a nuisance but also transmitters of certain dis eases. These must be emptied and all vessels that have to be used must be covered and kept that way.
 In other places there are piles of rubbish and refuse of various kinds that were allowed to remain un- touched for months at time and no lime or disinfectant was ever used to check the development of flies and other disease carrying in- Isects and bacteria.
 In other places the tin cans and boxes of various kinds were thrown promiscuously in back or front yards and in the alleys, and were an impeachment to travel through the alleys and an eyesore to any passerby.
 Therefore, it is hereby ordered by the city health officer, backed by the mayor and general council, that all places in the town where such conditions as stated above exist, shall be cleaned within a period of Ten Days, and if this is not done the marshal shall be ordered to serve notice on all delinquents and have them show cause before the proper authorities why they did not carry out this order.
 We should have pride enough to keep our town clean any but if that pride is lacking other means must be taken to see that the town is cleaned up.
 c. D. JEFFRIEs,
 50-4t City Health Officer.

IF Governor Hunt could banish a few little inconsequental tomtits- little mites that buzz around the Ford hotel and emit hot air about the governors greatness, the chief executive would stand higher in the estimation of real men. These screw worms pretend to represent the governor and are well known to be remittance men, both in brain and earning capacity. The public has come to the conclusion that if the governor cannot get anything bigger, and more capable than these little political outcasts, his political future is in precarious condition. We suggest to the governor that he deport some of these silly little boobies. T Arizona Democrat.

THE right of states to control their internal affairs has been upheld by the democratic party during the last hundred years. Yet we see the democratic leaders now trying to show California where it would be unwise to pass laws to prevent Jap anese from owning land in that state. If the treaty with Japan is such as to destroy the fundamental rights of the American states, then this treaty should be gotten rid of, as we do not believe that the Amer ican people will agree to have Japan or any other country objecting to the states regulating their internal affairs in their own way.
