in putting on my new clothes, includ-
ing my furs, and then turning round

myself in a mirror. | was doing this
while my mother was telling me 10

prayer stool which she used as n
desk, to make a copy of the address
for my letters
Then | noticed that the first line of
her superscripton, Mrs Daniel
O'Neill," was blurred by the tears
that were dro pping from her eyes,
and my throat began to hurt me
dreadfuny. But remembered what
Father Dan had told me to'do, SO l
said:
Never mind, mamma. Don't wor-
ry-Pll be home for the holidays"
Soon afterward we heard the car
riage wheels passing under the win
COW. and then Father Dan came up in
a white knitted muffler, and with a
funny bag which he used for his sur
plice at funerals, and said through a
little cloud of white breath, that ev-
erything was ready.
| saw that my mother was turning
round taking out her pocket handker-
chief, but at sign from Father Dan,
who was standing at the threshold

and cried;

strange low voice. and turned and

beautiful pale face all broken up, and
her arms held out to me-
Then rushed back to her. and she
clasped me to her breast. crying.
"Mally veen, My Mally veen!" and

her dress and hear the husky rattle
in her throat and then all our poor

Hints for the
Household

Powder the insides of new g,ovas
to make them easier to slip on and
also, in the case of colored kid onos
to prevent the dye from staining tho
hands.
Don't throw away squeezed lanon.
but use them for cleaning. Dip them
into fine whitening, and they are in.
valuable for brass or copper.
To stop hiccough, give the patien,
a teaspoonful of granulated sugar and
vinegar. If this does not afford in.
slant relief, repeat the dose.
A quickly made glue which is very
strong is made by rubbing a little
piece of cold boiled potato on shea,
of paper with the fingers.
Scorch marks on linen may be re-
moved by rubbing with a fresh cut
onion, the garment being afterward
soaked in cold water.
If you want to heat a fiatiron in
your room, a tin plate over the gas
jet will enable you to heat the iron
twice as quickly.
Before blanching almonds. soak
them for two or three minutes in
boiling water; the skin will then sin
off quite easily.
little ground almonds mixed
through fruit cake will prevent the
fruit from sinking to the bottom.

bad as the bad women in the Bible"
MY gracious!" said Aunt Bridget
and she tried to laugh but l could
see that her face became as white as
whitewashed wall This did not
trouble me in the least until | reached
the carriage when Father Dan, who
/ was sitting inside, said
My little Mary won't leave home
like that-without kissing her aunt
and saying goodbye to her cousins"
So I returned and shook hands
with Messy Macleod and Betsy
Beauty, and lifted my little face to
my Aunt Bridget
That's better" she said after she
aad kissed me, but when | had passed
her my quick little ear caught the
words:
Good thing she's going. though"
During this time my father with
the morning mist playing like boar
frost about his iron gray hair. had
been tramping the gravel and saying
the horses were getting cold, so with
out more ado he bundled me into the
carriage and banged the door on me-
Martin Gift.
But hardly had we started when
Father Dan. who was blinking his
little eyes and pretending to blow his
nose on his colored print handker-
chief said Look" and pointed up
to my mothers room.
There she was again, waving and
kissing her hand to me through her
open window. and she continued to
do so until we swirled round some
trees and lost the sight of her.
What happened in my mothers
room when her window was closed |

that. creeping into corner of the
carriage, I forgot all about the glory

THE TARIFF AND SUGAR

Under the stimulus of the reduced
tariff, consumption of sugar in the
States of the East alone has increased
practically 20 per cent To be ex-
act, the consumption of sugar from
March l to June 19 in the territory
above mentioned was $3.50 tons
in 1914, as compared with 748,OOO
tons in 1918. Thus the increase in
consumption of sugar in those States
has been $4,000 tons. This is one
of the results of democratic rule.
The saving to the consumer by TAX
ing the duty off of sugar is .5Sl
cents per pound, which figured on
the amount of sugar consumed in
the United States last year, namely,
1884, ,63l, 1860 pounds, would be equal
to $48.714,7Os.

penitentiary seventy-one convicts, all

Brewery Gulch. She has now in the
insane asylum LOG inmates. She
does not even pay her own criminal
expense, but Apache county, with
but one convict, and Graham county,
with but three convicts, have to
help pay the expense of maintaining
that hell-hole called Brewery Gulch.

BIG LAND CANCELLATION

Three million acres-the largest
tract ever involved similarly in Ari-
zona--were excluded from the en-
larged homestead realms by an Or
der of the Interior Department,
July 2Sth. The cancellation is the
largest ever made over Arizona
lands, and one of the largest in the
history of the public land office.
10 be exact. there were 2,97l ,522
acres involved. Originally designa-
ted as tracts upon which enlarged
hOmesteads might be entered, this
land was discovered unsuitable for
such entry and the cancellation
issued.
The tracts are scattered all over
the State, and are mostly in the vi
cinity of Indian reservations or for
est reserves. Four hundred town
ships ard five thousand sections are
involved in the immense and sweep
ing order.
The cancellation" order does not
act as a withdrawal, so that the 100
acre sized homesteads may still be
filed upon it.

THEY NEVER DIE

The pure. the bright, the beautiful,
That stirred our hearts in youth;
The impulses of wordless prayer,
The streams of love and truth;
The longing after something lost,
The spirits yearning cry,
The striving after better hopes
These things can never die.
The timid hand stretched forth to aid
A brother in his need;
A kindly word in grief's dark hour
That proves a friend, indeed;
The plea for mercy softly breathed,
When justice threatens high;
The sorrow of a contrite heart
These things shall never die.
The cruel and the bitter word,
That wounded as it fell;
The chilling want of sympathy
We feel but never tell;
The hard repulse that chillS the heart
Whose hopes are bounding high
In an unfading record kept
These things shall never die.
Let nothing pass, for every hand
Must find some work to do;
Lose not chance to waken love
Be firm, and just, and true;
So shall light that cannot fade
Beam on thee from on high,
And angel voices say to thee
These things shall never die"

Fruits and Vegetables Wanted

To refill our display jars and to
make up new samples, | want all the
fine big specimens of fruit and
vegetables you can get. Bring them
to Cooper's Drug Store in Stafford
just across from Browns store.
Mr.. Cooper, an expert druggist,
who has had much experience with
formaldehyde and fruits, has given
his service to the county and will
fill these jars if we bring him the
specimens. From five to eight pounds
is about the right amount of fruit
for one jar. Always pick the fruit
with a stem.
Let US show the stranger who
comes to visit US in the winter sea-
son when all the orchards are DOR
mant, that we have as good fruits
as can be grown.

Summer Constipation Dangerous

Constipation in summer time is
more dangerous than in the fall.
winter or spring. The food you eat
is often contaminated and is more
likely to ferment in your stomach.
Then you are apt to drink much
cold water during the hot weather,
thus injuring your stomach. Collie,
fever, ptomaine poisoning and other
ills are natural results. Po-Do-Lax
will keep you well, as it increases
the bile, the natural laxative, which
rids the bowels of the congested
poisonous waste. Po-Do-Lax will
make you feel better. Pleasant and

In the wool manufacturing in.
dustry, the same as with the wool
growers, it is now conceded that
the tariff, instead of proving de
structive, is having very little effect

in profits or dividends, and with as
surances of continued prosperity,
there has been several noticeable

MAILING LIST FOR SALE

The Kentucky Distiller's Distrlbut
ing Company, of Kansas City, Mo-,
deciding to discontinue business on
January | of this year, wrote letter
December 8, 1913, to the Keeley
Institute at Dwight, H., Offering its
mailing list for sale. The letter be-
gan: "GentIemen-Our customers
are your prospective patients. We
can put on your desk mailing list of
over fifty thousand individual con-
sumers of liquor. This list is the
result of thousands of dollars of
advertising. Each individual on the
list is regular consumer of liquor.
The list of names is now live and
active. We know because we have
circularized it regularly. We will
furnish this list in quantities at the
prices listed below" The same
letter was sent to the.Neal Institute,
Chicago (another liquor cure estab-
lishment), which later received a
follow.up letter dated December 20,
containing the following paragraph:
We know that you can make our
list exceptionally productive to you.
Each man on it has been a regular
buyer of liquor by mail and con-
slant user of it, and there is not
single one who would not like to
quit the habit. Each man is keenly
alive to the injury of his practice,
and he is only awaiting some way of
stopping. If you can convince him
of the permanent efficacy of your
treatment he is your patient, and
you know how to convince him"

ing daily accessions and whose cause
