where their trunks are. He hasn't the
fear of leaving her behind him. She
can work side by side, shoulder to

There is much to commend the mar

fession, but much to discourage it
with the beautiful girl who fell in love
with him at first sight-and must be
left to her own devices to find pleas

Arizona.

The Santa Rita country is shipping
rich copper-silver ore.
Shipments of ore from the Arizona
Commercial are nearing the 200-tons
a day mark.
The Ray Consolidated Copper Com
pany has issued its annual statement,
covering operations in 1914. 1t gives
total ore milled at 2,427,700 tons or
6,651 tons a day as compared with g..
365,296 tons in 1918.
The action on the part of the three
leading producers of the Warren dis

ployes in proportion to the metal
market, is fully indicative Of the gen.

ed to patch up their differences and
coax them together. Effecting a re-
conciliation between them is not by
any means the game such girl plays.
She is more apt to pretend to SYM
pathize with the girl who is sobbing
out her grief on her bosom, but while
coddling and caressing her, whisper
in her ear that the only way to bring
such an Indifferent fellow to his senses
is to encourage another beau to call
and take her out.
There are young women foolish
enough to follow this rash counsel
and rue it all the days of their after
life. To the detected lover the false
friend will say, with sigh. 1T seems
she longed for other hearts to con-
quer. You were not appreciated.

licitude is half won over. He turns to
grateful to her for her womanly kind
liness in his wretched hour of heart
ache and need.
Once established firmly as a wedge
between them, the sweethearts are
kept safely apart and it ends as all
such affairs are pretty apt to do-the
girl who has come between the sweet
hearts and has succeeded in effectu-
ally parting them catches, by adroit-
ness, the mans heart in the rebound.
The veneer which conceals treach-
cry soon wears off. Let a man once
become aware that he has been clev-
erly duped by designing woman and
his respect for her and his affection as
well instantly take wing never to re-
turn. The girls that would come be-
tween fond lovers for the purpose of
separating them are more numerous
than is generally supposed. During
the engagement period, a girl may
drop for awhile her girl chum for the
society of the one nearer and dearer
than all others without disrupting
girlish friendship for all time. If a
girl cannot attract a beau on her own
account, she should have sufficient
heart and conscience not to meddle
with another girls love affair.
