I Arizona desert territory through which
the Southern Pacific passes. As re-
suit the company is, and has been able
for some time, to provide school privi-

the desert, regardless of their race or

and the educational privileges are be-

Before the Southern Pacific took an
active interest in the welfare of its
men in the cactus county, because of
sparse population and isolation there
were no school facilities on many of
the sections and there were not enough
residents in the communities to make
it possible to obtain funds to put up
suitable buildings To send the chill.

WhV' Tolerate Catarrh?

You have noticed, no doubt, that any
cold aggravates nasal catarrh, and the
flow of mucous amazes you that such
Objectionable matter could find lodg
ment in your head. To ignore this
catarrh when the cold subsidies is
wrong because it continues to slowly
injure the delicate Innings Of the nasal
passages and clog them up.
To correct catarYh, cleanse the nos
trils frequently with solution ofwm
water and salt, insert vasehne on re-
firing, and take a spoonful Of SCOTS
Emulsion after meals for one month.
Scott's acts through the blood to feed
the tissues, and contains soothing
glycerine to check the Inflammation

X * 4 y = y * * x y = x = y

Daniel j. Fry, the popular druggist,
has been in the drug business long
enough to have his own opinion of the
best way of selling medicines He says
the plan adopted by Mi-o-na, the great
dyspepsia remedy, is the fairest he has
ever heard of. He doesn't believe that
medicine ought to be paid for unless
it does the user some good. And Mi.o-
ma is sold under positive guarantee
to relieve dyspepsia or to refund the
money You simply leave 80 cents on
deposit with Daniel j. Fry and if, after
you have used the box of Mi-o-na you
decide that it has done you no good, all
you have to do is to tell him so and he
will return your money.
Hundreds of people have been relieved
of stomach agonies by using this re-
markable remedy. 1t is not simply
food digester; it is a medicine that puts
all of the digestive organs into normal
condition and gives ruddy, glowing, Wig
orous health. A change for the better
will be seen after the first few doses
of Mi-o-na, and its continued use will
SUM give Uhe power 10 cat anything at
any time and not suffer distress after

Mi-o-na is sold under positive guar
antee to refund the money if it does
not cure. This is the strongest proof
that can be offered as to the merit of
the medicine.

Parents Neglect To
Visit the Schools

Parents were not especially busy dur
ing the past month in visiting the pub
lie schools, as the monthly report lust
issued by superintendent Elliott notes
the fact that not u parent had the time
or interest to make school visit, al
though other people did make a few
calls to the number Of l6.
But while they are not visiting the
schools, evidently the parents have de.
cided that the boys must all have prop
er school training, as out of total at
tendance OF 1850, the girls are only 81
in the majority. Statistics show that
few years ago, the girls greatly out
numbered the boys, especially in the
upper grades. Now the higher classes
are almost equally divided, Between
the ages Of IA and 20, the attendance
is 91S, and the girls have only the
small majority of 90.
Under the age Of six years, no pupils
are enrolled. Between the ages Of six
and nine, the enrolment is 66i, with
the boys l2 in the majority. In the
grades where the children are between
nine and twelve, the girls have u ma.
iority of 10, in an attendance of 1871.
In the division Of ages between 10 AMI
II years, the boys are in minority of
only three, in total of 500. Superin.
tendent Elliott regards this large at.
tendance of boys in the upper grades as
especially satisfactory, showing tne de.
sire Of parents that the boys receive at
least II high school education.
