ARIZONA

a special allotment has now been made to provide for fighting the rabies.
 | The disease first appeared in parts of eastern Orseon and Washington and Northern Idaho, in a region sur rounded by nAtural barriers which tended to conf1ne the outbreak. Do- mestic animals and human beings were bitten, and a good deal of alarm was manifested by residents of the infected districts, many of whom feared for the safety of their child ren on the roals to and from school The disease is now reported as hav- ing extended into Northern Nevada and Northern California, whence it may easily be carried far.
 The Forest Service, the Biological Survey, and the State Board of Health are working together to meet the situation in California Modoc and Lsasen counties have been put under quarantine by the State Board, which has appointed forest rangers in Modoc county. Funds have been provided by the Biological Survey for the employment of additional men and the purchase of traps and poison.
 The public will be enlisted in the campaign, which will be led by the Biological Survey officials and the Forest rangers.

GOVERNMENT TO FIGHT
 RABIES IN FAR WEST

The Department of Agriculture is taking action through the Biological Survey and the Forest Service, to combat a serious wave of rabies in lection of wild and domestic animals that is in danger of becoming wide spread in the far West. The fact that the extensive dissemination of the disease is taking place through the agency of coyotes makes the situ- ation a difficult one to meet.
 Outbreaks of rabies among coyotes have been noted from time to time
 for several years in parts of Wash ington, Oregon, and Northern Idaho, and the Forest Service undertook last year to aid in bringing the disease under control by employing hunters to make war on coyotes in the Ma tional Forests of some infected locali- ties. Since, however, the coyotes breed in the foothills and around the outskirts of the Forests, more con- prehensive campaign is called for.
 The eradication of coyotes in sparsely settled or rough country is said to be an exceedingly difficult task. Inasmuch as these animals are always a source of considerable losses to the livestock industry of the West, Congress last year provid- ed special fund of $125,O0O to be spent by the Biological Survey for the eradication of predatory animals both in the Nati9nal Forests and on the public domain, and from this fund

On Tuesday night a perfect gale blew all night accompanied by rain which turned to a misty snow by Wednesday after noon. A warm sun at noon on Thurs day put the snow in excellent shape for throwing, and the youngsters re- corded many a hit on unsuspecting ones.

One kind act that has always been so noticeable each year, and we fear it will not occur this year, is the free gifts of candy to the Mexican child ren by the Morenci Club management on Christmas Day. This small mite of candy has always been a delight to the youngsters and the gift had grown to some proportions when hundreds of children were given a box each on last Christmas day.
 Conditions are of such a character here at the present time that the prosperity enjoyed by people all over the United States seems a joke

A hat box of strong cardboard and
some red, white and green Water-color
paints are required to make this doll S
house. A view Of it is given in the
picture above, also a picture of the
roof and of the front and one side.
The roof and chimneys are to be made
separately.
Two large, square openings are cut
out at the front and above them an
Oblong is cut on three sides. Bent
outward this forms an awning that is
painted in red and white stripes. A
door is cut in the side and panels and
doorknobs painted on it. Openings
are cut in the roof to hold the Chin
neys and it is painted in green squares
to simulate shingles.
The house and chimneys are paint
ed red lined with white to simulate
bricks. White paper pasted over the
windows will look like a shade After

stood, Was Not a Thing to Be
Wildly Advertised.

Smythe's mistake, which is de-
scribed in an English contemporary,
must have been disconcerting, to say
the least.
You'll ind your bath in the out
'ouse"
Thus he had been directed the night
before at the little inn where he was
stopping, and that is why he was now
in his dressing gown, pushing open the
clubhouse door. 1t was dark, but
there was the tub, and it would do.
He hoped in. In the middle of his
additions the red-faced landlord thrust
his head in at the door. In the dim
light he failed to see the man in he
tub.
Water quite nicely warm, thanks, .
observed Smythe, but it's trifie
muddy"
Muddy he hanged" roared the
landlord, bursting in suddenly. Your
tubs in the next place. Git out of it,
you blitherin' idiot! Not a word OF
this in the 'ouse! That's my 'ome-
brewed ale you're a-washin' in"

Salmon Thrive In Maine.

Success has been met by the bu-
teau of fisheries in establishing hump
back salmon on the Maine coast, ac-
cording to reports from that terri
tory. The fish were planted in Febru-
airy, 1914 Many fish weighing five
TO seven and half pounds have been
taken or seen in Penobscot river, Me-,
and twenty were captured alive by
agents Of the bureau near Bangor and
held in an effort to obtain ripe eggs.
From two of these fish 5000 eggs were
taken September 8, and, after fertili-
cation, sent 10 the Craig Brook hatch
cry for incubation. Local fishermen
paught and ate large numbers, and an
employee of the Green Lake hatchery
took fifteen fish last week. These had
passed through the flshways in dams
In Dennys river and were dropping
down stream in spent condition; at
the same time both live and dead fish
were observed below the dams.

TURN OVER TIME
When Nature Hints About the Food.

When there's no relish to food and
all that one eats doesn't seem to do
any good then is the time to make
turnover in the diet, for that's Ma
lures way Of dropping hint that the
food isn't the kind required.
For a number of years / followed
railroad work, much Of it being office
work Of a trying nature. Meal times
were our busiest; and eating too much
and too quickly Of food such as is
commonly served in hotels and res
taurants, together with the sedentary
habits. were not long in giving me dys-
pepsia and stomach trouble which re-
duced my weight from 205 to 100
pounds.
There was little relish in any food
and none of it seemed to do me any
good. 1t seemed the more l ate the
poorer l got and was always hungry
before another meal, no matter how
much / had eaten.
Then l commenced a. trial of Grape
Nuts food, and was surprised how a
small saucer of it would carry me
6lOuSy SLIOuS, anu Win 0dIA0AC0 hPPO-
tite, until the next meal, with no SEN
sations of hunger, weakness or dis
tress as before.
IT have been following this diet now
for several months and my improve
ment has been so great all the others
in my family have taken up the use
Of Grape-Nuts with complete satisfac-
ton and much Improvement in health.
Most people eat hurriedly, have
lots of worry, thus hindering digestion
and therefore need food that is pre-
digested and concentrated in nourish'
ment"

Animals, that please the little ones,
are made of canton flannel or plush,
and stuffed with sawdust. Pins with
black heads, beads, or regulation arti-
fetal eyes are used, and bits of
lambs wool or fur provide the re-
CURED hair. A dog and pony are pic
tured here, made of white canton fan
mel, also outlines of patterns for cut
ting them. Each animal is made of
three pieces; the two sides and a
piece to be sewed underneath. This
last has a slit in it for turning the
figure right side out after the pieces
are machine stitched together. After
1t is stuffed this opening is sewed up.
Almost any animal may be made in
this way.

Thought Umbrellas UnniIitary.

Umbrellas and khaki seem a most
unlikely combination; yet one in
stance is recorded of British soldiers
taking their umbrellas into action, &C
cordipg to the London Chronicle. On
December 10, 1913, during the battle of
the Nive, the Grenadier guards cap
tured redoubt outside Bayonne.
While they were in possession of this
Wellington passed by and noticed that
the officers had umbrellas up to pro-
tect themselves from the heavy rain.
He sent back his aide-de-camp,
Lord Arthur Hill, to tell them that
the duke does not approve of the use
of umbrellas in action. The guards
officers may, If they pleace, carry UNI
brellas even in uniform when on duty
at st. James; but in the field it is not
only ridiculous, but unmilitary."

rose buds that are embroidered on
them with silk floss.

with cotton for padding and over
this light satin ribbon is shirred. The
hook is wound with the ribbon and
the hanger finished with pretty bow.

A FRESH EUROPEAN HORROR

As though enough suffering and loss of human
life has not been visited upon Europe through the
deliberate plans of mems mind, horrible earth
quake disaster in the making of which men had
no part has fallen upon wide area of Italy and
taken a toll of thousands of lives
Italy thus far has remained neutral in the great
European war but even seems TO have failed to
escape from horrors which in many forms have
been visited upon the European continent in the
last SIX months Even Italy though she has taken no
sides in the great has suffered from its effects
have other neutral natons-even the United
States,-and is thus made less able to relieve the
distress that has fallen her people as the result
Of the disaster of yesterday.
Truly these times that try men souls Human
endurance is put to the test as seldom before in
the history of the world. Yet under the stress of
calamity following close upon calamity those who
survive are showing wonderful fortitude and a
marvellous ability to rise above the distressing cir
cumstanceS that surround them on all sides. and to
lend aid to those who suffer most
Despite the heavy drain that has been made on
the resources of charitable persons of America who
have done and still doing so much for the aid
of the distressed in the European war; we believe
we can say with assurance that if Italy finds it nee
essary to look to this country for relief from the
results of yesterday S disaster she will not look
in vain.
