Arizona. we regret to say, has
been maligned q story aud song;
it has been widely advertised as
q barren land, qualifying principal
ly as the home of the cactus and
the Gila Monster. We must admit
that cactas is to found in abundance
in certain portions of the state
but the enterprise of the people of
this great state could not be more
aptly illustrated than by presents
ing the fact that even the un-Bur-
banked variety is now being utik-
lied in the manufacture of candy
and gum. AS to the ella monsters
even here, in county named after
that interesting and much libeled
reptile, there are comparatively few
persons who ever saw one that was
not in captivity.

State Senator VIM. Riggs brought
up the question of the collection

Ecussion of which several took part.
Mr.. w. j. Bennett, of Benson, pro-
posed as the best method of secur-

them would know just what the
amounts were for, and would there
fore, no doubt, remit promptly.
His suggestion was agreed to

The Importance OF
Healthy Kidneys

In the removal of waste material from
the body, the kidneys are called upon to
perform a very important duty. The,
failure of these marvellous and delicately
constructed organs to properly do theiE
work means retention in the system of:
poisonous matter. This poisons the sys-
TEN, and if permitted to remain results
in severe backache, headache, torpid
liver, constipation, and eventually
Bright's disease.
About 40 years ago Warmers Safe
Kidney and Liver Remedy, a combira-
ton of herbs and other healthful in
gradients, was discovered; it5 value IN.
strengthening the kidneys and liver was,
at once appreciated. And today it stands,
as one of the standard remedies in the
treatment of diseases of the kidneys and
liver. Many persons suffer from dis
eases of the kidneys unknowing;y. The

THE TIN SWORD.

Once upon a time, two swords hung
on the wall of real soldiers room.
One was large sword and had been
in a real war. The other was a little
tin sword which the real soldier played
with when he was little boy.
When he hung the big sword on the
wall after he came home from the war.
he said: "You are much larger than
this little fellow beside you, but you
have never killed Indians, and he
has"
Although he laughed when he said
1t, the little tin sword felt itself OF
great importance, and it did not mind
in the least the size of the big sword
which was many times as large as it
was.
That night, when the house was still
| and dark, and the only light in the
room was from the dying embers on
the hearth, the little sword said to the
big sword: "Is it true that you never
killed an Indian?"
'T have never killed anyone" an
swered the big sword with dignity.
What is the use of being a sword?"
asked the little one, IF you never have
killed anyone. Why, l have killed so
many Indians that / cannot remember
how many"
81 have been in battles, too con-
tinued the little sword, "and cut down
the enemy, and once a dog was bear
and killed him, too."
How could dog be bear?" asked
the big sword, taking notice of the
little sword for the first time when it
was not asked direct question.
Because the little boy said it was"
replied the little sword And once
cat was a tiger, and we went tiger
hunting, too"
How about the Indians?" asked the
big sword; were they real or play
| Indians?"
Real, of course" answered the little
sword; everything was real that we
did. The Indians wore long trousers
with feathers in the side of the legs
and band of long feathers sticking
up around their heads. You should
have heard them shout and give the
war cry"
"Was there any blood shed?" asked
the big sword, beginning to under
stand what the little sword was talk
ing about better than it did itself.
What is that?" asked the little
sword.
''If you had ever been in real battles
you would not ask?" replied the big
sword.
But you have never killed anyone
and have" said the little sword; Il
do not see why you should say have
never been in a real battle when you
have never done anything worth tell
ing Of yourself"
"There is a great deal to be done in
a battle besides killing" replied the
big sword. Il led the men who did the
fighting and directed them. The

lowing would know where to go ana
