RIDING ON SOFT TIRES

No one has ever found any joy
 in pumping up tires. Usually
 when a man wishes to pump
 up his tires he picks out a Free
 Air Station.
 You can always tell that your tires need air when they look soft, But they need air before they look soft and the only way you can find this out is with a Tire Pressure Gauge, Until Saturday you can buy one here for 95c.

Every employe in the Phoenix Rail- way company is to receive a $100 Lib erty bond for a Christmas present. 22 bc-.c.5 Being presented yesterday by Manager S. H. Mitchell and the re- maining bonds being ready for presen- tation at any time. The employees who came into the payroll since last April got their bonds on a pro-rata basis. ' At the time of the last-loan rally Manager Mitchell called upon his men to be loyal along with everybody else. and he found that many of them were loyal enough in spirit, but unable financially to assume one more $100 obligation. so he asked them to sign up anyway and he would present the bonds to them if their good will to the company continued as it had in the past.
 The men have done well, just as expected" Manager Mitchell said last night, they have worked together nicely and I was eager to do every thing for them that I could. As we are still operating on 8 five-cent fare I couldn't do more from the profits, but the Liberty bond account represents a disbursement of from s2.S00 to $3,000.''

 Too much milo maize in her diet along with the warm days and crisp nights of Phoenix. proved rather trying on her complexion and caused her skin to crack from the apex of her trusty trunk to the point of her tiny tail
 Realizing that it would never do to send Mabel forth before the pub llc on Christmas day in such sorry plight, Assistant Manager Murray A Pennock ordered massage for her and Capt. Sydney Ring of the eIe- phant herd superintended the ap- plication.
 Whole barrelsful of heats foot oil were applied to-her blistering back her seamy sides. her huge head. and her timorous twisting tail, and the 'cream" was rubbed in with boulie brush, after which more oil was applied and rubbed in more gently with d big broom while her pores responded and the patient pachy-
  descended upon her once again.
 In the show yesterday Mabel was merry because of the relief she felt and happy because of the admira- tion her black back produced. Mur- ray says that live leather never be- fore was softened on so large a scale.
 Jealousy ranked in the heaving heart of Pearl. sister elephant to l.

Pearls finger nails and tOe-nails were too long anyway, and she was said to be somewhat catty in her disposi- ton, so Capt. Rink filed them down and polished them while Pearl trumpeted her delight. Murray says he can make an elephant hap py every time.
