Friend Cats "favors' giving every
returned soldier forty acres of land
and 800. Fine. We favor that, too
We also favor giving them immunity
from sickness and sorrow, and con-
ferring upon them life everlasting
While you're favoring, might as well
favor a-plenty, and not stop at a mere
bagatelle like one hundred million
acres of land and two hundred and
fifty million dollars. Wonder lust
where that hundred million acres of
land is to be located?
1t is said that the first thing Edwal d
Box did after he retired from the
editorship of the Ladies Home Jour-
nal was to reduce the rental of six
houses he owned, Mr.. Bok's life is
an inspiration, particularly in the
suggestion that men should close the
period devoted to the production of
personal fortune somewhere about
the age Of fifty, and give the remain
der Of their lives to the service of
their kind. A splendid program Of
life indeed; but unfortunately a
great many men-the majority, indeed
lat the age Of fifty are just beginning
to learn how to live, and are only be-
ginning to lay up the competency that
ought to have been provided in their
earlier years. To all men who can
follow it, however, the example OF
Mr.. Box is to be commended.

 GONE FUR THREE DAYS

Arthur is his name. He is 10 years old and on the high road of adven- ture. His aunt and uncle, with whom he is visiting, are not certain whether he is chasing bandits or prospecting for gold, but they are confronted with the serious fact that he has been miss ing from his home for three days.
 When he left his home at 209 East Van Buren street last Wednesday Ar tur was wearing a khaki cap, pair of khaki trousers, a white shirt and very little else. He was barefooted His hair is light brown and inclined to be curly. Although not noticeable at glance, his eyes are slightly crossed.

One a day still continues to be the
 divorce record for Phoenix since the first of the year, according to the number of suits filed in the superior court during May. Only 29 actions were brought m that month as com pared to fl filed in April, but the total to June l. is 163. or more than one each day for every day the clerks of flee is open from January 1 to June l.
 More than 75 per cent of the suits brought in this county for decrees of divorce are default cases in which no defense is made and a resume of the actions filed shows that the defendants on most of the cases never were resi- dents of Arizona. In most cases the address of the defendant is unknown at the time of filing the suit. This

Proper Wraps a Most Important Fea-

 Nothing insures more comfortable feeling about ones wardrobe than to have a sufficient number of wraps Of the right sort. If a little care and fore thought is used this need not be so diff ficult, nor so expensive a thing to ac- complish Have one less dress and ono more wrap would be my suggestion in the matter.
 An individual and distinguished wrap is shown in the sketch today. And withal it is practical; a wrap for travelling, for motoring, for late after noon wear. The material is dark brown wool duvetyn the lining, to tighten it up, being of brown silk, fig ured gaily with orange discs. The un-

 My Own Recipes
 There are many different brands of waters on the market most delicious to serve with salad or tea in the after noon, but there is one kind that are rather unusual and especially good When I use them I butter them lightly and put them in the broiler to toast a minute before serving. These waters are wonderfully crisp and fairy-like in structure, but quite nourishing. And it's surprising how few people know about them, so they are something different for afternoon tea.

 Four flaps that fasten the garment down the left side, buttoning into flat brown bone buttons, are other nice details; also the hem, that is really not a hem at all. but simply a piece of the material laid on and stitched an eighth of an inch below it's edge, giv- ing to the wrap the effect of having a fine line of cording running all the way round.

It appealed to me so I thought you might like to try to copy 1t.
 The pattern is quite simple: Two half-moon circular pieces joined in the center of the back and tacked together at the hem to form arm holes. The printed with little blue and pink flow CTS. Beading and rather wide Valen- ciennes lace are sewn on flat all the way round the eidge. Little rosettes of blue and pink baby ribbon finish the neck, and cuddle into the niehes where the sIeeevs are tackled. The material need not necessarily be dimity. Dotted Swiss would be equally pretty, or silk, or even French flannel.
