 Because there is very little traffic over the Apache Trail at night, the special stages will be enabled to make faster time. Only experienced drivers familiar with every foot of the road between here and Globe will be placed in charge of the 'Drummer's Special" so passengers may be assured of mak- ing the trip in the utmost safety.
 It is expected that many tourists will also take advantage of the night run, as the haunting fascfnFrtion of the Apache Trail is accentuated on brilliant moonlit nights.

This is the time to start a hotoed for early vegetables. This will mean a gain of four to six weeks over out door planting. In other words, radish- es may be ready for the table at the time the first seeds can be planted outdoors; and such plants as tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and melons will have a season six weeks longer than that afforded by the garden.

 day, in Scribner's,
 It was a notable event in the history of the wild life of our country when the first big game hunter hung up his rifle and took to the woods with a camera.
 Ever since the first photographer went afield with a sportsman, the camera man has been the best expo nent and advertiser of the prowess of the man with gun. During the days of the slow and cumbersome wet plate, and long exposures, the alert and sud- den wild animal was About as -unattain- able pictorially as the canals of Mars.
 The dry plate opened up great pos abilities in the photographing of dead game in it's haunts. From 1884 onward American hunters of big game joyous ly welcomed the startling pictures made by Laton A.

Home Face Feeling
 Becomes Popular

No complexion treatment yet discovered seenos to have become so generally. and so immediately popular as the mercolized wax process Evidently the reason is that this method actually gets rid of a bad com plexion. which can hardly be said of any other. To temporarily hide or bleach the defective skin with cosmetics cannot com pare with the effect of literally removing the skin itself. Mercolized wax takes oil the offending surface skin in flour-like par ticles, little at a time, until there's none of it left The new complexion thus pro duced exhibits a healthy glow and gillish beauty obtainable in no other way. ms vax which you can get at your druggists, is applied at night in the same way you use cold cream, and washed off next morn

'Mghtie Night" Farce
 Comedy at the Jefferson

moving at the rate of sixty miles an hour The comedy moves even faster,
 as there are sixty laughs minute,
 and when we say laughs we mean laughs not giggles.
 'Nightie Night was given the acid
 test in New York, the play had been
 all advertised and billed to open, and
 on the very evening that the pre-
 niere performance was to take place,
 the actors strike was called, and the
 opening had to be postponed month.
 This would ordinarily take the interest away from an average play. and in a
 month the public would have forgot
 ten all about it. but it was not so i. with ''Nightie Night. Once the strike was settled arrangements were made and 'Nightie Night was given it's first performance at the Princess Theatre where it became an instantaneous sue cess and remained at this theatre for the entire season playing to packed houses at-every performance.
 For several months "Nightie Night was the topic of conversation at the club, in the home and in the cafes. AL most the first thing one would ask Have you seen 'Nightie Night%" and if you had not. the usual expression, Don't miss it." Tt is a real treat"

imported. He is with the Ringing Brothers giraffes constantly during the summer tour and when they are in the circus winter quarters in Bridgeport, Conn. He sleeps in the same building with them When the circus is on the road, the ear in which he lives is at taehed to that which carries the five giraffe wagons, He pets them and calls them his children. Mary, who is almost nineteen feet in height, answers to his beck and call or eats sugar from his hand.
 Andrews love for animals is not con- fined to giraffes He carries with him on the road a private menagerie. There is a crow, a cat of the common house variety, dog, monkey whose leg was broken two years ago, and who was nursed to health by Andrew; two pigeons, a chicken and a parrot. Any woe-begone or tramp animal he meets on the road is added to his collection and the love of all of his pets for Andrew is as fine a thing as is Andrews love for them.
 When the double circus comes here Wednesday, Andrew will be seen near the high steel corrall in which the giraffes are exhibited. And nearby those who are curious may see his private menagerie.
