He Knew There Wasn't Any Such
 Animal

JliIl simpson. former neWSDa man, now proprietor of Phoenix gar age, told this one.
 Some years ago. in the good old days when mans pocketbook and capacity were the only limits on the a. ount of liquor he could drink. a fish market opened upon on a downtown street. The night before the opening day the market received a large box of fisA. from the coast. and the bottom of the box was completely filled with one huge denizen of the deep. The proprietor of the market happened to be live wire business man. and he immediately seized upon the great fish as the logical thing to use for a dis play sign over the door of the new market, knowing it would attract much attention.
 Next morning the design was car rled out, and all through the opening day the monster lung over the door of the market. it's five feet of length stretched above the portal. fulfilling its appointed mission of drawing the no- tice of the populace to the new estab- lishment. All gazed on the fish. and all pondered upon it's size.
 Along toward evening. when the street was nearly deserted, gentle man approached with that heavy air of gravity which sometimes settles upon person after the thirteenth or fourteenth highball. This gentleman drew near the new fish market with a stiffly steady gait. and directly in front of the door paused to observe the big fish.
 After a long stare the man backed off carefully and returned from au- other angle. 10 look again. This ma neuve.,t was repeated several times until. satisfied his eyes were not de- ceiving him the mar gave tongue to his thoughts. in the following manner:
 ''Cmph, pretty big fish. Yessir, pret- tv big fish. that one. Heard lot of fish stories, but never heard of a fish like that Mighty funny thing. that fish And then
 Say the man who says he caught that fish sure is an awful liar"

But He Saw the Range Anyway

That q man known throughout the country as d business man of ability should be engaged in business for a quarter of q century and give it no other personal attention than to re- ceive the profits from it is almost in conceivable But yet that has been successfully done by Hon. T. A. Roir dan and his brother. M. J. Riordan. of Flagstaff, proprietors of the Arizona Lumber company. But the business spoken of here is not that of the lum- Der company, for they give that un- remitting attention.
 But twenty-six years ago they were induced to go into the sheep business: nearly everyl ody in that part of An zona had something to do with sheep at that time. Their partner in that enterprise was Charlie Howard. who is yet a partner and general manager.
 Probably millions of sheep have come and gone on the range of the company, but the Riordan brothers have never seen one of them. Though the range is within two hours ride of Flagstaff neither of the brothers has ever seen it: that is neither of them had ever seen it until very recently, when one of them was Kidnapped by Howard and taken out to it.
 Howard had been trying for years to get them to visit their property. What's the user" was the reply. We don't know anything about sheep we're 1umbermen. We're satisfied with the way you have been running the business. We've made money out of it; great deal of money"
 But a few days ago Howard came to Flagstaff, planted his feet in the offices of the brothers and announced that he would not return to the range unless one or both of the brothers went hack with him. Tn order to get rid of him r A. went with him, but on his return to town he said that he knew as much then about the sheep business as he did when he embarked upon it a quar- ter of century ago.
 But He Got All He Wanted If variety makes life worth living then the clerk of a marriage license bureau should never complain, for he No two men who come in to get the little certificate that means so much at the time and so little later on acl exactly alike during the filling out oi ! the blanks. For to the average mar the taking out of a marriage license is one of the few important events oi l life.
 1 Some men are so nervous they would run if the clerk so much as 'booed' l at them. Others are so assured the | clerk must indeed feel like a humber l being Still others come in who can not remember small details, such as tht
 age of the bride to be, and there is on' | case on record in this county of a mar

The Hague, April 3.-The bolshe- wiki are conducting strong cam paign against America, England and France by the skillful use of huge propaganda posters in Moscow, says G. Nijpels, correspondent of the Am sterdam Handelsblad who visited sov- jet Russia this winter. He found much to admire from an artistic standpoint in the designs of which he saw many in the railway stations.
 "This poster campaign is certain lys very clever piece of work" he writes. Both the educated and un- lettered classes are struck by them, teh first by the writing beneath, the second by the drawings themselves. The campaign was directed along three great lines: First, to culti- vate hatred, loathing and fear for such men as Kolchak and Denikine;
 second, to breed hatred of the en- tente, especially against the capital istic triumvirate, France. England and America-never Japan, Italy, the Poles or Czecho-S -Slovaks s-but always this triumvirate, pictured as the bourgeoise parasiting upon the pro- letariat; and, third, to prevent de- sertion among the red soldiers.
