 Be it Resolved by the City Council of Tombstone that the Hon. Thos. F. Maddock. state highway engineer. he. and is hereby requested 10 use his best efforts to secure funds for the purpose of paving the state highway from the west city limits to the east city limits of Tombstone. and.

FUEL roR II BODY

In addition TO an understanding
Of the five food groups, it is well to
know what proportions to use of the
foods in each group, the United
States Department Of Agriculture
points out.
As a rule the diet will be sufi-
GENTLY bulky and hayorful and will
furnish the right proportion Of
starch, fat and sugar for the taste of
most people if the vegetables and
fruits furnish about 20 per cent of
the fuel the milk, meat, eggs and
similar foods, 20 per cent; the cereal
foods, 30 per cent sweets, 10 per
cent, and fats and fat foods, 20 per
cent.
a diet made up on these proper
tons will furnish satisfactory kinds
and amounts Of protein, mineral
substances and yitamines.

NOTES on ENGLISH COSTUME
American Writer Is Not Altogether
Kindly to Fashion Approved
Across the Water.

The Englishwomsn has developed
a national costume in the last few
years, writes Kenneth L. Roberts in
the Saturday Evening Post. This is
known as the iumper-probably so
called because it frequently makes
the beholder jump, though some
claim that its name is due to the
fact that it eau be jumped into
quickly. The jumper is a low
necked affair hal hangs down to the
hips and is worn in place Of a blouse,
a shirtwaist or a coat, 1t has elbow
length sleeves and a belt around the
waist, and it is made Of all sorts of
materials, from the thinnest silk to
the heaviest wool. Englishwomen
wear jumpers for breakfast, lunch
and dinner. They wear them when
at home and when travelling. Owing
to the fact that all jumpers have the
appearanc Of half-portion dressing
sacks EngliShwomen who wear them
look at all times as though they
we're just about to comb their hair
or had just finished doing SO. Eng
lishwomen also like to wear man
nish walking suits made Of Scotch
tweed. The Englishwomen's tweed
walking suits invariably look as
though they had been constantly
slept in for the last three years.

SEES BY SENSE OF SMELL
Remarkable Attribute u Bllna Girl
May Lead to Entirsly Now Era
in Education.

A new era in education, especially
Of children, through the complete
utilization Of every ineness Of sense
is predicted by J. t. Hooper, super
intendent Of the State School for the
Blind at GAINESVILLE, Wis.
The steady increase in the I'M
usual powers of Wiletta Higgins,
deaf and blind marvel of the
school, will open new avenues for
teaching, the speaker asserted.
Miss Higgins is able to see" by
her sense of smell and "hear' by
means Of her sense of touch. She
recently was the subject Of a con-
troyersy between Prof. Joseph JAS
trow, University Of Wisconsin psy-
chologist, and Mr.. Hooper. The for
mer contended she was practicing =
deception.
Miss Higgins can tell the number
Of people in a photograph by her
sense of smell. She, Of course, can
not tell who they are
Referring to Professor Jastrow'S
charges that she has eyesight and
hearing, Mr.. Hooper contended that
the fact she could not distinguish
color in glass or other material in
which the color has been covered,
while she IAN tell cOlors in all other
things by smelling them, is proof
that she cannot see.
