HOW GIN IS MADE

deadly than plain corn moonshine
made in our native hills of home
grown maize. The latter has
death-dealing potentialities not to
be minimiZed, but it's mortality
rate is far below that of the mod
ern synthetic stuff masquerading
under faxed labels
Yet there are always optimistic
souls who like to believe they
are offered an opportunity to get
something genuine when the boot
logger flashes a bottle of Scotch"
or Holland" gin bearing an all
too new and bright label before
their eyes with the whispered con-
1dence that it was landed off San
Diego or Long Beach only a few
nights ago and brought to Arizona
in a high-powered car by a friend
who travelled only at night and
who lay hidden in the desert ar
royos during the daylight hours.
For another thing, the man who
drinks the fancy" stuff-which is
fancy only in price-has had his
confidence imposed upon and is
not as wary against large indul-
gence as the drinker of plebian
corn moonshine is apt to be. The
latter feels his way and is on the
lookout for premonitory symptoms
of apoplexy or blindness, a eau
tion not usually taken by the over
confident imbiber of labeled goods.
Our advice to drinkers for the
holiday season is don't. But if
you must, better to take chances
with native corn Ticker than with
the synthetic compounds. You will
be taking plenty of chances in any
event, but less with the former
than with the latter.-Silver Belt.
Arizona state miner., 1926-01-02

Consumers who fondly imagine
they are getting original distillery
products when they buy labeled
goods carrying we'll known pre-
VoIstead brands and trademarks,
will be disillusioned by a news
story which comes out of the or
fee of, the Maricopa county shef-
iff.
The sheriff's deputies made a
raid on a spot off the Black Can
yon Road north of Phoenix net
ting one arrest and seizures OF
about 100 quart bottles of "gin,"
ten gallons of alcohol, a bottle
of "gin" flavor, empty bottles,
corks, glass tops, labels and other
paraphernalia for the making of
Phoenix special brands of the Ii
quor.
Among the seizures was five
gallon bottle, about two-thirds full
of mixed gin ready for trans
fer into the beautifully labeled
bottles of famous pre-war brand.
Of course, the initiate learned
long ago that there is no such
thing as real bonded liquor for
sale in the United States so far
inland as Phoenix.
However, with cleverly COM
pounded extracts of coal tar as
flavors, and the use of cheapest
grades of industrial alcohol as a
base to furnish the kick, bootleg
gers will supply any brand of Ii
quor desired from Scotch to gin,
in a genuine appearing bottle
with a forged fac-simile label.
The synthetic compounds dis
guised as the real thing in liqours
are usually more dangerous and

BRAWN--BEAUTY--B Y--BRA|NS

If appreciation of human excel
lence be correctly indicated by the
material gains possible to its pos
SCISSOR, it can hardly be denied
that the world still esteems the
physical above the mental.
Brawn and beauty command f.
nancial rewards far beyond those
accorded to mere brains This re-
fers, of course, to the personal
earnings of the top-notchers, aside
from any investment of capital.
We are willing to pay fabulous
sums to those who entertain us,
while dealing less generously with
those who contribute to our in
struction or our general welfare.
Compare the earnings of Gloria
Swanson, Mary Pickford, Jack
Dempsey and Babe Ruth with
those of our eminent authors, sci
entists and engineers. While some
authors receive handsome remun-
Grafton, they are those who can
turn out best selling novel, rath-
er than writer's of solid or instruc-
tive literature.
That the condition noted is be-
coming more and more marked
may be illustrated by the shower
OF gold just now being heaped up
on Red" Grange, famed football

The ATOM AS FUEL

There isn't much need of worry
ing about the prospective exhaus-
ton of the earth's visible fuel sup
ply, if the hopes of Professor Nc
Clennan of the University of Tor
onto are realized. He thinks we
may get fuel enough out of the
atom.
Already, he says, it is possible to
make helium out of hydrogen, lib
Grating in the process, as a by-pro-
duct, enormous amounts of energy
in the form of heat. There are tre-
mendous quantities of energy lock
ed up in atoms of all kinds. Science
is beginning to see how that en-
ergy may be got at. We may be
able one of these days to tap these
fundamental sources of energy, in.
stead of satisfying ourselves with
trivial by-products of atomic
change, as we do at present.
If our scientists, instead of mere
ly knocking off part of the hydro
gen atoms, could destroy them al
together and so obtain their latent
energy, then out of a quantity of
hydrogen no larger than the hui
man body there would be obtained
enough heat to bring four cubic
miles of water to the boiling point
Imagine the possibilities for the
production of steam and electricity.
But is the human race ready
morally for such boon, even if it
is prepared Intellectually? There's
the question. Suppose one of the
belligerents had mastered this Sc
cret in the World War. 1t might
have wiped out it's enemies utterly
Suppose all the belligerents had
possessed it. What would have
been left of our civilization? If
there is just and wise power rul-
ing the universe, as most of us be-
lieve, will such q gift be entrusted
to man as long as he is likely to
abuse it?

star, who has received close to
100000 in less than a month since
he left the University of Illinois to
join the professional ranks.
This includes the unprecedented
sum of 100000 for his first NOV
ing picture film; $4,000 for one
football game and an almost equal
amount for lending his name and
endorsement to certain manufac-
tured articles for advertising pur-
posese A rather ridiculous Incl.
dent Of commercialism is reported
to the effect that he received n
large sum for permitting his name
to be used in connection with a to.
bacco advertisement, although he
does not use the weed himself.
About the only conclusion to be
drawn from all this is that people
will spend their money for the
things they want, and that in our
present state of civilization Drawn
commands the highest price in the
worlds market, with beauty hold
ing second place and brains run
ming rather poor third.

FEMININE STYLES FOR 1872

NJ MININE STYLES FOR 1926
Forecasts of styles in women's
dress for next year show a cont:nu-
alton of the policy of abreviation.
We had thought that the lirnit in
that direction had about been
reached, especially in the matter
of skirts. 1t never occurred to us
that skirts for women would stop
above the present level of tha
knees. The knees present them
selves to the male mind as the
natural high water mark
But it appears from illustrations
of advance styles for the coming
season, that there is no limit 70
which the bottom hem OF the skirt
will be lifted. In fact, it looks
from the sketches as though the
skirt had been eliminated entirely.
The drawings represent the blouse
as being lowered to a point slightly
below the center of gravity, and
extra long stockings coming up to
meet.
AS far as we are able to discover
with the aid of the Office micro
scope, the skirt has just evaporat-
ed from Milady's clothes for the
year 1926.
Styles in feminine raiment de-
scribe cycles. 1t looks at the pres
ent moment as though the era OF
the fig leaf was about to return.

A FARMER NATION

The Federal Trade Commis-
sion's report on the wealth OF
the United States, following a
three years study authorized by
the Senate, shows that the larg-
est percentage of wealth III the
United States is found in agri-
culture, and not in industry.
The fact that the value of ag-
riculture was 4 per cent great
er than that of manufacturing
and mining is rather unexpect7
ed. their percentage being l6
and IA respectively.
The largest item, and one
quarter of the total amount, i IS
represented by houses, dwell
ings and personal property.
Railroads and public utilities
are credited with being only IL
per cent of the whole, but this
figure has, undoubtedly, increas-
ed because of large expenditures
during the past three years.
