Tlio fl.OOO.OOO Tonto tlnm and rocrvolr ono of tlio most mnrvclous en

heart of nature's wonderland. Towering mountains nnd wild, rocky cnu
joiih that liavn stood for nges nlniost unknown to mnii nro being fitted Into
a harness of rock and tnnsonry.
Tonto dam will hold In cheek the largest nrtlflclnl body of wntcr In tho
world a lake i!5 miles long, with nn nverago width of 114 miles.' This storo
of water will some day change 200,000 acres of desert Into n veritable fairy
land. Any fruit, vegetable or grain that will grow In tho seinl-troptcal reglou
thrives on Arizona's desert hut only when there Is water to Irrigate It.
Tho Tonto reservoir Is on Salt Hlver about seventy miles from I'hoenlx.
Work has been progressing uwn this great project four years. Tho total esti
mated cost Is about .? 1,000,000. Tlio project was ono of the llrst taken In
hand by tho engineers of tho United States Iteclnuintlou Service.

Coal Is fossil peat. Tho peat-bogs
of today might luxxmio coal betls In
boino future t;et)loglcal age. I'rofessor
l'otonlo of Ilerllu says there Is strict
parallelism between tho different kinds
of peat and of coal. Wnen tho remains
at plants collect under terrestrial
conditions, nn ordlunry peat bog Is
formed. This corresponds with "bright"
coal. If the remains collect under wn
ter, nn organic sllmo Is formed, nnd
this t-orresjionds with "dull." or caunel,
coal. When terrestrhtt and aquatic
conditions lmvo alternated during tho
collection of tho remains, "strata-peat"
results, nnd this corresponds with coal
deioslts consisting of alternate layers
of bright nnd dull coal. The chemical
nud physical properties or tho various
kluds of uat nnd coal show a similar
correspondence.
The Japanese, who know so well how
to add llttlo unexpected attractions
to overy-day life, manufacture, In j
great variety of forms, Iron teakettles
which break Into song wheu tho water
bolls. The song may not bo a very
perfect melody, but It Is perhaps as
agreeable as tho notes produced by
some of the insects winch tho Japanese
also treasure for their music. The
harmonious sounds of the teakettles are
produced by steam bubbles escaping
from beneath thin sheets of Iron fas
tened cloao together uenrly at the bot-
flrtt .iriif dw $ tvtrptfr'
torn of tho kettles. To product) tho
best effects soino skill Is required In
regulating tho fire. The character of
tlio sounds vnrlos with the form of tho
kettle. Thcso slngliiR kettles lmvo been
used for many centuries.
FATBIABOH OP CANDIES.
Stiirnr-IMiim Wan I'lmt Mniln nn
Cnllril l)rnrntl" l.y (he llninnna.
Tho most nnclcnt kind of candy Is
tho sugar plum. It was tho Invention
of Julius Drngntus, n noted Itomnii
baker and confectioner- who belonged
to tho family of Fablus. According to
tho Now York Herald, It was In 177
11. O. that he made tho great discov
ery which for twenty centuries has
done ho much damage to teeth.
Theno bon-bons, culled dragatl,.nfter
their Inventor (drngees, In French), re
mained tho exclusive prlvllego of tho
family of Fablus. Hut at trio birth or
marriage of one of that family n great
distribution of drngatl took place, ns n
sign of rejoicing. Tho custom Is still
observed by many of tho nobility of
Europe.
The pastlllo Is of far Inter origin,
having been Invented and Introduced
Into Franco by nn Italian confectioner,
tho Florentine, John Pastllla, a protego
of the Medlels. When Mnrlu do Med
ici married Henry IV. of France, Pas
tllla accompanied his sovereign to tho
French court, where his bon-bons had
a tremendous vogue. Kverylwdy want
ed tho Florentine's pastilles, which
were excellent. Ho made them with
all kinds of llavors chocolate, coffee,
rose, violet, mint, wine, strawberry,
raspberry, vanilla, hellotropo nud car
nation. llurued nlmonds nro purely or
French origin, owing their Inception to
tho gluttony of n certain French mer
chant. Ono day Marshal Duplessls
Pralln, nn old gourmet, sent for Las
Hiigne, who had nlready Invented ninny
n toothsome dainty, to concoct n now
bon-bon for him. Lnssngno searched,
relleeted, combined, until flnnlly ho
conceived a delicious bon-bon, which
ho baptized gloriously with tho naino
of bis master, Prulluo, tho French for
burned nlmouds.
Thoro Is a lesson for every mer
chant In tho experience told by a rep
resentative of n Chicago mall order
houbo to a gathering of uowspnper men
In Iowa, says tho Parsons Eclipse. IIo
said that tho mall order business de-,
ponded entirely uou advertising. IIo j
mndo ono remark that merchants
should heed. IIo says they tako tho
local papers and directed their .special
effort: in communities where the mer
chants aro not up-to-dato advertisers.
If tho mail order man finds that any
line of bustucia In any town or city Is
not well advortlsed, as, for Instance,
furniture, ho said that they flood that
territory with their literature and al
ways with satisfactory results. He be
lieved It true, ho said, that country
merchants could greatly crlpplo tho
mall order business If they wonhl ad
vertlso freely and In tho right mau
ner. Tho country merchant should
get wise.
