CHILD CULTURE. Written, for and Read Before the L. M. A. S. of Buena Park Sept. 24th. The person that has never lived with children has missed one of life's sweetest pleasures. Association with their innocence and mirth makes life better, happier and brighter. "Except ye become as little children ye cannot enter into the Kingdom of Heaven." The gleeful laugh of happy children is the best home music, and the graceful figure of childhood the best statuary. The strong maternal love for children, which is everywhere felt, is one of God's greatest gifts. In fulfilling the guildings of their nature, parents are obeying Christ's command, "Feed my lambs." No more quietly do snowflakes fall upon the meadows than do impressions upon the child's mind, and we cannot tell when these influences are not in operation. Often agents work secretly, but perseveringly, for a long time to undo the teachings of parents. Not all at once does any heart become good or evil, and parents often fail to know when the seeds of good or evil are sown and take root. "While the man slept the enemy came and sowed tares." How is this evil to be corrected? We all have our standards, but how often we have to regret that we have not done by our children as we desired to, and how bitterly we monn over the mistakes in their training that resulted in injury to the little ones that we love better than ourselves. How we need daily to pray for wisdom, patience and love from the Great Parent, whose whole nature is love! Children should be seriously and quietly reproved, but never scolded. I firmly believe this, but often the quick, impatient words come to do their harm; and too late to be repented. The reproving should be done in secret, and not before the family or others, if the desired effect is to be accomplished. Avoid hurting the self respect of the child. Shaming or ridiculing should not be done, as they awaken feelings of anger and hate that will not fail to bear their fruits. A child is not allowed to argue, and cannot defend himself. "He is often tried, condemned and executed in a minute." He is considered of little use except to do the bidding of others. His likes and dislikes are not consulted. He is expected to come at the call of older ones, no matter how much he may be enjoying himself otherwise. What is of the most importance to him is considered of no consequence to others. He is made to give up the most comfortable places, to run on errand at any or all times; is snubbed and questioned until he tries to evade government, and Merit Is what gives Hood's Sarsaparilla its great popularity, its constantly increasing sales, and enables it to accomplish its wonderful and unequalled cures.

While the wide-tire law passed by the last Legislature does not go into effect until January 1, 1900, it is not only in the interest of persons purchasing or repairing wagons, but for the benefit of roads throughout the State, that tires should be of the width required by the Act. The Department of State Highways is anxious that the new law shall be published and placed in every man's hand, and recognizing that the only way to accomplish that end is through the medium of the press, Secretary A. L. Henry forwarded copies of the law to each newspaper, accompanied by the request that it be published. The text of the law is as follows: CHAP. CXVII.—An act to regulate the width of tires on wagons to be used on the public highways of the State of California. (Approved March 20, 1897.) The people of the State of California, represented in Senate and Assembly, do enact: A DEER IN HIS ARMS A Michigan Hunter's Fight With Buck. Harry Middlehouse of Grand Miracle is probably the only man in Michigan who ever caught a deer in his arrows captured it alive. A few days young Middlehouse, who was wounded his cousin at Remus, caught a glove of a 250-pound buck that had been captive when a fawn, but which away four years ago and has been ever since. Middlehouse hid behind a log while a companion she deer toward him. The buck to the edge of the log and staggered house did not have the help shoot it and sprang for the buckling his arms around its neck, ensured a battle royal. Middlehouse managed to thru buck, but it speedily rose to its Farwell, his companion, was taken away to be of assistance. Each Middlehouse succeeded in thru buck it managed to get a paw with its horns, which fortune had been recently shed. By the Farwell reached the scene Middlewas almost worn out, his clothing mostly gone and he had two big on his side, raised by the buck With Farwell's help Middlehouys got a halter around the neck and tled it to a tree. After the two young men had they bound the buck's feet to his old next day it was boxed forment after another desperate situation in which nearly the whole village part, and sent to Grand Rapids, it will find a permanent home city park. WHY ENVELOPES ARE LINED. "Why are these envelopes made on the inside?" asked a reporter at a specimen which a white stationer held in his hand. "For a very simple reason," replied. "One of the most important suits in making envelopes is to transparency. Many white paper so transparent that by careful sealing the contents of envelopes made material, may be determined. Stance, let us put a sheet of paper writing on it into this envelope also insert a bank-check now seal it and hold it to thus. There you can not only bank check, but you can also many of the words on the sheet per. This can be prevented getting a very thick and high envelope, which is not transpacscary transparent, or by taking cheaper grade of paper which on one side.

A child is not allowed to argue, and cannot defend himself. "He is often tried, condemned and executed in a minute." He is considered of little use except to do the bidding of others. His likes and dislikes are not consulted. He is expected to come at the call of older ones, no matter how much he may be enjoying himself otherwise. What is of the most importance to him is considered of no consequence to others. He is made to give up the most comfortable places, to run on errand at any or all times; is snubbed and questioned until he tries to evade government, and then is whipped for being untruthful. Can they be blamed, when treated thus, if they sometimes do some thinking for themselves, and consider the boys abused? Happily all boys are not treated thus. Be patient, loving and kind, but firm. Teach by talks and example the lessons of truth, patience, love, honor, generosity and other virtues. Enter into child life, make their joys and sorrows yours. By loving sympathy keep their love and confidence. When you have tried to do your best by them, do not be too much surprised and discouraged if you find they are, after all, like other children, instead of being the perfect ones you fondly imagined, and loudly affirmed you could raise, before you had children of your own. "It is such a short time that they remain with us. Nothing on earth grows so fast as children." In looking back it seems but yesterday since they were our babies with their toys; now they are grown up, and have homes of their own. Oh! how quiet the house is! How gladly we would see the ball, tope, and dolls around. How we long for the clasp of little arms around our neck and to hear "I love 'oo mama!" It seems to us now, we could find time to hold them on our laps, read to them, and tell them the stories they used to ask for. There are no hurt fingers or bumped heads to be "kissed and made well," no prayers to be lisped or little ones to be tucked in bed at night. Why did we used to find fault with them? "They are such tiny feet! They have gone such a little way to meet The years which are required to break Their steps to evenness, and make them go More sure and slow. They are such little hands! Be kind, things are so new, and life but stands A step beyond the doorway. All around New day has found Such tempting things, to shine upon; and so The hands are tempted off, you know! They are such fond, clear eyes That widen to surprise At every time! They are so often held To turn or showers soon dispelled By looking in our face; Love asks, for such, more grace. They are such fair, frail gifts! Unpertain as the rifts Of light that lie along the sky—They may not be here by and by. Give them not love but more—above And harder—patience with the love." MRS.

The people of the State of California, represented in Senate and Assembly, do enact: Section 1. The width of tires for wheels upon wagons or other vehicles to be used upon public highways of the State of California shall be, for the following styles of wagons, as follows: Two and three-fourths-inch steel or thimble-skein axle, one and seven-eighths-inch tubular steel or iron axle, not less than three-inch tire; one and one-half-inch steel or iron axle, two and one-eighth-inch tubular steel or iron axle, not less than four-inch tire; three and one-fourth-inch steel or thimble-skein, one and three-fourths or one and seven-eighths-inch steel or iron axle, two and five-eighths-inch steel or iron axle, two and three-eighths-inch tubular steel or iron axle, not less than four and one-half-inch tire; three and one-half-inch steel or thimble-skein, two-inch steel or thimble-skein, two-inch steel or thimble-skein, two-inch steel or thimble-skein, two-inch steel or thimble-skein, two-inch steel or thimble-skein, two-inch steel or thimble-skein, two-inch steel or thimble-skein. Section 2. Every person who sells or purchases, or uses upon any public highway of the State of California any wagon or other vehicle, the wheels of which wagon or vehicle has tires of a less width than as specified for such kind of wagon in Section 1, of this Act, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. Section 3. Any person found guilty of a violation of any of the provisions of this Act shall be fined in the penal sum of not less than twenty-five dollars (25) nor more than five hundred (500), or to be imprisoned in the County Jail not less than twenty-five (25) days nor more than six months.

ERRORS IN LIVING Man's Excessive Appetite and Capacity For Food. To the lay mind nothing seems so strongly in favor of robust as a hearty appetite. Furious there would seem to be a strict violation in the public mind, as by tradition from time almost moral; that the more a man better be is. The quantity of many people naturally eat is very compared with their actual ecological requirements. Add many tempting forms in which presented to the palate by our culinary arts, the sharpening o' petits by the anteprandial cook stimulates afforded the appetite s tie of good wine, and the result the consumption of an amount that simply overwhelms the vital organs. Such indulgence striated and habitual, taxes both similarity and the excretory of their highest capacity especially coupled with sedentary life; and over it lends an additional immeiity the evils springing from the proper quality of food. The human elaborating and mechanical was evidently adjunct ordinary wear and tear to an limited period of about 70 years under 40 per cent of extra work naturally expect impairment in down of the mechanism much It should therefore excite no surprise that so large a proportion well to do people die from Brigit ease, heart failure and allied diseases 50 or 55 who should, unduly regulated lives and habits have attained the natural age over. Paradoxical though it may such people usually spring from nationally healthy stock and offer with pride to the fact that their diate ancestors lived to advance of 60 years or more. This paradox is more apparent than real investigation will usually reveal that for the most part the process were people of more habits, such as corresponded with England life 75 or 100 years ago. The truth is that the well tailed today lives in a faster age of his father and grandfather. Gems of Thought.

So long as we are conscious of self, we are limited, selfish, held in bondage; when we are in harmony with the universal order, when we vibrate in unison with God self-disappears.

The force expended by dissatisfied persons on efforts to escape their surroundings would often pluck the sting out of the incongruities of their situation, and track them to whole hives of honey.—Samuel Johnson in Lectures, Essays and Sermons. Life has no zest when it has no realization of the unattained. The man who knows all, who has all, and who is entirely self-sufficient, has never had the satisfaction of coming into ideal possession of the splendor of the Infinite; he has never reached out and taken hold of the beyond. Let us praise God for the unmeasured and unattained. In this is our stimulus to activity, our promise of growth, and our sufficient reason for living.—Churchman. Let us have all the self-culture we can get, but let it not be without the law of service.

There is a good deal of it abroad, and (25) nor more than five hundred (500), or to be imprisoned in the County Jail not less than twenty-five (25) days nor more than six months. Section 5.

All druggists, Miss Sarah McLean, one of the best known young ladies of San Diego, has instituted suit in the Superior Court to recover $10,000 damages from Mrs. McKenzie, a former friend, for alleged slander. Both women are members of the First Presbyterian church and are prominent socially. The case has been set for trial on October 25th, before a jury, and promises to attract a great deal of attention. It is alleged by Miss McLean that Mrs. McKenzie talked scandalously about her, spreading reports of great injury to her reputation. Among the injurious reports were insinuations that Miss McLean was a thief, and that she was also not morally upright and circumspect as she should be. The plaintiff alleges that these reports have damaged her in the eyes of society and that they have caused her great shame and embarrassment. She says they are totally unfounded, and that Mrs. McKenzie was aware that they were not true. The defendant has filed her answer to the complaint, making still other allegations regarding Miss McLean. She says that the stories touching Miss McLean's reputation were the result of that lady's own indiscretions, and that she (Mrs. McKenzie) was not responsible for them nor did she circulate them or invent injurious or slanderous statements. One of Miss McLean's indiscretions is alleged to have been the denning of male attire and walking publicly on the streets. This, according to Mrs. McKenzie, justified certain suspicions affecting the lady's reputation. Group Quickly Cured.

J.EVERHARDY. [sep9tf] A Thrilling Rescue. A YOUNG LIFE SAVED IN A REMARKABLE MANNER. Florence Sturdivant, of Grindstone Island, Saved from an Untimely Death—Her Dangerous Predicament. From "On The St. Lawrence," Clayton, N.Y. Among the Thousand Islands is one called Grindstone. It is seven miles long and three wide. The inhabitants of this island are a well-informed class of people who devote their energies to farming and quarrying for a livelihood. In the home of one of these islanders resides Florence J. Sturdivant, the four-year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William H. Sturdivant. She had a remarkable experience recently. FLORENCE J. STURDIVANT. In an interview with a reporter Mr. Sturdivant said: "Florence was taken sick in February, 1896, with scarlet fever and we immediately called a physician. After two weeks the fever subsided but Florence was left with a very weak back. Severe pains were constantly in the back and stomach. The difficulty seemed to baffle the efforts of the physician. Finally at the end of four months of treatment, we found our patient completely prostrated. At this time we called an eminent physician, who agreed with the diagnosis of our physician. He prescribed a course of treatment and we followed it faithfully for three months, but instead of improving, Florence failed. "A brother of my wife, who resided in Canada, but was visiting us, advised us to use Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and I purchased a box of the pills and began to give them to Florence. This was in October, 1896. After using the pills a short time we could see an improvement. Her strength began to return and her appetite was restored. When she had taken one box the pain in her back and stomach ceased and her recovery seemed certain. "We eagerly purchased a second box of pills and watched with delight the change for the better that was being wrought daily. Florence finally became strong enough to walk a little. She gained in flesh and strength rapidly. By the time she had used three boxes of the pills she was evidently well. We continued the treatment using another box, the fourth, to prevent the possibility of a recurrence of the difficulty. "We cannot praise too highly the value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I am positive that without their use our child would have been a confirmed invalid." (Signed) WILLIAM H. STURDIVANT. Subscribed and sworn to before me this sixth day of April, 1897. H.W. MOORE, Netary Public.

Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature to do its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials. F. J. CHENEY & Co., Toledo, O. MY LADY'S SECRET. My lady always smiled—not much to do, But when the hours and days increase in care, And dreaminess and weariness pursue, When youth and love grow dim in backward view, And life is but to bear and still for bear, Ah, then, her gentle sweetness, undefied By years of bitterness, shone forth. She smiled. My lady always smiled, in life and death. Some envied her a life that seemed all smiles, And some cried out or caught a sobbing breath, Self pitying, and God and man reviled, But some, to sorrow's burden responded, Were glad the gladness of her face to see Through toll and care and heartless apathy.

The great banquet hall ERRORS IN LIVING. To the lay mind nothing seems to aur so strongly in favor of robust health in a hearty appetite. Furthermore, there would seem to be a strong conduction in the public mind, sanctified by tradition from time almost immortal, that the more a man eats the better he is. The quantity of food that many people naturally eat is very large compared with their actual physiological requirements. Add to this the many tempting forms in which food is presented to the palate by our modern literary arts, the sharpening of the appetite by the anteprandial cocktail, the stimulus afforded the appetite by a bottle of good wine, and the result is often the consumption of an amount of food that simply overwhelms the assimilation organ. Such indulgence, if unrestricted and habitual, taxes both the assimilative and the excretory organs to their highest capacity, especially when coupled with sedentary life, and moreover, it lends an additional impetus to the evils springing from the use of improper quality of food. The human elaborating and excretory mechanism was evidently adjusted for ordinary wear and tear to an average limited period of about 70 years. Under 40 per cent of extra work we must naturally expect impairment or break down of the mechanism much earlier. Should therefore excite no special surprise that so large a proportion of our well to do people die from Bright's disease, heart failure and allied diseases at 50 or 55 who should, and under properly regulated lives and habits would, have attained the natural age of 70 or over. Paradoxical though it may seem, such people usually spring from exceptionally healthy stock and often point with pride to the fact that their immediate ancestors lived to advanced ages of 50 or 55 or more. This paradox, however, is more apparent than real, for investigation will usually reveal the fact that for most part the parents in such cases were people of more simple habits, such as corresponded with New England life 75 or 100 years ago.

This paradox, however, is more apparent than real, for investigation will usually reveal the fact that for most part the parents in such cases were people of more simple habits, such as corresponded with New England life 75 or 100 years ago. The truth is that the well to do man today lives in a faster age than that his father and grandfather. He meets also insert a bank-check. We will swear it and hold it to the light. There you can not only see the bank check, but you can also read any of the words on the sheet of paper. This can be prevented either by setting a very thick and high-priced envelope, which is not transparent, or by taking a paper grade of paper which is blue one side. We sell thousands of packages yearly of blue envelopes—that is, envelopes which are blue on one side and white on the other. One factory in New York turns out over 1,000,000 of such envelopes every day, and their sale in large cities is enormous. ERRORS IN LIVING. Man's Excessive Appetite and the Body's Capacity For Food. To the lay mind nothing seems to aur so strongly in favor of robust health in a hearty appetite. Furthermore, there would seem to be a strong conduction in the public mind, sanctified by tradition from time almost immortal, that the more a man eats the better he is. The quantity of food that many people naturally eat is very large compared with their actual physiological requirements. Add to this the many tempting forms in which food is presented to the palate by our modern literary arts, the sharpening of the appetite by the anteprandial cocktail, the stimulus afforded the appetite by a bottle of good wine, and the result is often the consumption of an amount of food that simply overwhelms the assimilation organ. Such indulgence, if unrestricted and habitual, taxes both the assimilative and excretory organs to their highest capacity, especially when coupled with sedentary life, and moreover, it lends an additional impetus to these evils springing from the use of improper quality of food. The human elaborating and excretory mechanism was evidently adjusted for ordinary wear and tear to an average limited period of about 70 years. Under 40 per cent of extra work we must naturally expect impairment or break down of the mechanism much earlier. Should therefore excite no special surprise that so large a proportion of our well to do people die from Bright's disease，heart failure and allied diseases at 50 or 55 who should，and under properly regulated lives和habits would，have attainedthenaturalageof70orever.Paradoxicalthoughitmayseemsuchpeopleusuallyspringfromexceptionallyhealthystockandoftenpointwithpridetofthefactthatthiestimelessancestorslivedtowardadvancedagesof150or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or100yearsgaforemanyinhumanelife75or1 It was evident to the practiced perceptions of the young woman that he was in a melting mood. As if to verify her acumen, as soon as her father appeared the young man ran. Indianapolis Journal. Chess has been known in China and Japan since 8000 B.C. The game of chess, as now played in Europe and America, dates from the sixteenth century. He had retired. "My friend," solemnly remarked the man in black, "you don't know how hard it is to lose your wife." "Hard?" he echoed. "My dear sir, it is simply impossible." — Chicago Times Herald. A HEAVY BASS VOICE. "No," said the gentleman in the bald wig, "I ain't much of a bass singer, but you ought to hear my brother." "Was he much?" asked the gentleman with the pea-green whiskers. "Much? His voice was so heavy that it made him bow-legged to carry it." There have been four secretaries of war whose names begin with "Mo," two secretaries of the treasury, two postmasters general, one secretary of the interior and one attorney general. Of the letters following the "Mo," three have been C's (three distinct persons, three different positions), two have been H's (the same person, same position), four L's (two persons, five positions), one V.—Salt Lake Herald. Championed by a Dog. Several years ago in Wisconsin, before the Indian had retired from the neighborhood of the white man, a mother and her little girl were alone in their cottage on the edge of a great forest. Everything seemed peaceful, and there was no thought of danger. The mother sat inside the door sewing, while the child was in the bright sunshine playing. Their large black dog Cuff was the only other member of the family. Suddenly half a dozen Indians fresh from a recent raid on whiskey stood in the doorway and demanded more whisky. The lady had no whisky, but offered them food and drink. The Indians, however, were drunk, and before the mother could interfere the roughest seized the little girl and was making off with her when the dog, which had wandered away a short distance, came bounding back. In an instant he had the savage by the throat and threw him to the ground. The others, having no firearms, beat a hasty retreat. The dog kept a tight grip on the Indian until they had all gone, then released him, and be also departed.—Our Dumb Animals. Good Manners and Quick Wit. The little viscount is receiving a few friends in his bachelor quarters. Among them is Boirean. The latter, having allowed his cigar to go out, throws it without ceremony on the carpet. In order to give him a lesson in good manners the little viscount stoops to pick it up, but Boirean, feigning to misunderstand his intention, interposes: "Oh, leave the butt, my dear fellow. Take a fresh cigar." And he hands him the box.—Paris Figaro. Shirt Signs. "In Brooklyn the other day," said a resident of Manhattan borough, "I saw in the window of a furnishing goods." STORE THIS SIGN: 'Shirt Constructor'. There is a furnishing goods store in New York that displays among other signs, one marked 'Shirter.' There used to be another furnishing goods store in this city with a sign reading, as I remember it, 'Shirt Builder,' but 'Shirt Constructor' is new as far as I know. A fancy dress ball is given once a year by the lady artists, sculptors, singers and actresses of Berlin. No males are permitted at this ball, and about one-third of the attendants go in masculine costume. The yield of wheat in France, owing to the careful cultivation of the soil and the large quantity of guano and other fertilizers employed, is 17 bushels per acre. Two New England Churches. There are Catholic communities, both in America and in the old world, says Alvan F. Sanborn in The Atlantic, where an extreme wretchedness in the dwellings is at once partially explained by the richness and beauty of the churches. But not so in Dickerman. On the contrary, both the Dickerman churches are of a piece with their surroundings. The Congregational church, more than a century old (Orthodox is the name it still goes by), was a worthy structure in its day and would be so yet had it been kept in good repair. Alas, it is only the ghost of its former pretentious self. Its sills are badly rotted. Its spire and belfry have been shattered by lightning and imperfectly restored. Its roof is leaky, the clapboards of its walls are warped and blistered, and its heavy bell, once sweet of tone, is cracked and dissonant. The Baptist church, built only a few years ago, mainly at the expense of a church building society, is one of the shoddily constructed many gabled atrocities due to the malign influence of the so called Queen Anne restoration. Its original coat of paint of many colors has mostly soaked into the surrounding soil. Its panes of stained glass, as they have been broken from time to time, have been replaced by ordinary window glass, with piebald uncanny results. Famous Collection of Antlers.

Of the famous collections of antlers formed in the seventeenth century only two or three have escaped the general fate of conflagrations, sieges and pillages. One of these is in Moritzburg, the king of Saxony's historical hunting castle, near Dresden, while in the celebrated gun gallery in Dresden itself are to be seen, in an unrivaled show, the wonderfully inlaid arms used by the elector. The great banqueting hall of the castle of Moritzburg is one of the sights with which no doubt many a traveled reader has been charmed. It is a chamber of noble proportions—66 feet long by 84 feet wide and 88 feet high. On its otherwise unadorned white walls hang 71 pairs of magnificent antlers, which one may describe as the most famous of their kind in the world. Not a single one carries less than 24 tines or is less than 200 years old, while some are probably double that age.—W A. Raillie-Grohman in Century. Fits Cured From U.S. Journal of Medicine Prof. W.
