The Assembly has before it a bill to secure to native born and naturalized citizens of the United States the exclusive right to labor on public works in this State.It provides: WOMEN'S SECRETS. There is one man in the United States who has perhaps heard more women's secrets than any other man or woman in the country. These secrets are not secrets of guilt or shame, but the secrets of suffering, and they have been confided to Dr. R. V. Pierce in the hope and expectation of advice and help. That few of these women have been disappointed in their expectations is proved by the fact that ninety-eight per cent. of all women treated by Dr. Pierce have been absolutely and altogether cured. Such a record would be remarkable if the cases treated were numbered by hundreds only. But when that record applies to the treatment of more than half-a-million women, in a practice of over thirty years, it is phenomenal, and entitles Dr. Pierce to the gratitude accorded him by women, and the honor paid him by the profession as the first of specialists in the treatment of women's diseases. Every sick woman may consult Dr. Pierce by letter, absolutely without charge. Every woman's letter which contains her secret remains her secret. It is read in private, answered in private, and its contents guarded as a sacred confidence. That no third party should enter into this secret, all replies are mailed, sealed in perfectly plain envelopes, with out any printing or advertising whatever, upon them. Write without fear as without fee, to Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription makes Weak Women Strong and Sick Women Well. The Senate has also before it a bill relating to the validity of the meetings of corporations, as follows: When all the directors, stockholders, or members of the corporation are present at any meeting, however called or notified, and sign a written assent thereto on the record of such meeting, the doings of such meeting are as valid as if had at a meeting legally called and noticed. The Assembly has before it a bill to secure to native born and naturalized citizens of the United States the exclusive right to labor on public works in this State. It provides: Section 1. No person, except a native born or naturalized citizen of the United States, shall be employed as a common laborer, or as a mechanic, or skilled laborer, on any public work or improvements carried on by the state of California, or by any county, or incorporated city or town, or by any township, or by any road district, or by any irrigation district, or school district, or other political subdivision of the state. Sec. 2. Every person taking a contract from the state, or from any county, or city and county, or incorporated city or town, or from any township, or road district, or other political subdivision of the state, to perform any public work, or make any public improvements, shall give bonds to employ no persons except native born or naturalized citizens of the United States as common laborers, or as mechanics, or skilled laborers, in the prosecution of such public works or improvements. The amount of such bonds shall be equal in all cases to the amount stipulated in the contract, as payment for the work to be done. Whenever a contractor shall violate the provisions of section one of this act, any citizen may commence suit for the forfeiture of said bond, and shall receive twenty-five per cent of the amount recovered. Sec. 3. No money shall be paid out of the state treasury, or out of the treasury of any county, or city and county, or incorporated city or town, or township, or road district, or school district, or irrigation district, or political subdivision of the state; for labor performed on any public work or public improvement by persons who are not either native born or naturalized citizens of the United States. No money shall be paid out of said treasuries to persons who have taken contracts to perform any public work, or make any public improvement, who shall employ persons who are not native born or naturalized citizens of the United States as common laborers, or as mechanics, or skilled laborers in the performance of such public works, or For La Grippe. Thomas Whitefield & Co., 240 Wash av., corner Jackson st., one Chicago's oldest and most prominent druggists, recommend Chamberlain Cough Remedy for la grippe, as it only gives a prompt and complete relief but also counteracts any tendency of la grippe to result in pneumonia. Sale by P. A. Derge. After Effects of the GRIP Grip is a treacherous disease. You think it is cured and the slightest cold brings on a relapse. Its victims are always left in a weakened condition—blood impure and impoverished; nerves shattered. Pneumonia, heart disease and nervous prostration are often the result. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People will drive every trace of the poisonous germs from the system, build up and enrich the blood and strengthen the nerves. A trial will prove this. Read the evidence: When the grip last visited this section Herman H. Eveiler, of Still W. Main St., Jefferson, Mo., a well-known contractor and builder, was one of the victims, and he has since been troubled with the after-effects of the disease. A year ago his health began to fall, and he was obliged to discontinue work. That he lives to-day is almost a miracle. He says: "I was troubled with shortness of breath, palpitation of the heart and a general debility. My back also pained me severely." "I tried one doctor after another and numerous remedies suggested by my friends, but without apparent benefit, and began to give up hope. Then I saw Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People extolled in a St. Louis paper, and after investigation decided to give them a trial." "After using the first box I felt wonderfully relieved and was satisfied that the pills were putting me on the road to recovery. I bought two more boxes and continued taking them." "After taking four boxes of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People I am restored to good health. I feel like a new man, and having the will and energy of my former days returned, I am capable of transacting my business with increased ambition." "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People are a wonderful medicine and any one suffering from the after-effects of the grip will find that these pills are the specific." H.H. EveLER. Mr. Eveler will gladly answer any inquiry regarding this if stamp is enclosed.—From Cole Co., Demoorat, Jefferson City, Mo. Look for the full name on the package.

The method of doing this with young trees was already been described under the head of propagation. The olive may be grafted by almost any of the methods used for other fruit trees; but they are not to be recommended except when, in the case of young seedlings, the craft can be made below the surface of the ground. For large trees, when it desired to change the variety, budding is to be preferred. Budding succeeds well if done at the right time and under the proper conditions. The essential points are that the bud must be taken from good healthy wood, and inserted in a vigorous shoot. Most of the failures in budding result from using a shoot of low vitality as a stock. In order to insure roots of sufficient vigor to start a bud, the tree which is to be budded should be pruned severely the year before. The tree is large it is advisable to cut back only half the branches the first year. The following spring the pruned branches will send out a number of vigorous shoots, the best of which may be budded. The following winter the rest of the branches should be cut back and the budding completed the second summer. In this way the tree does not receive so rude a shock as all the branches were cut back the same year. The ordinary T-bud succeeds very well on the olive, though some prefer the shield-bud. For the solon a dormant bud in the axil of a leaf may be taken, as is usually done for other plants. With the olive, however, twig-ads are more successful. It must be cut deeply with a sharp knife and part of the wood removed before insertion into the stock. Also about two-thirds of each leaf on the twig-bud should be cut to prevent drying out by too much vaporization. The bud is inserted in the usual way, and tied by winding a cotton string tightly around the stock with above and below the bud so as to ever up all the out parts. Dangers of the Grip. The greatest danger from La Grippe of its resulting in pneumonia. If away. I hear there’s some as say it weren’t no fight.

Our ships was there to hit, as well they knows. But, bless their hearts! we'd licked 'em, list the same. If they'd had gunners picked from all that grows.

A duel in which Bismarck was once engaged had a very amusing origin. It occurred when he was chief secretary of the Prussian legation at Frankfurt. He went much into society, and one Christmas attended a big ball. During the height of the festivities Bismarck's attention was directed to an exceedingly pompous individual who strutted about the room. This was a M. de Clancy, a noted French duelist. Later on this important individual took part in a dance, but having omitted to leave his hat at the proper place had perforce to hold it out almost at arm's length while he danced. The spectacle tickled Bismarck immensely, and as the Frenchman came sailing majestically along Bismarck stepped forward and dropped a coin into the hat. A duel was one of the next days' events. Though it was with pistols Bismarck escaped unhurt, while his adversary was wounded. Seeing the Sights. Even in these days of liberal education young women sometimes show how confused are the ideas shut up in their heads. Illustrative of this is naive blunder which Edmondo de Amici recounts in his story of a voyage from Genoa to Buenos Aires: The captain of the steamer which numbered the charming young blunderer among its passengers met her one morning and said: "Signorina, we cross the tropic of cancer,today."
