FORESTS OF CALIFORNIA. Giant Sequoias that Lift Their Heads Hundreds of Feet in Upright Majesty. He had seen, at Madagascar, bird's feathers, three of which sufficed to make a roof of a house. In New Holland he had seen troops of turkeys and geese led about and guarded by a bird, like a flock by a shepherd's dog. * * On the River Arinos he had determined the existence of the famous bat-shaped people, the Murcillagos, or men who are born with white hair and red eyes, who live in the shady solitudes of the woods, sleep by day, awake by night and fish and hunt in the dark. * * He had seen, in California, a hollow trunk of a tree tall to the ground, so vast that a man on horseback could ride a hundred paces inside. * * These veritable histories bore a strong resemblance to fictions; but they amused Deruchette.—Victor Hugo in "Tolers of the Sea." The forest giants of California have lifted their wreathed heads 400 feet above their foothold, higher than the pyramidal apex of the Bunker Hill obelisk above its base not alone, but higher than is the apex of that monument above the Charlestown tide. In New York harbor is a colossal figure of plates of bronze standing upon a pedestal equally high, a statue so commanding as to excite the admiration of the world. And yet in California, for ages past, trees that have sprung from seeds hidden away in cones so small that one may hold a half-dozen in the hand, have in upright majesty carried their heads farther aloft from the earth than is the uplifted torch in the right hand of Liberty Enlightening the World above the base of the supporting pedestal. There is a tree lying dead in the Calaveras grove that would have cast a shadow upon the high cross above the dome of St. Paul's. Nor are these giants slender like the even taller eucalyptus of Australia, but in every way are they giants—in height, in vigor and in girth. A tower of strength, indeed, is such a tree with a circumference of over 100 feet at its base. So much misapprehension exists, the result of so many conflicting statements concerning these forest monarchs, that to many well-informed students they are half myth of no exact value. Not alone in the imaginative yarns of story-tellers, given to garnishing the greatest truths with greater fiction, but as well in the authoritative works of scientists, men whose reputations purchase for them good opinions, are found widely varying statements concerning these trees. The sizes of the trees vary with the eyes of the men who see them and measure them; their scientific nomenclature conforms to the nationality of the scientist; their ages have been the mark of scientific evergreens and the acute leaves, flattened laterally, are narrow and run down the stem. In neither case are there any low branches, rarely within seventy feet of the base. The branches are ordinarily straight and grow at right angles to the trunk, that is, horizontally; but very often, and it is especially apparent in the younger trees, the limbs acquire a downward trend, as if borne down by the heavy thatch of leaves, giving them to some extent in their relation to the trunk that of the barbs of a broad arrow to its shaft. The height and diameter-of each are very great, though in the latter particular the Big Tree slightly surpasses the redwood. Wherein do they differ? The only congener of the redwood is the Big Tree, yet they choose diametrically different localities for their respective habitats, which merely illustrates the difference of opinion that may exist in any family. The redwood (sequoia sempervirens) occupies the Coast range, where exposed to fog, between parallels of latitude 36 degrees and 42 degrees north, from Monterey to the Oregon State line, and is the most valuable of California woods. It does not thrive where it cannot enjoy a refreshing fog bath, and one careful investigator reports that for a foothold it has a fondness for metamorphic sandstone and none other. A tolerably continuous belt extends from the Pajaro river, to Half Moon bay, but the redwood's domain lies chiefly north of the Russian river; from that stream north for more than a hundred miles-extends its vast forests, for a large part of the distance from ten to fifteen miles in width. The Big Tree (sequoia gigantea) has a far more limited range. It is not found south of latitude 36 degrees, so far as observations have been made, nor north of latitude 38 degrees, 15 minutes, if the Oregon claim is not considered. Since the report of the existence of these wanderers from home (November, 1890), the best that may be said of accessible literature upon the subject is that it is not all voluminous. The sequoia gigantea is reproduced chiefly from the seed, but the redwood saplings are comparatively few, its increase being due to adventitious suckers. It is, indeed, full of vitality and many an old stump defies the destructive lumberman with sprouts, that, hydra-like, spring from destruction. Three hundred feet is about the maximum height of the redwood, and it is somewhat less in girth, too, than the sequoia gigantea. But the latter, with its shorter branches and pendulous branchlets, is the less graceful, and its bark, from one to two feet thick, is duller than the bright cinnamon of the eight or ten inch sheathing of the sequoia sempervirens. The redwood, too, forms projections that are all its own, while its Sierra relative in its favorite habitat is always found in company with other conifers that, in its visited his old refuge. The tree known as the “General Fremont,” is honor of the Pathfinder. Mankind, even in the presence of these patriarchs, does not fail to exhibit its self-importance, for in their hollow trunks may be found, pinned on the walls of wood, thousands of visitors' cards, and audacious vanity hears has carved with its jackknife a record of its fleeting being. Of the sequoia gigantea there are nine groves from north to south and their order—the Calaveras, Stanislaw (South Park). Tuolumne (Crane Flat), Merced, Mariposa, Fresno, Kings and Kaweah rivers (the “giant forest” North Fork of the Tule River), and South Fork of the Tule river; though the southern groves are more proper forests, to be subdivided into growings in time to come. Of these three best known are the Mariposa, Calaveras and Tuolumne groves. In the spring of 1853 there came along the untrodden ways of mountains north and east of Stockton hunter, A. T. Dowd, in pursuit of wounded bear which was perhaps easily making for the tall timber. Some sixteen miles from Murphy’s Camp this giant trees of Calaveras arose before his eyes. The bear was forgotten; for the hunter had turned messenger animal was hastening back to camp with news that would set the world again. In camp he was laughed at as the Muchausen of the forest; but knowing that no man is proof against a bear store he successfully used that as a ruse to induce his friends to visit the grove. I cannot find any convincing evidence that a Caucasian had ever before his astonished eyes upon the sequoia gigantea. It is true that “1850” has been carved upon one of the trees; but the very fact that the carver omitted his name but gave the year gives rise to suspicion that while he may have been ahead of the times in some ways he was decidedly behind in the matter of dates. The Calaveras grove has its home—a depression between two slopes; space some 700 by 3200 feet in size; an elevation of 4750 feet. It has been tween 90 and 100 large trees; several having fallen in the last half century and one, the “Mother of the Forest” has been robbed of its bark to a height of 116 feet. The tree, though dead, has not yet fallen. It is estimated to contain 537,000 feet of lumber. The Calaveras grove is farthest north of those nine (in latitude 38 degrees 15 minutes north and longitude 120 degrees minutes west). In this connection it may not be amiss to note the variety of statistics that have been recorded concerning these giants. I have found considerable difficulty in endeavoring to ascertain the truth; for upon such subjects as these it seems natural to draw up a willing imagination where facts are lacking or fail to suffice. Prof. Josiah Dwight Whitney, the distinguished So much misapprehension exists, the result of so many conflicting statements concerning these forest monarchs, that to many well-informed students they are half myth of no exact value. Not alone in the imaginative yarns of story-tellers, given to garnishing the greatest truths with greater fictions, but as well in the authoritative works of scientists, men whose reputations purchase for them good opinions, are found widely varying statements concerning these trees. The sizes of the trees vary with the eyes of the men who see them and measure them; their scientific nomenclature conforms to the nationality of the scientist; their ages have been the mark of a half century of guessing—scientific, perhaps, but guessing nevertheless. To aid some absurd traditions to a well-earned grave; to comprehend within one article such salient facts about the size, classification, history and habitat as may give some definite idea of these trees, and so far as possible, to separate truth from error in the scientific reports that have been accepted as authoritative; to accomplish these ends by the statement simply of what is true, rather than the contradiction of that which is false, is the object in view. In studying the big trees of California it is first necessary to fix in mind the fact that there are two species, though it is fairly well determined that there is no generic difference. California has a monopoly of many wonderful things; so many, perhaps, that in the centuries to come the wonder traditions in America will be chiefly traced back to it. The largest trees in the world are exclusively indigenous to the Pacific coast, and are practically all in California, though to the north the army of giant redwoods throws out a picket line into Oregon, and a few years ago it was reported that specimens of the sequoia gigantea had also been found in that State. Certainly no great search should be required were the trees present. These two species of tree that list their noble heads, garlanded in leafy green, near to the clouds are scientifically known as the sequoia sempervirens and sequoia gigantea. Just as twin children in a family, having not only a common home and a common name but also a family likeness, are a source of perplexity to careless acquaintances, so the identities of these trees have been confused far and near; today, to mention the great trees of California usually awakens in the mind of the hearer a vision of but one species. Nor is this a subject of wonder if it be considered that the generic name sequoia is often used loosely to designate either, when it is really the intention to be specific; or if it be observed that, as in the instance of a well-known California guide-book, both species are often carelessly called simply "redwoods." The sequoia sempervirens is the common California redwood that thrives near the sea in the ocean fogs. The sequoia gigantea, commonly known as the Big Tree, grows only in the Sierra Nevada mountains. In many ways these monarchs of the forest are alike. They are, of course, both coniferous trees, belonging to the tribe Abietineae and the sub-tribe Taxodiaceae. Their cones are oval and do not ripen until the second year. Straight, tall, columnar in shape, with short densely-spreading branches at the top, they have a likeness to the old circular towers, crowned with green. In each case the bark is thick and fibrous and furrowed longitudinally like a fluted column; the wood, red and soft. They crease being due to adventitious suckers. It is, indeed, full of vitality and many an old stump defies the destructive lumberman with sprouts, that, hydra-like, spring from destruction. Three hundred feet is about the maximum height of the redwood, and it is somewhat less in girth, too, than the sequoia gigantea. But the latter, with its shorter branches and pendulous branchlets, is the less graceful, and its bark, from one to two feet thick, is duller than the bright cinnamon of the eight or ten inch sheathing of the sequoia sempervirens. The redwood, too, forms groves that are all its own, while its Sierra relative in its favorite habitat is always found in company with other conifers that, in its own groves, outnumber it. The diameter of the largest redwood at its base is 22 feet, and that of the Big Tree at least 35 feet; the circumference of the former is not known to exceed 70 feet, while that of a living specimen of the latter is 106 feet; though the greatest height is 300 feet. Congressman Needham and the Visalia board of trade this summer, while in the giant forests, of the Kings river, record viewing a tree 400 feet high, and the dead Father of the Forest in the Calaveras grove must have equaled if not exceeded that. Yet the redwood in its homogeneous forests of hundreds of square miles presents a measureless magnificence that the Big Trees collectively, all found in a total area of less than one hundred square miles cannot hope to equal. What a Forest of Arden these redwoods would make! A forest with every tree of the family royal, 200 hundred feet or more in height, straight and stately, with no indisfiguring branches for 30 yards from the carpet of the grove, each closely wrapped in robes of brilliant cinnamon, and the whole crowned with a continuous canopy of deep vivid green foliage, skylike in its loftiness. Giants, these, in holiday garb, holding up the sky; a forest, immense, awe-inspiring, silent, with no sunlight straying in to disturb daydreams. Very different are these great trees in many ways. The redwood loves the low altitudes; it loves the sea and the fog-wrapped hills of the Coast range. The gigantea in the Sierra chooses its altitude carefully, not above 7000 feet or below 4700, and it is beloved of clear days and sunshine. Nature teaches in both not to despise small beginnings; for the cones of the redwood are the smallest of all cones, being from one to two inches in length, while those of the Big Tree are only from two to three inches long, a size quite modest for the greatest tree in the world. The seeds number from 150 to 200 to a cone, and are brownish and small like parsnip seeds. The cone exudes a dark garnet substance, successfully used by John Muir in the Yosemite one winter as ink. Both trees live to a green old age, but the gigantea is an elder tree if not a better. Prof. Whitney many years ago estimated the ages of these trees from the supposedly annular concentric rings shown in a cross section, and this method has been generally accepted by scientists as correct, though a few insist that a tree might add two or more rings to its circumference in a year. The years of a middle-aged member of the family felled in Calaveras grove were estimated by Prof. Whitney to number 1300, while the patriarchs of the forest probably have double that number of summers to their credit. A pitiful exhibition has been made by Time of the old alleged divine right of human kings, but if such a right be accorded to anything in the mutable universe, surely it belongs to these rulers of the woods that have for all these creases being due to adventitious suckers. It is indeed, full of vitality and many an old stump defies the destructive lumberman with sprouts, that, hydra-like, spring from destruction. Three hundred feet is about the maximum height of the redwood, and it is somewhat less in girth, too than the sequoia gigantea. But the latter with its shorter branches and pendulous branchlets, is the less graceful, and its bark, from one to two feet thick, is duller than the bright cinnamon of the eight or ten inch sheathing of the sequoia sempervirens.

To cut the weed off on the surface, means that the weed is still left to grow. It's just that way with boils, ulcers, eruptions, pimples and similar diseases of the flesh. To cure them you must go to the roots, down into the blood. Mere surface treatment never gets rid of the disease. It will come back at the first opportunity. It is to its wonderful power in the purification of the blood that Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery owes many of its triumphs of healing. It cleanses the blood thoroughly, eliminating all the refuse matter and clears out the waste and poisonous particles which clog the body and so foul the flesh. It eradicates from the blood the conditions which make disease possible. The result is that diseases die out like fires that are unfed. There is no medicine for the blood which is "just as good" as "Golden Medical Discovery." Accept no substitute. "I feel it my duty to write to you of the wonderful curative powers of your 'Golden Medical Discovery.'" writes Geo S. Henderson, Esq., of Denaud, Lee Co., Florida. "I had a bad bruise on my right ear, and my blood was badly out of order. I tried local doctors but with no good results. Finally, I wrote you the particular in my case, and you advised your 'Golden Medical Discovery,' which I began to take. From the first bottle I began to feel better, and when I had taken eight bottles the sore was healed up. I wish you success." Free.

The years of a middle-aged member of the family felled in Calaveras grove were estimated by Prof. Whitney to number 1300, while the patriarchs of the forest probably have double that number of summers to their credit. A pitiful exhibition has been made by Time of the old alleged divine right of human kings, but if such a right be accorded to anything in the mutable universe, surely it belongs to these rulers of the woods that have for all these centuries withstood the destroying zeal of Time and its change-working seasons; have seen the living world made and unmade and made again, and through it all stood dignified, upright, unmindful of birth and death alike. Very ridiculous, indeed, by contrast are the lives of the blood of human kings; some of these trees were giants when the houses of Hanover and Hohenzollern were, perhaps, partly of Greenland and partly of Cathay. When the Queen of Sheba journeyed to visit Solomon they were braving their first winters; when Demosthenes was delivering his splendid philippies these trees had assumed the stature of giants. The idea of March that saw the death of Caesar may have looked upon the spring of their maturity. When Mohammed was offering the world its choice between the Koran and the sword, some had attained middle age. Age was, perhaps, telling on them slightly when King John was granting the Magna Charta and Genghis Khan entering Pekin in triumph, and when Columbus set foot on Salvador, a few may have begun to lose their pristine vigor; yet here they stand today alive, and at their feet Time will lay the tribute of generation after generation to come. The great redwood trees are in easy reach, a grove of the largest being within a dozen steps of the station on the narrow-gauge line of the Southern Pacific company between San Francisco and Santa Cruz, 74 miles from the metropolis and 6 miles from the pretty seaside town of Santa Cruz. The drive to the trees from the latter point up the canyon is one of the most beautiful in California. The tallest of the Santa Cruz group is about 275 feet high, has a diameter at the base of 20 feet and is (at the base) 70 feet in circumference. There are several other trees nearly as large. Many, as are also their brethren of the Sierra, are hollow at the foot, and upon his famous first trip across the Rockies in 1847, General Fremont camped in one of them. Years afterward he returned with his family and tion with other pursuits, there are large numbers of them located in off and almost inaccessible places. From these the strained honey points and finds its way to market. Up the canyons, especially in the southern part of the State, wherever a life streamlet comes trickling down, there are bee ranches located. There is white sage, from which the best honey is made—the pure orange honey abounds, as also multitudes of other honey producing plants. In hundreds of hives up and down these streams busy workers store up large quantities of honey of most excellent quality. At many of these ranches separates are used and the proprietors have come wonderfully wise in the bee louse. A visit to those rural apiaries and hour's talk with those in charge makes anyone interested in the various phases of humanity, wiser and better. As the demand for honey is constantly increasing one, there is no reason why this industry may not be wide extended. Almost perfect conditions for tobacco culture are found in California. As experiments have been made with varying results, and it is safe to say that no very distant future tobacco will come a profitable industry. The nation's new tobacco possessions may be slowly delaying the time, but it will continue. The State is rich in clays. Not only are there large beds of blue clay, bricks and coarse pottery, but there are large deposits of kaolin and other fine clays. An examination of the mineral reef will show that large quantities of coarser clays are now utilized, and effort is now being made in an humble way to call public attention to the viability of a largely paying industry working in finer qualities. The Red Pottery in San Francisco is turning most beautiful products, artistic form and elegantly decorated. This seems to be no reason why all the flares cannot be produced. Judicious investment of a little cap seems all that is necessary. The fact that in a large part of State the harder vegetables go through the winter makes California an ideal place for market garden Cabbage, cauliflower, sprouts, celery One Girl Who Was Saved Miss Frankie Hathaway, of Sixteenth Street, Holland, Mich., says: "I am twenty-one years old, at sixteen I was pale and weak. By the time I was nineteen years old I was so weak I could not walk across the floor. I was terribly emaciated and my skin had lost all color. The doctor pronounced the disease anaemia. Being advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, I bought a box, and before I had taken all of the pills found that they were doing me good. Appetite increased and the healthy color began to show in my cheeks and lips. I continued to use the pills until I found myself permanently cured. Since then I have had no return of my old trouble. I know that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People saved my life and I believe that no other medicine could have done it."—From Ottawa Times, Holland, Mich. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People contain, in a condensed form, all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They are an unfailing specific for such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the after-effects of the grip, palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions, and all forms of weakness either in male or female. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People are never sold by the dozen or hundred, but always in packages. At all druggists, or direct from the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N.

These the strained honey is out on donkeys to shipping and finds its way to market. Far canyons, especially in the south. There is a large number of mineral springs from which waters are shipped through the winter and until late in the spring. Of these there are now shipped out of the State between four and five thousand carloads. Most of these go to the mountain States, but they are gradually creeping farther eastward and it is only a question of a short time when consumers of garden truck everywhere will demand the California product, the same as they do now California fruit. In the production of celery no competition is feared, as the yield is abundant and the quality unexcelled. The rich peat soils seem to be exactly adapted to the growth of celery, and in some places solid fields may be found containing six or seven hundred acres. It is estimated that about 700 carloads were shipped from Southern California last year to the Kansas City and Chicago markets at a handsome-profit. Much more extensive shipments may be counted upon in the immediate future, as the industry is growing rapidly. But little is done in this line, though large fields of buhach are grown, for which, when prepared as insect powder, there is a ready market. In native medicinal herbs the State abounds, and besides those consumed here large quantities are exported and enter into the composition of some of the most valuable remedial agents.

Hybridizing is easy and fruit bears so young that tests are possible with little waiting. A large number of new fruits have been imported from Japan, and led by our world-renowned Burbank, new fruits are being constantly produced many of them of great value. A catalogue of new fruits produced in California would be a large one, and would comprise many most valuable varieties. Mineral springs in California may be numbered by thousands. Comparatively few of them have been exploited, but there are several hundred that have become resorts, either for health or pleasure, and of these many are known to be of great medicinal value. Probably more than two hundred of the waters have been analyzed, showing the mineral and gaseous matter contained in each, and upon these analyses a safe predication can be made of their remedial value. The gaseous matter is largely carbonic acid and sulphuruted hydrogen. Free sulphuric, hydrochloric and nitric acid are often found, and in addition to the minerals usually found in such springs, iodine and brorine also abound. In temperature these springs run the full gamut from say 40 degrees to 212 degrees Fahrenheit. And singularly enough this variation of temperature is sometimes found in springs but a few feet apart. At the springs that have been most widely tested summer and health resorts have been established, all of which become veritable meccas to those who, diseased in body or disturbed in mind, need the soothing influence of nature's kindly hand. Among the most striking of these natural outlets are the hot mud springs.

BlIND GUIDES. Blindness is one of the saddest misfortunes that can befall a human being. But there is a time when blindness stamps the blind as a criminal. That time is when the blind man undertakes leadership. Imagine the situation. Wekand suffering women, blind as to their own needs, put their hands in confiance into the hand of some self styled leader, with the result that both fall into the ditch of failure, and she; poor thing; staggers on a few more paces only to fall into the last ditch, "house appointed for all living." AN EXPERIENCED EXPERT NEEDED Let us drop all figures of speech and face the facts frankly. Here are thousands of people suffering from disease of one form or another. The cry of the sufferer is for some one to lead him out of this desert of disease into the promised land of health. Here is Dr. R. V. Pierce, OF Buffalo,N.Y., who has a record of more than a quarter of a million cases and 65 out of every hundred led to perfect health. An experience of thirty years as chief consulting physician to the Invaluable' Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buffalo,N.Y., guarantees him to be familiar with every phase and form of disease! But consumption! Is that cured too by Dr. Pierce's medicines? Among the hopeless (so-called) cases were those who had night-sweats,the hectic flush,the hacking cough,the racked lungs,and the emaciated,或wased body，which are accepted symptoms of consumption.Their home physicians said had consumption. Yet these same people treated years ago,have lost the night-sweats,Lost lung pains,Have regained their normal weight,and are living right along in the heart enjoymentof a healthy,happy life They eat well,sleep well,and enjoy life.Perhaps their days are numbered.But if the number is three score and ten they live a life FULL OF HEALTHY ENJOYMENT. Hife might as well end by consumption as by any other disease.Dr Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has produced such results in thousands of cases. Mr John G.Born ,4020 Liberty Ave.,Pittsburgh,Pa., writes:"Some thirty months ago I said to my wife,"I don't want to keep anything from you.I must tell you I am in the last stageOf consumption.In December.I received Dr Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.I have taken thirteen bottles,and can say with truth I am greatly benefited.People are surprised to hear me speak.I can halloou,my voice has not been as good in eight years.My stomach was never in better condition.I normally cannot eat about suffering very much immediately.Abut now I can eat anything.I am also greatly relieved of that distressing suffocation. Three months ago I was talking to a man inthe shop when another person,我 overhead me was greatly surprised that I could speak so loud.as for three years I could not speak above a whisper.Junior brenchitis for eighteen years and I was treated by three physicians but all failed."writes David Wartzenluft ,Esq.,of Shoemakersville,Berkshire Co.,Pa."They told me there was no cure for me.I suffered from indigestion,and I became ill.Recorded it to the public."For sale by Dear SUMMONS.

In hundreds runs up and down these streams the workers store up large quantities of most excellent quality. Many of these ranches separators and the proprietors have wonderfully wise in the bore lore. To those rural apiaries and an talk with those in charge will anyone interested in the various aspects of humanity, wiser and better. The demand for honey is a constant peeling one, there is no reason this industry may not be widely used. Most perfect conditions for tobacco are found in California. A few elements have been made with varying results, and it is safe to say that in many distant future tobacco will be a profitable industry. The new tobacco possessions may postelay the time, but it will come. State is rich in clays. Not only are large beds of blue clay, for sale and coarse pottery, but there are large deposits of kaolin and other ways. Examination of the mineral report now that large quantities of the clays are now utilized, and an analysis now being made in an humble call public attention to the position of a largely paying industry in the finer qualities. The Robin in San Francisco is turning out beautiful products, artistic and elegantly decorated. There to be no reason why all the finer cannot be produced.
