COSTIGAN THE RENEGADE By Ewan Macpherson "Of all the cowardly desertions of principle I ever beard of in my life, Costigan"— "Oh, you don't know what you're talking about, man." Costigan retorted, jamming his foot hard against the edge of the window sill and using the leverage of it to tilt his chair back on its hind legs. "Just you wait." Costigan was really taking the "calling down" of his friend very patiently for a man with the reputation of a quick temper. You might account for this patience, if you chose, by the intimacy between the two that had grown up in nearly three years of common detestation of the average boarding house, in dining together seven days every week at restaurants chosen by common consent, and in the occupation of furnished rooms in the same house, where they contended with the landlord as one man. Lastly—here was the most important bond of union between Costigan and Muller—they had long since talked over together the great question of woman's proper place in the order of things and had cordially agreed that it was nowhere. Naturally, Muller felt aggrieved when he caught Costigan twice strolling in shady places with a blooming, brown haired young member of the reprobated sex, whose eyes had a dangerous way of smiling at one without losing a certain suggestion of sadness. Muller waited a minute to ruminate on the possible hidden meanings of his friend's last saying. Then he veered around and with more asperity of tone and manner said: "If I don't know what I'm talking about, why in thunder don't you put me right? It she a typewriter?"" "I regret to notice in you of late, Muller, an unpleasant use of vulgar slang. No, you did not get it from me. I avoid all—all such marks of—toughness." "That is, you have been trying to for the last three weeks—since you got chance about three years ago. We thought we had ideas in common." There was a strong emphasis on the word "thought," which Muller meant to be very impressive. He made a poor pretense of eating, but the same cowardly regard for conventionalities which had forced him to apologize for upsetting her sandwiches drove him on to offer to walk with her in the direction of her office. And that was how it came to pass that the head office boy saw them and made unusual haste to get back to the office to tell that he had seen her. "Yep. She's a peach, I tell you. They come all the way from Tabster's together." Nor was the head office boy the only person who saw Muller in that short transit. When he entered the office, his desk mate was there to receive him. "Muller, I want to beg your pardon for saying you were dupy this morning. I see it was something more respectable, by a long shot." "I don't know what you mean," said Muller, in a tone that seemed to bode war. But hostilities were prevented by the arrival of a caller for Mr. Muller. Muller went out from the inner office in a mood to make a most unfavorable impression on any chance visitor. It was Costigan. "Oh, I saw you," said Costigan. "Now what have you got to say?" "You saw us, did you? Well, what I have to say is that this young person got up so close behind me that I couldn't move without spilling a pint of coffee over her." "Yes; but it was all your fault, you know, Muller. You said so yourself. Never mind, old man. You're forgiven. When I passed you, you two looked so affectionate that it seemed a pity to interrupt." Just then the first assistant office boy came out with his ears pricked and caught a few words, which were daily reported a minute later. "I was coming, anyhow, to ask you a favor." "A favor," replied Muller, fearing the worst. "Yes. I told you you didn't know what you were talking about. Why didn't you wait and let me tell you last night? Do you know what made me join you in your hostility to the sex? Come over here and listen. My wife—yes, I thought you would start—my wife and I quarreled four years ago. We were divorced, and I was afterward told she had married another man, who—who isn't worth talking about. Now, don't you understand? OLINDA CRUDE MAKES CLEAN SWEET All the Old Employees Discharged—New Superintendent Expected to Inaugurate a More Profitable Policy. The latest bit of news from the field is to the effect that there has been a general shaking up among the employees of the Olinda Oil company. The field force has been discharged, and from Superintendent Perkins down the rostabout they have all walked out. Whether all of these employees are to remain discharged or not remains to be seen, but it is understated that J. McDonald, late foreman for Santa Fe company, is to be the superintendent. What such a clean sweep means is only be assumed. For more than year the company has been drilled away, but have never produced any oil. The Olinda territory is conceded to good oil territory, so far as can be judged from the general formation of the oil field and the surface indication on the Olinda Crude company's land and if any excuse had to be found in the wholesale discharge of workmeets might be found in this statement conditions. But it appears as if no kind of hoodoo attached to the Olinda territory. The Richfield Oil company drilled the first well and then sold to another company. This second company began on another well and sold out. This last corporation had a try for oil, and then it, too came discouraged and sold out to Olinda Crude company. The first well sunk (by the Richfield company) was carried down somewhere about 1100 feet, and a little light showed. The second was drilled about 1550 feet with a showing off the third was only drilled to about feet. The Olinda Crude is now being begun about a month Well No. 4 was abaudoned, leaving 6" as possible producers. All this dead work has meant very high expenditures, for which there is no ing to show but certain holes in ground, and the situation is made more annoying by reason of the that close to Olinda ground good ducing wells are making handsome turns. It is true, however, that Columbia Oil company leases 320 acres from the Olinda, and the Fulll Consolidated about 50 acres, and royalties received from these lands... Muller waited a minute to ruminate on the possible hidden meanings of his friend's last saying. Then he veered around and with more aspect of tone and manner said: "If I don't know what I'm talking about, why in thunder don't you put me right? It she a typewriter?" "I regret to notice in you of late, Muller, an unpleasant use of vulgar slang. No, you did not get it from me. I avoid all—all such marks of—of toughness." "That is, you have been trying to for the last three weeks—since you got stuck on this typewriter." "Typewriter is not a description of any class of woman. It is the name of a machine. The lady you refer to is a typester. I met her—found her in a large insurance office down town." "And after all you have said about women and marrying and all that sort of thing you went and fell in love with her, and—Oh, Costigan!" "I repeat, Muller, that you don't know what you are talking about. Fate brought us together." "Whew!" Muller whistled aloud in consternation at these last words, as if to say, "Is it as bad as that?" And then, picking up the evening paper he had brought into Costigan's room, he retreated to his own. But man is at best a plaything of fate. Muller, the morning after this conversation, was troubled and distrait. His fellow clerk at the office remarked that he looked "dopy." The senior office boy and factotum, who had his own way of interpreting signs, grinned and whispered that Mr. Muller must have fallen in love, and he even succeeded in spreading that view of the situation. And when Muller went out to "get a bite" he picked things up from the lunch counter in an indiscriminate way that made the attendants stare at him. At last he turned away from the counter blindly and ran into the person who happened to be standing next behind him; and, lo, it was a woman! "I—I beg your pardon," he began, in expressibly humiliated by the necessity of apologizing to one of that sex. He took refuge in a stooping attitude, collecting sandwiches from off the tiled floor. The inopportune female was down there just as fast as he was, only she was laughing. "Don't mention it"—laugh "accidents can't always be"—more laughing—I believe you've taken my sandwich by mistake. Mine was bee—bee"—The rest was lost in a hopeless outburst. With about fifteen people waiting to get at that particular part of the counter which they were obstructing, and several dozens more watching and thoroughly enjoying the proceedings, Muller felt that he could not bear to remain on that tiled spot crawling about in search of demoralized sand-wiches. He got up and faced the enemy. He recognized her. She was "the woman"—she who had entrapped Costigan—Costigan's "typester." Really, I'm extremely sorry for having got in your way, Mr. Muller. She had his name pat. That renegade Costigan must have told her all about him. It was a splendid opportunity for Muller to display the courage of his convictions. The convictions were The Red Hunting Coat. It is said that one of the early Henrys was so enamored of the sport of fox hunting as to ordain it to be a royal sport, and the red coat was worn in consequence. This, however, has been pointed at as absurd, as in those days scarlet was not a royal livery at all. One thing can be no doubt about, and that is the scarlet coat is very popular for those who hunt regularly, and it must be confessed that it adds picturesqueness to the scene. The question of color seems to be very much a matter of taste. It is looked upon as an indication of social position. In the abstract any one can don the pink if so desired, but it is considered out of taste to adopt that color if one does not liberally subscribe to the hunt fund. The black coat is considered out of taste to adopt that color and the ordinary muffi garment for those whose subscription is very small indeed.—London Standard. Gum Gathering. In Yucatan the gathering of the famous chicle chewing gum is an occupation apparently full of romance, not unattended with considerable danger. Bands of men, known as "chicles," go into the deep forests, under experienced leaders, armed with heavy knives of special make, palls and ladles for the sap, and each provided with a strong rope more than eighty feet long to be used in climbing the lofty sapota trees from which the gum is procured. The sap flows from gashes cut in the bark. A camp of chicles where the sap is boiled resembles in some respects an American maple sugar camp. After months of work the chicles' return from the forests laden with bricklike blocks of aromatic gum. The finest gum, known as "slete," is collected from the fruit of the sapota, mostly by the native women, and is seldom exported because it is too well liked at home. "A favor," replied Muller, fearing the worst. Yes. I told you you didn't know what you were talking about. Why didn't you wait and let me tell you last night? Do you know what made me join you in your hostility to the sex? Come over here and listen. My wife—yes, I thought you would start—my wife and I quarreled four years ago. We were divorced, and I was afterward told she had married another man, who—who isn't worth talking about. Now, don't you understand? Why, she has been here in New York, typing, for months and months. I found her by a mere accident—just like your running into her. She never married anybody else, and never would. She's going to marry me again, and you are going to be my best man." Muller went back into the inner office smiling so sweetly that he was saluted with a general grin, but he held his peace. When he went to "the old man" to see about getting away early, he was met with: "Certainly, Mr. Muller. But why this suddenness? Why couldn't you have let it out sooner?" It was very embarrassing to him to have to explain that he was going to be groomsman, not groom—this time.

Southern California's future. J.E. Alexander of New York, ney for the Collis P. Huntingtate, has arrived in Salt Lake and the statement that Harriman finish up his Pacific coast work will the next two weeks. He said: "Harriman tells me that the Line will be rushed through from Southern California as fast as able. He is well aware of the people of Los Angeles and Lake are anxious for such a road built, but he doubts very much they know how much it means to Los Angeles has been making trips strides during the past three or more. Salt Lake is growing rapidly With railroad connection direct will both go forward with leased bounds. "It is marvelous how many people have wintered in Southern California this year. It is fast because a great Mecca for them. Through completion of the new road that will be hurried through, a mighty train that empire, for that is what Harriman probably sees as far in future as any man, and wants to be paired for the good and big shirts."

Bird and Kattler Ralph Parmanteer, a student in rural history in the Santa Barbara school, had an opportunity receiving a mortal combat in ter which they were obstructing, and several dozens more watching and thoroughly enjoying the proceedings, Muller felt that he could not bear to remain on that tiled spot crawling about in search of demoralized sandwiches. He got up and faced the enemy. He recognized her. She was "the woman"—she who had entrapped Costigan—Costigan's "typester." "Really, I'm extremely sorry for having got in your way, Mr. Muller." She had his name pat. That renegade Costigan must have told her all about him. It was a splendid opportunity for Muller to display the courage of his convictions. The convictions were there, but the courage was not to be found. He could only stammer: "Oh, not at all. All my fault. You must let me get you some more beef—was it beef sandwiches you said?" Then he said within his heart that he was a liar and a hypocrite and that his moral degradation had begun as soon as he had run into this woman. For her part, she actually seemed to enjoy the adventure, which struck Muller as downright brazen. "You see, I happen to be in a laughing mood today," she had the impudence to say, and she went on to ask him a dozen questions about his acquaintance with Costigan—how long it had lasted, and whether they had ever met before Mr. Costigan came to New York. "No." he said: "we only met by Miss Alice Roosevelt's cane is the talk of the capital. One day last week she carried it while she received with her mother at the White House lawn party, which the rain made an indoor function. It is of bamboo, light and short, and boasts of a silver ferrule as well as a jaunty silver head. No Loss of Time. "I have sold Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy for years, and would rather be out of coffee and sugar than it. I sold five bottles of it yesterday to threshers that could go no farther, and they are at work again this morning."—H. R. Phelps, Plymouth, Oklahoma. As will be seen by the above, the threshers were able to keep on with their work without losing a single day's time. You should keep a bottle of this remedy in your home. For sale by all druggists.

An experienced candy maker advises that there should be nothing boiling on the stove to throw off steam while sugar is cooking for fondant and that in the summer season a damp, rainy day should not be selected for the work. Uncooked fondant is much easier to make than the cooked, but needs to be used at once to be satisfactory. Measure out water equal to the whites of two unbeaten eggs. Beat the eggs to a froth, add the water and gradually beat in confectioners' sugar until there is a paste that can be handled. This fondant makes the base for unlimited combinations of sweets. For Those Who Live on Farms. Dr. Bergin, Pana, Ill., writes: "I have used Ballard's Snow Liniment; always recommend it to my friends, as I am confident there is no better made. It is a dandy for burns." Those who live on farms are especially liable to many accidental cuts, burns and bruises, which heal rapidly when Ballard's Snow Liniment is applied. It should always be kept in the house for cases of emergency. 25c, 50c and $1 at Watson & Lounsberry's. Ladies of the Cabinet circle have discussed during the week at informal afternoon teas the exquisite needlework upon which the first lady in the land is engaged at the White House. The daltry garments are just such as were worn by the five little Roosevelts in the tenderest period of their infancy. Perhaps they are intended as a gift to some one outside of the President's family, but it is intimated that the garments are to be sent to Oyster Bay, where Mrs. Roosevelt and her children are to go at the end of June to spend the summer.

Bird and Kattler Ralph Parmanteer, a student in urinary history in the Santa Barbara school, had an opportunity receiving a mortal combat in between a road-runner and a snake. The combat was a flare and resulted at the end of a half-fighting in the death of the rattler. Parmanteer noticed the bird being at something on a hillside, ing near the spot he heard the rattler and saw the fight. The legged bird circled about its now and again darting close to driving a sharp beak at the head whenever that reptile was just before striking. The bird played great skill in keeping reach of the fangs. At last, snake became exhausted, the runner struck it in face, both eyes. Yet the rattler blindly at its enemy. When it killed the snake it walked off snake watched every movement bird, while the bird felited and hither and thither seeking an o Keep the Balance Up.

CRUDE MAKES CLEAN SWEEP Hold Employees Discharged—New Superendant Expected to Inaugurate a More Profitable Policy. The latest bit of news from the oil to the effect that there has been real shaking up among the employees of the Olinda Oil company. The force has been discharged, and Superintendent Perkins down to mustabout they have all walked. Whether all of these employees remain discharged or not rebe seen, but it is understood McDonald, late foreman for the fire company, is to be the superent. It such a clean sweep means can be assumed. For more than a company has been drilling but have never produced any oil. Olinda territory is conceded to be oil territory, so far as can be from the general formation of field and the surface indications of Olinda Crude company's land, many excuse had to be found for wholesale discharge of workmen it be found in this statement of consults. But it appears as if some of a hoodoo attached to the Olinda 窑ry. The Richfield Oil company is the first well and then sold out other company. This second combegan on another well and also out. This last corporation also try for oil, and then it, too, bediscouraged and sold out, to the Arude公司. First well sunk (by the Richfield 窑ry) was carried down somewhere 1100 feet, and a little light oil. The second was drilled to 1550 feet with a showing of oil; third was only drilled to about 800. The Olinda Crude is now working Nos. 5 and 6, the last one haveseen begun about a month ago. No. 4 was abandoned, leaving 5 as possible producers. All of head work has meant very heavy dirtures, for which there is nothso show but certain holes in the road, and the situation is made the annoying by reason of the fact close to Olinda ground good progems are making handsome rer. It is true, however, that the Olinda Oil company leases 320 acres the Olinda, and the Fullerton olidated about 50 acres, and the ties received from these leasing SAN DIEGO WOULD ANNEX ARIZONA One of the Queer Schemes of the County to the South of Us. San Diego is undoubtedly the most prolific city in schemes on the Coast. Not all of them work out, but a new crop is always sprouting to take the place of those an untimely frost may have cut off. The very latest project is the annexation of the county to Arizona. The Union of a recent date, says: "Recent idle talk about the possibility of securing the separation of San Diego county from the rest of California, and of having it annexed to Arizona, has crept into the papers and into the dispatches to such an extent that the people of Arizona are becoming a little excited over the proposition. That it would be a good thing for both Arizona and San Diego county none doubt here, and it seems that the Arizona folks would be just as well pleased. "A number of letters have been received in San Diego from Arizona friends asking that information be forwarded as to what steps had been taken here or were likely to be taken. One of the letters was received by Secretary Wood of the Chamber of Commerce from L. H. Hamilton, the secretary of the Phoenix Board of Trade. "Mr. Hamilton was anxious to know if the proposition was on the square, and if the people of San Diego were in earnest on the subject. He enclosed a clipping from one of the Phoenix papers referring to the agitation of the question which had been commenced in San Diego." San Diego seems to think it would be a fine thing to be the seaport of the new State of Arizona, with through connections to Yuma and Phoenix, by the San Diego and Eastern railroad. There would be no question of competing with San Pedro or Santa Monica; San Diego would be the whole thing so far as port for Arizona was concerned. And whatever the River and Harbor bill provided would be spent there. And then some of the ambitious politicians think they might fare better in Arizona than California, or in a future State of Southern California. One northern paper says that "San Diego could not bear the idea of the State capitol being located at Los Angeles, and this seemed to be the most available location in case anything was done. Rather than permit Los Angeles to become the capitol, San Diego would rather be annexed to Mexico or turned loose entirely." FACTS ABOUT ANAHEIM Sketch of the industries and resources or this Most Beautiful Part of California. The City of Anaheim, with a population of 2500, is situated in the northern part of Orange county, in Southern California, 12 miles from the ocean, 4½ miles from the foothills, and 148½ feet above sea level. It is 27 miles from Los Angeles, the second largest city in the State of California. The climatic conditions are the most favorable for out-door life to be found in Southern California. The temperature is extremely uniform, seldom rising above 90 degrees in summer, or falling below 32 degrees in winter. The abundance of sunlight and the absence of sharp frosts and cold winds make it a place especially acceptable to those desiring to escape the severe climate of the east. The country is very attractive. It is practically level, with just sufficient slope from the hills to afford adequate drainage. The roads are level, well graded, and well kept, affording excellent opportunities for cycling and driving. The soil is a rich sandy loam which never bakes, making it a very easy ground to work; thus lending itself readily to the cultivation of berries, nuts, oranges, etc. The variety of products, and the possibility of procuring small tracts of land at low figures, and on easy terms, make our section of the county very attractive and advantageous for truck raising, or for farming on a small scale. The following are a few of the products: oranges, lemons, walnuts, grapes, peaches, apricots, sugar beets, berries and vegetables of all kinds. Anaheim is the possessor of a Building and Loan Association, Water company, two railroads, fruit cannery and drier, large oil industry, ostrich farm, bank, several adequate commercial houses, two hotels and newspapers. The city also owns its water and lighting plant. To Build Up a Community No man in California is better acquainted with the resources and advantages of the great State of California than is W. H. Mills, and no man Southern California's Future. E. Alexander of New York, attorfor the Collis P. Huntington eshall arrived in Salt Lake and made statement that Harriman would chip up his Pacific coast work within next two weeks. He said: Harriman tells me that the Short will be rushed through from Utah southern California as fast as postion. He is well aware of the fact that people of Los Angeles and Salt are anxious for such a road to be but he doubts very much that know how much it means to them. Angles has been making tremenstrides during the past three years. Salt Lake is growing rapidly, with railroad connection direct, they both go forward with leaps and roads. It is marvelous how many eastern hone have winted in Southern Calinia this year. It is fast becoming the Mecca for them. Through the pletion of the new road that is to hurried through, a mighty population will be poured each winter into a empire, for that is what it is. Harriman probably sees as far into the fire as any man, and wants to be prepared for the good and big things to do. World Wide Reputation.

Rather than permit Los Angeles to become the capitol, San Diego would rather be annexed to Mexico or turned loose entirely." We should really be sorry to lose our neighbor on the south, with its Coronado hotel, tent city, beautiful bay, and splendid climate. We don't presume San Diego people would refuse the citizens of Riverside and San Bernardino opportunity to take their usual summer outing there; but some how we cannot bring ourselves to think of going to Arizona to cool off. Really San Diego seems to be doing pretty well in California, and for one, we wish to file a demurrer to the application for divorce.—Riverside Press. Cures When Doctors Fail. Mrs. Frank Chlasson, Patterson, La., writes June 1901: "I had malaria fever in very bad form, was under treatment by doctors, but as soon as I stopped taking medicine the fever would return. I used a sample bottle of Herbine and found it helped me. I then bought two bottles, which completely cured me. I feel grateful to you for furnishing such a splendid medicine, and can honestly recommend it to those suffering from malaria, as it will surely cure them." Herbine, 50 cent bottles at Watson & Lounsberry's. A complaint has been filed by Harriet B. Winston of San Diego against the Santa Fe railroad for $25,040 for damages alleged to have been sustained while a passenger on that road. Plaintiff bought a ticket at Albuquerque, N.

Bird and Kattler. Ralph Parmanteer, a student of natal history in the Santa Barbara high school, had an opportunity recently of serving a mortal combat in the hills between a road-runner and a rattle-like. The combat was a fierce one that resulted at the end of a half-hour's fighting in the death of the rattler. Warmanteer noticed the bird swoop at something on a hillside. Crawl near the spot he heard the noise of battler and saw the fight. The longed bird circled about its victim, now again darling close to it and sniffing a sharp beak at the snake's head whenever that reptile was colled at before striking. The bird displayed great skill in keeping out of each of the fangs. At last, as the snake became exhausted, the road runner struck it in the face, blinding its eyes. Yet the rattler struck suddenly at its enemy. When the bird ended the snake it walked off. The watcher every movement of the head, while the bird feltted and darted either and thither seeking an opening. Keep the Balance Up. It has been truthfully said that any disturbance of the even balance of health causes serious trouble. Nobody can be too careful to keep this balance. When people begin to lose appetite, or to get tired easily, the least imminence brings on sickness, weakness, debility. The system needs a tonic, leaves it and should not be denied it, and the best tonic of which we have knowledge is Hood's Sarsaparilla. That this medicine has done in keeping healthy people healthy, in keeping the even balance of health, gives it the same distinction as a preventive that it enjoys as a cure. Its early use is illustrated the wisdom of the old saying that a stitch in time saves nine. Like Hood's for appetite, strength and durability. For Sale... Extra good milch cows, Jersey stock.

Spring Medicine There is no other season when good medicine is so much needed as in the Spring. The blood is impure, weak and impoverished—a condition indicated by pimples and other eruptions on the face and body, by deficient vitality, loss of appetite, lack of strength, and want of animation. Hood's Sarsaparilla and Pills Make the blood pure, vigorous and rich, create appetite, give vitality, strength and animation, and cure all eruptions. Have the whole family begin to take them today. "Hood's Sarsaparilla has been used in our family for some time, and always with good results. Last spring I was all run down and got a bottle of it, and as usual received great benefit." Miss Beulah Boycz, Stowe, Vt. Hood's Sarsaparilla promises to cure and keeps the promise. Nasal Catarrh quickly yields to treatment by Elys Cream Balm, which is agreeably aromatic.

The Time When Girls Exchange Confidences. After the prolonged separation of a year when girl school chums meet again, they are apt to put off all conversation of intimate and private matters until bed-time. Then reviving dormitory days of old they open their hearts and tell the secrets accumulated in twelve long months. And some of these confidences are very sad. It is sad when the girl who was a crack at tennis, could pull an oar and swing a golf club has to admit that she has given up all those things because her back ache so incessantly. The pity is that such break-downs are so common among young women. They will continue to be common and to increase in frequency until the girl is taught that the stability of the general health is founded on the local womanly health. A WOMAN'S WEAKNESS may be gaged by her womanly health. "Female Weakness" is not a scientific term, but it is a popular term, expressing the result rather than the condition of womanly disease. Weakness must inevitably follow disease of the delicate womanly organs. Irregularity is often the beginning of more serious ailments. Drains that are at first considered chiefly as disagreeable, will in the end drain away the vigor, and vitality of women. The prompt use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription would save many a woman bear anything to touch me. My feet would keep cold and I could hardly do my work. I would work awhile and then lie down awhile; was completely run-down. Suffered from disagreeable discharge and also severe pains at times. After using five bottles of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, three of his 'Golden Medical Discovery' and one vial of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, and following the advice you gave regarding the 'Lotion Tablets,' I can truly say that I am cured." Sick and ailing women are invited to consult Doctor Pierce, by letter, free. All communications held as sacredly confidential and womanly confidences guarded by strict professional privacy.

The same will not carry with safety more than from four and a half to five heads of water. I would suggest that it be raised to a height of six inches from Sycamore to Center street. THE SPARKS ditch has been completed west to Garden Grove road, with the exception of the arch. Brunworth ditch has been raised and gate constructed. Have raised Chapman ditch at Plapenia. The fill at Horseshoe Bend has been semented as far as we can go until the water is turned out. I would suggest that your board look at old drop at Yorba mill on Anaheim ditch. I am of the opinion that same could be taken out and ditch lowered, thus lowering the head of the Anaheim ditch. If same could be done we would gain considerable water thereby. Your truly, A. L. PORTER, Superintendent. In regard to Mr. Boeckman's water delivery in February, I beg to say that I have been to see Mr. Boeckman, and this claim is that he had only sixteen hours run of 100 inches.

Drains that are at first considered chiefly as disagreeable, will in the end drain away the vigor and vitality of women. The prompt use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription would save many a woman from years of weakness and suffering. It establishes regularity, dries weakening drains, heals inflammation and ulceration and cures female weakness. It makes weak women strong and sick women well. There is no other put-up medicine for woman's peculiar ills, purchasable from dealers which has so remarkable a record of cures as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. When physicians have said no cure was possible; when all other means and medicines have utterly failed to benefit "Favorite Prescription" has been tried and its use has resulted in a perfect and permanent cure. "Your letter just received," writes Miss Rose Kilfether, of 43 West Sharpnack St., Germantown, Philadelphia. Pa."Words fail to express how thankful I am to you for your advice. I must confess that for the length of time I have been using your medicine I have found it to be the most wonderful and best remedy for female troubles that I ever have tried, and from now on I shall use no other. Sorry I did not know of your 'Favorite Prescription' years ago, but will gladly tell my friends who are suffering of your wonderful medicine. I cannot speak too highly of it." Sick and ailing women are invited to consult Doctor Pierce, by letter free. All communications held as sacredly confidential and womanly confidences guarded by strict professional privacy. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N.Y. A great many women have gratefully accepted the opportunity of a free consultation by letter with Dr. Pierce, as a welcome escape from the indelicate questionings, the offensive examinations and obnoxious local treatments, thought necessary by some physicians. The modest woman shrinking from these things often lets her disease grow and eat into her life rather than submit to a treatment which offends her delicacy. A letter to Dr. Pierce avoids all these offensive practices. If you are persuaded that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has cured others, do not allow yourself to be robbed of a cure by accepting some substitute medicine pressed on you by the dealer because it pays him a little more profit.
