FACTS CONCERNING ANAHEIM Extracts from the Chamber of Commerce Pamphlet Descriptive of the Boss Place on Earth Midway between the mountains and the ocean, in the center of a rich and level plain, the little city of Anaheim is located. Mountains, snow-capped in winter, to the north, mountains to the east, with the nearer green hills and the adjacent orchards, vineyards and farming lands, extending far in all directions, make a landscape that not only pleases the eye but conveys to the mind a suggestion of thrift and plenty. Situated in the northern portion of Orange county, twenty-seven miles south of the city of Los Angeles, it has easy communication with, and makes ready market in the Southern California metropolis. It is connected with the city just named by means of two railroads, the Santa Fe and the Southern Pacific, and the traveler between the two places has a choice of six trains daily, which, with commutation rates in case of frequent travel, makes easy access to a metropolis. In addition to these facilities for traffic, it is probable that electric cars will soon be running, with the usual frequency, between Anaheim and Los Angeles. The franchise for the projected electric road has already been secured, and the railway will without doubt be in operation within the next twelve months. The location of the prosperous town of Anaheim is ideal, lying as it does in the center of so fertile a country, that the capacity for diversified crops is almost unlimited. The history of Anaheim is unique and has been the theme of many pens. Years ago—something less than half a century—fifty men, all native Germans, at that time residing in San Francisco, formed a corporation known as the Los Angeles Vineyard society. They were not farmers or fruit-growers. They pursued their various avocations in the northern city, chiefly those of the mechanic and tradesman. But they had dreams of a different and more congenial approach to pro- ments know how to conduct themselves, without thunder and lightning they attend strictly to business. They give ample warning, and when they subside they do so with no threatening, no grumbling; and the merchant and the fruit grower smile with the sun, for they know what irrigation means to the sun-kissed land. Even though the temperature may rise on a few particular days far above the average, the oppressive, sultry humidity of the eastern "hot spell" is entirely absent, and it must be remembered that the nights are always cool. HEALTH-GIVING PROPERTIES. The sanitary conditions of the city of Anaheim are excellent, as shown by the low death rate. Epidemics are comparatively unknown and cases of diphtheria and scarlet fever, quite uncommon, are always of a very mild type. The balmy air, devoid as it is of extremes, makes it an ideal climate for all suffering from catarrhal diseases of the respiratory organs. The citizens of this town have reason to feel proud of its supply of good water; it is clear as crystal and as pure as can be obtained. Space is not allowed here for a full discussion of the many advantages to be derived, physically, from a residence in this particular salutary spot. Yet what can be better for the invalid than a moderate, equable climate, plenty of sunshine, the best water and, seemingly, all the other essential conditions for the convalescent; only such a region as this can supply them. IRRIGATION. Occupying a part of a fertile, alluvial plain, the delta of the Santa Ana river, the soil is a rich, sandy loam, easy to work, with a gradual slope toward the ocean, which facilitates irrigation. The average annual rainfall is twelve inches, so that the dry plains of this locality produce burr clover, alfilaria, wild oats and other native grasses, thus furnishing a moderate amount of pasture. In a favorable season a full crop of grain may be produced without irrigation, as, indeed, is invariably the case in our big outlying grain ranches. With thorough and regular irrigation the same lands produce abundant crop, which commands the highest price in the eastern market, been moved from the trees, when the English walnut crop engages the attention of the horticulturist. Anaheim has walnut trees growing in the full spadder of their luxuriance that are more than forty years old, and the young chards in full bearing are extensive. Orange county produces one-third all the English walnuts grown in entire state. Many of the more productive trees yield nuts annually to value of $80. This section is a suitable home for the walnut. It thrives naturally this environment. In the coming year it is destined to become the money-making staple of the soil. Our new possessions in the West dies, while in a degree they may compete with California in the production of citrus fruits, cannot become rival in the production of walnuts. The trees require particular condition of soil and climate, which are found in all their perfection. The superiority of climatic conditions not only renders the valley mistrethreatened by citrus and walnut yield, but in production of all kinds of fruits vegetables Orange county takes precedence over neighboring sections. Tot Causes Night Alarm "One night my brother's baby taken with croup," writes Mrs. Snider of Crittenden, Ky.

Years ago—something less than half a century—fifty men, all native Germans, at that time residing in San Francisco, formed a corporation known as the Los Angeles Vineyard society. They were not farmers or fruit-growers. They pursued their various avocations in the northern city, chiefly those of the mechanic and tradesman. But they had dreams of a different and more congenial approach to prosperity. They purchased 1165 acres in Southern California, the site of the present town of Anaheim. The tract was subdivided into fifty twenty-acre lots and fifty house lots. A manager was selected, and under his supervision eight acres of each twenty were planted with vines, which were cared for by him during a period of three years. In the meantime the members of the "Vineyard Society" continued to live in San Francisco, pursuing their various callings. At the end of the three years the property was divided by lot and each member received a deed to twenty acres and a house lot. About the same time the majority of the land-owners arrived in Anaheim and took possession of their several estates. They began making improvements which soon transformed Anaheim into a community whose fame became world-wide, both as a successful experiment in colonization and as a wine producing center. Time has wrought the usual changes. Few of the original colonists survive, and from a distinctly German settlement it has become as cosmopolitan as any city in the State. The vineyards, which for more than twenty years were the special pride and glory of the pioneer, have given place in a great measure to walnut and orange groves. But there remains enough of the original settlement to give the stranger an idea of the appearance of the "German Colony," as it was called, at a time when it was the only settlement worthy of the name between Los Angeles on the north and San Diego on the south. CLIMATIC CONDITIONS. As has been stated, Anaheim is most favorably situated midway between the mountains and the sea. In round numbers, it may be described as lying twelve miles from the ocean and four and one-half miles from the nearer foothills, being about 150 feet above sea level. Just far enough from the sea to avoid the cold winds of winter, it is yet near enough to enjoy the cool breezes of summer. Far enough from the mountains to escape any excessive heat of summer, it is yet near enough to benefit by the clear mountain air as it descends toward the sea. As a natural consequence, the climate is at all times devoid of extremes. The winters are warm and the summers cool when compared with the same seasons elsewhere. The nights are at all times cool, yet even in winter frosts are of rare occurrence. Occupying a part of a fertile, alluvial plain, the delta of the Santa Ana river, the soil is a rich, sandy loam, easy to work, with a gradual slope toward the ocean, which facilitates irrigation. The average annual rainfall is twelve inches, so that the dry plains of this locality produce burr clover, alfilaria, wild oats and other native grasses, thus furnishing a moderate amount of pasture. In a favorable season a full crop of grain may be produced without irrigation, as, indeed, is invariably the case in our big outlying grain ranches. With thorough and regular irrigation the same lands produce abundant crops of almost any variety. The horticulturists and farmers are organized into the Anaheim Union Water company, a corporation of nearly six hundred stockholders, with a capital stock of one million two hundred thousand dollars, represented by twelve thousand shares, of which eight thousand have been issued, the other four thousand remaining in the treasury. Thus we see that the people themselves own the water, the land being "water-stocked," and each farmer holding a proportion of stock. The expense of irrigation is confined to the extending and improvement of the ditches, keeping in repair the headgate, flumes, drops and small gates, and the distribution of the water, including salaries of necessary officials. In addition, a crew of men is employed almost constantly in cementing the lateral ditches, in order to facilitate the delivery of water and reduce the waste to the minimum. The source of water is the Santa Ana river, which is fed by springs and melting snows of the adjoining mountains and is brought down from the headgate through a large ditch, fifteen miles in length, known as the Cajon canal. During several months of the year this canal is inadequate to bring down the large amount of water in the river which is wasted by flowing on down to the ocean. Even if the water could all be brought down, there is as yet no place prepared to store it for summer use. It is intended, however, that during the next two years this difficulty shall be removed by the enlarging and cementing of the greater portion of the Cajon canal, and by the construction of one of the two large storage reservoirs, the sites for which have already been purchased by the Anaheim Union Water company at a cost of $21,000. While the rapid development of the country creates each year a demand for more water, this call has been met by the continued improvements in the irrigation system, supplemented by a constantly increasing number of private pumping plants, drawing their supply from never-failing wells on individual ranches. The remnant of a low range of foothills can be seen skirting the present coast a few miles southwest of Anaheim. This range, continuing as a subformation, checks the flow oceanward of underground currents and creates an artesian belt of flowing wells along the landward side of the ridge. On very rich soil a few miles inland. Some of the Democratic news have sought to belittle the crowded enthusiasm which have attended Pardee's progress through her but the Marysville Democrat is not of these. Its headlines tell them of the Marysville meeting: "A Reception—That is What Dr. Pardee Met While in Marysville at the time of Ever Hospitable People." An attack was lately made on Collier of Cherokee, Iowa, that proved fatal. It came through hisneys. His back got so lame he not stoop without great pain; nor a chair except propped by cushion No remedy helped him until he Electric Bitters, which effected wonderful change that he writ feels like a new man. This marvel medicine cures backache and trouble, purifies the blood and up your health. Only 50c at Hata In his recent speeches in addition to Candidate Lane, ex-Congress Geary has been saying that Dr. Pardee is probably a good man, but he never been tried in a position of responsibility. Mr. Geary has reversed, for it is Candidate Lane not Candidate Pardee who is used in the responsibilities of executive office. While Dr. Pardee made an independent forceful mayor, Mr. Pardee has played no part except that on advisor in an office, calling for eclective labor or responsibility; he would act under difficult circumstances no man can say because no knows. The policy of the Democratic seems to be to kick, and kick, and it kicked at the proposition to esquire national banks. It kicked at its sumption of specie payments. It at every measure suggested by publicans. Its futile efforts to unthe affairs of the country have likened to the schemes evolved payment of the national debt man confined in the debtor's prince. Time seems most untimely when he brings a woman to turn of life. Life is or should be at its ripest and best for her, and she approaches this change with a dread of its effect born knowledge of the sufferings of women at this season. There is not the slightest can fear or anxiety at this period foothills, being about 150 feet above sea level. Just far enough from the sea to avoid the cold winds of winter, it is yet near enough to enjoy the cool breezes of summer. Far enough from the mountains to escape any excessive heat of summer, it is yet near enough to benefit by the clear mountain air as it descends toward the sea. As a natural consequence, the climate is at all times devoid of extremes. The winters are warm and the summers cool when compared with the same seasons elsewhere. The nights are at all times cool, yet even in winter frosts are of rare occurrence. The seasons are frequently designated as a dry and a wet season; yet the latter term does not convey an at all definite idea of the winter season. It need not be supposed that it indicates a steady downpour of rain or even persistent clouds and rain. There may possibly be fewer rainy days in one year in Southern California than in a single month of inclement weather in an eastern state. To be exact, there are, on an average, about three hundred days in the year during which the sun shines and a much greater number than that are free from rain. Seldom is there even a alight shower during the summer months, rarely any rainfall from May to October. The first showers may possibly occur in October; the heavier rains may appear in December, or the greatest rainfall may be deferred until January or even as late as March. The earlier rains are necessary to start the grain, the later ones to mature it. You will never hear the California farmer growling in regard to rainy weather. He knows there will be no more than the needed supply of water. During the season, there are heavy showers, seldom a steady downpour. The rain has a convenient way of descending by night, leaving the days very often clear and beautiful, or with intermittent showers. Yet when it rains, it rains; the ele- Stricken with Paralysis "Henderson Grimett of this place was stricken with partial paralysis and completely lost the use of one arm and side.

Walnuts require particular conditions and climate, which are here in all their perfection. Superiority of climatic conditions only renders the valley mistress of citrus and walnut yield, but in the section of all kinds of fruits and tables Orange county takes easy evidence over neighboring sections.

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. IN NEW YORK'S EARLY DAYS. The Bowery Was the Resort of Wealth, Beauty and Fashion. "A pleasant picture occurs to me of a summer progress of the family of Governor Stuyvesant to and from the meeting house, for divine worship in the fort near the Battery, New York," writes Mrs. Burton Harrison in The Ladies' Home Journal, describing "When Fashion Graced the Bowery." "In a brave coach, drawn by shining horses, is ensconced the governor himself, whose long, laced coat half hides his wooden leg banded with silver. He wears a carefully curled parka and holds his hat upon his knee, in order to court the cool sea breeze that fans his rugged visage. His lady, sitting in state beside him, is, in their staid and phlegmatic community, accounted a brilliant personage; her gown came out from her native Paris, and her silken hood is worn over frizzled and powdered hair; her embroidered hose and high heeled shoes, her rings, bracelets and lookets, with the gorgeously bound book of devotion supended by a golden chain to her waistband, may be depended upon as models of the very latest modes. Mrs. Bayard, the widowed sister of the governor, occupies a seat in the coach facing them. "After service in the bare colonial church—where the dominie's sermon, however eloquent, was always brought to an end by three raps from the clerk's stick at the moment when the sands of the hourglass had announced that the preacher's limit of time had been reached—the Stuyvesant party passes out between rows of respectful gazers." What She Wanted. "Papa," said the millionaire's beautiful daughter, as she put her arms around him affectionately. "Papa, won't you buy me—won't you buy me?"—She hesitated, and he hastily interrupted: "Oh, you've got all the bowwows you need. This dog show is driving every one crazy." "But I don't want a bowwow," she said petulantly. "You've always been so good to me, you know. You bought me a pony cart, and a lot of Paris dresses, and a summer cottage and a sailboat, and a footman, and a coachman and an opera box for the season, and—and— Oh, I know you've been real good!" "I should say I had!" he exclaimed. "I've bought you everything that you wanted that could be had for money." "Oh, no! Not everything, papa," she ent in hastily.

Orange county thus contains one-fifth the area of Los Angeles; yet its irrigated lands approach in area to one-half those of its neighbor to the north.

San Bernardino is 25 times its size, yet its irrigated acres exceed those of this jumbo county by nearly 4000, approximately ten per cent. San Diego is eleven times its size, yet it irrigates 25,000 acres more than the county on the south—300 per cent is the former's irrigated area as compared with that of the latter—almost the irrigated area of San Diego and Riverside combined.

Orange county possesses the finest system of irrigation, the most secure water rights, that exist in Southern California. That is what we have said many a time and oft. These figures prove it.

Will the circulation of false statements about a candidate secure the election of his opponent? If it will not there is no argument against Pardee, and Lane's chance is just no chance at all. The excitement incident to traveling and the change of food and water often brings on diarrhoea, and for this reason no one should leave home without a bottle of Chamberlain's Cholic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. For sale by all druggists. Candidate Lane found it necessary when he was down in the San Joaquin valley to deny that he is running on the issue of the poor against the rich. His only daily newspaper supporter in San Francisco said that was the issue, and so he said in his Fresno speech: "I am the candidate of no one class. I have no fight against the man who has a million dollars." We don't care what platform Mr. Lane stands on so long as he does not shift it as he goes from one town to another. We insist that he shall have but one platform and use it all the time. A Typical South African Store O. R. Larson of Bay Villa, Sundays River, Cape Colony, conducts a store typical of South Africa, at which can be purchased anything from the proverbial "needle to an anchor."

All testify to their value in a household where a doctor's advice is almost out of the question. Within one mile of my store the population is perhaps sixty. Of these, within the past twelve months, no less than fourteen have been absolutely cured by Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. This must surely be a record." For sale by all druggists.

It is conceded that Mr. Lane, the Democratic candidate for Governor is a very nice kind of man, who has been a good legal advisor to the city and county of San Francisco. He has all of the private and some of the public virtues, but he has never been tried in an executive office, and his capacity in that direction is unknown because it has never been tested. The governorship is the chief executive office of the commonwealth, and it appears most proper that it should be filled by some one who has already been tried out in some other executive office—say, Geo. C. Pardee, who made a forceful mayor and proved that he had the right sort of backbone. Beautiful Complexions Are spoiled by using any kind of preparation that fills the pores of the skin.

The Perilous Period Which Follows an Attack of this Mysterious Malady. Grip is bad enough with its aching bones, inflamed eyes, painful back, and fever. But its after effects are perhaps even more to be dreaded than the misery attendant on an attack of the disease itself. The person who comes safely through an attack of grip, man, woman, or child, is left in a condition of peculiar debility and prostration from which it is difficult to rally. A slight cold or cough may find speedy termination in lung disease. Ordinary exposure results in pneumonia. The disease seems to deplete the vitality, undermine the strength, and affect the balance of the mind. It is one of the sad experiences of the grip, that the convalescent supposed to be rallying well, has been found in a condition of complete collapse. As a result of the grip the lungs, and other organs of respiration seem peculiarly liable to be affected and consumption may easily be the after consequence of the malady. It needs no argument therefore to urge the building up of the system weakened by grip to enable it to resist and throw off these sequent diseases which so frequently prove fatal. In actual test Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has proved itself peculiarly valuable not only in the quick cure Sage's Catarrh Remedy. I do not regret that I spent the money paid for the medicines. I have gained twenty-four pounds. Indeed Dr. Pierce's medicines have done wonders for me. It is no use for me to try to tell my feelings. It would take time and space, but I was a skeleton and so poor and so down-hearted I could not look at one of my little ones without shedding tears, thinking that they would soon be left without a mother." HOW STRENGTH IS RESTORED. What makes me strong? Ask yourself that question and you will find that the answer will be, I am made strong by food. How does food make us strong? By passing through the processes of digestion and being converted into nutrition, which, in the form of blood, nourishes the body. So that while blood is the life of the body, food is the life of the blood. Every red vein and artery of the body leads like a scarlet clue back to the stomach. If the body is weak, therefore, we must look to the stomach first for the cause of weakness, and then to the blood. The same result of physical weakness will follow the opening of an artery, or starvation. You may bleed to death or starve to death. This is so well understood in medical practice that the first consideration of the physician in investigating disease is the condition of the stomach. If the stomach is weak the body can't be strong. If the stomach is weak, that weakness will surely find an echo in some other organ dependent on the stomach for its nutrition—such as heart, liver, lungs, kidneys, etc. If you starve a mother, you starve the child at her breast. If you starve the stomach, you starve the organs it feeds. But starvation of the body can be accomplished even where food is plentifully supplied, because if the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition are diseased, then the food will not be converted into nutrition or only partly so, and the body inadequately nourished will begin to grow weak. The first attempt, then, in dealing with a weak body is to nourish it into strength. The general method of this attempt is to try and bring the food down to the level of the weak stomach. This is done by the use of prepared foods, cod liver oil, and its emulsions. But this doesn't cure the disease of the stomach or put the organs of nutrition into a condition to build up the body.
