She is usually a middle aged widow and flourishes in those dismal localities where every other house is let out in furnished apartments. Many of the people living in these regions are poverty stricken women who have seen better days and dread to enter a pawnshop. The pawner calls once or twice a week upon her clients, and when she departs her satchel bulges with sundry articles which she is commissioned to pledge. She is paid a commission on the sum raised, and hence it is to her interest to haggle with the pawnshop keeper. As a rule, she gets 1 penny for every 2 shillings obtained. The business is a paying one. One pawner boasts a list of 200 customers, people who employ her to pawn articles of wearing apparel on a certain day and redeem it on Saturday. So busy is she that her two daughters assist her. Women of Forty. Balzao, famous as a literary and soCIAL lion, was once attacked in a Paris salon by a pretty little miss of 17, who demanded why it was that he liked women whom she would consider passe. "Why, monsieur, even when they are as old as 40 you seem to enjoy their society!" Balzao looked at her earnestly for a second and then laughed heartily. He bent over to explain matters and remarked in a serious voice, as though weighing every word he said, "Perhaps the secret lies in the simple fact that the woman of 20 must be pleased, while the older woman of 40 tries to please, and the older woman's power consists, not as has been so often said in understanding and making the most of her own charms, but in comprehending and with happy tact calling out and making the most of the good qualities of the man whose favor she seeks."

An apothecary having refused to give up his seat in a theater to an officer's lady, the officer felt himself insulted and sent him a challenge. The apothecary presented himself at the place of meeting at the appointed time. He said, however, that he was not accustomed to the use of firearms, but he would propose another way of settling the dispute. He then drew from his pocket a pill box, took from it two pills, and thus addressed his antagonist: "As a man of honor, you would surely wish to fight me only on equal terms. Here are two pills, one composed of the most deadly poison and the other perfectly harmless. We are on equal ground if we each swallow one. You shall take your choice, and I promise faithfully to take the one you leave." The officer laughed heartily at the strange proposal, and, shaking hands, they parted good friends. Trying the Wrong Man. An unusual verdict was rendered by the jury in a case tried in a California town 25 years ago. The question was as to the ownership of several head of cattle which the defendant was accused of having stolen from the plaintiff. As the case proceeded and different witnesses gave their evidence it became apparent to all listeners that the defendant was an innocent man. When it came time for the jury to retire to consider their verdict, they did so, but returned to the courtroom in a few moments. The foreman looked the judge straight in the eye and said with a drawl and wang which betrayed his New England origin: "Judge, we find the plaintiff guilty." "The court is not trying the plaintiff, but the defendant," said his honor hasily, and, the matter being explained, he foreman was at length induced to express the jury's opinion that the defendant was "not guilty." "Howsomever," added the foreman solemnly, "'pears to me we're considering the wrong man, your honor'"— FRITZ RUHMANN'S Germania Halle.

ANAHEIM ED on of Goods Editorial Note and Comment Downey is again talking incorporation. If the capital is to be removed from Sacramento the people of Oakland seem desirous of making a bid for the same. The Senate has acted wisely in amending the child labor bill so as to admit of the employment of children during school vacations. This applies only to certain vocations. The methods which the allies have seen fit to take in dealing with Bowen would indicate that their purpose in attacking Venezuela was to get something more than a financial settlement. The Missouri house of representatives has passed a resolution to round up the legislative clerks long enough to be counted. Wouldn't be good law for California—it would be too expensive. CARRIE NATION on her recent visit to Los Angeles seemed to be much offended because a certain poster advertising a popular brand of cigars had the picture of a man whose index finger seemed to point at her from any and every point of vantage. Some people have trouble of their own, others have them thrust upon millizers regulated has long been recognized, many ranchers having paid for worthless fertilizers, finding out too late that the manufacturers had taken advantage of the fact that there was no law to say what they should put into their fertilizers, nor what they should claim for it. The bill proviles for these things, making it obligatory upon the manufacturer to accompany every package of fertilizer with a chemical analysis showing the percentages of nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash contained in it, and the materials from which they are derived. SENATOR HARN has introduced a bill to provide against any defeat of the will of voters at the elections by reason of inadvertance in making the "X" mark or voting sign upon the ballot. The bill provides that if a stamp is made in the voting square after the words, "no nomination", or if there are two or more impressions in the voting square, or the cross "X" is made partly within or without the voting square, that fact shall not make the ballot void, unless it appears that it was intentionally done, so that the ballot could be identified as the one voted by such voter. It also provides that any name that is written upon the ballot shall be counted for the office under which it is written if it is written in the blank column. Also, if the voter marks more names than there are persons to be elected to an office, or if for any reason it is impossible to determine the voter's ballot shall be counted for all public lands (according to Mr. Newell, in charge of the Geological Survey, amounting at this time to about $10,000,000), to be used by the Secretary of the Interior in making the necessary examination, surveys and maps, and for the construction and maintenance of reservoirs and... CARRIE NATION on her recent visit to Los Angeles seemed to be much offended because a certain poster advertising a popular brand of cigars had the picture of a man whose index finger seemed to point at her from any and every point of vantage. Some people have trouble of their own, others have them thrust upon them while Carrie seems to seek them. In noting the fact that Grover Cleveland will visit St. Louis in April the Poplar Bluff (Mo.) Journal remarks; "The Democrats can cuss the old boy, but there will be a hundred thousand of them attend the ceremony just to get a sight of him." As Mr. Cleveland is the only Democrat who has been elected to the presidency since 1856, and as sagacious members of that party are in doubt of ever seeing another, he can be viewed somewhat in the nature of a RARA AVIS. JUDGE ALTON B. PARKER of New York, during the recess of the court of appeals a few months hence, is to make a tour of the Southern states, and deliver addresses along Democratic lines in several of them. This goes to show that the judge takes seriously the mention of his name in connection with the presidential nomination in 1904. David Bennett Hill early in '92 made a similar pilgrimage, but it came to naught. Will Judge Parker have better success? Possibly. LORD ROBERTS has accepted the presidency of the new temperance association in England whose pledge not to drink between meals is receiving many thousands of signatures. Dr. Robert Hutchinson, who is one of the promoters of the movement that alcohol taken in small quantities at meals and diluted often assists digestion, when, if taken on an empty stomach, it tends to produce gastric catarrh and indigestion, says from one to one and a half ounces of pure alcohol should suffice daily. This is represented by one glass of spirits, two glasses of porter, and one tumbler of claret, or one pint of ale. SWEET WILLIAM (the Kaiser) has among his other accomplishments the gift of epigram writing. Here are a few of them culled from his round up the legislative clerks long enough to be counted. Wouldn't be good law for California—it would be too expensive. It also provides that any name that is written upon the ballot shall be counted for the office under which it is written if it is written in the blank column. Also, if the voter marks more names than there are persons to be elected to an office, or if for any reason it is impossible to determine the voter's choice for any office, his ballot shall not be counted for such office, but where there are two or more persons to be elected to the office of the same name and the voter stamps a cross in the space at the head of the party ticket and has also placed a cross in the voting square opposite the name of a person who is a candidate for such office on the same ticket without canceling the names of either of the candidates on the party ticket which he has voted for by stamping at the head, such ballot shall be counted as a vote for the person opposite whose name the cross appears, but shall not be counted as a vote for the person on the party ticket whos name occupies the corresponding space as that occupied by the name of the person opposite whose name the cross appears. This bill appears to be intended to prevent the loss of a vote by inadvertence or by misunderstanding on the part of the elector. There seems to be no good reason why the law shall not be interpreted as this bill provides. Better Than Gold "I was troubled for several years with chronic indigestion and nervous debility" writes F. J. Green of Lancaster, J. H. "No remedy helped me until I began using Electric Bitters, which did me more good than all the medicines I ever used. They have also kept my wife in excellent health for years. She says Electric Bitters are just splendid for female troubles; that they are a grand tonic and invigorator for weak, run down women. No other medicine can take its place in our family." Try them.

LETTER FROM WARM CLIMATE "Speaking of pulpit jokes," a churchgoer remarked, "I have to hear of a better one than that on a reverend gentleman of a small congregation in the city. He is a fine preacher, a man along in years, loved and revered by his flock. His pulpit utterances never verge upon levity of any sort. He abhors a resort to humor in church." One Sunday evening he was speaking to his congregation about Mrs. Jones, one of the prominent women of his church, who had gone south for her health. In his previous remarks he had, with feeling, referred to Mrs. Smith, who had recently left this house before one item in the proposed Assembly Bill No. 75 that is not fully provided for by Congress, and under the law all maps, charts, plans, plats, estimates and information gained by its officers are open to the use of... Sweet William (the Kaiser) has among his other accomplishments the gift of epigram writing. Here are a few of them culled from his speeches: A law is the expression of the accumulated experience of centuries. Commerce has become a passion, just as much of a passion as love. Never forget that the amenities of life are the life of the amenities. A crown, whether or not it is a divine right, is at any rate a divine responsibility. A good memory is the second requisite of one who governs; a good conscience is the first. The navy is no longer the wooden walls of a country; rather it is a country's iron shield. When a man ceases to remember his honor, it is time that his fellow-men should cease to remember him. The sword of justice is double-edged, and when one edge grows duller than its fellow the sword has lost its usefulness. The health of the soldier is the health of the army, and the health of the army is the health of the nation. A bill has been introduced in the Legislature to regulate the sale of commercial fertilizers or materials used for manurial purposes, and also for an appropriation of $12,000 to carry on the work of the Farmers' institutes. Both measures are commended by the farmers' clubs and by many ranchers who are not members of such organizations. The importance of having the sale of fer- "Speaking of pulp jones, a cherished goer remarked, 'I have to hear of a better than that on a reverend gentleman of a small congregation in the city. He is a fine preacher, a man along in years, loved and revered by his flock. His pulpit utterances never verge upon levity of any sort. He abhors a resort to humor in church. One Sunday evening he was speaking to his congregation about Mrs. Jones, one of the prominent women of his church, who had gone south for her health. In his previous remarks he had, with feeling, referred to Mrs. Smith, who had recently left this world for a better one. He startled his hearers by saying: 'I have just received a letter from Mrs. Smith. She says it is very warm where she is now.'" "Shocked at the audible titter in the staid congregation, the good man paused, looked blank and then gasped, 'I meant from Mrs. Jones,' and hastily announced the hymn." Cancer Cured Mr. W. W. Prickett, Smithfield, Ill., writes, Sept. 10, 1901: "I had been suffering several years with a cancer on my face, which gave me great annoyance and unbearable itching. I was using Ballard's Snow Liniment for a sore leg, and through an accident I rubbed some of the liniment on the cancer and it gave me almost instant relief. I decided to continue to use the liniment on the cancer. In a short time the cancer came out, my face healed up and there is not the slightest scar left. I have implicit faith in the merits of this preparation, and it cannot be too highly recommended." 25 cents, 50 cents and $1 at Hatzfeld's. A READY ANSWER Not all visitors to the country are as ignorant of the farmer's surroundings as the farmers sometimes suppose. Browning's Magazine gives this instance: "Weal," said Farmer Wilkins to his city boarder, who was up early and looking round, "ben out to hear the haycock crow, I s'pose." And he winked at the hired man. "No," replied the city boarder, "I've been out tying a knot in a cord of wood." Farmer Wilkins scowled at the hired man and wanted to know why he was not getting to work at milking those cows. Many of our common fruits are just as useful, and much nicer, than doctors' prescriptions. The apple, for instance. Not only is the apple an excellent purifier of the blood, but it is a cure for dysentery, and has also the peculiar effect of restoring an intoxicated person to sobriety. A diet of stewed apples, eaten three times a day, has worked wonders in cases of confirmed drunkenness, giving the patient eventually an absolute distaste for alcohol in any form. The pineapple is another fruit most valuable in throat affections. Indeed, it has saved many a life of a diphtheric patient. The juice squeezed from a ripe pineapple is the finest thing in the BILL SEEMS DOOMED Another Pet Measure Bill No. 75—Caldwell Bridge Fighting It Script of a circular from Merige in which he ment reasons why As-75, a measure which is used by friends of the bill, should not be introduced by Mr. Wald make a useless and necessary appropriation that which is the duty power of the Federal the circular is headed Assembly Bill No. 75," her has been presented Mr. Amerige.

To eat a grape a minute for an hour at a time and to repeat this performance three or four times a day, eating very little else meantime but dry bread, may seem a monotonous way of spending the time. This treatment works wonders for thin, nervous, anemic people, whose digestions have got out of order from worry or overwork. It is no mere quack prescription, but a form of cure recognized and advised by many well known physicians. Grapes are, perhaps, the most digestible of any fruit in existence. A cordial made from blackberries is greatly recommended as a cure for colic, and many a farmer's wife makes blackberry cordial regularly. Nowadays doctors forbid gouty patients to eat any kind of sweet foods, but recommend them to eat at least a dozen walnuts a day. There is no doubt that walnuts are most useful to gouty subjects, or in cases of chronic rheumatism. Swelling goes down and pain decreases. Man could spare almost any fruit better than the lemon. For use in fever nothing can take the place of its acid juice. It also has quinine-like properties in it that brings down the temperature of a fever-stricken patient. For stopping a cold the lemon is also unequalled. The juice of one lemon squeezed in a tumbler of hot water and taken on getting into bed usually throws the sufferer into a profuse perspiration and he awakes almost well the following morning. The juice of a lemon mixed with honey in a breakfast cupful of hot water is an invaluable specific for sore throat and that hacking cough which is so troublesome to many in damp weather. Pure lemon juice is a capital remedy for biliousness and bilious headaches. REGULAR SESSION CITY TRUSTEES Marshal Steadman Makes Report—Cash in Treasury $5,854.82—New Treasurer Appointed—Other Business. The board of city trustees met in regular session. Present: Messrs. Schneider, Rust, Weisel and Berdrow. Absent: Mr. Fletcher. The marshal reported the following collections: For water, $210.60; for license, $485; for light, $401.00; for delinquents, $30.00; total, $1127.35. The clerk's financial report from January 13 to February 9, 1903, showed the following balances: In the general fund, $3862.18; in the public library fund, $413.14; in improvement fund No. 1, $952.50; in improvement fund No. 2, $168.00; in improvement fund No. 3, $459.00; balance in treasury, $5,854.82. The report of the treasurer was presented, and corresponded with that of the clerk. The finance committee reported favorably on bills against the city for $1178.13. The public improvement committee reported that the sidewalk on Center street had been graded from Ohio street to Santa Fe depot. Also, that the city could make arrangements with the county to get all necessary gravel from their pit. Also, in the matter of shade trees along the streets, Mr. Weisel of the committee reported that he had gone to Santa Ana and made inquiries among the officials of that burg as to what they consider the proper thing. It seemed to be the opinion of those consulted with that the black acacia was the best tree for the purpose. Time was granted for further investigation. In the absence of Mr. Fletcher, the matter of a new tank at the power How to Cure Alfalfa The leaves of alfalfa contain almost twelve times as much protein as the stem, a ton of alfalfa containing 2,800 pounds of bran. Every effort, then, should be made to cure the alfalfa in such a way to save all the leaves possible. The method of curing will vary with the conditions of the crop, ground and weather. When alfalfa has made a slow growth, and at the time of cutting the ground and the weather are dry, there is no difficulty in curing. Often, under these conditions it is safe to rake within a few hours of sowing and stack a few hours after the alfalfa has been put in the windrows. When alfalfa has made a rapid growth and is rank succulent, and the weather and ground are damp, the problem of curing is a difficult one. It is easy to dry the leaves, but the stems will contain much moisture after the leaves are too dry. Alfalfa hay should become so dry before stacking that when a handful of stems are twisted together no water can be squeezed out. The most practical way to accomplish this, and at the same time save the leaves, is the plan to adopt, and this will vary with different seasons and places. There is usually no difficulty in curing any but the first crop. When the conditions for curing the first crop are unfavorable we have usually found the most practicable methods to be to cut the alfalfa early in the morning, after the dew is off, allow it to barely wilt in the swath, then rake, and before night put in narrow, tall cocks. After the dew is off text morning and the surface of the ground has become dry, we open these corks carefully so as not to shatter off the leaves. If the weather is favorable the hay may be stacked in the afternoon if not, we recock carefully, and repeat treatment until the hay is properly cured. Some alfalfa growers, in stacking the first cutting of alfalfa, put alfalfa and dry straw or prairie hay in alternating layers—a satisfactory way if the dry material is available. Others use ten to fifteen pounds of salt or air-slaked lime to each ton of hay, sprinkling the salt or lime so as to cover as much of each load as possible. Experiments made at this station indicate that considerably less gains are made by cattle when salt is mixed with the feed. A trial of lime on alfalfa, made at this station, showed little effect.—Kansas Experiment Station. pruning, will raise the firty cents over last year, much higher than for last. apply this proposed $107, more pressing necessities of and not place it in the hands on to expend in the line now carried on and striely by the federal govhere is not one item in the assembly Bill No. 75 that is divided for by Congress, and new all maps, charts, plans, tates and information gained are open to the use of of this state.

We heard a man say the other morning that the abbreviation for February—Feb.—means freeze every body, and that man looked frozen in his ulster. It was apparent that he needed the kind of warmth that stays, the warmth that reaches from head to foot, all over the body. We could have told him from personal knowledge that Hood's Sarsaparilla gives permanent warmth, it invigorates the blood and speeds it along through artery and vein, and really fits men and women, boys and girls, to enjoy cold weather and resist the attacks of disease. It gives the right kind of warmth, stimulates and strengthens at the same time, and all its benefits are lasting. These may be a suggestion in this for you.

Evans, Clearwater, Kan., writes: "My husband lay sick for three months; the doctors stated he had quick consumption. We procured a bottle of Ballard's Horehound Syrup and it cured him. That was six years ago, and since that we always keep a bottle in the house. We cannot do without it. For coughs and colds it has no equal." 25 cent, 50 cent and $1 bottles at J. P. Hatzfeld's. Don't forget the old man with the fish on his back. For nearly thirty years he has been traveling around the world, and is still traveling, bringing health and comfort wherever he goes. To the consumptive he brings the strength and flesh he so much needs. To all weak and sickly children he gives rich and strengthening food. To thin and pale persons he gives new firm flesh and rich red blood. Children who first saw the old man with the fish are now grown up and have children of their own. He stands for Scott's Emulsion of pure cod liver oil—a delightful food and a natural tonic for children, for old folks and for all who need flesh and strength.
