ON THE WAY TO AYLWIN
By M. MACLEAN HELLIWELL
Copyright, 1803, by T. C. McClure
The train stopped with a jolt, and the passengers thronged out, filling the station with bustle and confusion.
Chatterton, who was on his way to Halifax, was looking idly out of the smoker window, when suddenly there passed across his range of vision a certain well cut profile which he knew could belong to only one woman in the world. Without an instant's hesitation he picked up his hat and left the car, clearing the steps just as the train started heavily forward.
The small station was crowded with people, and Chatterton looked some time for the lady of the profile before he espied her sitting quietly in one corner of the dingy waiting room.
She had thrown open her coat and was leaning back against the wall with closed eyes, evidently prepared to wait some time. Chatterton seated himself in the opposite corner of the room and, drawing out a paper, pretended to read the while he watched her furtively.
People passed and repassed between them. The noise and confusion ebbed and flowed as train after train came in and departed.
Then all at once a lull came. Silence reigned on the platform, and Chatterton suddenly realized that he and the lady were alone in the waiting room. He rose and went out abruptly, and as he passed through the door he stopped for a moment before a time table that hung beside it, one name having caught his eye.
"Aylwin," he muttered. "Of course going home for the dear old people's anniversary dinner. How could I have forgotten it? I don't believe she ever traveled alone before, and it's a whole hour to wait in this hole. Don't I know the long, interminable dragging on of the minutes, don't I know—ah, but it did not seem long last year when we waited here together!"
He passed out on to the deserted platform and, lighting a cigar, smoked furiously while he paced up and down, revolving many things in his mind.
At last, throwing back his head with a sudden resolution, he tossed aside his cigar and re-entered the waiting room.
As the door closed behind him the girl in the corner opened her eyes and you, believe me. They must not be allowed to suspect anything, but when we are alone we shall be as strangers. I shall not even talk to you if you do not wish it. There is plenty of time for you to decide. I am asking nothing for myself—I know that that is fruitless—but I am pleading for the little mother and the pater."
He turned as he finished speaking and left her alone.
It seemed scarcely five minutes before she heard his voice again. "The Aylwin train is coming," he said. "Shall I get a ticket?"
"Yes," she answered simply.
The cars were crowded, but he found a seat, and putting her in it with the old air of proprietorship that had always been so sweet to her, he seated himself beside her silence.
The train rattled on, and as they sat so near together, yet so very far apart, the thoughts of each turned to the last time they had traveled that road together, on their first visit home after their honeymoon.
How happy they had been then! How happy they might have been now if only that little rift within the lute—Through the mind of each the same questions rang—and there been just and sufficient cause? A little patience, a little forbearance, a little sacrificing of pride at the beginning—
Chatterton looked down at the slight figure beside him. They would not be able to deceive the little mother after all. Happy? With the old sparkle all gone from her eyes and those pathetic little lines about her mouth! And he had sworn to love her, to cherish her and protect her through good and ill till death should part them. Instinctively his hand closed over hers as it lay listlessly on the seat beside him.
At the touch of his fingers she turned, and something shone in her eyes as she drew closer to him.
"Dear," she said softly. "I'm so lonely, so tired and so sorry. Will you?" His firm clasp of the hand tightened as the conductor threw open the door and shouted, "Aylwin next station!"
"Hush," he whispered. "It was all my fault, little girl. I have been a brute, but all the rest of my life I shall make atonement, for we'll start all over again, and—we won't have to act a lie to the little mother, will we, Madda?"
And, though she answered nothing in words, each understood and was happy.

There are few more wrong things in the world than the lem artchoke. In the first place came from Jerusalem at the second it is not really any but a sunflower with its tufted by cultivation.
Cultivation has done well fruit and vegetables.
For instance, through peaches, apecots and nectars been developed from the which family all three fruits.
There is little apparent connection between the wild crab of the sea and a Newpawn pipkin, but members of the same genus it is from this same wild that the whole of the 700 varieties of apples have been.
Technically speaking, too is an apple, and so are the mountain ash, which lacks an ash at all.
Is a turnip a cabbage? Yes; at least of it is. This vegetable known as kohlrabi although classed by scientists the Brassica or cabbage has huge roots just like a turnip.
The cucumber is really not a vegetable. The same applies to the tomato, which fruit also.
The gooseberry is a currant—the least like it in either apple flavor, yet both belong to family of Ribes.
The onion is a charming herb various species bearing low, blue and rose colored many produced in beautiful clusters. Originally the one flowering plant, but the curcumin of its varieties has now world famous vegetable.

He passed out on to the deserted platform and, lighting a cigar, smoked furiously while he paced up and down, revolving many things in his mind.
At last, throwing back his head with a sudden resolution, he tossed aside his cigar and re-entered the waiting room.
As the door closed behind him the girl in the corner opened her eyes, and a sudden wave of color touched her cheeks. Her cool, gray eyes regarded his steadily for a moment, then she turned her face slowly from him. But the man, lifting his hat, advanced quickly.
"Margaret," he cried as he stood before her. "I want to talk to you." Her hailing gray eyes met his with no trace of embarrassment.
"I know of nothing you can have to say to me. You were very explicit. Nothing of importance was omitted, but if something else has occurred to you you have my lawyer's address and can communicate with him."
He made no answer for a moment, then he said abruptly:
"You are going home for the anniversary dinner tomorrow. I can just see the table blazing with lights and flowers, the dear old pater beaming with pride and the little mother all soft amiles and tender happiness. Tomorrow will be the first time there has ever been an empty place at the anniversary dinner. I am afraid the little mother will not like that. She has always had perfect faith in her sons-in-law."
"It is easy to deceive old people," she interrupted. "particularly such dear, guileless, trustful old people as they. Will you kindly leave me? Under existing circumstances no gentleman should have to be reminded that he has renounced his right to inflict his company upon his—the woman"
"His wife," he finished gently. "Why hesitate? Is the word so hateful to you? A separation is not a divorce, you know. I don't want to force myself upon you. Margaret. But I cannot get the little mother out of my mind Do they know at home of our trouble?"
The girl was silent for a moment, then she faced him suddenly, her eyes blazing.
"No," she cried; "they don't. You are not the only one who loves them! You have been the cause of my doing much that I regret, and now you are making me do the one thing I have always loathed with all my soul. You have forced me to lie to them for the first time in my life! I have told them nothing yet of the truth. In my letters I have always added your love and such messages as you used to send. They expect you tonight. I shall tell them that just as we were starting an urgent telegram came from the Hall-fax branch demanding your immediate presence. Oh, I shall get through! I have had my schooling." The last words were rather faint, but she threw back her head and added almost fiercely. "And it will not be acting to show them how happy I am!"
He did not tell her that her face, her firm clasp of the hand tightened as the conductor threw open the door and shouted, "Aywin next station!"
"Hush," he whispered. "It was all my fault, little girl. I have been a brute, but all the rest of my life I shall make atonement, for we'll start all over again, and—we won't have to act a lie to the little mother, will we, Madda?"
And, though she answered nothing in words, each understood and was happy.
No Windfalls For Him.
"When I read of folks finding bank notes stuffed in old sofa pillows and pincushions," said a west side dealer in secondhand household furniture to a New York Times man. "It just makes me ready to cry. Half the stories printed about such finds I don't believe. I've been in this business thirty-one years right here in little old New York. I've made it a point of gathering in all sorts of odds and ends from old cranks that I thought would be likely to hide money. I've never left anything like a pillow or a thing where money could be hidden in any lot I bought outright, although I've had to brave many a pitiful appeal for father's tobacco box and mother's sewing basket. I never let any piece of furniture go out of here again until I have been through it myself. Wife and I have pulled hair stuffing out of things and put it back again when we could have saved ourselves trouble and money by letting the stuff go out for sale without it. Find anything? Not a cent. Once I found an old book hidden in a mattress that was bought from a woman who died. I took it to a bookseller, who said it was not worth my car fare. No, sir; the only way to get money in this business, like any other, is to work for it and not expect to find it."

The lantern of the east is as old as civilization. Its primary object is to protect the frame from sudden drafts beyond this is the concentration of light for the convenience of a reader and last and least, the regard for beauty. The oldest form is a perforated cylinder or rectangular box. Of this type there are numberless varieties, old and new. The ancient ones which have been preserved are of iron, copper and brass, nearly all simple in construction and finish, but a few richly decorated. Decasionally one runs across lanterns made of silver or ivory. These come from palaces or temples and in most instances are richly carved. Not frequently the perforation are fitted with pieces of colored glass, rock crystal, amethyst and garnet.
In China and Japan the traveler's or street lantern is a feature. This is a sphere or ellipsoid ranging from six inches to two and even three feet in diameter, made of oiled paper, cloth or another of the caribou species or horticultural noxious.
The horse chestnut is Escauca other kind Castanea—Stray.

Exceptions are the monkey el, giraffe and lama, who swim without assistance. Llamas have to be helped by giraffes and monkeys they enter it. Now and then the latter species manage terriers when they are driemites, just as human dogs can keep themselves terrace through sheer fright.
A funny though able swifter he submerges his exception of head and latter sticks away up into his hind legs make "soap churns the water mildly to But with all his awkward swift swimmer and is only the squirrel among the land.
The squirrel swims with tail sunk away down in the his head held high. He waves like a duck, and a mall boat has all he can do to lift off of the swimming squirrel.
One thing that none of these animals does is to dive. No hard pressed a swimming squirrel or other purely terrestrial may be it will remain terrestrial. But the muskrat, bear and otter dive immediately.

Deputy Sheriff James Crawford of La Habra was arrested on Fullerton some nights ago on a warrant sworn out by J. C. Matland, charging him with disturbing the peace and using vulgar and indecent language before women and children. Crawford was taken before Justice Ford, who allowed him to go on his own recognition unTuesday evening, when he appeared and pleaded guilty. Judge Ford read him a sermon on the way he was going, and took occasion to remind him that his conduct amounted to a breach of trust, when he, as an officer of the law, allowed himself to become intoxicated, and warned him that if he appeared before him again he would get a stiff sentence. He then let him off with a fine of ten dollars, which he paid. On the advice of friends Crawford resigned his official position as deputy sheriff and promised to be good.

In China and Japan the traveler's or street lantern is a feature. This is a sphere or ellipsoid ranging from six inches to two and even three feet in diameter, made of oiled paper, cloth or silk. In Cathay this lantern is used to show the rank of its owner by the coloring or inscriptions on its exterior.
The humble citizen uses a small affair in white or red, the official of low rank a sphere a foot in diameter hanging in front of his sedan chair, while the high mandarin employs a huge lantern, replendent with his titles in colors, carried by an ablebodied cooly who walks a yard in advance.
It is in house lanterns that the greatest variety is found. Of these the general type is a four, five, six, seven, eight or ten sided box, whose length is usually twice its width. Each side is a pane of glass, plain, ground, frosted or decorated. From the angles hang pendantts of many sorts. The framework is usually of teak, but ebony, rosewood, mahogany and other woods are employed. Often the sides of the lanterns are alternately wood and glass, the latter being covered with ground designs and the former richly carved in relief or inset with ivory, mother-of-pearl or silver.
Upon the pendantts the artificers put their hardest work. Some are made of colored beads, strung and massed with fantastic shapes and knots. Others are strings of little bells, which ring with every passing breeze. Lines of glittering tinted glass balls betray the origin of a favorite mode of decorating Christmas trees. Qualit objects in gaudy enamel or colored porcelain, connected by threads, chains or wires, constitute a fourth and very pleasing group. Floral festoons made of artificial flowers are popular, especially with the fair sex—New York Post.

Cultivation Has Done Wonders For Fruit and Vegetables.
There are few more wrongly named things in the world than the Jerusalem artichoke. In the first place it never came from Jerusalem at all. And in the second it is not really an artichoke, but a sunflower with its tubers developed by cultivation.
Cultivation has done wonders for fruit and vegetables.
For instance, through its means reaches, apicots and nectarines have been developed from the almond, to which family all three fruits belong.
There is little apparent connection between the wild crab of the hedgerows and a Newtown pipkin, but both are members of the same genus. Indeed, it is from this same wild crabapple that the whole of the 700 odd existing varieties of apples have been raised.
Technically speaking, too, the pear is an apple, and so are the medlar and the mountain ash, which latter is not an ash at all.
Is a turnip a cabbage? Yes, one variety at least of it is. This is the queer vegetable known as kohlrabi, which, although classed by scientists among the Brassica, or cabbage, family, has huge roots just like a turnip.
The cucumber is really a fruit and not a vegetable. The same remark applies to the tomato, which is really a fruit also.
The gooseberry is a currant. It is not the least like it in either appearance or flavor, yet both belong to the same family of Ribes.
The onion is a charming little flower. Its various species bearing white, yellow, blue and rose colored blossoms, many produced in beautiful drooping clusters. Originally the onion was a flowering plant, but the cultivation of certain of its varieties has produced the now world famous vegetable.

SIR JOHN SOANE'S WHIM.
The Practical Joke a Celebrated Man Played on Posterity.
One of the most famous of postmorning jokes was that perpetrated by the donor of the celebrated Sonne museum of pictures and other valuable objects' art to England, the late Sir John Soane, who died in 1837. In his will Sir John made provision for the opening of three sealed cupboards on certain specified dates in the presence of the trustees. In 1868, that is to say almost thirty years after the death of the testator, the first of the mysterious receptacles was with much ceremony and breaking of seals opened in the presence of a committee of men, with then president of the Royal academy, Sir F. Grant, at their head. Instead of a priceless treasure or some evidence that would throw an entirely new light upon some doubtful incident in political history the contents of the cupboard proved to be worthless accounts, letters and stationery.
Twenty years passed by, and the interest that had smoldered after the disappointment of 1866 was again fanned into flame at the prospect of breaking the seals of the second cupboard, at which rite there were present among others Dr. Alfred Waterhouse, R. A., and Sir (then Dr.) B. W. Richardson. Like the cupboard mentioned in the well known nursery rhyme, Sir John's second cabinet proved "bare" of any sensation, the contents being chiefly composed of letters relating to certain long forgotten family quarrels that had not even the merit of being interesting. If some of those authorized to be present at the opening of the third and last receptacle of mystery were dubious about the profit that would accrue by letting the light of day fall upon the contents thereof after sixty years' darkness one at least, Sir B. W. Richardson, looked forward with unabated interest to that day in 1896 when the last seal would be broken and the mystery solved, but he, alas, died just two days before the ceremony was performed, and the fact that Sir John had played a practical joke upon posterity was duly confirmed by the presence of a collection of perfectly worthless letters and papers.

with water being out of the canal now. It is not enough to say that the water will be out at the time when the least inconvenience will be done us. It is well to fix firmly in our minds that while the water is out of the canal the other fellow is getting all of our water and his own. Also, that work can be done more cheaply if done at just the proper speed with just the right number of men and teams than if crowded with more men and teams. The other fellow would be benefited by having the water out of the canal as long as possible. Susposing the work was all done and there should be a washout, and in order to quickly get the water back into our canal there must be expended $20,000 to $30,000. Are the other folks going to raise this amount? By delaying a little, weeks and months could pass before the water would be in again and we could easily lose enough water to ruin an orange crop, while the other fellow would be benefited by the use of our water. It goes without saying that such is a most dangerous and demoralizing condition to put one's self in. Without impugning the motives of he other fellow it is only human nature for him to hold back a little, where the benefits to him are so great. The only safe plan to adopt is that we have entire and absolute control of the work while the water is out of the canal. Though this seems exceedingly unreasonable, on its face, it is absolutely necessary to our safety, and I consider it of more importance than all other points combined.
What are we likely to get in return for placing ourselves in such dangerous conditions? Mr. Bradford says we can save 250 inches of water now going no waste. But we can save this same 250 inches of water much more cheaply by ourselves. Furthermore, if we need or desire the canal cemented we can do this much more cheaply by ourselves than we can do half of a joint canal, owing to the extra excavating on the larger work.
The greatest benefit we are supposed to get is the Irvine land at the head of our canal, together with his riparian rights. By consent and co-operation of the S. A. V. I. Co. these can be bought at a cost to us of about $2100. But it is said that S. A. V. I. Co. will not consent to buy these rights, but hold this as a club over us to join us into an obvious deal.

ANIMAL SWIMMERS.
The Squirrel Is Very Swift and the Rabbit Is Oddly Awkward.
Almost all animals know how to swim without having to learn it. As soon as they fall into the water or are driven into it they instinctively make the proper motions and not only manage to keep afloat, but propel themselves without trouble.
Exceptions are the monkey, the camel, giraffe and llama, which cannot swim without assistance. Camels and llamas have to be helped across water, and giraffes and monkeys drown if they enter it. Now and then both of the latter species manage to cross waterways when they are driven to extremities, just as human beings occasionally can keep themselves above water through sheer fright.
A funny though able swimmer is the rabbit. He submerges his body with the exception of head and tail. The latter sticks away up into the air, and his hind legs make "soap suds" as he churns the water madly to get away. But with all his awkwardness he is a swift swimmer and is only beaten by the squirrel among the land animals.
The squirrel swims with his heavy tail sunk away down in the water and his head held high. He cleaves the waves like a duck, and a man in a rowboat has all he can do to keep abreast of the swimming squirrel.
One thing that none of the land living animals does is to dive. No matter how hard pressed a swimming deer, rabbit, squirrel or other purely terrestrial animal may be it will remain above water. But the muskrat, beaver, ice bear and otter dive immediately.

MERRY MEALTIMES.
The Table No Place For Fault Findin, Nagging and Strife.
Has it ever been your lot to sit at a table with a group of young folks who ate the meal in silence or, with a few constrained remarks, looked askance at the head of the family before venturing on any remark? I have seen such a sight on more than one occasion. Doctors have told us over and over again of the beneficial results arising from a meal eaten with a contented frame of mind and with cheerful surroundings; but, sad to say, there are many households where each meal is a constant scene of bickering, nagging and fault finding.
This is not only the case where there are young children, who require a reprimand occasionally for carelessness, but I am speaking of those homes where the girls and boys are well into their teens. Wrong is that parent, either father or mother, who chooses the hour when all are assembled round the table to mention some half forgot-en grievance or to find some fault.
If any trivial thing has been done wrong or any duty omitted wait until dinner or tea is over before you scold. blame or reprimand. Let the food which God gives us for the purpose of nourishing and sustaining our bodies have the opportunity of accomplishing hat end, which cannot be the case if every mouthful is swallowed with elbera a sarcastic word or an uncomplimentary remark. More indigestion, nervousness and other derangements are caused by the too common fault of uncomfortable mealtimes than many people would suppose, and it is our positive duty, which we should all try to remember, to make those hours of the day cheerful and agreeable to the children and to set them an example which you would be the first to notice and approve in others.—Scottsman.

The Chattanooga Advertising Company,
with laboratories and general offices at Shattanooga, Tennessee, and branch houses at St. Louis, Mo., and San Francisco, Cal., has become one of the largest proprietary medicine concerns in the world. In the growth of this great business two factors have been dominant: The merit of its products—Wine of Cardui and Theodford’s Blackbraught—has been widely recognized and the original advertising methods adopted have excited great comment. The publicity for these medicines does not consist of the catch phrase and extravagant statement, too often employed in advertising today, but instead he plain story of experience with the medicines given in the plain language of the people themselves. The following letter is a fair sample of the thousands of Wine of Cardui testimonials published during the past twenty years: 2068 Eastern Avenue.
Cincinnati, Ohio May 20, 1902
I consider Wine of Cardui a most excellent woman’s remedy. It is certainly specific as a tonic and regulator. For eight years I suffered with female double. I had intense pain in the back and head, leaving me so weak that I was unable to stand at times. Medicine did not seem to help me, but after all remedies had failed me Wine of Cardui proved my one great, true friend. What a relief I experienced! It came only a few days after I started taking it. I used faithfully for four months and gradually grew stronger and better. I am now regular to the day and or the past two years have enjoyed blessed good health. I certainly wish every sick and suffering woman could snow of your blessed medicine, how much pain and suffering it would prevent, and what a difference it would make in thousands of homes where there is sickness and sorrow today; if they had Wine of Cardui it would bring relief and joy instead.

Confessions of a Priest
Rev. Jno. S. Cox of Wake, Ark., writes: "For 12 years I suffered from yellow jaundice. I consulted a number of physicians and tried all sorts of medicines but got no relief. Then I began the use of Electric Bitters and feel that I am now cured of a disease that had me in its grasp for 12 years."

Liver and Kidneys
It is highly important that these organs should properly perform their functions.

"Love lightens labor," the saying runs, and in a sense it is true. But even love cannot lighten labor or make it easy for the woman who is in constant suffering from inflammation, bearing down pains or other womanly diseases. The one thing that can make work easy for women is sound health, and Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the thing that will give sound health to sick women.
Dr. Pierce has so much faith in his "Prescription" that he offers to pay $500 in legal money of the United States for any case of Leucorrhea, Female Weakness, Prolapsus, or Falling of Womb which he cannot cure. All he asks is a fair and reasonable trial of his means of cure.
"I suffered from female weakness for five months," writes Miss Belle Hedrick, of Nye, Putnam Co., W. Va. "I was treated by a good physician but he never seemed to do me any good. I wrote to Dr. R. V. Pierce for advice which I received, telling me to take his Favorite Prescription." When I had used the medicines a month, my health was much improved. It has continued to improve until now I can work at almost all kinds of housework. I had scarcely any appetite, but it is all right now. Have gained several pounds in weight. Dr. Pierce's medicines have done wonderfully well here. I would advise all who suffer from chronic diseases to write to Dr. Pierce."
"Favorite Prescription" makes weak women strong, sick women well.
Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser is sent free on receipt of stamps to pay expense of mailing only. Send 21 one-cent stamps for the paper-covered book, or 31 stamps for the cloth-bound volume. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N.Y.
FACTS ABOUT ANAHEIM.
Sketch of the industries and Resources of 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 foot-ills, 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 high.
ANCIENT CITIES.
Jerusalem in the days of Solomon probably did not contain 20,000 people.
Constantinople at the time of its greatest splendor as capital of the eastern empire had a population of about 1,500,000.
Babylon, whose name has come to be synonymous with dense population, never had over 1,200,000 inhabitants in its palmest days, so the archaeologists declare.
Athens, when she led the Greek states in repelling the invasion of Xerxes, had only 30,000 inhabitants, but Herodotus speaks of this number as if it was something to boast of.
Rome, the mistress of the world, the great city to which all roads led, "Rome the Eternal," did not exceed 2,000,000 in population. Gibbon, indeed, believes that it had only 1,200,000, and in this estimate he and Milman agree.
A Unique Command.
At Boulogne, during a royal reception, a number of English ladies in their anxiety to see everything pressed with such force against the soldiers who were keeping the line that the latter were forced to give way and generally were to use the expression of policemen—"hindered in the execution of their duty." The officer in command, observing the state of affairs called out:
"One roll of the drum—if they don't stand back kiss them all."
After the first sound of the drum the ladies took to flight.
"If they had been French," said a Parisian journal, "they would have remained to a woman." — Illustrated Bits.
Policewoman's Caution Washed.
Just now the companions of a recent recruit to the police force are poking fun at him because of a remark he made a few nights ago when he found it necessary to arrest a very old offender. Arrived at the police station, he ushered the culprit in with the injunction to "mind the steps."
"G'lang with you!" said the prisoner scornfully. "I knowed these steps before you was born!" — New York Press.
Their Rewards.
"Who lives in that little cottage down there by the lane?"
"There dwells the man who wrote the poem that made Beasley's shaving soap famous."
"And who resides in the splendid mansion on yonder hill?"
"Beasley." — Chicago Record-Herald.
MRS. GECELIA STOWE,
Orator, Entre Nous Club.
178 Warren Avenue,
CHICAGO, IL., Oct. 22, 1902.
For nearly four years I suffered from ovarian troubles. The doctor insisted on an operation as the only way to get well. I, however strongly objected to an operation. My husband felt disheartened as well as I; for home with a sick woman is a disconsolate place at best. A friendly druggist advised him to get a bottle of Wine of Cardui for me to try, and he did so. I began to improve in a few days and my recovery was very rapid. Within eighteen weeks I was another being.
Mrs. Stowe's letter shows every woman how a home is saddened by female weaknesses and how completely Wine of Cardui cures that sickness and brings health and happiness again. Do not go on suffering. Go to your druggist today and secure a $1.00 bottle of Wine of Cardui.

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 foot-ills, 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 rosts 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’s 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. A rich farm, banks several adequate commercial houses, two hotels and two newspapers. The city also owns its water and lighting plant.
FACTS ABOUT ORANGE CO.
The census bureau has issued a bulletin on agriculture in California which we quote from extensively in another part of this issue. One of the interesting features of the report is the paragraph giving the number of farms and acres of farming lands in the five Southern California counties. The pre-eminence of Orange county is apparent:
Counties No. Farms Acres
Los Angeles .6577 896,963
Orange .2388 599,436
Riverside .2440 477,067
San Bernardino .2350 219,182
San Diego .2698 809,419
But it is in the acreage of irrigated lands that Orange county takes easy arrival at the police station, he ushered the culprit in with the injunction to "mind the steps."
"G'lang with you!" said the prisoner scornfully. "I know these steps before you was born!"—New York Press.

Beautiful Complexions
Are spoiled by using any kind of preparation that fills the pores of the skin. The best way to secure a clear complexion, free from sallowness, pimples, blotches, etc., is to keep the liver in good order. An occasional dose of Herbine will cleanse the bowels, regulate the liver, and so establish a clear, healthy complexion. 50c at J. P. Hatzfeld's.

THE SANDERS-ARNOTT DISC PLOW.
The solid cast frame now being used on the Sanders-Arnott Disc Plow is the most valuable feature added to the Disc Plow since they were placed on sale. See them before buying. No more sprung beams out of line or bolts sheared off. We have a new pattern four gang plow for the largest ranches. Any disc plow without the solid cast frame is old style. Do not be misled into buying one. Made in one, two, three and four gang patterns. The most successful disc plow in the ma rket. Draft reduced 50 per cent. Send for circulars. We have a liberal proposition to offer any rancher who wishes to investigate the merits of this plow. Write for it

which we quote from extensively in another part of this issue. One of the interesting features of the report is the paragraph giving the number of farms and acres of farming lands in the five Southern California counties. The pre-eminence of Orange county is apparent:
Counties. No. farms. Acres.
Los Angeles...6577 895,063
Orange...2388 596,436
Riverside...2440 477,067
San Bernardino...2350 219,182
San Diego...2608 809,416
But it is in the acreage of irrigated lands that Orange county takes easy precedence over the other counties of Southern California:
Counties. Acres.
Los Angeles...85,644
Orange...41,549
Riverside...32,947
San Bernardino...37,877
San Diego...10,027
The area of Orange county is 780 square miles; that of Los Angeles, 3880; that of Riverside, 7008; that of San Bernardino, 20,055, and that of San Diego, 8400 square miles.
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.
Riverside embraces nine times its area, yet it irrigates 9000 more acres or a fourth more than the belauded county on the east.
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 percent 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. It is the handsomest and most productive county that lies outdoors and is settling up faster than any other in the State.
