Shrewd Druggists. "The cocaine tiend is more of a nuisance than the man who wants to be straightened up after a jag," said a druggist. "A 'coke fiend' would barter his shoes and his shirt for a bit of the memory killer, and he works all sorts of schemes to get the stuff. "Not long ago a chap entered the store while I was busy," said my friend the druggist, "and asked me for a bunch of prescription blanks for Dr. Blank, whose office is only a square away. It was a moment of preoccupation on my part, and I handed out a pad of blanks. In a couple of days the same chap returned with a prescription for cocaine, signed by the same physician. He didn't get it. I happened to know the signature of the physician, and it was not done well on this particular prescription. "More than a prescription is necessary to fool a druggist. It looks easy to copy a form from one piece of paper to another, but not one person in ten who does not know the medicine can do it successfully. We can spot a forger more easily than a bank cashier. There's always something missing when an amateur writes a prescription."—Pittsburg Gazette. National Campaign Funds. During national campaigns the books of the treasurer and manager are kept in a peculiar way. Instead of entering accounts by name each account is given a number and is thus carried throughout the campaign. The key to this legendary system is known only to two or three trusted men, and the accountants who keep the books have not the slightest knowledge of what state committee or other organization or individual stands behind the number. After the campaign is over the books are burned, and all the records, except possibly some private memoranda kept by the manager, are wiped out of existence. Such a thing as the auditing of campaign expenditures was never known and probably never will be known so far as national campaigns are concerned. Everything is trusted to the honor of the responsible men, and I have never heard that any of the managers of a national campaign were suspected of betrayal of their trust in any way.—Walter Wellman in Success. Old Hlekory. Many explanations have been given Rapid spread of Plants. It is marvelous how rapidly some plants will spread themselves over wide stretches of land. The writer was struck with the way in which the yellow charlock took possession of the line when the Meon Valley railway was being made. The very next spring after the embankments were thrown up their sides were clothed with this rampant and conspicuous crucifer. A line of yellow across the country marked in many places the course of the railway. Popples, too, for some unknown reason, will occasionally appear in strange and wonderful profusion. The striking instance related by Lord Macaulay may be quoted by way of illustration. After the battle of Landen the ground, he tells us, "during many months was strewn with skulls and bones of men and horses and with fragments of hats and shoes, saddles and holsters. The next summer the soil, fertilized by 20,000 corpses, broke forth into millions of popples. The traveler who, on the road from St. Tron to Tirlemont, saw that vast sheet of rich scarlet spreading from Landen to Neerwinder could hardly help fancying that the figurative prediction of the Hebrew prophet was literally accomplished—that the earth was disclosing her blood and refusing to cover the stain."—Longman's Magazine. A Zuni Baby. The Zuni child spends his early days in a cradle. But a cradle in Zuniland does not mean down pillows, silken coverlets and fluffy laces; it is only a flat board. Just the length of the baby, with a hood like a doll's buggy top over the head. Upon this hard bed the baby is bound like a mummy, the coverings wound round and round him until the little fellow cannot move except to open his mouth and eyes. Sometimes he is unrolled and looks out into the bare whitewashed room, blinks at the fire burning on the hearth and fixes his eyes earnestly on the wolf and cougar skins that serve as chairs and beds and carpets in the Zuni home. By the time he is two or three years old he has grown into a plump little bronze creature, with the straightest of coarse black hair and the biggest and roundest of black eyes. He is now out of the cradle and trots about the house and the village. When the weather is bad he wears a small coarse shirt and always a necklace of beads or turquoise. Facts About the Philippines (Continued from 1st Page) free from cholera, plague and pox. Sporadic cases have occurred within the last few months With cholera and smallpox, thieves has been almost invariably to the provinces. The thorough cination which has been in place in Manila for several years, and in progress throughout the island practically eliminated smallpox Manila and materially reduced ease in the provinces, where in past it has been a dreaded scourge. The provincial health report practically no cholera, and with next few months it is confidentpected that this disease will extinct. Plague has never reached this incense since American occupation cept at the port of Cebu. measures were instituted, and to ease promptly eradicated. Provincial health work many difficulties. In the firstthe vast majority of health officials, who have no knowledge health measures or sanitation ever, it is hoped that when all social health presidents have through the Sanitary School, erated by the Health Board in better service will be secured. Second place, difficulty of transport offers many disadvantages. No civil government has inaugurated an inter-island coast guard with steamers calling at all their ports, and with further per se telegraph and cable services difficulty has been greatly ripe However, considering that water portation is everywhere needed necessity slow, this factor will for some years to come an obsessive expeding business or inaugurate drastic health measures, undirect control of the central Manila. As conditions permitted,ization maintained in Manila,the cholera epidemic was graduallyduced, until today the organ comprises seven health districtsof which is under the chargeAmerican physician: a waste Old Hickory. Many explanations have been given as to the sobriquet "Old Hickory" as applied to Andrew Jackson. There is an older explanation than that suggested by James Parton in his life of Jackson—that the title was evolved from progressive adjectives, starting with "tough" as applied to his endurance as a walker. In the early days of Tennessee's statehood Jackson, then a major general of volunteers, raised a body of troops to put down a formidable rising of the Creek Indians. During the campaign there was much suffering from lack of food, and it is related that Jackson received his popular sobriquet of "Old Hickory" from his subsisting on hickory nuts, with the purpose of inspiring his men with renewed fortitude by his example, the title also being a fitting one for the "tough" peculiarities of his temperament. Took Him For a Sheriff. In his young days, when the late John Coleman was an architect's assistant, but already had aspirations toward the drama, he obtained through a chance business connection an introduction to Charles Mathews. Before the interview a little incident took place which throws a striking light upon the public favorite's precarious position. Mathews had just handed his wife from her carriage and was entering the Haymarket when the young man came up. "His back was turned to me; so, approaching timidly, I touched him upon the arm," says Coleman in telling of the incident. "Turning round like a shot, he inquired. 'At whose suit?'" A Small Boy's Invention. Sir Hiram Maxim began to invent almost as soon as he could lisp. When but a small boy he invented a sort of sextant made of wood, with sights, a piece of thread with a bullet at the end, and an indicator for the thread to swing along. On a dark night he took his instrument outside, and while he sighted it to the north star his little sister read the indicator. "Forty-five, Hiram," she called out. This meant they were living in 45 degrees north latitude. The observation proved to be perfectly accurate. Poor Perkins! "There's Perkins—you know Perkins—entered into an agreement with his wife soon after their marriage twenty years ago that whenever either lost temper or stormed the other was to keep silence." And the scheme worked? "Admirably. Perkins has kept silence for twenty years." Doesn't Care For It. A Thousand Ways of Lying. There are a thousand ways of lying, but all lead to the same end. It does not matter whether you wear lies, tell lies, act lies or live lies, your character is ruined all the same. There is no more demoralizing influence in modern life than the unnatural straining to seem other than we are. Nothing else so quickly lowers self respect, takes the fine edge off honor and blunts the conscience as the sense of being a sham, a gilded fraud or an unreality. It cheapens standards, lowers ideals,aps ambition and takes the spring and joy out of living. No man can make the most and the best of himself until he is absolutely honest with his own soul and unfalteringly true to his highest ideals,and this is impossible while he is living a lie—Success. The Moorish Woman at Home. When not fixed up for visitors the Moorish woman is always en dishabille, lounging about all day in a loose cotton or muslin nightgown, rose or yellow being her favorite shade, her bare feet thrust into slippers very much down at the heel and a flower stuck in her wisp of uncombed hair, which, from a continual use of henna dye, is apt to break out in patches of yellow, green or gray. Hairbrushes are unknown,a very coarse comb alone being used,which may account for the fact that the hair is never glossy or well kept. She has a devouring passion for paints,powders and perfumes,attar of roses and sandalwood being in special demand—Pilgrim. A Tree Distillery. On the Canary islands grows a fountain tree,a tree most needed in some parts of the islands. It is said that the leaves constantly distill a quantity of water that is sufficient to furnish drink to every living creature in Hiero,nature having provided this remedy for the drought of the island.Every morning near this part of the island a cloud of mist arises from the sea,which the winds force against the steep cliff on which this tree grows,and it is from the mist that the tree distills the water.

Acts About the Philippines ORANGE COUNTY'S UPWARD FLIGHT (Continued from 1st Page) Controller Colgan has forwarded a copy of his annual report giving the assessed property valuation of the counties of the state, in which it is seen that Orange county is fifteenth in the list of fifty-seven counties in the state, Alpine being the last, with a total assessed valuation of $480,829. The assessed valuation of the fifteen leading counties is given as follows: 1. San Francisco...$503,053,557 2. Los Angeles...201,509,786 3. Alameda...109,714,598 4. Santa Clara...55,468,822 5.

Its railroad valuation amounts to $2,706,800, while that of Orange county is about half that amount, being $1,451,868. San Bernardino has a railroad valuation of $5,072,719, and San Diego $2,552,183. Los Angeles' railroad valuation amounts to $5,483,057, while that of San Francisco is $161,098, and Alameda $2,242,464. The total valuation of all the counties of the state as given is $1,550,571,761. When reference is made to the geographical area of our two neighboring counties on the east, as compared with that of Orange—San Bernardino being twenty-six times our size and Riverside nineteen times—it will be seen that Orange county holds her own quite well.

Old people, puny children, weak, pale women, nurs As conditions permitted, the organization maintained in Manila during the cholera epidemic was gradually reeased, until today the organization comprises seven health districts, each which is under the charge of an American physician; a water front, arbor and river inspection service, which is conducted by means of a steam launch; the San Lazaro hospitals, which comprise eight departments, viz.,ague, cholera, smallpox, women's mosquito, morgue, crematory and steam disinfecting plant. This institution is charged of an American physician, who is assisted by one American and two Filipino physicians. The hospital is a corps of American trained nurses and necessary attendants. The new 20-bed infectious disease hospital included as one of the departments of San Lazaro has been recently completed and has every appointment of a modern hospital. A sewerage system for Manila is assured, plans and specifications have been completed. This new system will move a constant danger of pollution which the Manila water supply is now subjected, and has given the Board Health great concern. The Marina river will be dammed at a point on the mountains above habitation, and great lake will be thus formed of a mountain water which will be conducted direct to Manila by gravitation. The method now in vogue of storing water from the Marquina ever after it has drained a valley inhabited by some 10,000 people, will be discontinued. The paving of the streets of Manila, the inauguration of additional parks, the walling of the esteros, the installation of the tide gate system, the drainage and filling of the moats around the called City, the gradual elevation of the city of two or more feet, are permanent health measures which upon recommendation of the Board of Health have been given due attention and will within the next few years be completed.

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 yet its irrigated acres exceed this jumbo county by approximately ten per cent. San Diego is eleven trunks yet it irrigates 25,000 acres on the county on the southcentral is the former's irrigation as compared with that almost the irrigated Diego and Riverside county.

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.

Acres. Los Angeles .85,644 Orange .41,549 Riverside .32,947 San Bernardino .37,877 San Diego .16,022 The area of Orange county is 780 square miles; that of Los Angeles, 3880; that of Riverside, 7008; that of San Bernardino, 20055, 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.
