Seymour. California's Wealth In the recent bulletin issued by the census bureau, California is given sixth place among the most wealthy states of the Union. The figures are based on the assessed valuations as reported by the various counties of the several states and the fifteen leading states are as follows: State Prop. Valuation New York $14,760,000,006 Pennsylvania 11,473,000,000 Illinois 8,816,000,000 Ohio 5,946,000,000 Massachusetts 4,956,000,000 California 4,115,000,000 Iowa 4,048,000,000 Missouri 3,759,900,000 Minnesota 3,343,090,000 Michigan 3,282,000,000 New Jersey 3,235,000,000 Indiana 3,105,000,000 Wisconsin 2,838,000,000 Texas 2,836,600,000 Kansas 2,253,000,000 The comparison is an interesting one but would be much more so, if we knew that the basis of valuation was the same or somewhere near the same in the different states. As a matter of fact, however, there is a wide range in this matter; in some states the assessors figure low and in others high. Assessments range all the way from a third to two-thirds of the actual value of property. In California the assessment as a rule is pretty high, but even then...

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address: F. J.
