i V HONOR TO CALIFORNIA! AN h honor to American literature! A book for the masses; everybody should have it, particularly everybody on She Pacinc ru;isi. It tells the merchant Of the coun- try and It's products, and how business was conducted in early times. IL tells the phy- Sician of medicine, the lawyer of courts and politics, the clergyman Of religion, the mechanic Of manufactures. IL Is the best Of reading for the household, exceed lngly interesting and instructive for young people. It Is goOo for men Of all classes, for it tells about life in its various phases and conditions. It is good for women, for it tells how women lived, and how they were treated in times gone by- Ii is Of in- terest to the architect, for 1t tells and illus- trates all about the architecture Of a peO- pie once noted for large cities, huge mOnu- ments and magnificent palaces. Lovers Of art can here revel in the descriptions of the mysteries Of the pen and brush, as yielded by a people long since extinct. Modern musicians can study with delight the lovers sefenades, the festive songs and the religious chants of these wonder full people. For the scholar We need not say that the work has never known an equal, as our own word would be tame compared tO the highly fiattering letters which have been received from the most eminent men Of letters in England and America.
 In conclusion, all classes can find some portion Of the work Of particular interest to them, and taken as a whole it cannot be spared from the possession Of any who care for a knowledge of the past history present resources and future prospects Of this great western coast-our adopted home.
 Interesting in matter, standard In char Rcter, it is a literary monument that will forever reflect honorable credit to the coast, as through it's pages the fact will be car rled the entire length and breadth, Of the land that although we have wealth un- told. we have those among us who have, as President Gilman said, that patient industry which Is more precious still1'

How TO DESTROY ASTs.-A chalk mark, at least half and inch in depth, around the upper edge of sugar buck cts, barrels, etc., will not admit one ant into the interior. The same mark drawn on the edge of shelves will also prevent the approach of an ant as they are not able to crawl over the chalk. But if they are numerous among jars and jelly pots, take a large sponge, wet in cold water, and squeeze 1t nearly dry, and then sprinkle fine white sugar over it. Place 1t on the infested shelf, and next morning din 1t quickly and carefully into a bowl of boiling watar.
