of the earth, the five zones, some of the
principal circles of the sphere, the opacity
of the moon and the true causes of lunar
eclipses, and predicted an eclipse. About

the varying attitudes of the stars by change
of place, that the earth must be round, that
there might be antipodes on the opposite
part of the globe; that Venus was the

on its own axis and revolved about the
sun, which doctrine was regarded by his
contemporaries as so absurd that he nearly
lost his life.

TOBACCO PAPER.-A new and less OBJ

found for the tobacco plant. It's stems and
waste are claimed to be equal to linen raes

THE THIRD BELT,

Or the hydraulic, grazing, timber. and eter-
nal snow belt, is a region for the greater
part unfit for any kind of culture. The
winters are too long, the country too rough,
and the weather too cold to permit the
growing of much fruit or of anything else
outside OF hay, potatoes, and the like. 1t
is rich timber land and thousands of
cattle and sheep are taken every summer
from the valleys to that part of the noun
tains, where they find excellent pastures.
The most of the hydraulic mines are stu
ated IN that belt, that is in Nevada and
Placer counties; and the hydraulic miner
may gaze at ease while at work piping down
the valuable fruit land" at the eternal
snow-capped peaks of the Sierra, looming
up in the distance at height of 5000 to
S,oOO feet above the sea, keeping in store
for miner and farmer, under their white
mantle OF snow, that water, the life and
salvation of both.
such are the various climatic belts to be
found in the mining counties of the Sierra
Nevadas of California, and people will be
apt to see that the resources of that rather
little-understood region are much greater
than generally thought of at first sight.
The most obscure belt, however, in the
eyes OF the public seems to be that snow
horticultural or middle belt where the
quartz lodes are mostly located, and which
is regared by so many people as a land fit
only for mining so l will dwell a little

AS the center of that belt, as far as this
county is concerned, we see that for years
past the minds of our people have been in
tent as well On horticultural and agricult-
ural pursuits as on mining enterprises.

time to come, remain the main indus.

of existence by more injunctions. But
the idea / want to impress is that those
other resources of this section have been
thoroughly tested by great many of our
people, and that our San Francisco daiIies
need not take the pains of making their
readers believe that this section " might"
be able to produce what it has in fact pro-
duced for years, and when hydraulic min
ing was in full blast.

The small grower or the large grower

DR.. MORRIS CURES A LADY's DE-
FoRMIrY.--For number of years
Mrs. Mcmillan, highly respected
lady of Doddridge county, suffered
from a cancer on her nose. 1t made
such progress that the removal of
her nose became necessary thus
leaving an unsightly deformity upon
the good lady's face. She endured
this for a long time which caused
her much discomfort and annoyed
and embarrassed her friends. HAY
ing heard of DR.. Morris skill and
success in surgical matters of this
kind she applied to him, and a
short time ago he completed for her
new nose that not only hides her
deformity, but by it's perfect shape and
color restores the natural contour of
her face. 1t can scarcely be told
from the natural member and rests
on her face with perfect ease and
comfort to her. She is delighted
with the success of the work and
after having worn it a few days told
friend that she never paid for any
thing she had ever bought more
cheerfully than she did for her new
nose. DR.. Morris has contrived
several fine surgical devices Of this
sort during his years of practice but
none more perfect than this one. 1t
speaks volumes for his skill and sue
cess as practitioner Had he di-
rected his attention to this branch
of surgery he would no doubt have
achieved the same degree of emf
nence he has attained in the dental
profession.

The LOCAL PAPER THE BEsT.-The
local paper is the best paper in the
world. All city papers cannot sup
ply the place Of the home paper. No
other contains the marriages and
deaths, to say nothing of the divorces
and births. No other paper gives
the time of the next ball, picnic or
public meeting; no other publishes
the roll of honor of the public schools,
no other discusses the affairs of the
town and county, your farm products,
your church services, festivals and
public schools; it gives the local
news which can be obtained from no
other source. Everybody reads it,
and every business firm should ad-
vertise in it, This is why the local
paper is the best in the world and
the best advertising medium for its
circulation. 1t reaches every house
hold, no family library is complete
without it's local paper, and no
live business will do well without it.
