A Boundary Line.

The committee appointed by the City
Council q week ago to rearrange the
ordinances relating to steam engines and
factories in the city limits has not YET
prepared its report or recommendations.
1t is proposed, however, to set aside a
portion Of the city where all factories
will be allowed to erect smokestacks and
where engines will be allowed to run
under certain restrictions. 1t is pro-
posed that the district shall be east OF
San Pedro street, and it is expected thai
when the line has once been established
those desiring to bring industries here
will commence at once. The difficulty
in the past, it is stated, has been that
property-owners object to the erection Of

SIXTY MILES TO THE MOON.
The Enormous Telescope Which 4

The Enormous Telescope Which Is
to he Erected ON Wilson's Peak.
The following is from the Boston
Herald of recent date, and is headed
Dragging to Some Purpose" :"
"When, some ten or twelve years ago,
the Lick Observatory of California
ordered of Mr.. Alvan Clark, of Cam
bridge, Mass, thirty-four-inch object
glass for telescope, the size seemed Sc
preposterous that. taken in connection
with the rather ominous name of the
donor of the funds, it looked like fair
and square notice to the universe that
California intended to lick the
whole astronomical world, Wash
ington, Greenwich, Paris and st.
Petersburg included. What was more
to the purpose, she actually did it.
A glass OF such power was constructed as
to bring the moon within 200 miles of
San Francisco, and 80 to furnish its citi-
zens with a lunar line immeasurably
shorter than could be boasted by any
rival city. One would think that that
were laurels enough for State scarcely
forty years old. But no, the glorious
spirit of brag, finally developed as it may
be on the Atlantic coast, swells to SUBJ
Inner proportions when it catches sight
of the immeasurable Pacific. Everything
in California has to be on the scale of the
Pacific. The trees must be 400 feet high,
and potatoes four to the bushel. Why
not, equally, observatories. For some
time, therefore, ardent spirits in the
State have been chafng over the idea of
having the moon as much as 200 miles
away. 1t has been making them feel so
lonely that at last the discomfort has
found vent on pecuniary scale so i'm
mense that the University of Southern
California has been empowered to order
of Mr.. Clark a forty-two inch lens, that
will bring the moon within a distance of
sixty miles, and so serve Mr.. Lick him
self with the same sauce with which he
served the rest of the world. With five
years to do 1t in, and 1000 to oil the
way, MIR. Clarke says he can accomplish

A WOMAN'S WAY.

A Startling Business Proposition.
little over six weeks ago Mrs. Fowler of 327
Ellis street, San Francisco, stopped in at leading
city druggists to ask what effect joys Vegetable
Sarsaparilla, about which she had heard so much
recently, would bavein cases of dyspepsia and sick
headache. She was assured that in most cases it
would relieve both. She was, however, soincredu-
Ions that finally the druggist gave hera BOTTLE not
to be paid for unless it effected cure. PROPOSE
ton SO sartlangy practical has SELDOM if ever be-
fore, been made. The gjustreceivedis is the
convincing conclusion, and tells its own story:
San Francisco, February 8, 1883.
DEAR Sin: fwrite to admit that, notwithstand-
ing my misg wings, Joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla
did all that you promised. had tried so many
prescriptions, to no purpose, that had come to
believe nothing would relieve my dyspepsia and
sick headaches, but have not had a return of
either since I commenced takngit. Ibelieve am
permanently cur ed, but will, out OF an abundance
OF caution, continue to take treguarly for while
yet. You have my permission to make this public,
for tits my belief that remedy that will cure dys-
pepsia and prevent sick headaches should be gen.
orally known. Respectfully,
