THIRTY YEARS PRACTICE.
A Letter from an Eminent Physician

Mr.. EDITOR: At the risk of indorsing pro-
prietary preparation, 1 have few words in
favor of new laxative principle. But first,
how l came to discover it. patient asked
about taking joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla. AS
sarsaparillas usually contain mercury or iodides
l objected, and asked for the formula, which
finding purely vegetable, and so mild as to be to
my mind almost inert, consented. Imagine
my astonishment when perfect laxative action
was reported. 1t has two great points. First,
being purely vegetable, it is (unlike mercury
not cumulative in the system, being easily car
ried off by the digestive processes; and second,
it is effective with less quantity of the cathar-
tic principle than has hitherto been attainable.
1t in this respect ranks as a discovery and ap-
proaches the IDEAL viz: the least medicine con.
sistent with the greatest good AS people take
laxativess indiscriminately, it is important for
them to know at least one that is safe for con-
tinuous use; hence this communication. The
natural laxative effects Of this preparation must
for the reasons above, interest both the public
and the profession.

whale stranded on the beach at that
point.
An editorial in the Salt Lake Tribune,
speaking of the failure of the Southern
Pacific to put in branch feeders to its
main lines, says:
Nine years ago the Wood river trade
was pointed out to the agents of the
company. 1t was shown to them that
a short line over an easy route would
give that company the full monopoly
of all the trade of that range, but the
answer was: "Let the people 60 on and
develop their country. 1t is a risky
business to build railroads into a new
mining camp" The men in charge of
the Union Pacific, under very much
more serious conditions, pushed the
Short Line through to a connection with
the line which was coming down from
Portland. There was not much trade
for their road for year or two, but for
the last three years they have had more
than they could provide cars for hand
ling. 1t might have been just SO with
the Central Pacific 1t was in the
hands of the owners of the
Central Pacific to make theirs the most
valuable property on the continent.
They continue to decline, and if they
proceed in their programme, by this
time three years hence there will be a
shorter line, over better grades, through
richer country driven from this city to
San Francisco, with branch to Los An
geles, and all that road will only cost
above $17 100000. After the first two
hundred miles of it shall have been
completed, the men who hold the money
bags in the east will be anxious to buy
the bonds, which will not only complete
the road, but pay the projectors about
$40, 900 mile profit. That is better
than nothing. If that is the best this
city can do, if it prefers to pay interest
on $50 900 mile rather than $13, 900. no
one can complain.

California Views.

The following is from a recent issue of
the Chicago Herald:
'Glimpses of California" was the
title of the series of stereopticon views
shown before the Chicago Camera Club
last night at the club-rooms, 1872 Wabash
avenue. A very cleverly-written paper
under the same title explained the
views and told of the difficulty and the
fun that were experienced in obtaining
the set. In all there were over fifty
views exposed, and they gave a clear
representation of the beauties and re-
sources of the Golden State" The
photographs were made by the members
OF the Pacific Coast Amateur Photograph
Association, and are being exchanged
with the other clubs of the camera as
sociation, of which the Chicago club is
member. The paper was written by
one of the California club, and was read
last night by Professor M. L. Williston,
the president of the local club. A set of
Chicago photographs is now being made
by the Chicago amateurs, and with a
lecture by Professor Williston will soon
be presented to the public.

their brandy and store it at very little
expense, and avoid paying the tax until
a purchaser was found. 1t is absurd
that distillers of either whisky or
brandy should be compelled to protect
themselves by resorting to devices of
this kind, and if the United States gov
ernment wishes to encourage the new
industry that has been established in
California, it will endeavor to adopt
system under which the tax will not be
demanded until the brandy is finally
needed for consumption.
The difficulty referred to by the Vine
Trade Reuie,D will be largely removed by
the passage of the sweet-wine bill now
pending before the senate as clause in
the Mckinley tariff bill.

Points Concerning the Latest Fashion
Fads.
Thin taffeta silk is used for lining nice
dresses.
Silver galloon is much used on gray
bonnets.
Soft caps are worn on sea voyages in
stead OF toques.
Lace, tinsel and silk muslin butter
flies appear everywhere.
White crepe parasols have a vandyke
of gold braid on each gore.
Straw lace is fragile and costly, but
striking on black silk costumes.
Castor shads of gloves are worn with
the fashionable striped cheviot.
Satin-back velvet ribbon is the rage"
for large rosettes called chou.
Wash surahs in gingham effects are
for blouses and children's suits.
A black surah cloak for a girl of 4
years is feather-stitched with yellow.
Frosted" surahs are in fancy plaid,
with sheen-like frosting over them.
Toques of straw braid sewed on a
frame are more stylish than those of
solid straw.
AL Ouu tdIIlIlS, DFOOCn,
or jeweled button is often set in the top
of a smelling-bottle.
Amethyst and pink roses look we'll
when artistically combined, although
parody upon nature.
Crownless hats have the trimmings
arranged to cover the crown sufficiently
to conceal the top of the head.
Tuscan-yellow straw passementerie
bands trim some of The silk and etamine
toilets from Partisan work-rooms.
Navy blue or brown flannel in short
plated skirts and plain blouses are the
thing for camping out in the woods,
One of the prettiest ways of displaying
lace barb is to gather it round the
edge of bouquet-holder and finish it.
Gray or all black silk underwear, with
skirts and corsets of the same, are in
great request this season in making up
travelling outfits.
Pretty pendant watches set in crystal
balls are among the fashionable toys of
today. They hang as an order, secured
by a jeweled brooch on the owners
bodice.
Flowers and flower bordered silks are
in high favor. The designs on these are
chiefly blossoms, leaves and sprays, rose
buds, snowdrops, violets, pansies and
daisies, all in their natural color and
size.
China and Indian silk in white make
beautiful toilets for receptions in sum-
mer. The silks are exquisitely fine and
rich. When ornamented with buds,
sprays or leaves in white silk the effect
is lovely.
Some new fans have their gauze sur
face partly hidden by silken petals, ar
ranged to form gigantic rose, with the
foliage and buds straying up the uncov-
cred space. The rose is any color, and
the fan closes easily.
Pearls are very fashionable, and will
be worn as necklaces mounted on velvet
as dog collars, and also sewed on vel
vet or moire ribbon, and encircling low
bodices, as those seen in the portraits
by Jean Clouet in the fifteenth century.

Arrangements For the Shrin-
ers Picnic.
They Will Take a Short Trip to
Ventura.
Notes and Personals Gathered at
Santa Monica.
Gossip in Railway Circles-Other Events
of More Than Ordinary
Interest.

The Mystic Shrine will take its annual
outing this year in the shape OF a three
days trip to Ventura. The original
plan was to go to Santa Barbara, and 7.
III. Ward, who is potentate of the shrine,
short time ago made trip to the chan
way of making arrangements. 1t was
found that while many of the people of
Santa Barbara were Hospitality inclined,
some of those who would be called upon
to act in the matter were slow in offer
ing entertainment. There was no offense
of any kind taken by either of the par
ties to the affair, but it is noticeable
that the shriners laugh in a peculiar
fashion whenever Santa Barbara is re-
ferred to.
The excursion to Ventura will take
place on the Goth. The following letter
was recently received from Ventura
Masons by Potentate Ward concerning
the visit:
VENTURA, CAL, June ~, 1890.
T. FL. Ward, Esq, Los angeles, Cal.:
DEAR SIR-The Masonic fraternity of
this county, in mass meeting assembled,
at Masonic hall, the 10th inst, was ex-
tremely enthusiastic in regard to the
coming visit of the "Mystic Shrine"
On behalf of the fraternity the under
signed were appointed a committee to
extend to you and all the "Shriners,"
Templars and their ladies of Southern
California hearty welcome, and to say
that the fraternity of this county will do
all that is within their power to make
your visit pleasant and agreeable. Very
truly yours, E. p. FOSTER,
N. BLACKsToCK,
G. j. MCDIvITT.
Last year the Mobiles of the Mystic
Shrine went to Coronado in train of
eight or ten cars. The order is COM
posed of Masons who have taken thirty
two degrees. 1t is for the most part
composed of men well advanced in
years, who, through their continuous
work together in Masonry, are on init
mate terms. In these excursions the
ladies accompany the mobiles, and invi-
tations are extended to a small num-
ber of outsiders. The tendency in the
order is to make more and more of the
annual junket. For example, Mecca
Temple, of the city of New York, which
was the first temple established in the
United States, will make pilgrimage
clear to this coast next August. They
expect to visit Los Angeles, which is the
only city in Southern California where a
temple exists, and they will be enter
tained by the mobiles of this city.

NEWS OF THE RAIL.
Time Changes on the Southern Pacific.
Beach Travel Yesterday.

Among other time changes inaugu-
rated by the Southern Pacific yesterday,
number 10, from San Francisco, is made
to arrive in Los Angeles at 2 :55, instead
OF 10. As it leaves for the east at its
former time of 5 10, passengers are given
two hours and fifteen minutes instead of
an hour to stop over in the city.
Two Sunset specials departed for the
east yesterday on the Southern Pacific.
The travel to the beach yesterday was
light. An excursion was run on the
Southern California from San Jacinto to
Oceanside, and many of the passengers
went down to Carlsbad to look at the

CALIFORNIA BRANDY.
Comments of an English Journal on the
Local Product.


The Vine Trade ReUie,O of England
calls attention to the fact that the grape
brandy product of California is begin
ming to assume Importance in the mar
kets of the world. 1t says:
In California, it appears, the over
production OF wine suggested the desira-
bility of commencing the distillation of
brandy, and the work has been under
taken with true American earnestness
and energy. Last year 100000 gallons
of grape brandy were manufactured in
the state, and not less than 1000 900
gallons will be distilled this season. An
American journal declares that the in
dustry is destined to assume vast proper
tions in the near future. and that the
whole vlticultural interest of the state is
apparently on the eve of an important
revolution. Indeed, our CONTEMPORARY
asserts that there is no valid reason
why the brandy trade of the Pacific
coast should not rival in importance that
of the famed Cognac district of France. )"
We believe very good brandy is made in
California, but. like the Spanish, it
suffers from the defect of want of age
defect, OF course, which every month
will help to overcome. The United
States internal revenue tax on spirits is
levied in an unusual manner, and, in
order to escape it's unfair incidence, the
whisky distillers often send out their pro-
ducts to Bermuda or Europe just before
the tax falls due and sell them after
wards, or reimport them. 1t is pro-
posed to follow somewhat similar plan
in regard to brandy. The scheme is to
build large warehouse at Honolulu, and
shortly before the three years have ex-
pired when the ninety cents per gallon
internal revenue must be paid, to ship
the brandy to Honolulu under bond and
let it remain there until it is wanted for
1 the market. By this means, it is said
small brandy-makers could establish CO,
operative distilleries and could shir
