| TAKE COURA CIT is certainly very
unpleasant to those of us who paid
high prices for our land, and especi-
ally to such as ran in debt for and
now owe a large part of the price.
! But unless this decline in selling value
| is due to a current decline of produc-
| tiveness, those who are out of debt
have only to lament that they can
not now get the money back, if they
want to sell 1t seems that farmers
are getting to be like speculators in
one respect-the disposition to sell on
a falling market and hold on a rising
one This is natural, but such panics
are not wise. five can get as good
an income from our farms as before,
a temporary decline in price should
not stampede us; and many who now
are anxious to sell while land is low
may in the not distant future be glad
that they were unable to do SO. Take
courage. The world must be fed, and
mouths are rapidly increasingin part
of it, while the land cannot increase.
Reason should encourage us, and all
experience teaches us that the present
depression in farm property cannot
last Keep a stiff upper lip, econo-
mize, improve, stop all the wastes.
Better times are coming. In the
meantime see that your farms are
listed way down where they belong in
selling value, and see, too, that city
and village property. and all corpor-
ate property, loans, etc, are hunted
out and made to bear their true pro-
portion of the public burdens. Let
us have a regular house-cleaning, and
leveling up, as well as down, all
around. Then we will start fair, and
it will be strange if the farmer cannot
thrive yet.-Dr HOSkinS in MontpeE

Electricity and Irrigation.

1t is proposed to apply electricity to
the irrigation of some of the dry and
sterile districts of California. Vast areas,
now barren and worthless, can thus be
made fertile and enormously enhanced
in value. Land worth from So to $40
per acre, without opportunity of rea-
sonable hope of irrigation, would com
mand $50 to 5000 per acre when water
is brought to them. The yields would
be far greater, the crops of finer quality
and entirely Independent of drought,
certain and sure, regardless of seasons,
and afiortling perfectly reliable source
of income. The plan suggested is to
transmit the current to motors, and
thereby work pumps which will raise
water into suitable reservoirs. New

Remedy for Sour Stomach.

The domestic remedy for 'sour stom-
ach' is soda or saleratus. These agents
are considered harmless, and often
times quite large doses are taken. The
habit of taking them or other alkalies
after eating is a questionable one. The
digestive ingredient of the gastric juice
is active only in the presence of an acid.
If alkalies are taken into the stomach
in considerable quantities the acid fluids
therein are neutralized and the natural
consequence is digestion stops for a
time. Experiments made by Dr. Bour-
get, of France, have demonstrated this
fact. They have also shown that the
use of pepsin, the once popular remedy
for digestive disturbances, is of little
value Instead of using soda or other
alkalies in sour stomach, it is best to
drink hot water, or to take five or ten
drops of diluted hydrochloric acid in a
wine glass of water Both of these
stimulate the mucous membrane of the
stomach and prevent the formation of
troublesome acids.-Philadelph Rec

EDITOR NEWS AND CITIZEN 1t is
possible that some of your Vermont
readers may still have enough Curl
osity about the wild and woody west
to peruse letter from our new and
growing town, which started in the
wilderness from nothing on the 18th
of January last, and now has a pop
ulatiOn of 1000, with expectations of
becoming the New York of the Pacific
coast. | have been here three months
and have consequently seen most of
the progress made. Hundreds of
acres of heavy fir timber have been
removed and miles Of streets graded.
We have eight or ten hotels, twice as
many saloons, and real estate Offices
galore. Expect the Union Pacific
and Northern Pacific railways to
make terminus here Any one who
has a large map of the Puget Sound
country will find this town at the
North enc Of Fridays Island, East of
Victoria, Northeast of Port Town
send. 1t is really a delightful place
for town. Without regard to the
great expectations it is a pleasant
abiding place at least for the summer
months. We have daily communica-
tion with Seattle via Puget Sound
steamers, and shall have access by
rail during the season, as a road is
already completed for several miles.
The whole Puget Sound country is
having a boom this year, something
marvellous; towns are springing up
everywhere; fortunes are made in
land. | can advise a poor man who
has not much to lose. and has health
and a disposition to work and a will

that when he proves up on his claim,
he will be worth some money, more
than he could probably save at any
trade.

Fifty years ago a young country
man from Vermont went to Boston
to try his fortune. He hit upon the
idea of establishing a parcel carrying
business between Boston and New
York, he being responsible for the
safety of the parcels. His patronage
was not large. At first he carried all
the parcels he had between the two
cities in his carpet bag, and there was
not more than money enough to pay
his travelling expenses, hardly that
sometimes. The young countryman's
name was Alvin Adams, and this May
the Adams Express company cele-
brated it's fiftieth anniversary. 1t
has a capital of $12,OOO,OOO, carries
parcels to every state and territory
in the Union, and keeps 200O wag-
ons. 5000 horses and 10000 men
busy the year round. Is not this u
good story?

Right is right, and wrongis wrong.
Popular opinion cannot make the
right wrong, or the wrong right.
Yet many a man or boy, on coming
into new community finds that
popular opinion just there approves
that which he knows ought not to
have tolerance. Then comes the
question whether he is to accept pop
ular opinion as his guide, or is to
conform his course to standard
that he knows to be correct. On his
answer to that question there may
pivot his character and his destiny.

Parisians were lately treated to rare
effect of mirage The Eiffel tower was
seen surmounted by an inverted image
of itself, vertical in the heavens and look
ing like a duplicate continuation of the
real structure. The base of the image
lost itself in the upper mist, while behind
the tower was low cloud which cleaned
like silver. The sun was shining across
the haze to the left of the tower and con-
tributed an additional effect of light and
shadow.-New York Times.

As DR.. Irwin leaned over his old
friend he smiled a little, but his eyes
glistened strangely. Had the circum-
stances been otherwise it may be he
would have been tempted to discuss
the matter with Dorsey and to attempt
to convince him that he had been mis-
led by a simple hallucination. AS it was,
he tried only to make him comfortable
for the little time remaining to him.
