Because this is the camping sea
son, and so many of our friends have
pitched their tents away from civil
ization, and are spending their days
in fishing, rowing and kindred sports,
| was quite impressed by set of
rules for the benefit of campers of
which l had glimpse the other day.
Having been written by a man, of
course they we're entirely for the bene
fit of women, and treated chiefly of
the things that should not be done
First, it said that a camping girl
should possess soul above snakes,
spiders and unnamed, crawling things
That when she was being rowed ''over
the ripping water" by some mascu.
line angel, she should manage to re-
press her exuberant spirits sufficient
ly TO keep the boat trimmed That
even though her hands were small
and white, and adorned with pretty
rings, the hardhearted rover objec-
ted to her trailing them in the water.
That the thing of all others that
most moved his soul to wrath, was
when in stiff breeze, she calmly
raised her umbrella and presented an
effectual opposition to his efforts.
These things, aud many others,
this man endeavored TO impress upon
the feminine camper, and ended the
effort by calmly stating that in no
other place so well as about the camp
fire was the real nature apparent.
That a selfish woman could not al
ways disguise it there, and that en-
ergy and suitability we're made more
apparent. All of which is doubtless
so, but the truth is only half told
when confined to the feminine por-
ton
A mans geniality, or lack Of it,
his gentleness or rudeness, his help
fnlness or Indifference are equally
laid bare in such untrammeled asso-
citation. BARBARIAN.

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $40 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres Of
land in the heart of Tehama County, for the
purpose Of promoting subdivision and settle
nent. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
land of fair average quality, and is offered at
from 81 To $40 per acre, in subdivisions Of
40, so, 12o, 100 and $50 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They will be sold in
subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay
ment of interest only for three years, at which
time the purchaser can begin tie payment of
principal by paying the first OF five equal an
nual tustallments. Thus no part OF the prin-
cipal is to be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is TO have five years in which to
pay five equal annual installments, with in-
terest at the rate of 2 per cent. per annuIn,
making payments extending over period Of
eight years Intending purchasers are es-
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality ut $40 per acre,
and good agricultural land at $40 an acre,
with other grades Of land at prices to CORE
spond between these figures
The assertion is frequently made thet good
lands, suitable for general farming, and es-
pecially adapted for fruit growing cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
800 an acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement win prove TO
home-seezers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase OF good agricultural land at $40
an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at SO an acre. on terms of
payment which should make the disposition
Of these lands to actual settlers result easy of
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase Of this
body of land was the breaking up of q large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
