ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $50 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand acres of
land in the heart of Tehama County for the
purpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
land of fair average quality, and is offered at
from SO to $50 per acre, in subdivisions of
40, 80, 100, 16O 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 the payment of
principal by paying the first of five equal an
nual installments. 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 per cent. per annum,
making payments extending over period of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality at SO per acre.
and good agricultural land at $50 an acre
with other grades of land at prices to CORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming, and es-
pecially adapted for fruit-growing, cannot be
had in California Tor less than from $50 to
500 an acre. An examination OF the land
subject of this advertisement will prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $50
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 large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

, Who rules in this town ?

Depends on the question up.
The lamp-chimney ques-
tlon-what sort do you break i?
Whatever sort your dealer
deals in.
How, do you think, he
selects his chimneys?
He buys those that cost him
least; he can get the regular
price for them; and the faster
they break the more he sells.
That's how he reasons.
Tell him you want Mac
beth's "pearl top" or "pearl
glass, " tough glass, transpar-
ent, clear, not foggy, fine, of
right shape and uniform. Tell
him you'll pay him a nickel
more a piece, and that will
cover his extra costs twice
over. Tell him you don't pro-
pose to break any more. Try
your hand at ruling.

Pilferfng From Confeetionors. New York Letter to. the St. Louis Globe

A prominent confectioner says: '"The big confectioners all along Broadway lose hundreds of dollars every season by the candy sneak thieves.' That is the term we all use when speaking of the class of people who come in the shop, buy ten cents worth of dainties of some descrip- tion and filch quarters worth of candy off the counters Why don't we put wire screens over the eandys For this reason: The majority of our customers are wealthy people who spend large sums of money for bonbons, candied flowers and conserves. We are pleased to have these people help themselves to whatever is on the counter. They are regular customers, and we can afford to have them do so. If we had the wire screens they would think we were mean and stingy. No, there is no help for it. have instructed my clerks to look displeased and all that sort of thing, but it won't work. There is one lady who comes in here regularly once week. She invariably takes twenty five cents' worth of candies. calculate to lose that small amount every week, for l assure you she eats fully that much worth of imported candies every time she comes in. One ot my clerks spoke to her one day about 1t and told her she must not do it. She took some more candy and told the clerk not to joke. Talk about cheek! That woman has enough for three people. There is no way of getting rid of the candy sneak thieves that can see."
