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

hePacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres cs
land in the heart of Teha1na 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 $40 to SEQ per acre, in subdivisions of
40 so, 120, 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
noent 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 Snstallments. 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 tho rate OF per cent. per annurn,
making payments extending overa period of
eight years Intending purchasers are as-
sureu that this is an opportunity to purchase
land Of fair average quality at $40 per acre,
and good agricultural land at $40 an acre,
with other grades OF land at prices to CORE
spone between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made tfat good
lands, suitable for general farming. and es-
pccially 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 viii prove TO
hone-seekers 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 al $40 an acre, on terms OF
payment which should make the disposition
cS these lands to actual settlers result easy of
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchaCe Of this
body of land was the breaking up Of large
holding 10" the purpose of promoting its set
tenent III smaller quantities and its devotion

Trade is dull in Wall street, but

ishing the predicted panic can
readily be kept at bay.
The Iowa Republicans are now
adding 5000 to the general estimate
of their majority, because of the
recent speeches of Mr.. Mills in that
State.
The Republicans have concluded
not to make any fight in Virginia
this year; therefore the rate of NOR
tally among the colored voters will
not be as large as usual.
The late James Russell Lowell
wrote so many wise and good things
that the world can we'll afford to
forget that he once spoke of Grover
Cleveland as "the greatest living
American.
The unanimity and cheerfulness
with which the people repudiated
the so-called Peoples party shows
that common sense is more widely
diffused than many persons have
imagined.
There is no risk in predicting
that Campbell will be the Democ-
ratio candidate for President next
year if he carries Ohio this year
because the latter event is not at all
likely to happen.
The best time to sell wheat is
when fair price is being offered
for it; and the farmer who neglects
to sell under such circumstances is
far more apt to lose than to gain by
the delay.
The Georgia Alliance will have
less time to denounce the financial
policy of the Republican party
while it is engaged in the work
Of trying to recover the $4,000
stolen from it by one of its officials.
The fact should be kept in mind
that it is not this year, but next
year, that Mr.. Blaine's friends pro-
pose to run him for the Presidency
and he can do great deal of get

The New York Country Demo

If any of the holders of the ~

them continued at ? per cent, then
all they need to do is to present

Mckinley will wait until 1896 to

Comfort for Homslx s,rl..

How did that homely woman contrive
to get married?" is not infrequ ,ntly re-
marked of some &, I'D domestic creature
whom her husband regards as the apple
of his eye, and in whose plain face he
sees something bett I than beauty.
Pretty girls who are vain of their
charms are rather prone to make obser-
vations of this kind and consciou ness
of the fact that flowers of loveliness are
often left to pine on the stem, while
weeds of, homeliness go off readily, is,
no doubt, in many cases at the bottom
of the sneering question.
The truth is that most men prefer
homeliness and amiability to b 'auty
and caprice, explains writer in the
New York Ledger Handsome women
are sometimes very hard to please
They are apt to overvalue themselves,
and, in waiting for an immense bid,
are occasio' lily "left on the market.
The plain sisters, on the contrary, aware
of their personal DEFICIENCIES, generally
lay themselves out to produce an agree
able impression. and in most instances
succeed. They don't aspire to capture
paragons with princely fortunes. but
are willing to take anything respectable
and Noteworthy that Providence may
throw in their way.
The rock ahead of your naughty Junos
and coquettish Hebes is fastidiousness
They reject and reject until nobody
cares to WOO them. Men don't like to
be snubbed nor to be tr.fied with-a les
son that thousands of pretty women
learn too late. Mrs Hannah More, a
very excellent and pious person. who
knew whereof she wrote, recommends
every unmarried sister to accept the
first good, sensible Christian lover who
falls in her way. But ladies whose mir
rors. aided by the glamour of vanity,
assure them they were born for con-
quest. pay no heed to this sort of advice
1t is noteworthy fact that homely
girls generally get better husbands than
fall TO the lot Of their fairer sisters.
Men who are caught merely by q pretty
face and figure do not. as rule, amount
to much. The practical. useful, thought
full portion Of mankind is wisely con-
tent with unpretending excellence.
