blocks and waterwor<s with pipes laid in the streets,
besides extensive warehouses and numerous residences
The town has postoiIice schao-house and weekly
paper, and the fine railroad depot contains telegraph
and express Offices.
Postofces have also been established at Guindaand
Rumscy Tlislatter place, situated at the head of he
valley, is the present terminus of the railroad. The
comfortable little hotel makes excellent quarters for
hunters as well as land-seekers.
The advantages enjoyed by the settler in Capay Val
ley may be thus Concsely summed up:
soil Of great fertility yielding bountully of every
crop.
soil and climate which will ripen all kinds of fruit
vegetables earlier than anywhere else in the State.
i "A climate perfectly adapted to the curngo raisins and
drying of fruit without the aid of artificial evaporaors

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agrieuitural%Landf for $40
to $40 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has r9s
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres OF
land IN the heart of Tehama County, for the
purpose Of promoting subdivision and settle
nnent. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
land of fair average quality, and Isl sofered at
nom $40 to $50 per acre, in subdivisions OF
40, 80, 40, 16o and $40 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 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 I've equal annual insta1lments, with in
terest at the rate of per cent. per annuTn,
making payments extending over a period of
eight years Intending purchasers are Gs-
st1red that this is an opportunity to purchase
land OF fair average quality at SO per acre,
snd good agricultural land at SEQ 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
S10o an acre. An examination of the land
subject OF this advertisement viii prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $40
an ecre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at $40 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 :and was the breaking up OF q large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlementin smaller quantities and its devotion
10 diligent husbandry.

HOW a German Learned the InC"1ca-
cies OF the English Language.
When the United States ship Ports
mouth reached Hampton Roads recently,
fresh from the West lndies, she found in
that port the German man-of-war Nike,
and in the course OF q few days a warm
friendship was established between the
young officers Of the two ships. FIRE.
quent visits were III order. Among the
German officers there WAS one young
man who thought, who knew, that he had
mastered the whole English language in
his short month in American waters. He
was so sure OF this that he FASTENED to eN-
hibit his Iuency whenever any OF the
American officers were about. This led
to u trap which awolle the German some
what rudely 10 a realization Of his error,
says the New York Times. He was on
board the Portsmouth, conversing with a
knot OF officers, when shower came up.
This is quite malignant Storm he
said positively.
YES" replied Ensign c., who stood
near by, ''but it's only half as bad as it
would be ii it were twice as bad as it is"
a remark which caused the German to
stare blankly at thespealler. He ecouldn't
grasp it.
"Hey?'' he finally said with a dazed
air.
ooh! 1 merely remarked" said c.,
THAT 1t might have been if it was, and it
would have been if it could, but as it
hadn't, it didn't-see?'
But the German didn't see. lie edged
his way slowly toward the gangway as
though bereft Of his senses. His eyes
were CLASSY, his face was pallid and care
worn. They never saw him again.

Wasp Stings.

It is fact not generally known that if
one holds his breath, wasps, bees and
hornets can be handled with impunity
The skin becomes sting-proof and hold
ing the insect by the feet, and giving her
fun liberty of action, you can see her
drive her weapon against the impenetra-
BILE surface with force that lifts her body
at every stroke; but let the smallest
quantity of air escape from the lungs
and the sting viii penetrate at once. /
have never seen an exception TO this in
twenty-five years observation. l have
taught young ladies with very delicate
hands to astonish their friends by the
the performance Of this feat; and | saw
one so severely stung as to require the
services of q physician, through laughing
AT n witty remark of her sister, forgetting
that laughing required breath. For q
theory in explanation l am led to believe
that holding the breath partially closes
the pores of the skin. My experiments
in chat direction have not been exact
enough TO be of any scientific value, but
l am satisfied that it very sensibly affects
the amount of insensible perspiration.-
