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

The Pacific Improvement Company mas re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres 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 ST. TO $40 per acre, III 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 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
teTest at the rate of per cent. per annuIn.
making payments extending over a period of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured thai this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality at SO per acre,
and good agricultural land ut $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 fruitgrowing, cannot be
had in California for 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 SIC 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.

FIJI Power.
"Psychognosis" is the title which NJ.
Guibal has adopted for a new and certainly
very remarkable development of what is
familiar to us under the name of thought
reading process, says the London Daily
News. The method adopted by M. Guibal
may be, briefly described, stating, by way
of introduction, that on Saturday afternoon
he submitted it to the s~everest and closest
test to which it could be subjected at the
hands of an audience composed mainly of
pressmen and members of the medical pro-
~fession, among whom was DIR. Bond, of
Westminster hospital.

young lady of prepossessing appearance,
clad in flowing white robes. After mesmer-
izing his subject, M. Guibal collected from
his audience a dozen or so pieces of pauer.
on which they had written their several re-
quests. Then the seance began. M, chi
bal never uttered a word. At a motion of
his hand Miss Grsville, whose ewes were
undoubtedly closed, rose from her seat
descended the steps from the stage to the
audience, and unhesitatingly made her
way to a gentleman in the front
row of the stalls, and. taking 4,
piece of paper and pencil from bis
hands, wrote the figures Go. She newt

his pulse. From another she took nm nm

with it. She next tool a pocketbook and
selected a particular article, and from n
card case belonging to another gentleman
she extracted three cards and gave them IN

submitted a difficult task, which was
to take his watch off the chain and place II
