AFTER THE GRIPPE.
The Grip Rsspoasibis ssT More Deaths
After Recovery Than During Its
Course-How to Avoid the Danger.

Grippe, in itself, Is bad enough, debilita-
ting epough, but it is the after effects, the
Showcases Of recovery that give It its great
danger. In most cases. the person did not
have sufficient vitality TO ra ly after the dis
ease itself had passed. The forces Of nature
were too weak to contend with the debility
which the Grippe had left.
It is said to think how many people have
died who might have sbeen saved Il nature
had been properly assisted and fortified after
the Grippe had been ldriven from the hystem.
Many physicians realised this fact, and as
sisted their patients over the dangerous after
effects by bracing up and stimulating their
systems. This was. and can be done In but
one way, and that's by the steady and moder-
ate use of some pure yet powerful stimu-
liant There is but one absolutely pure
and medicinal stimuant known to
the profession and 70 the public, and that
is Duffy's Pure Mad WI iskey. The most

ELECTRIC LIGHTING.
The Edison Light and Power Company's
Extensive Plant.

The Edison Light and Power Company's
Extensive Plant.
The California Electric Light Company
can produce one Of the most remarkable
records Of industrial development, probably,
IN the history Of San Francisco. Few real
'iZe the immense amount Of work that has
been done by it during the short space Of
time occupied in its development.
The California Electric Light Company
was incorporated June 30 1879 In Septem-
Ter, 1879 it commenced furnishing lights
from a central station located where the
Flood Building now stands. This was the
first central electTic-lIghting station built in
lie United States. Electric lights were
used before. but always where power was
within the building in which they were used.
April, 1850, the station was destroyed by
FIRE. Within A month after a new station
was erected Oh OFarrell street. between
stockton ana Powell. After three wears
that became to small. The company moved
10 its present quarters on Jessie street be-
tween Third and Fourth. which in turn be-
came too small, and now the company has
one Of the largest and best equipped electric
lighting stations in the United States on
Townsend street, between Second ard Third
streets.
Being advised by the attorneys that the
Edison company had the foundation patents
and that sooner or later Mr.. Edison's patent
on the incandescent lamp must be sus-
tanned. an arrangement was made whereby
the Edison patents were scared for San
Francisco. a new company was incorpor-
aied July 3, 1891, called the Edison Light
abd Power Company. II has purchased the
plant. franchises, etc, of the California
Electric Light Company. 1t also purchased
the rights to the Edison patents, so that
the company that IS now operating the
electric lights In San Francisco is called the
Edison Light and Power Company. Within
a year plant according to the Edison sys-
TEN and under the Edison patents will be
installed. The conduits will be laid under
