To This

That every successful, meritor-

This is grave injustice, for
the genuine pure article will
often be judged by the imita-

for their manufacture more
care and skill, more costly
and purer materials, than
Flavoring Extracts.
In this instance cheap mater
ials mean inferior favors.

Keep Down the Dust.

There is something new in town. A
preparation like Oil which is laid on wood
or linoleum floors, and prevents parti-
Gle OF dust from rising when the floor is
swept. In Stock ton, where it has been
tried, it has given general satisfaction. The
business office of the RECORD UNION was
treated with it last week, and so far it has
proved to be all that is claimed for it. In
dry goods stores it will be necessity
presently. 1t is cheap, and the floors can
be used Immediately after the prepare
ton Is put on. Here is what one OF the

SACRED DEER IN JAPAN.
Tame Creatures to BE Found in a Queer
Mountain Town.

Humphrey B. kendrick, former
has Just returned to San Francisco
from a residence of several years
in Japan. gives the Examiner an in
teresting description of Il little noun
tain town nancd Nara, in that coun-
try.
every one in Nara has deer" said
Mr. Kendrick, "and they are as rlen-
tiful there as dogs in an American
town, while around the temples are
great numbers. all sacred to the Jap
anese. And they are very tame, COM
inc up even to the stranger, and al
most begging for gingerbread. Of which
they are very fond, and which the
tourists are expected to buy for them.
"When the emperor. great many
years ago, came into Nara. and Nara
YOU know, was the first capital OF
japan. he rode on a white deer, and
that at once made the deer sacred, and
at the same time it became fashion
able to own one. and now thew are the
most common thing TO be seen in the
place, unless it be lanterns which are
actually without number and of every
kind and quality. a lantern in Japan
is very different from one here, for
there they are stone pillars, although
there are some of metal, and made to
be suspended. | saw some of bronze
in one of the temples, which had been
brought from Holland long ago. But,
while there are SO many, the japanese
will never count them.
THAT would be a very wicked thiny z
in the sight of the gods, who keep the
mum Der a careful secret. And though
sacrilegious foreigners have made the
attempt no two of them have ever
counted the same. Another feature is
the goldfish ponds-no such fish as
you see here, but y to IA inches long
and of such 4 deep color, darker than
orange even. And those with the fan
tails are beautiful. All of the ponds
and lakes are full of them, and as the
water is very clear it is marvellous
thing to stand on the shore and watch
them dart through the ripples, and
when out in boat the very bottom
assumes golden hue"
