Syrup"

The majority Of we1l-read phys
icians now believe that Consump-
ton is a germ disease. In other
words, instead Of being in the CON
stitution Itself it is caused by innu-
merable small creatures living in the
lungs having no business there and
eating them away as cateTpillars do
the leaves Of trees.
A Germ The phlegm that Is
coughed up is those
Disease parts OF the lungs
which have been
gna8ed off and destroyed. These
little bacilli, as the germs are called,
are too small to be seen with the
naked eye, bat they are very much
alive just the same, and enter thH
body in Our food, In the air we
breathe. and through the pores Of
the skin. Thence they get into the
blood and finally arrive at the lungs
where they fasten and increase with
fightf1i rapidity. Then German
Syrup comes In, 1oosens them, kills
them. expells them, heals the places
they leave, and 50 nourish and
soothe that, in short time consump
hves become germ-proof and well .

A VERY distinguished delegation,
mainly of an official character, will
reach Los Angeles today from Salt Lake.
It will comprise the greater portion OF
the council and corporation of that city.
They will undoubtedly be received with
ssS2at cordiality, and they should be af.
'forded every means ofstudying our muni-
cipalsystem. They are thoroughly well
come to any lessons OF beneficial char
acter they may be able to acquire here.
There ought to be decided feeling OF
comfy between the two cities. Years ago
there was agreat deal Of trading between
our own people andthose OF Utah. In fact
the then Mormon capital got all its sup
plies by mule team from Los Angeles,
the Union and Central Pacific railways
NOT having been built at that time.
That we shall shortly resume these in
innate business relations with our in
,fand neighbor we do not doubt. The
building of railway to complete the
link between Los Angeles and Salt Lake
City is only matter of a very little
time.

LOS ANGELES HERALD. MONDAY MORNING. JANUARY 1888

an sid-de-camp of Won Wrangel's al
the battle OF Waterloo. The latter was
selected to present the New Years ad-
dress to bis majesty when he was eighty
five and the field marshal had turned
his hundredth year. In the course of it
he amused mis- majesty and the specta-
tors by telling the emperor that he was
a mere boy.
What was the secret of the remarka-
bic longevity OF these men? OF course
they were highly endowed with vitality
by nature. But multitudes of men aim
ilarly endowed have burnt out life's
taper before reaching the half century
mark. These illustrious Germans were
sll with the possible exception of Won
Moltke, generous livers. Bismarck,
who is we'll on his way to eighty, was
noted for the unDridled rein he gave to
his appetites. The fact is, that they
were all trained athletes, and kept up
their habits of taking exercise, and
plenty OF it, in the open cir. They rode,
fenced and walked. They insured the
conversion of what they ate and drank
into Wholesome chyme and chyle by
good air and abundant movement. 1t
was useless for an ordinary man to at
tempt to assassinate Bismarck. He Was
on his assailant in an Instant, and
handed him over to the police, as when
the son of Karl Blind tried to kill him
in the streets of Berlin.
In the United States our public men
neglect to take the precautions to insure
their health which those of Europe are
careful to adopt. Then our statesmen
are too intense. They allow themselves
little, if any, recreation. They forget
the saw OF Poor Richard that all work
and no play makes Jack dull boy and
a very sick boy, as well. They pen them
selves up in winter in heated apartments
and breathe a vitiated air that ssps their
vitality. They would do well to initiate
the example of David Dudley Field and
walk where they are wont to ride, and
to realize that good fresh air is the very
principle OF life.
The herald., 1893-01-30

MEMBERS OF the senate and house
committees on foreign, relations are
not backward in expressing themselves
on the question of snnexing Hawaii.
Senators Sherman, Morgan and Butler
are reported to be heartily in favor of it.,
and Judge Chapman of the house for
eign committee is the most outspoken
on the subject of all. The judges re-
marks have ring TO them that is re-
freshing in these degenerate days when
it is the custom of the menagerie of
other nations TO stink out Of sight
whenever the British lion roars.
The herald., 1893-01-30

The lata rainfall does not seem to
have been as generous to our southern
neighbors as to the farmers of Los Ange-
lee. Everything emphasizes the wis
dom, in country like Southern Califor-
mia, of Utilizing every possible facility
for irrigation. There is water enough
running to waste in the Arroyo Honda,
the Los Angeles, the San Gabriel and
Santa Ana rivers, and in the hundred
cafions of the Sierra Madre mountains,
to irrigate every foot of land between
the mountains and the sea, that is to
say, all that needs to be irrigated, for
there are numerous ranchos whose
moist and bottom lands require no arti-
fcial precipitation. Los Angeles has
secured the holding of the National
Irrigating convention in her bounds,
and by the time it assemblies we ought
to be able to afford many new object
lessons to its members. We are not
now using half OF the water which is
available for purposes of irrigation.

resentatives, the voters Were called upon
to elect successors to the trsnsgressors,
the result would be far more satisfac-

by the lsches or downright crime of
Legislators would assert itself, and
would find strong and probably efiea-

OF Americans. they are very apt to do it.
