Beauty and Purity
Go hand in hand.
They are the founda-
ton Of health and
happiness.
Health, because OF
r-trr- Mood

Happiness, because Of clear skin.
Thousands OF useful lives have been
embittered by distressing humors.
CUTICURA RESOIyENT
Is the greatest OF skin purifiers
As well as blood purifiers.
Because OF its peculiar action on
the pores,
It is successful in preventing
And curing all forms OF
Skin, Scalp, and Blood humors,
When the best physicians fail.
Entirely vegetable, safe, and pala-
table.
1t especially appeals to mothers and
children,
Because it acts SO gently, yet eNec-
lively
Upon the skin and blood, as well
as the
Liver, kidneys, and bowels.
It's use at all times
Insures a clear skin and pure blood,
As well as sound bodily health.

The Discussion as TO No Starch EdibIes
Alarming Them.
W. S. Manning, the advocate of ''no
starch" got an encouraging reception at
each ofthe Monday meetings of the min
listers. He simply amazed most of his
audience by his edenic ideals. DR..
Campbell is, it lie understood, trying to
arrange for specimen fruit banquet at
the First M. E. church, If the meeting
this evening at Illinois hall turns out a
success.
AS the future food of mankind will, to
large extent, be safe index as to the
value of land in this state, those inter
ested in real estate will doubtless watch
the trend OF the arguments pro and con
OF the etarchless system with considera-
BILE interest.
II the land in this semitropical cline
80 we'll suited for more profitable crops
than cereals were all likely to be devoted
to nuts and fruit not only would it's
value materially increase all round. but
the overstocked labor market would soon
be revolutionized, and Mr.. Manning
holds that people would have to seek for
large increase, especially of skilled
horticultural help, to keep up with the
demand. He hopes, therefore, that all
who can will give fair hearing at s
O'Clock sharp tonight, when this ques-
ton of W hat shall we eat will be fairly
threshed out.
1t is stated that question box will
be handed around at the close OF the
meeting, so that all seekers for truth
shall have chance to get satisfied on
this important topic.

POLICE COURT CASES.

Chicken Thieves Held to Answer-Minor
Gases.
William Haney and William Smith,
the chicken thieves arrested by Detec-
tives Benson and Marsh, had prelimi-
nary examination in Judge Austin q

bail fixed at $500 each. Haney and
Smith are the boys who for months

ducks, turkeys and geese. 1t is esti-
mated that they stole over 100 dozen
fowls.

THEY GOT LOWER BERTHs

But They Had to Hire Pullman Car for
Two.
There is a decision aud energy about
Englishmen sometimes which arouses
admiration. A case in point occurred
on Monday. Two men whose clothes,
pipes, monocles and accent forcibly an
nounced their nationality called at the
ticket Office of the Southern Pacific rail-
read and asked Charley White for
two lower berths on the train to San
Francisco.
''They are all gone. You can have
uppers, though" was the response.
"Oh, no; doncher know me friend is
beastly ill, and ne cahn't 90 unless he
has lower berth. He must have one,
doncher know"
Mr.. White was sorry, but as he only
had upper berths, be could do nothing.
Then the Spokesman insisted on seeing
Mr.. Crawley, and that official again ex-
planned the absence of any lower berth,
only to receive the uncompromising
reply: saw, yes; but we must have q
lower, donchsr know
With an idea of putting the burden OF
the conversation on some one else, Mr..
Crawley sent them to the Arcade depot
to see Ticket Agent Scott.

STEPHEN NJ. GAGE DENIES THE
INSTRUMENTATION STORY.
He is Indignant That Such an Absurd
Fake Should be Circulated, and
Completely Refutes
the Story.

Stephen NJ. Gage, who represents
the Stanford interests in the Southern
Pacific company. arrived in the city
yesterday from San Diego. He was met
at the depot by a HERALD reporter and
asked concerning the story telegraphed
from Indianapolis to the effect that Mrs.
Stanford and ex-President Harrison were
to be married.
The veteran lawyer, rsilroader and
lobbyist was courteous, but his mobile
lace darkened as the matter was men
toned. THAT is the stuff that some
newspapers nowadays call enterprise"
he said, circulating - lies about la
dies. l am not Mrs. Stanford guar dian,
and any opinion l may offer ia only my
Individual idea, bat tell you that Mrs.
Stanford would rather be the widow of
the governor than the wife of any man,
prince, potentate or president.
I'm word, the story s such gross
absurdity that | wonder at any news
paper giving it circulation. The same
canard went the rounds of the press
some time ago, but Mrs. Stanford never
considered it worthy of mention, and
most certainly, did not.
1.-The governor, fully year before his
death, entered into an engagement with
ex-President Harrison to deliver some
lectures on law at the university. The
ex-president is, l believe, now on his
way to this coast to fill that engage
ment. That is the only relation that
there is between the ex-president and
the lady in question.
SIN TACT the story about the alleged
engagement is not worthy OF denial.''
