OF the numerous contest cases that
have been appealed from the decision
of the register and receiver of the
land office here, to the commissioner
of the general land office during the
past four years, the local Office has
in every instance been sustained with
one exception. The exception was
the case of E. 7. Lee VS.. Benjamin
NJ. Curtis involving the ST se4 and
81 sw4 14-22-47. The local des
cision was in favor of contestar :.
The case was appealed, and the com
missioner reversed the decision and
dismissed the contest. Mr.. Lee,
through his attorney d. E. Cooper,
Esq, appealed the case to the secre-
tary of the interior, and last week a
decision was rendered reversing the
commissioner, sustaining the local
office and ordering the cancellation
of the entry; thus giving the land to
Mr.. Lee. This gives the local Office
an unbroken record.

Orange Growing In Palestine.

1t is only of recent years that Jaffa or
anges have obtained worldwide reputa-
ton, for but some Is years since they were
scarcely known save at Beyroot, Alexan-
dria and Constantinople A special fea-
ture of the Jaffa orange is that it will keep
30 or 40 days, and if properly packed for
two and sometimes even three months.
The port of Jaffa is surrounded on the
land side by orange groves, covering an
area of 1,7S0 acres. New orange groves
are constantly being planted, and there
are now double as many as there were Is
years ago. Each orange garden contains
about 1900 square feet of planted area,
equal to about 1900 trees to 213 acres
The trees begin to bear the fourth year
after planting, but it is estimated that it
takes seven and sometimes eight years be
fore an orange orchard yields paying
crop. During all this time and even aft
erward the orchards have to be watered
continually, and this irrigation is the most
difficult and laborious part of the work,
the water having to be drawn by means of
primitive waterwheels from wells dug in
the gardens 10 feet and even 100 feet deep.

AN IMPERATIVE DUTY.

What greater duty is possible than the
care of our health? Until recently it
has been impossible for persons living at
distance from large cities to obtain the
best medical advice without great ex-

poorest persons, in any part of the land,
may consult the great medical authority
on nervous and chronic diseases. free Of
charge, and without leaving their homes.

Marriage In Olden Times.

ONE OF OUR FOREMOST LADIES THINKS
ABOUT 1T.
Henry W. Longfellow has said in one
of his most popular poems that "All
things come around to him who will but
wait"
How true it certainly is that if we have
but the patience to wait and struggle for
that which we so much desire, the prize
will surely be ours. 1t is not enough,
however, to sit quietly down and remain
inert, but if we would accomplish great
results we must possess untirng persev-
erance.
At least one person appreciates the full
significance of the great mans words.
Miss S. Cohen of 554 South 9th, ST., Cam
den, n. j., has for months been waiting,
longing and striving to regain that health
without which life is at best but dreary
existence.
She has been constantly treating with
different remedies and physicians but
never once lost courage, for she had
made mp her mind that there was a
remedy which would cure her and was
determined to find it. She succeeded
so well and is SO filled with gratitude
and thankfulness that she wishes the
whole world could know of her wonder

The following is letter written by her
for the public benefit:
