Four years ago, Mrs. Markham, who
resides on First Street, corner of North
Swan, noticed sensitive spot on her
left limb. twas apparently nothing SER
ious, but soon developed into sore, and
before long the limb was mass Of ulcers.
Mrs. Markham employed some of our
best physicians, but obtained no relief.
In fact was told that nothing could be
done for her, so for four years she suffered
with these dreadful ulcers, which had
eaten their way to the bone.
A little less than a year ago an ac-
quaintance told her about DR.. David
Kennedys Favorite Remedy, and he
believed she would find relief in using it.
Mrs. Markham's four years of suffering
had made her skeptical, the more so, as
she had obtained no relief from any Of the
physicians who had attended her.
The friend offered to send her a bottle
of Dr. Kenuedy's Favourite Remedy if
she would try it. He did so, and there
was such decided Improvement that she
concluded TO give the remedy fair test.
To-day, not quite year after taking the
first dose, the ulcers have disappeared,
all that is left to show what she has suf-
fered. is swelling on the ankle of the
left limb, which is fast disappearing.
Mrs. Markham is naturally strong in
her praises of DR.. David kenuedy's Fa-
vorite Remedy, and feels that but for it
she would now be a helpless cripple if not
corpse.

WHY SOME WOMEN DO NOT MARRY.

One such women was used to at
,ack new science or language every
ear, and, failing from her lack Of
.gacher or companion, would pile
Inc textbooks in heaps until walls OF
Justly volumes shut in every room Of
The house. She fell at last into a
state of semidiocy, and wandered
Ike ghost around the village, jab-
bering scraps of foreign tongues
which she did not understand.
1t is hereditary habit in certain
antilles for the women who have
,ref to shut themselves into a single
room and remain there TOR ten, TWEEN
~, thirty years. Nor are the morbid
'ances of these women always
gloomy and sad. They live some
times in an enchanted land of their
own.
One whom know, a woman of
>cnsuous temperament and motherly
Instincts, refused to marry man
whom she loved because he had gone
20 live in another town, and she
would be forced to- leave the old
house and hall-acre which were the
center of the world to her. The
courtship went on for forty years,
out she was true to the house.
Another drove her lover away on
he day OF the wedding because she
could not bring herself to change the
name Of Wonson for any other. He
was rich and she was poor; he re,
manned faithful and ready as long as
she lived. She died at seventy, a
maiden Wonson still. Could pride Of
blood go further?-[ Rebecca Hard

A Prosperous Future.

Much has been written OF the late past
as 6 period of disaster, but it has laid the
foundation OF good real estate market by
establishing property values at reasona-
bic standard and in provoking energetic
effort on the part of the masses OF the peo-
pie. Even the rich men realize that some
thing must be done TO develop the latent
resources of the country and to advertise
these advantages in the Eastern States.
One evidence of this is the organization Of
colonization propositions. While no one
can review the unparalleled progress of
this City during the last forty years from
an isolated, obscure hamlet amid sand
hills and brush to her present position
among the large cities of the world
without being filed with awe, yet no
thoughtful mind can fail to realize how
much more exalted the attainments OF
San Francisco would have been with COM
peting railroads, such as have developed
Southern California and every other enter

ness and be large real estate owner at
the same time unless ne has unlimited
means. And if he had these means, in
nine cases out Of ten, he would retire
from business. The savings banks are the
repositories for the earnings of the laborer,
the mechanic, the miner, the professional,
the wealthy widow and the retired mer-
chant. All is locked in their embrace to
invest as they think best. If they choose
to boom the States of Washington, Oregon,
Utah or Nevada, or buy block of United
States bonds, they do it. They take large
amount of our earnings to make business
away from home. And yet we complain
that the Chinaman is of DC use to this coun-
try because he sends home for use the
money which he makes here.
To whom does the manufacturer apply
when ne is short Of money? To the mer-
camille bank. And whyp Because the
savings banks, unless he has real estate,
cannot loan to him. No manufacturing

Country Realty Prosperous.

The year just closing has been fairly
prosperous one in country realty, and the
outlook for the future is full of hope and
most promising. 1t is a well-known fact
that if our farming industries do not pros
per it affects the whole well-being of our
State. There are several reasons why the
future is full of promise, among them
being the revival and prosperous condition
OF the mining interests in this State. The
bright outlook of our wine industry, the
encouraging returns that our orchardists
and vineyardists have received this year,
have put new life into those industries
The building of the San Joaquin Valley
Railroad will necessarily entail a
large expenditure OF money, as also
will the projected new lines of
railroad in Mendocino and Humbol
counties and the completion of the coast
line railroad to Santa Barbara. The en-
couraging work of our Half-million Club
toward building up the State gives prom
Use that at last our citizens have awakened
to the importance of energetic effort and
cooperation. 1t is a we'll known fact that
the southern part OF the State is prosper
ing owing to organization and co-opere-
ton and the energy of its citizens in adj
vertising its resources and advantages.
The old-time enterprise that was once
manifest in our City seemed to have de-
parted and our City was fast degenerating
into large retail shopping place, but
thanks to the keen business sagacity and
example of our ''new Moses" Claus
Spreckels Esq, our citizens have at last
awakened to the necessity Of "getting a
move o." To him more than to all
others do our citizens owe the present
hopeful outlook for the future.
Honor to those whose words and deeds

Learned to Pull Together.

My belief in the future greatness of this
City and State not only remains I'M
shaken, but has considerably increased
during the past year. The building
of the San Joaquin Valley Railroad may
be taken as bright example Of the re-
newed activity, and it is made apparent
thereby that all classes are united in de-
veloping the State. In this City many of
the rich men have not heretofore lent
helping hand and have withheld the
necessary funds from municipal and State
improvements. People who acquired
property and grew rich by the growth Of
the town were willing to let others bear
the burden Of progressive action. This is
in great measure changed, and for self.
protection they have been forced to take
some interest in City affairs.
This has caused our progress in the
past to be somewhat slow in comparison
with other cities-Chicago. for instance.
Had our people possessed the go-ahead
and liberal spirit of the jewellers in the
Windy City San Francisco would have to-
day ranked third or fourth among the
cities of the Union; but it must be remem-
bered that our progress, if slow, has been
practically free from debt. This is more
than can, believe, be said of any other
city OF importance in this country, most
large municipalities being weighed down
by heavy Indebtedness. This fact, now
we are again on the road to prosperity,
renders investments in San Francisco
more valuable in proportion than in any
other city.
We have just gone through general de-
preston which commenced in 1891. and it
must be said to the credit of California,
and particularly of San Francisco, that
both City and State came out of the panic
better than any other State or city in the
Union, and was but slightly affected by
the financial pressure. Real estate was
injured less than any other class of securi-
ties, and compulsory sales were fewer here
than in prominent Eastern cities. 1t is
now a positive fact that the real estate
market is rapidly improving throughout
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-12-25

deposits will necessarily induce many to
invest In income-paying properties that
will net the investor from to 7 per cent
on his purchase. The yearly settlements,
which will be squared off by the first OF
the year, will remove the cause of the de-
preston which prevailed during the past
six months and much money will be freed
from commercial demands. for the profi.a-
bic employment of which real estate offers
the best choice of investments.
Another feature of the market which is
sure indication of permanent improve
ment is the demand for residence prop
erty OF medium price, unerringly estab-
fishing the fact that many who year
ago could not afford to take any money
from their business feel now that they can
safely do so.
Indeed, for the year 1896 it may be safe
ly predicted that many small investors
will be found for properties ranging from
$5Oo0to $4,000 and it is just this class of
buyers who give buoyancy to the real
estate market. 1t is equally certain that
capitalists will continue to be large buyers
because of the assurance that such in
vestments will pay larger interest than
any other that could be selected.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-12-25

steamship communication with every
portion of the earth, with the continued
expansion of vast commercial, manu-
featuring and mining interests, with all
these favoring factors to solve the problem
OF success, what can prevent the City from
entering upon "a career of grandeur eclips-
ing all past achievements? Upon the
people of San Francisco depends the re-
alization of their glorious possibilities.
Upon them depends the task of spreading
abroad correct knowledge OF this City's
advantages, of increasing The same in
every way possible. of manifesting in
dividually and collectively that pub
lic-spiritedness which attracts and ad-
vances, and of exemplifyins in all
their courses a resolute belief in the
fact that the growth of the City is con-
ducive to the welfare of all. There are
various projects which, if carried out
could not fail in securing desirable
results. one of which is the issuing
of five millions OF bonds, the money
realized from the sale of these bonds
to be expended III perfecting the
drainage system, identifying the public
parks and building boulevards and recon-
structing, wherever needed, the streets
and sidewalks, paying out for perma-
nent Improvements instead of collecting
the money by taxing the people, and
thereby. promoting the public convenience

the broad Pacific, and hence must forever
remain one of the first maritime cities in
the world.
1t is the nerve and center of the great
State of which it is the metropolis; it is
the seat of vast accumulated wealth; no
city in the United States offers a more safe
or broader field for conservative invest
ment OF capital in real estate.
do not hesitate to advance the prophecy
that if good judgment is exercised in the
purchase of improved or unimproved
realty in either the business or residence
portion of the City during the next
decade the advance on the one and the in
come on the other will yield profit in
ratio greater than similar live stments in
any of the more conservative cities of the
Union.
San Francisco occupies a unique stu
alton and is certain of great future if she
is true to herself. She commands the
great Pacific and here on the western verge
OF the continent We hope to rear another
acropolis and should in the near future
