For real blood diseases relief can only
be obtained by using a real blood RENE
dy. So many people who are sufferers
from an obstinate or deep-seated blood
disease make the mistake of taking rem
edies which at best are only tonics and
cannot possibly reach their trouble. 1t
is in Just such cases VIII III osher so-called
blood remedies can 81 reach that
S.S.S has made some o. the most Won
derful cures. Rheumatism is one Of
the most obstinate diseases of the blood,
and there are few remedies which have
any effect whatever upon it.
Mr.. Asa Smith. who resides at Green
castle, Indiana, where he is we'll known,
writes:
"For many years l have suffered from
that terrible disease known as Sciatic
Rheumatism, which the treatment of
many physicians failed to relieve.

Kalamazoo celery is known the world
over. The name is such guarantee Of
quality that it is used for the better
kinds of celery, no matter where it is
raised. 1t may be of interest TO know
that the punches are packed for market
in wooden boxes about the size of a
peach crate, say "a inches long, 10
inches wide and 6 or inches deep. The
bulk of the crop is handled and shipped
by middlemen, who contract for it, or
handle it on commission. 1t is shipped
by express and freight; the latter of
late has become more popular method.
The celery meadows are what might be
called bottom lands, located north and
south of the city. They are surrounded
by hills and divided by the ridge Of
higher ground upon which the city is
built. They are perhaps three miles
long and mile wide. The soil is q
heavy black muck, originally very fer
tile, but it now requires the liberal ap-
plicaiion Of fertilizers and manures.
The latter is furnished chiefly by the
stables of the city when a load of cell
cry is hauled in town, load of manure
is taken back
The meadows or bottom lands, ex

common farming lands, as most people
suppose, but are evidently a peculiar

/ During the winter months the resi-
| dents of the Eastern States make the
best of forbidding conditions and
amuse themselves in various ways by
large expenditure Of energy. They
work hard, but they have sport. They
must be careful to avoid the numer-
Gus dangers with which very cold
weather surrounds them. All of their
efforts at amusement are a struggle
against forbidding and uncongenial
aspect of nature. They simply create
all the pleasure they get; nature, in
stead of helping them, presents a
constant protest against their pleas
ure. During these same months the
visitor in California simply has to sit
down and enjoy more pleasure than
| his most active efforts could have Sc
cured in the Eastern States; and if he
wants to double the pleasure which
mere inactivity affords, he can do so
with the least possible exertion. At
all times he has abundant sunshine in
California, for the rainy days are few
and short, and there is neither snow
nor ice to make him prisoner. Flow
ers bloom increasingly in the garden,
and fresh fruits are always at hand.
Watermelons and strawberries grace
his Christmas dinner.
All along the coast of California the
summers are cold enough to make
wooden clothing comfortable. In the
Eastern States the wretched inhabi-
tant wears the thinnest of clothing
and then suffers from the heat. The
Californian goes camping or strolling
through the woods with no fear of a
drenching, for the California summers
are rainless. The mountain scenery
is of infinite variety and unapproach-
able majesty and beauty. Large and
elegant hotels abound at all the sea-
side resorts. Splendid vineyards and
orchards exist everywhere, and the
most gorgeous wild flowers abound.
All the most beautiful resorts and
wild retreats of California are reached
by the lines of the Southern Pacific
Company. Any of these agents of

According to the Pittsburg Jour
nal, Peter Gruber, the Rattlesnakc
King of Venango county, has made
the most unique costume any man
ever wore. 1t consists of coat, vest,
trousers, hat, shoes, and shirt, and is
made entirely of the skins of rattle
snakes. Seven hundred snakes all
caught and skinned by Gruber dur
ing the past five years, provided the
material for this novel costume. To
preserve the brillianoy and the dex
ibility of the skins in the greatest
possible degree, the snakes were
skinned alive, first being made I'M
conscious by ehloroform. They were
then tanned by method peculiar to
Gruber, and are soft and elastic as
wooden goods. The different articles
for this outfit were made by Oil City
tailors, shoemakers, and hatters, and
the costume is valued at $1,000.

Usage orange hedges and hedges of
