STOP THAT COUGH.

A COUGH MEDICINE THAT ALWAYS CURES
 PERMANENTLY.
 To stop cough in any other way than to check the secretions is as foolish as it is harmful. The true cough medicine is the one that cures the congested membranes, and thus stops the discharges, when the cough ceases of its own accord.
 The cough medicine that has been found always reliable to remove the cause, and thus stop the cough, is Peru na. It con- tains no opium or narcotic of any kind, and is a sure cure for all kinds of cough. Pe-ru-na operates directly to heal the con- gested or infi amed mucous membranes of the air passages and lungs. A teaspoonful before each meal and at bedtime will cure winter cough permanently and quickly. I've ounces of rock caudy added to one bottle of Pe-ru-n na and taken as above is the best treatment in existence for a com mon cough, the cough of consumption and chronic bronchitis, according to the testi- mony of the thousands Of patients scattered ali over tue length and breadth of the United States.
 A treatise on coughs, colds, chronic ca- tarrh, consumption, bronchitis, la grippe and pleurisy will be sent free to any ad- dress by the Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing company, Columbus, o.

nobody could keep Duke until Alkali Al
got hold OF him and took him out TO

when went for the Photographic he
thought he ought to have q hundred
dollars @ dozen for them. Somebody
had told him about the dog In the mean
time"
Some people might wonder why
great, ferocious bloodhound lie cowed by
Alkali AL. He is little man, with
pleasant face, hands and feet o society
belle would envy, and mild blue eye.
But Alkali Al lie no ordinary man. There
lie a latent force displayed in every
gesture, every movement OF limb or
body, and even in the look OF his eye or
the tone OF his voice. Aroused he

Alkali AL is one OF those picturesque
men indigenous to tbs western half Of
America, rover OF the plains in the
early days. His long, brown. curly hair
falls ovsr his square. straight shoulders
almost TO HE waist. He wears tine
moustache and imperial to match and
would be called handsome anywhere.
Alkali City Ia not the pleasantest
place In the world to live in. but Alkali
AL has lived there eight years and likes
il. A person might drive through the
heart OF the city and not even know be

put in mind Of the poem commencing,
1.-THE ground was all covered with snow
one day." etc. All the difference lie the
ground here is all covered with alkali.
Alkali Al bought COW one time for
his menagerie, but the cow soon became
blind. All says 1t was the real. genuine
snow blindness. He sold the cow 1t
was taken away, and afterwards recov-
cred its eyesight.
One OF the guests at the Hotel de Al

catching cold until finally he kicked be-
cause he couldn't have FIRE In his

A STEADY drinker wouldn't Be apt to
appreciate the waiting room In the
Hotel de Alkali City. The bar stands
at one end, and be hind the array oil
bottles and glasses thu walls are hung
thick with snake skins of every descrip-
ton, some stuffed and coiled around
bottles and glasses in life.like form.
Across the room live snakes are kept,
a nest OF crawling, equirming reptiles,
gliding in and out among the piles Of
rock and sand or lying dormant in coils
in the corners. White rats. horned

monotony OF the collection and make q

The Hotel de Alkali City contains four

wife occupy one room, Duke has an
other, the snakes occupy quarters in til Z

Owing to the closenoss OF Mexico to
the United States, and particularly our
part Of 1t, il appears odd that not moro
people having their nationality in that
country have strsyed into Southern
California. They do not aeem to be G
people who banker after new pastures,
however. They would find themselves
surrounded by people speaking their
own language, and find themselves in
the midst of familiar customs, but upon
the pages Of the great register OF voters
OF this county there appear only about
200 who were born over the line. Far
away Sweden, sunny France, beautiful
Switzerland and Austria have each sent
more homo seekers to va than our
neighboring country of Mexico. Even
Denmark has sont out noarly as many
fair-haired eona and daugh ere as the
land OF Mariana.
There 10 one lend that has always
been q. terra incognits to most OF us.
Iceland. 1t begins nowhere and ends in
the Arctic ocean. Its people are not
our people, and its ways are not our
ways. But from that far away country
ono votor has taken up his residence in
Los Angelica, and no doubt relishes the
change, unlssa like tho Swiss he yesrns
for the Kuhreihen.
THEY ARE AvANT COURIERs.
So the list of queer things might BIO
prolonged. Il would be interesting to
know just what influence brought
former resident OF the Isle OF Mann to
these hospitsble parts, and whether it
was due to a STRAY advertisement of the
Gale of town lote sent out by SONS enter
rrising real estate man, which happened
to fall in his hands. Thore are two or
TIRES Sicilians who have left the land
where they grew lemons and other
things, who arc long way from home.
but have thrown off this citizenship of
their native land for this. British
Guiana has contributed one adult citi-
zen to Southern Californis, and perhRpH
more will follow.
All these people aeem to be the svant
couriers OF larger immigration in the
future, and it is with feelings of pride
that the average lbs Angelica man cons
templates the widespread popularity OF
his section, where ell she world sende
it's representatives..
Out of this Heterogeneous mixture of
enterprising and wids-awske people
many changes will take place in the
texture of the future residents OF Soush-
ern California.
We may not all live to see it, but there
ia no doubt that it will occur.

Boston's Woman Voters.

The prediction that the foreign born
women would be the first to rush to the
polls is one Of the most frequent argu.
ments against woman suffrage. Yet,
after Is years Of school suffrage in Bos-
ton, the Boston Herald says, "It still
remains q conspicuous fact that the reg
istration Of women voters in the wards
where the great bulk Of the foreign pop.
ulation of Boston resides is almost nil. y
On the other hand, al y 10, 900 native
born women register every year and
have practically controlled the election
Of the school board for years past.
